For those who haven't attended a meeting, please note that we are welcoming and open to seeing new faces, and we hope you join us!  While our announcement usually says 6-9 pm, that is not the case in every meeting, so we will recap how our meetings go so you know what to expect.  :)

NETNPA's reservation time for the event is 6 pm; typically, people arrive between 5:45 pm and 6 pm to get settled and chat, etc.
Between 6 pm and 6:30 pm, we order our meals, get settled, and network.  If we have a business meeting or announcements for NETNPA, those are done before 6:30 pm.  Typically, we want orders placed before 6:30 pm so the speaker can start while the kitchen is doing its magic.

The speaker starts around 6:30 pm.  Depending on the content, the speaker usually lasts +/- 30 minutes. Food is usually served during the presentation (at least that's our hope) or shortly after (this depends on the kitchen).

Usually, most of our presenters' content is done by 7:15 pm, and we are left to finish eating, mingle, and enjoy the rest of our evening.  While our announcements say 6-9pm, that is not a requirement or the actual length of the event.  Usually, the 9pm is just to indicate when we need to leave the restaurant.

Hope this clarifies for those of you who have been on the fence about checking us out.   Hope to see you there.
