***NOTE: We're postponing the skating party due to rain; will try to reschedule within the next two weeks!! Join us at Dave & Buster's instead! They can give us a private area and a game special; I'm working on drink and food discounts too! :)

Dave & Buster's
325 N Columbus Philadelphia, PA 19106

Please change your RSVP if you won't be joining us at Dave & Buster's; I've promised the manager I would update our numbers so he can give us the best discount possible. :)

Thanks, see you there!***

Join us for our annual year-end wrap up party on ice! Great time to meet with friends you've made on our different trips & activities, and chat about what's coming up with Get Out Philly. This year's after-party at Mad River will include our year-in-review video, Volunteer of the Year Award,
and introduction of our new non-profit and the Board of Directors!

Skating:
We will have a few tables set aside for us in the main area; look for the Get Out Philly Banner and people wearing Santa hats! If you tell the cashier you're with the group Get Out Philadelphia, you should be able to get in for $7 instead of the regular price of $8. (Better yet, see below for a link to a $2 off coupon!) Skate Rental is $3. Skate session starts at 6 pm and goes to 8 pm; you can arrive early to get suited up in time.

We'll have a donation can out as usual; thanks for your $1 contribution to our new non-profit!

Beer:
Afterward we'll head to Mad River, at 126 Chestnut Street, where they're offering us $3 domestic drafts, wine and well drinks! They also have a dinner menu. Tell them you're with Get Out Philly and you'll get a wristband. We'll be meeting in the upstairs "lodge" area.

Mad River is 21+ only, so if you'd like to bring your family, let me know and we can set up a party with food and more at the River Rink!

Links:
Penn's Landing River Rink
Coupon for $2 off admission (up to 4 people per coupon)
Mad River Bar & Grill (You know you're going to a great bar when they play Guns & Roses on their homepage...)

* Technically, it's Ice Skating then beer. Alcoholic beverages aren't permitted in the River Rink. Families are more than welcome to join us!

We're a Brazilian Samba group...lots of percussion. Show will be at 7:30pm. More details to follow. Would love to have you guys there!! -Kevin

    Oh, yeah, thanks Tina...you can come to whichever part you'd like. If you're just going to Mad River, we have the space beginning at 8 but I wouldn't expect anyone to really be there until about 8:30. If anyone is interested in helping out at either the skating rink or Mad River, let me know!
