There are several kinds of future events.
In 2008, meetings are more approximately quarterly than in previous years. All quarterly meetings are held at Saint Agnes Baking Co. at 644 Olive St., just north of University and just east of I-35E in St. Paul. (You can look here for directions.)
All dates are Saturdays, and all times are 10:30 a.m. until 1 p.m.
There are currently three monthly meetings on the schedule. (You can volunteer to be a convener for your own montly meeting at a time and place convenient for you. Just let me know if you want to do it.)
The Black Dog Slice meets on the first Wednesday of the month (barring the occassional holiday). The meetings run from 7 p.m. until 9 p.m. (or until we run out of things to talk about). The Black Dog Coffee and Wine bar is at 308 Prince Street, in downtown Saint Paul (near the site of the Saint Paul Farmers’ Market).

No field trips are currently being planned at this time.
There is one special event being planned for 2008, the first SPBC picnic. This will be held Sunday, August 10, at Crosby Farm Park in St. Paul. Details are still being settled (start time, ending time, etc.).
Volunteers for the picnic committee are welcome. Just e-mail me to be added to the volunteer list.
There are no other definite plans for any special events for 2008 at this time. However, the response to the meeting with Slow Food Minnesota was so positive that they would like to do it again in 2008. That requires more planning than what Klecko can count on at this time, so this event is a definite maybe.
