We Believe In...
... Neutral Ground.
Where all opinions are valued-- “A place where people can be sociable, only when they have
protection from each other”. ~ Richard Senate
... In Temper and Tenor.
A place that is upbeat, and it is cheerful-- “The purpose is to enjoy the company of one’s fellow
human beings and to delight in their novel character - not to wallow in pity over misfortunes”.
~ Ray Oldenburg
... Robust Conversation.
The joy of association and affiliation-- “Socializing rather than drinking is clearly most peoples main
occupation”. ~ Tibor Scitovsky
A place that fosters hand shaking and backslapping, smiles and bright eyes are gateways to
connectivity and dialogue.
The game is the conversation.
... The Regulars.
Every regular was once a newcomer. “A place where everyone knows your name”. ~ Cheers
A lone stranger is most apt to become a regular-- “Once you’ve been in a few times you can go
whenever you like”. ~ An observer
A regular is a member in good and full standing, a part of the group that makes the place.
... A Home Away From Home.
A place where warmth, respect and the familiar is vital-- “A place where you are free to be free, you
can be you and they can be them and we can be us.” ~ Jim
... Will You?
