This was posted a while ago, are you guys still meeting here? I am about to relocate to New Orleans and want to dive into the coffee culture as soon as possible upon arrival so I don't go through withdrawals.

Hey Y'all, i just wanted to touch base with you guys. We've had a couple a meeting already this year and we're planning on having some stuff in the next few weeks. I invite you to check us out on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/groups/224522227565295/ (Bx isn't the easiest page to navigate). I know we've lost some momentum in the past years, and I hope to be able to build it up with input from y'all. SNOB started as a pet project of mine to help build a community of local baristas who were enthusiastic about coffee. when i started the group in 2009 the New Orleans area had a dearth of what i would call passionate baristas, most baristas were just people who had a job at a coffee shop (BINO- Baristas In Name Only). Now that the coffee climate has started to change, I think there is a real chance at things starting to improve. For SNOB to be successful it will take input from everyone. So I invite y'all to check us out on facebook and follow us on twitter @nobaristas or email me at kirk@orleanscoffee.com. We are hoping to have the BGA come down and offer Level 1 Certifaction in the next month or so. So keep up the faith......
