Location:
Holiday in Select in beautiful downtown St. Louis. (This would be a great place, but we are also looking at the City Museum, the Wash U social networking center for entrepreneurs [http://chasethelink.com/349], and another great site downtown. We are looking for wifi, bathrooms, and ideally, the ability to bring in beer, any ideas?)
Time:
Dec 13th, 2008 10-5pm
-We are planning to hit lunch from noon till 1:30 (downtown STL is swamped with wonderful places to eat). This is a social event, we want to get people together, and facilitate some great ideas.
