Patsy Cline DESCRIPTION:Show Times\nFebruary 7 – March 8\, 2020\nWed-Sun @ 7 pm\nSat & Sun @ 2 pm\nBased on a true story. \nAlways…Patsy Cline is a delightful musical about friendship\, country music and a brilliant artist who left us all too soon. More than a tribute to the legendary country singer who died tragically at age 30 in a plane crash in 1963\, Always…Patsy Cline is a true story about Cline’s friendship with a fan from Houston named Louise Seger\, who befriended the star in a Texas honky-tonk in 1961\, and continued a correspondence with Cline until her death. \nThe musical play\, complete with down home country humor\, poignant tales of life on the road and even some audience participation\, includes many of Patsy’s unforgettable hits such as Crazy\, I Fall to Pieces\, Sweet Dreams and Walking After Midnight — 27 songs in all!  The show’s title was inspired by Cline’s letters to Seger\, which were consistently signed “Love ALWAYS… Patsy Cline.” \nCreated and originally directed by Ted Swindley\nDirected by Kevin Harris\nMusical Direction by Wendy Feaver\nScenic Design by David Linfield URL:https://slochamber.org/event/slo-rep-presents-always-patsy-cline/ LOCATION:San Luis Obispo Repertory Theatre\, 888 Morro St.\, San Luis Obispo\, CA\, 93401\, United States CATEGORIES:Community Events END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200227T073000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200227T090000 DTSTAMP:20260624T193728 CREATED:20191119T214556Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200228T032429Z UID:72045-1582788600-1582794000@slochamber.org SUMMARY:Good Morning SLO | February 2020 DESCRIPTION:Your community newspaper brought to life. \nGood Morning SLO is our platform for sharing ideas\, news and inspiration.

Since the episodes began airing\, there have been new search warrants and renewed media attention – as well as hordes of hooked listeners. We asked him to tell us about the journey\, how it started and where it’s going next. \n\nSPECIAL SERIES | HOMELESSNESS AT HOME \nContinuing our multi-part series on homelessness is CAPSLO Deputy Director Grace McIntosh\, who will put a face on the issue locally. She’ll share insights on the trends\, fastest-growing populations and biggest challenges the CAPSLO team sees at 40 Prado\, as well as the homeless center’s successes in the year since it opened. \n\nA PEEK BEHIND THE PEARLY GATES OF ANGEL INVESTING \nWhile most of us are familiar with angel investing\, the details can seem a bit ethereal. But it’s crucial in funding local start-ups\, often through competitions such as April’s AngelCon. Rolando Locci\, who manages the AngelCon investing group\, will provide a look at how it works and dispel some common myths. \n\nHACKING THE FUTURE \n300 students. 36 hours of non-stop hacking. So what exactly is it all about? We asked Selynna Sun\, who founded the SLO Hacks hackathon\, to share what these events do for participants – and the wider community – as well as her experience founding the local hackathon and traveling the world to participate in similar events. \n\nOFFICE SPACE | TPS REPORTS EDITION \nBusiness expansion is a key driver of economic activity\, which means that space for business to expand is a key factor\, too. We wanted to get a pulse on the office and industrial market in SLO County\, so we turned to Steve McCarty of McCarty Davis Commercial Real Estate to give us the scoop. \n\n10o YEARS OF GETTING OUT THE VOTE \n2020 marks 100 years since women first won the right to vote\, thanks in large measure to the League of Women Voters\, which is also celebrating its centennial. We asked centennial committee co-chair Juliane McAdam to reflect not just on that momentous event but also the hard work that followed to expand that right. \n\n \nWHEN THE ‘STANGS COME MARCHING IN \nNo question the hundred-year-old Cal Poly Mustang Band is beloved at home and on the road — and at Good Morning SLO of course. A contingent of the 220-member band will send us off with the post-game tune “Ride High” followed by an enthusiastic “Yay Poly.” \nThank you to our 2020 Good Morning SLO Annual Sponsors:​\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n  \nThank you to our caterer: URL:https://slochamber.org/event/good-morning-slo-february-2020/ LOCATION:Grace Central Coast\, 1350 Osos St.\, San Luis Obispo\, CA\, 93401\, United States CATEGORIES:Chamber Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://eadn-wc03-5926357.nxedge.io/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/Good-Morning-SLO_680.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200227T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200227T200000 DTSTAMP:20260624T193728 CREATED:20200224T233439Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200224T233439Z UID:75329-1582826400-1582833600@slochamber.org SUMMARY:Monterey Bay Community Power hosts Community Choice Energy for the Central Coast DESCRIPTION: URL:https://slochamber.org/event/monterey-bay-community-power-hosts-community-choice-energy-for-the-central-coast-2/ LOCATION:San Luis Obispo City Hall\, 990 Palm\, San Luis Obispo\, CA\, 93401 CATEGORIES:Community Events END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200227T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200227T233000 DTSTAMP:20260624T193728 CREATED:20191115T214841Z LAST-MODIFIED:20191115T214841Z UID:71893-1582833600-1582846200@slochamber.org SUMMARY:Fremont Presents: Matoma & Two Friends DESCRIPTION:Matoma & Two Friends will be live in downtown SLO at the Fremont Theater on Thursday\, February 27!\nAbout this Event \nDoor Time- 8:00 PM\nAll Ages \nTickets can be purchased at:\nBoo Boo Records\n978 Monterey St • SLO\nMon-Wed 10-8\, Thurs-Sat 10-9\, Sun 11-6 URL:https://slochamber.org/event/fremont-presents-matoma-two-friends/ LOCATION:Fremont Theater\, 1035 Monterey St\, SLO CATEGORIES:Community Events END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200227T210000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200227T210000 DTSTAMP:20260624T193728 CREATED:20200130T193631Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200130T193631Z UID:74606-1582837200-1582837200@slochamber.org SUMMARY:Luna Lounge Presents: SLARK MOAN (INDIE ROCK) DESCRIPTION:LUNA LOUNGE WITH SLARK MOAN (INDIE ROCK)\nFebruary 27\, 2020\nSlark Moan \nIndie Rock \n9:00p \nSlark Moan\, Nashville based songwriter Mark Sloan’s alter ego\, creates rock and roll as a coping mechanism.\nYou could call it high tech\, or low fi\, but none of that really matters to Moan.\nHis songs embrace human frailty while rejecting the mythical ideal self so prevalent in modern society\, all in a attempt to connect the listener to our forgotten yet intrinsic vulnerability.
