We'll be benefiting Bike to the Beach for Autism. . . http://www.biketotheb... . . . an organization famous for it's annual "Bike to the Beach" event that raises money and awareness for Autism!. . . suggested $5 or $10 donation. Please note 80% of donations goes to Bike to the Beach, 20% of donations go to the 20s & 30s Going Out Group to cover meetup fees and expenses. The following groups will be joining us so far:

. 20s & 30s Going Out Group

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

For those that haven't been there before, Play is a colorful lounge that includes cube-style ottomans and low banquettes. It's saturated with color from cool mint greens to in-your-face oranges and reds. See www.playloungedc.com.

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.
