Town of Blythewood Meetings Town of Blythewood Work Session Thursday, April 13 9:00 am Doko Manor Board of Architectural  Review Monday, April 17 6:00 Doko Manor Town Council Meeting Monday, April 24 7:00 Doko Manor The Greater Blythewood Chamber of Commerce    Your New Chamber Office Opens this Month! On April 18th, 5:30 to 7:00 pm we will be hosting our monthly networking event Blythewood After Five with the grand opening and ribbon-cutting of our new office and co-work space at 428-4 McNulty St. Please register in advance at blythewoodchamber.com The worldwide popularity of co-working is spreading to Blythewood. Independent professionals are discovering that their home office comes with a lot of distractions: dogs barking, family interruptions, etc.  Many of these workers are in need of desk space with wi-fi, printer, conference room, coffee, etc. but not interested in finding and leasing their own office space.  With the exploding population of the Blythewood area and the resulting increase in traffic congestion on I-77, the Greater Blythewood Chamber of Commerce has made the decision to open the town's first co-work space in their new office at 428-4 McNulty St. in Town Center. Come by and see it for yourself!
