DSA NC Triangle Spring Social - May 2022

Start: Sunday, May 22, 2022 1:00 PM

End: Sunday, May 22, 2022 4:00 PM

Join us for casual snacks, drinks and solidarity on Sunday, May 22nd, 1p-4p at William B. Umstead State Park. Bring a friend, family member or coalition partner. We ask that you RSVP at this link so that we can determine how many people to expect. Also, please note this is not a potluck. Snacks and drinks will be provided, but if you want to bring anything, like a cooler with ice or other snacks please let us know in the RSVP form. We had more than 50 people at our last social, so if you're bringing something, bring a lot of it!

There will be picnic table seating available at the shelter location, but if you have portable chairs that you prefer to use, please plan to bring them. Also, please bring a thermal mug or plastic cup for beverages so that we can cut down on waste. And if you have fun group games like Jenga, ladder ball, board games, frisbees, hacky sack, etc. please bring them!
