Hi Everyone,

I am a new post-doc here at Mayo coming from Upstate NY that started not to long ago. I am looking to make some new friends Is anyone interest4ed in doing a weekly or monthly get together of people who work at Mayo that are not originally from Minnesota? (People from Minnesota of course you are welcome to hang too!!!!!!)

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Just Want to Talk group.

Let's meet again January 3rd, same place, same time. 5:00pm. FYI, I can't get a table until half the group shows up, so I'll sit at the coffee table on the left side as soon as you walk in. Very easy to find me, no idea what I look like, not a problem, look for a black ice hockey puck on the table, I guarantee I'm the only one there with a hockey puck on the table. Also to help with better communication please join us on WhatsApp and introduce yourself since we only see a phone number without a name most of the time.

Friday, Jan 10 @ 5pm at Foragers - Meet at coffee table left side as soon as you walk in.
Saturday, Jan 18 @ 5pm @ Cameo at the Castle https://cameoatthecastle.com/ - Happy hour ends at 6pm

Welcome James! Yes we are to meet Saturday, Jan 4 @ 5pm at Foragers – Meet at coffee table left side as soon as you walk in.
If anyone comes in late, look for us at a table that has a ice hockey puck on the table, I am sure we are the only one that has one 😉 You can also join our whatsapp group (see link above to join).
