[Grovenet] Hello

[Glenn Berkheimer]

I was told about this group by one of my customers that came into our little coffee shop the other day.  My name is Glenn and I own the little espresso coffee shop that has been Forest Grove's 1st drive through espresso shop since 1993, the one that is on Pacific just across from McDonalds and is a little trailer.  Anyway we have just acquired the rights to the old "Oasis Tavern" and are going to expand into it to make it a Coffee Piano Bar.  Right now we only have the drive through but we are working hard to get the Piano Bar ready to open.  We also hope it will be a vinue for the community.  We do not plan to serve any alcoholic beverages so hopefully this will become a place for all families and people of all ages to be able to gather.
I hope to hear from other soon, and I thought the discussion on Van Dykes was very good.  We too see lots of local business lost to big Corps when local was better and I too try to only shop local.  It just makes good sense.
Glenn
