FYI: I'll be wearing an all red dress and we'll try to meet near the children's play area where they have a boat and firetruck.

The Red Room on Glenwood South offers Tapas to share, dinner entres, and half price bottles of wine on Tuesdays!!

S let's meet at Red Room for a little R&R and do some socializing and share some excellent food and wine ... they offer bar seating, tall tables for 4 to 6, a comfortable lounge area indoors, or we can reserve some tables on the patio (which might be nice with the weather mellowing out) ... let me know your preference in your RSVP, and the majority rules!

Unfortunately I don't think I can attend this event. Sorry for the last minute update. It's a great cause though so if you can make it out, definitely come out for some bowling. Classes are really kicking my butt so I need to dedicate more time to my studies. Again, sorry for the inconvenience.

Join myself, volunteer members of ME³, and lots of others at this year's Strike for Survival event, an annual bowling fundraiser for the American Cancer Society! Great people have coordinated it and run it and everybody has a good time.

This year's event in Raleigh will be taking place Saturday, September 12. Registration opens at 5:30 p.m. and bowling starts at 7:00 p.m.! The cost is $25 and includes shoes, pizza, drinks, and a goody bag. It's really a lot of fun, especially with a group of friends.

Hey Everyone -

As the weather is getting warmer and warmer, what better way to combat the heat than to enjoy some snowballs (like snowcones only better!). They have over 100 flavors and are only $1 each.

Pending on interest, we can even hit a few golf balls on the driving range. It's $5-10 for a buck of balls (depends on the bucket size) and you can rent golf clubs too if you don't have your own.

Overall, a very kick back and relaxing evening. Hope you can join us!
