Save the Date for August

If you can't join us in July or are simply certain you can't bare to miss an SCP event, pull out your calendar (paper, electronic, mental...) and mark Tuesday, August 2nd.  We'll be gathering at Jose Pistolas and putting our Cheers! to good use for The Drueding Center.

More details to follow....

July Event - Drinker's Pub with Save 2nd Base

We know you are busy planning your 4th of July weekend so we wanted to be on your radars early!  Get ready to extend the holiday with SCP's Tuesday, July 5th Happy Hour at Drinker's Pub (Center City) benefiting Save 2nd Base. Save 2nd Base uses humor to build breast cancer awareness the same way we use drinks to benefit all of these amazing bars and charities...so it's a perfect fit! 

This month's happy hour will be a little different as your $10 donation will give you access to $2 domestic drafts and $4 well drinks along with some free appetizers courtesy of Drinker's Pub.  The drink special runs from 5:30-7:30pm, but we'd love you to stick around until 8pm when we officially pack it in.

Also, a special thanks to our hosts for this event....The Save 2nd Base Softball Team at the University of Pennsylvania.  We look forward to seeing the team and all the friends they recruit at happy hour!

A Home Run with Project H.O.M.E.

As usual we want to thank those of you who made it out to last night's event.  We were excited to see many familiar faces as well as LOTS of new ones.  Because of your help we were able to raise over $600 for Project H.O.M.E (the largest amount yet)!   

Thanks also to Project H.O.M.E and Fado for being such phenomenal partners! 

Don't forget to mark your calendars for July 5th at Drinker's Pub. 

Save the Date for July

If you want to see us in July (and we know you do!) or if you simply want to extend the 4th of July festivities...mark your calendars for Tuesday, July 5th.  We'll be hanging out at Drinker's Pub (Center City) and supporting Save 2nd Base! 

June Event - Fado with Project H.O.M.E.

Join us on Tuesday, June 7th for our happy hour at Fado (15th and Locust) benefiting Project H.O.M.E,!  We kept this one close to the Broad Street Line for those of you en route to the Phillies game.  And for those of you who simply want to watch the game, take advantage of Fado's many televisions!  A $10 donation to Project H.O.M.E. gets you one free drink and an hour of free appetizers courtesy of Fado from 5:30-8pm.

Philabundance Filled Up!

Thanks to those of you that made it to our May event, we raised $460 for Philabundance.  Hurrah to you for helping to feed MANY families in our region!

And a big congrats to Maria Zito, winner of the Phillies vs. Dodgers tickets!

May Event - Tavern on Broad with Philabundance!

Put our second event on your radar and more importantly, firmly in your calendar!  We'll be gathering at Tavern on Broad (on Broad between Walnut and Locust) and proceeds will benefit Philabundance*.  Like last time, the donation is $10 and goes straight to the charity.  TOB is providing one free drink, half price drinks and half price appetizers through 8pm for each attendee.  Each $10 donation will provide 20 meals to those in need across the Delaware Valley! 

And guess what else - we will be raffling off three tickets to see the Phillies/Dodgers game at Citizen's Bank Park on June 7th!  Raffle tickets will be an additional $10 donation - or $40 for 5 raffle tickets.  Tickets are in Section 421 - right over home plate!!

And because we know you'll have a great time, you'll want to Save the Date (unless you win those Phillies tickets) for Tuesday, June 7th's event benefiting Project H.O.M.E..
