Northampton, MA ACX Meetup – Meetups Everywhere Fall 2023 Edition

post by Alex Liebowitz (alex-liebowitz) · 2023-08-24T06:39:48.640Z · ? · GW · 2 comments

This is the Meetups Everywhere Fall 2023 edition of a meetup that started in the 2018 Meetups Everywhere and is still going strong. At most meetups we get about 5-7 people out of a rotation of 15-20; Meetups Everywhere events tend to get a boost and we get closer to 8-10.

Due to neglect on my part, we haven't had a meetup since the last Meetups Everywhere in May, but I'm planning to pick things up again and aim to have meetups every two weeks or so going forward.

There's no "format" or suggested readings. Although it's not rare for us to touch on ACX articles and related topics, the conversation varies wildly, and you are welcome even if you're the most occasional ACX reader.

This time we're meeting at Packard's (the consensus favorite at the moment is Progression Brewing Co., but they weren't able to take a reservation due to the holiday weekend). We've reserved the Library Room in the back.

We currently communicate via an email list; feel free to email me at alex@alexliebowitz.com to keep up to speed.

Look forward to meeting you!

Hey1 Is anyone attending this from UMass? We can connect and travel together if there is anyone.

(Organizer here.) I'm not aware of anyone so far this time around. But I went to UMass and I know the PVTA Blue 43 bus runs every 30-45 minutes and has stops at both UMass Haigis Mall and at the Academy of Music Theatre in Northampton (less than a 1 minute walk from Packard's). It runs late enough that you could go home on it, too. Took it all the time when I was a student. Schedule here: https://www.pvta.com/schedules/B43.pdf
