    Also, Kathy, what's the address?  That might help inspire some ideas
    for names.

The Base Note

I love your ideas, everybody. Keep them coming!

The coffeehouse will be in the basement of the UU church, located
at 66 Elm Street in Gardner.

And I'll definitely post the opening date in here. It's good to
hear your interest! This is something I'm really excited and
nervous about....

    Under the Elm?

    Fresh Ground (for the coffee, for the location, for the basementness)

    G'day,
     I wondered at first about 'Nightmare on ELm Street' but I reckon that
    won't bring in the customers..... 8-)

    Gardner is known as "Chair City" because of its furniture
    production, and it seems to be the home of many people of
    French Canadian descent.  So how about "Musical Chairs" or
    "Le Chair" or "Le Chairs?"  That's about the extent of my
    French, unfortunately, but I think that something with a
    French flair would be good.

Well Virginia, I guess you and I ought to take a French class
together! Who would have ever guessed that Le Chairs indicated
Fleshpot?!?   ;-)  ;-)  ;-)

Kathy

    G'day,
    
     French for chair is La chaise. as in 'chaise longe' (a chair for
    lounging in)
    
    perhaps 'the saddle' would be right = a chair for the westerners?
    
    the geographical name for a saddle is 'col' maybe 'col's cafe'?
    
    maybe 'Chaise sportive'
    
    
    or even Chay's

    FLESHPOTS?!  I love it, I love it - I can just see hoards of
    people converging on the Unitarian Church from all sides...! (:-))
    
    What I really had in mind was Le Chair as in Le Car and Le Bag,
    as in the old Renault ads, but who will believe mme now?
    
    I'll try to redeem myself with ...folkLure...folkCellar...folkUS
    ...and coffeeSpot  (or Java Spot.)  Now, how's that for innocuous?
    
    I also like The Magic Moon.  You could design and use such a moon
    or moons for interior and /or exterior decorations.
    
    Virginia
    

    I really like the Folkcellar (suggested 2 back, I think)
    
    Also, something simple like:  The Elm St. Coffee House
    Then people will know where it is!
    
    Justine

I've got to admit, I thought .8's suggestion was great, 'specially considering
this community!

    All right, Kathy, here's what my unconscious came up with:
    
    	Underground Coffeehouse
    
    	Moon Palace (actually the title of a novel by Paul Auster, which I
    		     will soon read, because it is finally in paperback)
    	
    	Xanadu ("In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
    		 A stately pleasure dome decree,
    		 Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
    		 Through caverns measureless to man,
    		 Down to a sunless sea."
    
    Does the winner get a free cup of coffee?

    How about..."Twin Peaks" or "Damn Fine Cuppa Joe".
    
    
    
    Guess you have to be a Twin Peaks fan to really 
    appreciate those names, sorry...

Thanks for all your suggestions. There were lots of good ones.
The coffeehouse committee has decided on the name, and I'm happy
to announce that the winner is a Womannoter.

The name is:



The Fresh Ground Coffeehouse, suggested by Jody Bobbitt.

See in Gardner on Saturday, January 26th, Jody!

Kathy

If anyone would like to be on the mailing list for the Fresh
Ground, send e-mail to me at NM%EGYPT::MAXHAM.

    Jody,
     
    Congratulations!  "The Fresh Ground Coffeehouse" is a great
    name - apt, original, memorable; simple, yet multi-leveled.
    It also sounds nice and is easily spoken.  I wish I'd thought
    of it! :-)
    
    Virginia
    
    
    
    

    *blush* thanks.
    
    I just figgered it might fit!  Besides, no other UU coffeehouse should
    suffer the fate of the one at the First Parish in Cambridge.....
    "The Nameless Coffeehouse" indeed!
    
    -Jody
    

Well, The Fresh Ground Coffeehouse has had two successful performances
to date (Catie Curtis in January, and Justina & Joyce this past
Saturday). We've had good turnouts, and we've had a lot of fun!

Justine Sullivan (who has been doing a wonderful job running the sound!)
suggested that we have some coffee mugs done up with a design and "The Fresh
Ground Coffeehouse" on them. I thought that sounded like an excellent
idea, but don't have any idea what to do to find out about doing that.
Do any of you have any leads on suppliers for me? If you've done this
type of thing before, I'd appreciate hearing what you found works
particularly well or what you'd avoid the next time. Also, I'm assuming
that this type of thing would be silk-screened. Are there other processes
that could be used as well? 

Thanks for any information you can give me.

Kathy
