Live Music, Axe Throwing, & Harry Potter Magic!
Welcome!
It’s great to be here to start the new year, and I’m glad I get to kick this newsletter off with you all! We’ve put together a list this week of some events we think you’ll love! It would be great if you could respond to the poll at the end to let us know what you’re most interested in, so we know what events you would love to see more of!
Let’s get into it!
🍻 Service Industry Night at The Community Tap Trailside
📅 When: Monday, January 8, 2024, from 5:00pm - 9:00pm
🏢 Where: Trial Side Tap at The Commons - (147 Welborn St. Greenville, SC)
Hey, service industry warriors! It's time to flip the script. Monday nights at Trailside Tap at the commons are about to become one of your new weekly highlights if they already aren't—no, seriously.
Here’s the scoop: After spending your days serving others, dealing with the good, the bad, and the hangry, we reckon it’s time someone served YOU. Trailside Tap gets it, and they're dishing out a 20% discount on your bar tab every Monday night. That’s right, drinks on the (sort of) house.
Why Monday? Because while the rest of the world is groaning about the start of the workweek, you, my friend, get to kick back with a cold one (or two), and at a sweet discount no less.
This night’s about you getting the VIP treatment you deserve.

🧊 Polar Plunge in the Saluda River
📅 When: Saturday January 13, 2024, Starts at 2:00
🏢 Where: 13 Stripes River Lodge - 1307 Old Easley Hwy Easley, SC
💲 Price: $20 tickets
The Challenge: Picture this. You, alongside a bunch of brave (or maybe just crazy) souls, taking a dive into the chilly Saluda River. It’s a moment of madness, sure, but it's madness with a mission: supporting the ALS Therapy Development Institute and their fight to end ALS.
But wait, there's more: post-plunge, thaw out with live music, bonfires, and some well-earned food and beer. Oh, and let’s not forget smores kits, because what’s a bonfire without smores?
Bring Your Squad: This isn't just for the plungers. Bring friends, family, or anyone who enjoys watching others jump into freezing water. They can cheer, laugh, and more importantly, be part of something that's making a difference.
Why Dive In? Because sometimes, doing something a little wild can lead to a lot of good. It’s about community, courage, and taking a stand (or a dive) for those battling ALS.
So, gear up for a chilly dip, a warm fire, and a heart full of fulfillment. Let's make a splash in the fight against ALS. Are you in?
