Bowling and Drinks
Let’s knock down some pins and knock back a few drinks while we’re at it.
Bowling is one of the best stress relievers out there, so bring your A game and let’s see what you’ve got.
It’s $20 per person, which includes free shoe rental and two hours of open bowling.
We’ll start with six people per lane. Once we have six, we’ll grab our lane and get rolling. If more people show up after that, we’ll snag the lane right next to us and keep the party going.
Come ready to have some fun.

Dinner Game Night
Come ready to play.
We’re turning dinner into a full-on game night. Card games, competitive chaos, and yes, those long strategic nerd games my friends love to play. We’ll also have Jackbox games on the big screen so everyone can jump in and talk a little trash.
There will be pizza. There will be drinks. There will be snacks. There will absolutely be laughter.
Pull up, grab a slice, pick a game, and let’s make it a night.
\* This will be at someone's house so address will be given night before the event.
