Sober Friendly Space
This is a sober-friendly space. If you choose to drink, we ask that you follow a few guidelines:
There will be people present who do not drink for a variety of reasons including age (this is an 18+ event), medical reasons or personal choice. Please respect people's choices.
We are in a shared space. Please respect that and we ask that a quiet time of 11pm be observed.
Safety is our first priority, both physical and emotional. If you are making others feel unsafe for any reason, you may be asked to leave.
This list is not exhaustive but will give you an idea of what to pack!
