OPINION: Starbucks – is it a threat or an opportunity for Mount Shasta?

OPINION: Starbucks – is it a threat or an opportunity for Mount Shasta?
Submitted by Jeff Butzlaff, Mount Shasta
My wife Mary and I are faithful, longtime and forever customers of Suzzanne Mendenhall’s Coffee Brake. This letter intends to convey that things may not be what they initially seem, and provide encouragement to her, her many fellow supporters, and our other unique coffee houses, in an alternative, broader vision of what the added presence of Starbucks could mean. While it may seem counterintuitive, I posit the following factors of an economic dynamic in such as small, quaint, largely tourist based community as Mount Shasta, ideally located both where heaven and earth meet, and right along Interstate 5.
