Pacific Gravity Summer Party July 29, 2023

/in , , /by

Greetings Pacific Gravity!

 

RED, WHITE and BREW
This year’s summer party is set for July 29, 2023 and will be held at Dean Sussman’s Highland’s home located at 1310 Amalfi Drive, Pacific Palisades.

 

The theme for this year’s summer party is the American BBQ! We’ll be spotlighting burgers, smash burgers and hotdogs.

However, this being a ‘bring a plate’ potluck event we want you to bring your favorite dish along to the event as well; any dish is welcome, feel free to bring all your American BBQ side dish classics.

The summer party is a volunteer’s event, and we need lots of volunteers!  Volunteers will be needed for set up the day before and clean up of Dean’s house the day after.  We pay all volunteers in beer at the event, all-you-can-drink in fact; the only catch is we need you to brew the beer so we can use it to pay the volunteers!  Lot’s of beer!

We also need your sodas for the non-alcohol drinking crowd, if you have a good soda recipe; this is a great place to show it off.

Along with our best beer of the party judging we will also host this year’s drink competition!  Bring a batch of your favorite non-beer or non-alcohol (sodas count!) summertime drink and we will judge it and announce a winner at the event!

We will also be doing a Fire sale for Tee-shirts and Glasses – $5 bucks.  Other gifts will be available via our summer party raffle, Please bring cash if you want to participate.

As some of you may be aware of but others maybe not, PG recently lost one of its two founding members.  We will have a “share a beer with Fred” memorial bottle share tent where folks can pour a little out for our missing founder.  It will be a great way to toast his memory.

As always with the pandemic, we expect everyone to be fully vaxxed and/or non-symptomatic. Please be careful and remain safe at all times.
