Hey
Playas!
It's
best that you play safe, boys and girls! Playing well with others
is far preferable to playing well with yourself, er, not that
I would know about that. I read it in Maxim.
Thanks
to all those who entered in last week's draw. We've got a winner
but stay tuned, we have lots of other awesome surprises in the
next little while.
NOT
ONCE, NOT TWICE, PLAY IT THREE TIMES
This
Wednesday, join us at the Urban Well for our comedy night. Starts
at 6:30 with mixin' minglin' playin' and two sets of professional
paid-for jokin'. Appies will be served. More info HERE!
Special
bonus - the VIP hookup for Friday at the Horse Races. You got
it! Get in to our Friday event absolutely free by attending the
Wednesday Comedy Night. Bribery at it's best fo' sheezy.
So
what's all this hype all about? On Friday we'll be joining the
Jericho Tennis Club and the Vancouver Lawn and Tennis Club Pool
Party Crew down at Hastings Park for Friday Night at the Races.
More info HERE.
And
if that wasn't Urban Mixer overload already, join me Sunday afternoon
down at the bottom of Denman for a wicked inline skating session
- starting out with an instructional lesson for the beginners
by yours truly and then ending in a skate for our intermediate
and advanced sk8ers. More info HERE.
If
you’d like us to play at your party, or you know of a great
place to play, or some nifty new playas, then don’t press
Play, press THIS [raj@urbanmixer.com] and
email me all about it. If we decide to play your game, you’ll
get a swell new playa t-shirt, just for being such a playboy/girl.
