Hey everyone! Just want to remind you to RSVP because Seven Virtues is not that big of a coffee shop and we want to know how many of us to make room for. Also, you may want to show up a few minutes early so you don't miss any of the meeting standing in line waiting for your beverage or snack. See you there!
