In addition to a great year for the Pens, it was also an amazing time for our Meetup Group. Some of the highlights of the season:
-Switched to a new bar - Foley's! -We got over 300 members -We raised $1,000 for the Mario Lemieux Foundation -We got a handful of really nice mentions on thepensblog -Jim from "Yinz luv da guins" found us and featured us in a lot of his videos - his Game 7, SCF video being a personal fave of mine. -mini tux -Went to a few NJ Devils games (but I think we lost them all, oh well) -Lots of people doing road trips to games with people they met through the Meetup Group -Started a twitter account for the Meetup Group, getting us more members and notice -Got two new awesome assistants in Cara and Kristin -And we had our biggest event ever with Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals! PENS WIN THE CUP! Hopefully we'll have a victory party soon. Lots of talk of getting together for when the DVD for the Pens season comes out (early July I think?). If you have any ideas for off season get Meetups, just shoot me an email. Was so great getting to meet so many new people this year and sharing the game 7 victory with all of you. Just incredible. And you can always join the Pirates Meetup Group if you love the Buccos. GO PENS! Hope everyone has a great weekend. -Mark |
