I spoke with Chris Shaeffer today. He and three others from Berkshire and Columbia Counties are starting up a local investor group in the Berkshire-Taconic region, based on the
LION model. He sent us a copy of their
organizational outline. he said they are strting up with a couple of informational meetings, one in Great Barrington and one in Hudson or there-abouts and perhaps one in Pittsfield and they plan to follow up with a couple of meetings where investment opportunities are presented. I think there will be many opportunities for collaboration between local investors there and here.
