Event description

What? You haven't been to a Jerry's/Biznik monthly hootenanny yet?

Well, now's the time, new best friend!

Come meet up with real, L.A. peeps at our now-regular monthly gathering in the Marina. Networking newbie? No problem! This is the friendliest, lowest-key, funnest (yeah, it's a word...in our world) event around. No speakers, no agenda—just cool, indie business people like yourself gathering to meet, talk, share ideas, blow off steam and build the connections that will change lives.

Okay—that's a little dramatic. How about this: it's networking that is FUN and EASY and FREE!

Join us! Bring your iPhone or crackberry if you can't bear to be away from the email for an hour or so, but bring yourself. We gather on the covered patio, closest to the parking lot. It's getting nice out, so maybe we'll spill out onto the UNcovered patio this time.

There is NO CHARGE to attend; just buy a drink or snack and Mike, our cruise director at Jerry's, will be happy to keep hosting. Bring small bills: we split the check to keep the wear and tear on our waitrons to a minimum.

Colleen looks just like her picture, if it's five years ago and you're standing on a ladder, looking down at her. Heather looks just like her picture, plus cool glasses. We'll have name tags, just to make it super-easy. We can't wait to meet you!

DOWN AND DIRTY DEETS:

FREE! (but throw our hosts a bone and get yourself a wee something)
free parking (and plenty of it!)
bring small bills! (we split the check)
freeway-friendly (right off the 90!)
we're on the side patio
did we mention we'd love to meet you? WE WOULD!

oh, MAN! I'm sorry I'll miss this one (and will be glad to be in New York at the time). Colleen and Heather's rocking mixer at Jerry's is one monthly networking event I crave! Always a fantastic crop of brainy go-getters. Have a corn dog for me--someone!

I'm going to try and come. I have a tight deadline - so I might have to keep my nose to the grindstone.

I'm sorry. Something else (family biz) came up. So I definitely won't be there. Hopefully I'll see you all next month.

A big thank you to our hostesses with the mostesses--Colleen and Heather. I appreciate you taking the time and putting in the efforts to put it together. It was a most delightful event and I had a great time and learned stuff too. I demand a redo soon, please. My furry friend gave it a four paws up as well. Thanks again.
