July’s 1 Million Cups took place at the Portage Lake District Library. There were two presentations: Brendan Jacques from Portage Paddle Sports and Rebecca Glotfelty from Real People Media.
Portage Paddle Sports is located at Hancock Beach. They have kayaks and paddle boards available for rent starting at only $10, along with paddle boats and float tubes.

Real People Media is a nonprofit organization that helps people share their stories through literary, visual, performing, and media arts. They produce an old-time radio variety show, Red Jacket Jamboree, which is performed at the Calumet Theatre. “Like” them on Facebook and check out their website.
Recurring each month, two entrepreneurs are invited to pitch their ideas and receive feedback from the community. Each presenter has 6-7 minutes to pitch, followed by a 15-20 Q&A session. For more information, watch last month’s presentations on Annikakes and NECi.
