The music was awesome, and those italian sodas sure hit the spot! Don't get discouraged, it's summer and it takes time to build momentum... Stir rocks! :) Friday was great Greg!

And I almost never see anyone under 40 frequenting the local bars. It seems popular bars for the young adults are elsewhere. This makes it challenging to find/meet/build relationships with young adults in Elmwood but it also points to the potential of "The Mix"... if it really caught on it would be "it" in terms of a young adult hangout in Elmwood. THE place to go... which is my heart and vision for it. The people you see on Henderson are on smoke break from the telemarketing firm on the second floor of the old Cue Club Cafe building. We posted a poster right on the wall where they all stand. But you're right there is potential there and I have been thinking about possible approaches. nooc Hey Viv,

Have you thought about 'hanging out' at some of the places where the people you want to come hang out? There is always a whack of people outside the bowling alley on Henderson - I think there is some kind of career class that takes place there... ..there must still be some cool bars in that end of town too? Been awhile since I've frequented them(!) but they probably still exist....how about setting up a music set in the parks - transcona - elmwood et al? or in parking lots like outside of DQ? I'm not talking anything fancy...just a guitar, maybe an amp and a few 'starters' who start the crowd for you... ..just thoughts to hopefully help... Keep on Nooc-ing ! Hey Greg,
