Scouting in Marysville and Everett: From great to amazing workshop locations!

Our next stops were in Lake Stevens where we first met with Don, who owns the local Gameworks. Don showed us his back room, which is set up with tables and chairs and could potentially host workshops. Then we checked-out the Buzz Inn: It's huge! Amber was super friendly and showed us the private room there — another great spot.

We continued the journey to visit the Living Room Coffee House in Marysville. WOW! First, this is another cafe with a purpose, managed by a church and operated by volunteers. The place is an actual old church with many different rooms for groups — each room with its own style and vibe. We talked to Amanda, who’s also a personal coach, and shared our passion for education and helping the community via skills development. We're all very excited about this place and can't wait to bring students there!

Next on the list was Wander. It's smaller but with plenty of room and light —  another fantastic place for students to come together for the workshops.

On our way back to Everett, we stopped at Scuttlebutt, Bluewater, The Loft, and Grand Avenue Marketplace. Great potential with these locations as well.

All in all, it was a wonderful scouting day, full of discoveries and unexpected meetings with remarkable people.

It's going to be hard to wait for the first cohort to start on October 22!
