DRY JANUARY PARTY Start Date: Sunday 1/19/2025 — End Date: Sunday 1/19/2025 Admission:20-30 Did you know that one third of men give up alcohol in the month of January? So do many women. We are proud to present the first-ever Dry January Singles Party, Sunday, January 19, 2025, 2-5pm, at Sipeos, a wonderful new restaurant that specializes in delicious non-alcoholic beverages. Many people over-indulge in alcohol on New Years Eve. This often provides impetus for a New Years Resolution to give up drinking. While alcoholic beverages are available at all of our parties, we always encourage our single professionals to drink responsibly, if they choose to drink. DISCOUNT TICKETS at www.thepartyhotline.com: $20/early birds; $30/regular price. Includes light appetizers, served at 2pm, as long as they last; accompanied by a FUN Mixer Game that makes it EASY to meet new friends. Appetizers include flatbreads, pinsa/pizzas, and dips. Adults of all ages welcome! Dress to impress. LOCATION: Sipeos, Broadway Plaza, 126 Broadway Lane, Walnut Creek, CA. The non-alcoholic beverages at Sipeos are NOT the typical sugary, juice-only mocktails commonly found at most restaurants. Sipeos uses spirit alternatives to replicate the taste profiles of alcoholic cocktails. 3 hours free parking in large parking garage (don’t go overtime!) CO-SPONSORED by The Society of Single Professionals, Singles Bay Area, and many other singles organizations and meetups! All events benefit The Seva Foundation, to restore sight to the blind.
