After posting of a brief diary over a week ago to test interest in the formation of an Atlanta Daily Kos meetup group, a dozen or so local Kossacks responded. We are proceeding to form a group under the moniker AtlantaKos.
If you live in the Atlanta area and have interest in social interaction with other Kossacks, please join AtlantaKos here. This Yahoo Group has been set up to announce events, facilitate communications, and conduct polls related to meeting locations and dates.
It is the intent to format AtlantaKos as a social group where local Kosaholics can meet, interact, and have fun at various local watering holes and restaurants. However, as the group grows it could well evolve into a forum featuring speakers from the local political, progressive and activist scenes.
More on the flip....
AtlantaKos is not intended to compete or be redundant to other groups, and care will be exercised to ensure that any AtlantKos events scheduled do not conflict with Drinking Liberally meetings or other key events.
A tentative mid to late March launch event for AtlantaKos will be held at Manuel's Tavern in Poncey Highlands, then rotate to other venues throughout the area.
Sign up today, and if you know others in the Atlanta area who would be interested in joining, please forward a link to this diary.
