It's February and for this month I'm trying something a little different. Instead of our usual time, let's have brunch. Show up at 10AM and as long as I get it all organized, we'll make pancakes. Feel free to bring other brunch items to share. If you're new and curious, this event tends to draw a mixture of familiar faces and new people. Feel free to bring a friend/partner or just you. To find us, park along 14th ave and walk to the beach at the end. Look for the purple flag. We're excited to meet you! -Mario *****Logistics***** • No cover or cost to attend • If you need help during the event, find your host, Mario •You can find us by looking for the purple flag *****Event Guidelines***** • Respectful Behavior toward hosts and guests is required. Anyone who violates these rules may be asked to leave the event. •No photography, video, or recording of any kind is allowed without prior verbal consent of all parties involved. •Verbal Consent: Please be sure to ask and wait for a yes before hugging or initiating any physical contact, and encourage each other to speak openly about consent and personal boundaries. This helps foster a culture where personal boundaries are supported and attendees are empowered to speak confidently of their limits. (i.e. “Can I give you a hug?” “No thank you, but I would love a handshake.”) •Adult focus: This event is intended for adults since some conversation might not be appropriate for children. While children can attend, it is the responsibility of their parent/guardian to remove their kids from conversations that are not age-appropriate. •Expectations: Our events are about developing friendships and connections within the community. Check your expectations at the door. Being at this event does not signal sexual availability or indicate any aspect of sexual orientation. This is a no cruising event, in order to maintain a comfortable atmosphere for everyone. **What does "no cruising" mean?** The no cruising guideline has a lot to do with intentions. Are you coming to this event specifically to go home with a bunch of numbers and dates on the calendar? We'd discourage that. But, are you wanting to come and socialize with other poly people? Great! And does that sometimes naturally lead to dates? Sure does! Just as one might end up dating someone they meet at a running club even though the running club is not specifically set up to be a dating event. The main thing behind the guideline is preventing it from feeling like a meat market. This is a social event, not a dating event. We want the people who show up to feel comfortable. Having to fight off constant passes can be really uncomfortable. *****Food and beverages***** No cover or cost to attend, but food and beverages (non-alcoholic) to share are welcomed. Hosts will bring some snacks to share, so please do feel free just to pop by for a few minutes to say hi or to settle in for a chunk of time.
