The Cold Never Bothered Us Anyway

January 7, 2026

Before we dive into January, we wanted to take a moment to look back at some of our crazy 2025 stats. Here’s a quick recap of what our community accomplished together:
• 870 new members joined Commons
• 3,404 meetings took place
• 205 events were held
• And ~1,550 lbs of coffee consumed – that’s roughly 26,500 cups and 30,000 espresso shots (yes, we did the math)

Thank you for making the Commons community what it is: fully booked, well-connected, and very well-caffeinated.

Here’s what’s happening in January
