    Copia is positioned really well to grow into an influential constant over time. Curious? Come to one of the future meetings. Check the "Events" section of the HOBN site for Copia meetings as locations and times will change from week to week to "meet people where they are".

    Well done, Alanna and David, and thanks again for getting Copia off the ground!

    Please note that we have a new welcome procedure in place:

    We still have the two normal breakfast options, the $7.50 or the $9.50 deal, plus tax. The $7.50 keeps to be the minimum purchase in support of our venue hosts. The only thing that changes is that there will be two places for us to pay for our breakfast depending on what we'd like to have:

    For the $7.50 option, with regular coffee or your choice of teas, paid by cash only:

    If you want the $7.50 deal ($8.50 incl. HST) with a regular coffee or your choice of tea, please go directly upstairs where Bonnie, our first volunteer cashier, will take your cash and will hand you a cup for your beverage. Coffee, a selection of teas and breakfast items will be set up in the meeting area. Receipts will also be available for you when you check in with Bonnie. Once you’ve paid for your breakfast you may go in and grab your seat and breakfast.

    For everything else, e.g. the $7.50 breakfast with specialty coffees/teas, the $9.50 deal, or if you wish to pay with your credit card:

    Please go directly to the counter downstairs where you will be ordering and receiving your breakfast. Once you have your breakfast in your hands, please come upstairs to our meeting area and join the crowd.

    With this new process we hope for a smoother and faster process of purchasing breakfast and for the meeting to start in a timely fashion, which translates in to more time for networking afterwards!!!

    Doors to the Buzz open at 7:00am, the meeting will start at 7:15am.

    Please note: It will no longer be possible for attendees to first go upstairs, grab a seat and then go back down to purchase breakfast. Buying breakfast will be the first thing we all do, and then we will be granted access to the meeting space.

    Here's to another fun and effective HOBN meeting.

    Stay safe, dry and warm today!
