Tomorrow. Paddles up at The Dink House.
When Sat, Oct 17 |
Time Doors 9:30 AM Play 10 AM – 4 PM |
Where 201 W Carmel Dr Carmel |
This is the one we have been pointing at since Labor Day. HIVE and The Dink House are putting 100 of Indy's young professionals on eight courts for six hours. You get matched in your skill range — never held a paddle is a skill range — and every dollar raised goes to Pack Away Hunger. Play a bracket, feed people.
Before you show up
| 01 | Lock your spot. The event is capped at 100 players. If you have not claimed a ticket, do it tonight. |
| 02 | Bring a guest. Six hours, a bracket, and no agenda. It is the easiest invite of the year, and guests are welcome. |
| 03 | Court sponsorships are still open. $500 puts your table courtside and your logo on every piece of marketing. Reply to this email to claim one. |
| 04 | Doors at 9:30. Check in, find your bracket, meet the people on your court. Three colonies in one building — that does not happen again until Thanksgiving. |

Say hello.
Two contracts signed on October 1. Both are in the Directory with contact info, and both will be at The Dink House tomorrow if you want to put a face to the name. If one is in your colony, you owe them a coffee. If one works next to your category, you owe them a referral.

Will Crew
Videographer

Carmel's first video seat. If your business has ever said "we should really be doing video," that sentence now has a name attached to it. He has already been in the portal this week — go find him. |

Payroll, benefits, compliance, the back-office stuff every owner in this network is doing badly at 11 PM. HamCo is now 29 members and this was one of its most-requested open categories. |
|
That makes six new members since September 1 — Kooper Glick, Kelsey Lakes, Peyton Sewell and Kevin Parker came in the first week — and most of them walked in because a member vouched for them.
