[Hidden-tech] thx for coming to holiday social - next event January 12

[Jon Reed]

Greetings Hidden Tech folks!

On behalf of the board, I wanted to thank all of 
you who made it out to our holiday social at 
Bishop's on December 4th. It was inspiring to see 
so many of you (40+) out to share a bit of 
holiday spirit, Hidden Tech style. I must say I'm 
impressed by how many of you are faring through 
this economy so well, and for those like me whose 
businesses have been more impacted, I tip my hat 
to your continued resolve. I know my business is 
much stronger thanks to the connections I continue to make through all of you.

Looking ahead, I wanted to issue a quick "save 
the date" for a January social at The Yellow Sofa 
Café and Card shop in Downtown Northampton. This 
"deep winter social" will take place on Monday, 
January 12 from 6 to 8pm. The Yellow Sofa is very 
Hidden Tech friendly, with strong coffee and WiFi 
ready for us. Formal announcements of this event 
will be arriving soon, so mark your calendar.

We are currently finalizing our programming 
schedule for the spring, so you can expect more 
on our upcoming programs in January.

As the holidays approach, I'd like to thank all 
of you for making my email inbox much more 
interesting through this discussion list, and for 
all you have collectively done to make the valley 
a better place for those of us who want to do 
business on our own (virtual) terms. This is not 
always an easy thing to accomplish, but the comradery is always appreciated!

I look forward to seeing you in January and beyond.

Jon Reed, Hidden Tech Board
