Hey everyone,
We have to change up the meeting location for November since UT decided that all buildings will remain locked during football game weekends. We have decided to hold our meeting in Maryville at the new [Tri Hop Brewery](https://www.trihopbrewery.com/), not only is this a cool location it's also created by one of our sponsors. The brewery opens at noon so we will shift the meeting time to 12-2pm. They don't have food onsite but they are only a block away from Vienna Coffee that has a good selection of breakfast and other items that you can bring back to the brewery. [Check out Vienna Coffee menu here.](https://www.viennacoffeecompany.com/menu2) And there is also a Farmer's Market going on Broadway from 8:30am-11:30am that morning so if you want you could get there early and make a day of it and check out the market before the meeting! The meeting will be discussing the latest news and developments in the EV space and welcoming new people that have discovered us from our recent events. As always we are here to answer your questions about driving electric!
