Second attempt 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!

    Hey, Amy. I was planning to walk there from PATCO. Where is the RiverRink? I'm seeing a few different addresses pop up on GoogleMaps.

    •  Good times, good people and good cheer! Amy, thanks for organizing! 
    •  What an adventure 
    • Graham (+1 guest)
       skating was fun, and happy hour too. The river rink zamboni man needs to clean the ice more often.

       Oh, we can not do Mad River again! The noise level was abusive! Buffalo Billards was so much quiter and nicer! Otherwise, a good time. 
    •  Great people...felt like a kid again skating! Thanks for organizing, Amy!

       Fun, except me feet didn't hold up too good. 
    •  GREAT!!!!! 
    • Natasha (+1 guest)
       Ice skating outside was fun and the group was friendly. Next time a bar with a little less intense music would be great, but overall I had a really good time. 
    •  My ice skating skills were lacking, but it was a fun event and perfect weather for it! 
    •  A nice group of people as usual. I arrived a little late and decided not to skate, but the meetup bar on Chesnut street was too loud. I stayed about about an hour and a half until I couldn't hear. The people were great though.
