Grab your date and join us at the Collins’s home (2465 Corteland Drive) to celebrate the season with a festive beer and cookie exchange. The exact quantity of beer and cookies you should bring depends upon how many people are coming, so please RSVP early if you can.
We’re changing it up this time and meeting on a Friday night. The party starts at 7:30. Come for the craft beer and cookies, stay to make friends with your fellow Newcomers!
Quick note on craft seasonals: Some of them are released early and sell out quickly, so keep an eye out and buy your beer early!
Grab your date, cross your fingers for cooler weather, and come chill with us. We thought we’d keep it casual for our first couples event, so dress to be comfortable for an evening of backyard fun at the Collins’s house (2465 Corteland Drive).
We’ll set up the fire pit and pull out Kubb and Bocce. Play some games or just hang out and get to know your fellow Newcomers.
BYOB and a snack to share. Please RSVP below!
