Cohousing-L Mailing List: Bostonians: Talk cooperative community tonight in Quincy (near the T)

[Raines Cohen (rc3-coho-L]

At yesterday's long-awaited Cohousing New England MeetUp brunch in
Cambridge (MA), we had a number of great discussions, but many couldn't
make it or had to run off for community open houses.

One longtime area cohousing dreamer, Paul Sullivan, was particularly
chomping at the bit to build community, either with existing neighbors
where he lives (what we sometimes call "organic" or "retrofit" cohousing,
in alignment with Transition Town ideas about neighborhood organizing) or
creating something new, so we're throwing together another gathering
tonight not far from his home, near North Quincy T, at Panera Bread on
Hancock Street, from 7-9 PM or so.

Come on down and join the conversation. Use this as an opportunity to meet
other cohousing seekers and group-house builders in the area, learn about
established communities (we'll share some highlight's of Saturday's
sold-out regional summit and the national movement), talk about what it
takes to build community wherever you live, and how to use this MeetUp
group to find each other and build community.

Your Cohousing Coaches, Betsy and Raines (visiting from Berkeley (CA)
cohousing), will be there, but ultimately your next steps and what you get
from this, are up to you.
