Where do you have your team meetings?

[wadesgirl]

We are no longer able to use our current place for our meetings. We are all supposed to come up with ideas on where we can meet at next year. Our meetings are on a Saturday morning which makes a lot of resturants out. I also checked our local library and they have a policy about their meeting rooms not being a "permanant" meeting space. Just thought I would see where you all have your meetings.

we meet in my directors basement, we usually have about 15ish and it seems to work fine.

We have ours in an office. I am starting my own meetings next year (with a sister director) and we will probably have them at one of our houses.

We have our meetings at our director's house. Eventually, when I'm a director (gotta have goals, right?), we'll have them at my house. :)

My director recently checked out a meeting room at the local REI. She held the National Meeting Day meeting there, and I think she's thinking of doing it going forward as well.

we have had our meetings:
In a meeting room at a resteraunt
In an apartment complex party room
In a meeting room where someone worked
Churches


ETA: Ours are the 2nd Monday of every month.

We used to use a restaraunt that was closed during the hours of our meeting. Recently we have moved over to doing them at my directors home which still works nicely. We do them on weeknights though, we alternate the first Monday and the first Tuesday of each month. I like that. I work full time so this leaves my weekends free for shows.

We do our meetings at my house on Thursday night. We used to do Saturday morning but switched last year to the week night. I have done some meetings at a local coffee shop (that has since closed - and I still have gift cards from there:grumpy:). That worked okay but it's so much easier for me to have it here - I don't have to lug anything and if someone wants to check out a particular product or wants something we are right here.

What's an REI?

My team is growing and I need a place other than my home to hold meetings. The local bank lets me rent for $50 but it also can't be used on a permanent basis.

REI is a sporting goods store.

Many Panera Bread locations also have free meeting rooms. I know a local director who uses the room there.

Might want to try your local fire house or community center.

We meet at one of the Cluster members' homes. She is about halfway between everyone so that works well. My HD has promoted one Director and the FD has 5 and just waiting for them to qualify...hopefully by Dec 1st!
