Down To Earth

The Spokane Green Scene Social is next Thursday at No-Li Brewery

Have you heard of the Cascadia Inland Branch Collaborative yet? They're a non-profit group, made up of professionals working to make Spokane's buildings healthy, efficient, and beautiful. They call themselves "green building nerds by trade, but are interested in linking together with other sustainability groups and like minded individuals in Spokane."

They're hosting an event called "Green Scene Social" at one of the best spots in town, the patio at No-Li Brewery next Thursday, June 20th, between 5-7pm.

From the Cascade Inland Branch Collaborative: Let’s start with the important stuff we’re pitching: Free food, and great local beer. Everything else is a bonus at that point right?

Some call that friendly bribery, we call it the baseline of a great networking event. The bonus is just as good: An opportunity to meet and mingle with the other groups in Spokane working to make our area more sustainable and resilient.

The funny thing is- there are a lot of us doing good work. We think that’s awesome. The sad thing is- We all don’t nearly cross paths as much as we should. Excuse our French, but we think that's a downright shame.

Lofty buzzwords like “synergy”, “cross-pollination” and “ideation” could be used here. But we’ll refrain. Instead, we’d just like YOU to join us for a beer and some grub, and maybe the opportunity to chat about what we’re all up, where we’re all going, and how we might help each other make Spokane better.

It seems like a great opportunity to see how we can all help each other. Plus, free food, local beer, and good company. What's not to like?
