June Event - Woody's Bar with The Attic Youth Center

Join us in June as we raise a Glass at Woody's Bar for The Attic Youth Center, a phenomenal resource for Philadelphia's LGBTQ youth. Whether you are celebrating Pride, want to stick it to North Carolina, believe that "children are our future" or simply want a chance to dance while enjoying a free drink and free appetizers, this is the event for you! $10 is the required donation (100% of proceeds go to The AYC)...and of course you are required to have a fabulous time!

Playing the role of hosts in June are Ty Furman and Steve McCann!

We can't wait to see you on Tuesday, June 5th, from 5:30-8pm!

A Strong Finish with Back on My Feet

Wow...we still can't believe what an awesome event we held this past Tuesday!  For realz...you all made us so happy with your generous support of Back on My Feet (BoMF).  Because of you, we reached a new SCP PR (trying to use some running terms here) and raised $1250 for BoMF!!!  It looks like Year Two for SCP is going to be a strong one. 

We have a lot of Thank You's to dish out this month:

1.  Elephant and Castle - Not only did they provide a great drink selection and good food for free, they also added a $50 gift card to our raffle!  Did someone say "new favorite bar"? 

2.  BoMF - Thanks for keeping the entrance moving, the raffle going and the people streaming in! 

3.  Lehigh Young Alumni Association - You were our first alumni hosts and you can be sure we'd do it all again (much like college).

4.  Maureen Bole - Another awesome host for the night who made sure her friends had SCP on their calendars! (more information about hosting can be found at www.scphila.blogspot.comhttp://scphila.blogspot.com/2011/05/get-involved.html)


Everyone will want to mark their calendars for our June Happy Hour on Tuesday, June 5th as we "Drink Up, Give Back" to the Attic Youth Center.

May Event - Elephant and Castle with Back on My Feet

May's Happy Hour will be Tuesday, May 1st from 5:30-8pm at Elephant and Castle (1800 Market).  You'll want to run, not walk, to this one as our boozin' will benefit Back on My Feet (BoMF), which helps the homeless in Philadelphia through running programs.  So, all you avid runners, take a break with a beverage and for all you non-runners...enjoy creating your own "runner's high" (via the drinks or the feeling you get from doing some good), as we all "Drink Up, Give Back"!  

Per usual, Elephant and Castle will be offering one free drink and some free appetizers to SCPers (and BoMFers) who donate $10 at the door.  Remember that 100% of proceeds go to BoMF! 

Additionally, BoMF will be selling their first ever race day shirts at the event.  If you are running Broad Street, consider making a purchase.  We'll also have a pair of Phillies tickets to raffle off for their Tuesday, June 5th game vs. the LA Dodgers.
