Bar crawls can be a fun and exciting way to explore a new city or nightlife scene, but they can also be challenging if you're not prepared. Here are some tips to help you survive a bar crawl: Read The Communication Beforehand: we will send out information to you via email before the Crawl to know where and when to go to check in and register. Arrive On Time: If you arrive late to registration you might miss out on some of the fun. Pace Yourself: It's essential to pace yourself and drink responsibly during a bar crawl. Stay Hydrated: Drinking plenty of water can help you stay hydrated and reduce the risk of a hangover the next day and help with your overconsumption of alcohol during the Crawl. Eat Beforehand: Eating a substantial meal before the bar crawl can help absorb alcohol and prevent you from getting too drunk too quickly. Dress Comfortably: Wear comfortable shoes and clothing that allows you to move freely and stay cool. Stay Safe: Stick together with your group, and make sure to have a designated driver or plan for transportation at the end of the night. Conclusion In summary, a bar crawl is an event where a group of people visit multiple bars or pubs in a single night. And it can be a great time as you travel from bar to bar. Now that you know what the bar crawl experience is all about, you can make your crawling experience even more fun by join us

Your Money or Your Life: 9 Steps to Transforming Your Relationship with Money and Achieving Financial Independence
《Your Money or Your Life》是由**Vicki Robin**与**Joe Dominguez**合著的经典理财与生活哲学著作,被誉为 “FIRE 运动(财务自由、提早退休)的圣经”。该书于 1992 年首次出版,2018 年推出全面修订版,至今全球销量超百万册,被翻译成英、中、日、德等十余种语言,深刻影响了全球读者对金钱、工作与人生的认知
**Frequently asked questions:**
**Do I have to finish the book to attend?**
Not at all. If you plan to read or have read it, that’s great; if you haven’t touched it, you’re still more than welcome to join. Come and meet like-minded people and connect over the topic as well as the book.
**How can I contribute to the discussion if I haven’t read the book?**
The book is simply a conversation starter - our discussions often branch out into related themes, personal experiences and broader topics of interest. Our gathering is more about socialising and engaging in decent conversations with book lovers, rather than a formal seminar.
**Can I also discuss my own fav book or the book I recently read?**
Absolutely! Our gatherings are all about open conversations, and we’d love to hear your thoughts on any book that’s been captivating to you.
**Is this group open to everyone?**

**What if I'm shy about speaking in front of the group?**
No pressure! You're welcome to participate in the way that feels most comfortable for you. Whether you share your views or just listen, your presence is valued. A lot of people come alone - so don't be shy!!

Bowling on New Year’s Eve is **nearly impossible to book** — and we locked down 8 lanes. That alone makes this a rare one.

Contra dance with Big Scioty on Jan 3 - First Congregational Church
**Caller: Gaye Fifer**
**Band: Hot Coffee Breakdown**
**Big Scioty Contra Dance**
**temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215**
WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing!
Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor.
Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner.
Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot.
For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/)
Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!
