Welcome back San Francisco Green Drinkers!!! San Francisco Green Drinks is pleased to announce we are hosting our monthly **In-person Happy Hour Networking Event** on **Wednesday, November 18th**, at **Southern Pacific Brewing** \- a venue that should be familiar to our friends from Climatebase\, Work on Climate\, and others in the San Francisco Bay Area Climate Solutions Community\! Please note the change from Second Thursday to Third Wednesdays, going forward. Southern Pacific Brewing is located in a spacious warehouse in the Mission's industrial heart, that has been renovated into a bright and expansive brewery and restaurant complete with outdoor seating. It's about 6 blocks, or a 15-minute walk (less by bike!) from 16th Street Mission BART, so please plan ahead! Look for us at a table inside or in the Courtyard, depending on weather and crowds. Remember to bring your business cards, your positive attitude and your interest in discussing sustainability and climate change. Nametags will be available, but reusable ones are encouraged. Also, bring your cash or credit cards to pay for drinks. And be sure to tip our servers! As always, we encourage Green Drinkers to use public transportation, walk, bike or use some other form of low-carbon transportation to get to our event. If you need an escort to BART or Muni at the end of the night, feel free to ask one of our event volunteers! Look forward to seeing you there!! John Tripp President, San Francisco Green Drinks *** If you are interested in volunteering to help run SF Green Drinks, please reach out. I love hosting the event, but I'm always looking for volunteers, and I'd love to rebuild the leadership team! If your organization or someone you know is interested in sponsoring a SF Green Drinks Event, or you have an event space and would like to talk to us about hosting our event at your location, please contact me at: JohnPenfieldTripp@gmail.com The invite will be updated to include the specific date when the event is announced, usually about 1-2 weeks in advance, but we are always on the **Third Wednesday of the month**, unless announced otherwise. You can also leave a note here or on our Facebook Group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/sfgreendrinks/) for the latest information.
