ADD FRIENDS

Pour one for yourself and pass the pitcher on. And while you're at it, pass this email on as well. Don't keep all the good stuff for yourself! Forward this weekly social roundup to your friends and bask in the resulting tsunami of goodwill and free drinks! Every one of our wholesomely sexy events also has a "Send this page to somebody" button on its unique web page, so pass it on!

SPY for Us

Oh, it's one thing to splash in the shallow waters of the social swim. It's quite another to conduct a coverup with style! To that end if you're the first to let me know of an awesome upcoming event or new venue I'll send you a classic Urban Mixer tee for maximum post-pool style points.
