[Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu Hour - Conference room.

2017-01-17 Thread Phil N 
Hi all,
I've recently been going down to Broadway Coffeehouse on occasion, for
those who may not know this is where we hold Ubuntu meetings in Salem
Oregon. While at Broadway Coffeehouse, I've noticed it's been getting a bit
packed lately, so I thought it best for this coming Friday's meeting to
request one of their free conference rooms located on the second floor.

We have not yet received approval for a conference room, however should we
get approved, I'll let everyone know what the room location and number is.
Until then, or in the event we don't get approval, we'll meet at the two
tables in front of fireplace.

This of course is dependent on weather conditions, which so far looks like
lots of rain... so situation normal for Salem. ;-)
Therefore meeting should take place as regularly scheduled for this Friday,
January 20th from 6:00pm to 7:00pm at Broadway Coffeehouse in Salem
Oregon.  Broadway Coffeehouse is located at 1300 Broadway St NE, Suite 100,
Salem, OR 97301.  With plenty of parking in back, off of 5th street.

Thanks everyone,
Phil. N

Hi Phil N,
Thanks for the info. We decided to rent a car as it gives us a bit more
freedom if we decide to go for a meal. So we will be there, the only thing
that will prevent it is the weather but so far it's warm and clear down
here.

Hi Che, it would be great if you could make a meeting.  I found a couple of
connecting public transportation systems below that connect to Corvallis.
If ya both can make it to Salem air port, or the Amtrak / bus station hub,
I'd be glad to give you a ride to/from meeting. I have room for four
passengers, plus their tech bundle.

Email me beforehand to make sure I'm able to make the meeting myself.

*Linn-Benton Loop:*
Connecting Corvallis, Albany (including Amtrak Station), Oregon State
University, and Linn-Benton Community College.
Website: https://www.cityofalbany.net/departments/public-works/transp
ortation/linn-benton-loop
Phone:   541-917-7667 <%28541%29%20917-7667>

*North by Northwest Connector:*
Coordinated regional transit connecting the Willamette Valley and coast.
Looks like they also go up to Portland by way of; Albany, Corvallis,
Newport, Lincoln City & Tillamook.

Ciao for now
