To say we are a coffeehouse or a community center describes part of who we are —after all we do serve hot beverages and we are a place that is accessible to the entire community, but it only tells part of the story. The term "third place" (the "first place" being the home and the "second place" being the workplace) is more accurate; we are indeed a place to gather, have a bite to eat, to read, and visit with friends. A more accurate description, but not complete.
Clark's Corner is about connections. It's the connections we have to our friends, our families, our town and our region. The connections to our grandparents and our children. Clark's is a place that keeps each generation connected to the ones that came before and the ones who will follow.
Clark's Corner is a place where each member of the community can connect with any other; whether at boisterous, large gatherings, or quietly in small groups over a hot cup of coffee.
