CX Nationals

December 22nd, 2006 · 1 Comment

We had the amazing opportunity to attend this years CX Nationals in Providence RI.  Luckily the weather cooperated and we saw sun the whole time.  Since we had never gone to an event this large before we had no idea how much coffee to bring.  I was estimating that we would sell around 900 cups for the three days.  We ended up selling over 1400 cups.  Seven Stars Bakery in Providence was great.  They delivered all the pastries to us every morning before the sun came up.  For the third day we ended up grinding a lot of our whole bean coffee we brought to sell in order to keep everything moving smoothly.  Everyone was super nice and we met tons of new people.  There was a non stop line for coffee from the time we started until the final race.  We learned a lot and hopefully we will be a part of next years event.
