This meet up took place after a few informal conversations in the sauna and two unofficial gatherings 🔥

It’s always good to pause, return to your roots, and remember where the ideas and initial purpose for anything comes from. Celebrating three years of serving up an experience for sober folks and those who just want an evening out without alcohol, and reflecting on the people around us (that’s the really sweet and meaningful stuff) and the momentum that moved it forward.

Gratitude for this community and thank you to all of you who continue to show up and sweat!
