• We’ll meet at Heritage Park by 2:00 PM and aim to be on the water by 2:30 PM.

• Paddling will wrap up around 6:00 PM,
and we’ll head back into town by 6:30 PM.

• If you’re in SE Portland and interested in carpooling, reach out—I’m happy to coordinate a meetup spot.

Don’t have a board or kayak? No worries, send me a message, and I’ll do my best to help you find one.

Let’s paddle, laugh, and connect see you on the lake!

It is my birthday weekend, but you all get the presents! Kasa, Portland's premier night club, is treating you to VIP treatment, including:

* opening early exclusively for our group.
* no cover charge until 9pm
* drink specials
* a DJ playing Latin dance music to shake your body to

I might even have something special for everyone with a May birthday.

This will be a social event where you can mix and mingle and join as many conversations as you like. This venue has a dance floor as well as several booths where people can sit and talk.

If you have tried other groups on Meetup and have been disappointed, I encourage you to come to this event. This event/group is different than most social Meetup groups in a few fundamental ways:

1. we have the entire venue to ourselves for at least the first couple hours. There is no guesswork on who is here from Meetup - EVERYONE is.
2. I try to personally greet everyone to comes to each event, and also introduce you into a conversation, if you like.
3. there are no cliques here; there are always a lot of new folks, and the people who are regulars are very welcoming to first time attendees.

The event starts at 8pm, but please feel free to stop by anytime. There is no such thing as being late.

I hope to see you there!
