Well, this takes me back to my days at Groupaya. I sent some information to Eugene, who asked me to post it on the water cooler. At Groupaya, it took me . . . oh, maybe 6 – 8 months . . . to get the hang of posting everything on the wiki instead of sending it via private correspondence.
Anyway, here’s the scoop: Someone has created a spreadsheet of meeting locations, and it might be a good resource. I’ll copy the message and link below.

Subject: RE: [sfba_members] Bay Area retreat locations
Hi All
This seems to be a common thread so I created a google doc with info about meeting spaces around the bay and in SoCal. There are tabs for each sheet listing (Free Locations, SF Locations, Non-SF Bay Area Locations, SocCal).
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Asn-1l8Ty3lsdHViR1FmYTJ1Q3RTNUdMcFE2NFc1WEE
A couple important notes:
1 – Itโs a publicly viewable doc AND editable. If you feel so moved and want to add to or revise this spreadsheet feel free to. In fact, please add more useful info that you find out or know about these spaces โ pay it forward. ๐
2 โ Disclaimer: This is a document is an online open-content collaborative list; that is, a voluntary association of individuals and groups working to develop a common resource of human knowledge. This allows anyone with an Internet connection to alter its content. Please be advised that nothing found here has necessarily been reviewed by people with the expertise required to provide you with complete, accurate or reliable information. That is not to say that you will not find valuable and accurate information, however, I cannot guarantee the validity of the information found here.
3 โ If you have little experience or donโt know how to navigate a google spreadsheets to get to the info, please ask your friend, son, daughter, mom, co-worker, or anyone else that will know how. While I like to be helpful, I donโt have the time to field those questions.
4 โ Donโt email or call me about any info on this sheet either โ sorry. IF you have a question about any of these spaces, contact them AND/or maybe use the YNPN community to help you out.
Thanks,
I hope this works out and becomes a great community resource.

@dana, I have a list as well, which I’d be happy to share. It’s messy, but it’s got some different information than the spreadsheet above. Just let me know. That goes for anyone else as well.
Would be even cooler if someone were compelled to combine the two lists!

Well, there you have it. Eugene was right again.

This should be the unstated fourth ground rule.
