It sounds like those of us interested in meeting over coffee at the Black Sheep Deli at Open Square, in Holyoke, can do so on a weekday, which is great to hear.
Chime in here to let me know if any of these dates work for you:
Friday, June 2
Monday, June 5
Wednesday, June 7
I imagine meeting at about 10:30 am and see if we can hang around until noon or so, maybe grab a sandwich on the way out.
