<p>Regarding what Susan said, if we present it to UHMC and can tie it into education, UHMC is agreeable from my past experiences. </p>
<p>I was Pres. of Toastmasters and we had to move from an old space. One call to Clyde, framing the goal properly, he put me in touch with the speech teacher and we had a space that is still being used weekly to this day. UHMC students are often vistors to the meeting so it benefits everyone.</p>

<p>Hi everyone, </p>
<p>Several of us who have expressed an interest in Maui co-working are getting together on Thursday, Oct. 13 to brainstorm ideas, gather input, and explore possibilities. While the event is taking place in Kihei, and MRTC is hosting, I want to stress that our goal is to come up with a coordinated set of spaces in different parts of the island.

<p>Hi everyone, </p>
<p>Several of us who have expressed an interest in Maui co-working are getting together on Thursday, Oct. 13 to brainstorm ideas, gather input, and explore possibilities. While the event is taking place in Kihei, and MRTC is hosting, I want to stress that our goal is to come up with a coordinated set of spaces in different parts of the island. Organizations with potential space in Kahului, up-country, and Lahaina are participating in the discussion. </p>
<p>Even if you're not ready to sign up for space at this point, if co-working is something that intrigues you I'll encourage you to come out and join the discussion. We're just getting started, and figuring out where the demand is and what it looks like is an important part of moving forward. </p>

<p>Doug - Your bit.ly link includes your unique guest ID, so most people following that link are RSVP'ing as if they are you. </p>
<p>You need to remove the last bit: &gid=03D8AAPMT7N2NE3T6EPA5VPGETDLXQ</p>

<p>Hey Jerry & Keith - You can post the event in the <a href="http://www.techhui.com/events" target="_blank">TechHui Event Calendar</a> to create more visibility and turn off RSVP to avoid people RSVPing in multiple places. Using the calendar here has the significant advantage of helping to avoid conflicts with other Hawaii tech events. Also, that makes it easier for us to help by featuring it, linking it in the newsletter, etc. Aloha, Mika.<br></br> <br></br> <cite>Jerry Isdale…</cite></p>
