On Friday, September 5, there is a Barista Jam to be held at Kawa Espresso Bar located at 1331 – 8 St SW.  All Pro Barista and the home enthusiasts alike are welcome.  There is a $5.00 cover for entry with all proceeds generated from the entry, competition and silent auction going to support Coffee Kids.  This is a great cause and this is sure to be a great event.  For more information on how you can become involved, you can contact Elyse at .  Otherwise we’ll see you there.  For those who’ve never participated in a Jam with the inevitable Throw-down, it’sa ton of fun and an excellent opportunity to meet other coffee enthusiasts, and industry professionals alike.  Plus Elyse has arranged for a couple of great DJ’s.
