Organizational Meeting

In keeping with our new schedule, this Sunday’s meeting on the 30th will not be a regular discussion. As it will be the fifth Sunday in the month we’ve decided to make it an organizational meeting instead.

Cofound began about 20 months ago and has maintained a consistent following ever since. We’ve gone through many transformations but have settled into a comfortable routine of stimulating talk and companionship.

But what lies ahead? Cofound was established in reaction to the powerful social and political trends of our day. The issues are as pressing as ever and we can mark little “progress” in changing anything. But was that ever our goal? Or was it primarily to arrive at ideas and possibilities? And that we have done.

Join us this Sunday, 3 PM at the City Café for casual talk along with the imagining and planning of our next efforts. And stay tuned for our next update about the August 6th discussion.
