Okay, time to get together for our next happy hour!

Our happy hour will benefit GI-NET... http://www.genocidein... ... a non-profit member-based organization that empowers individuals and communities with the tools to prevent and stop genocide... suggested $5 or $10 donation. Please note 80% of donations go to the GI-NET and 20% of donations will go to the 20s & 30s Going Out Group to cover Meetup fees and expenses. Groups that will be joining us:

Kick-A$$ Professionals
DC/VA/MD Happy Hour
Little Black Dress Club
Indians Socializing Over Drinks and Sports
Washington's Biggest Givers
DC Metro New in Town

DJ Teng will be spinning loungy groovy beats for us. Our happy hours typically bring out 150 - 250 folks... and I wouldn't be surprised with a similar turnout this time around.

If you haven't been there before, Eyebar features sleek, modern décor, cushy furniture, and trendy lighting.

To help continue the friendly tone of this group... I'd like to again encourage each person to have a GOAL OF MEETING 3 NEW PEOPLE at this event. To help do this, for an icebreaker, we'll put your name in a jar as you walk in, and then give you someone else's name from the jar. Also, 20s & 30s Rockstars, please help make all the newcomers feel welcome to our group!

- J.T.

Closest Metro is Farragut West (Orange and Blue lines), I suggest metro / cabbing it (esp. during rush hour), recommend using wmata for travel plans.

    Great time, and great crowd, though, agreed, it would have been nice if the other floor was open too.
