Here’s some info on the group and the event:
Thank you to those of you who made it out to our October event. We had close to 40 people throughout the night so it was a really nice crowd and thanks to Robert at the Bourbon Bar for the Tutta Bella appetizer and the DJ.
Our November event will be at Inays Rest. and Bar in Beacon Hill. We’ll have fabulous Drag Queen Atasha serving cocktails for our group in the bar along with 1/2 priced Filipino appetizers. Atasha normally only makes an appearance on Friday nights but said she’d be thrilled to do a special appearance for our SO90 group on Thursday. Inays had a really great writeup in the Stranger at: http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/filipino-fabulousness/Content?oid=5245362
As always, feel free to forward the invite on to anyone who lives, works or loves in one of the SO90 neighborhoods. Take care and we look forward to seeing you in November!
