Please join us on Tuesday, May 7th at the beautiful and classy LIBERTY HOTEL, which is one of our favorite venues. It's located at 215 Charles St. by MGH/Mass Eye & Ear. The hotel is the former historic Charles Street Jail and has unique & cool interior architecture. It's right across from the Red Line and is easy to find. Parking info is below.If you want to get out more and meet folks in-person, this group is a great place to start--there are no Zooms or deep fakes here! :o) BGP is one of the friendliest gay networking groups in New England; you'll meet a lot of nice people from all walks of life for some good ol' fashioned face-to-face networking & conversation.
The event starts at 6:30 and ends at about 9:00. You don't need to get there at 6:30, so please come by when you can. We'll be in Liberty's spacious and open mezzanine bar area, which is up the escalators and to the right as you enter. More info on the hotel is here (http://www.libertyhotel.com/).
PRICE:
Unless it's your first evening event, which is free (see below), the fee is $10 if paid in advance and is made when you RSVP via PAYPAL.
Meetup has recently started adding a separate $1.62 fee for itself (greedy bastards!), so the total will now be $11.62. Unfortunately, we can't waive this fee if you register through Meetup. BUT...
...if you don't want to pay it or don't like using PayPal, you can use VENMO to pay just $10 instead. Please contact Dan at [email protected] or message him through Meetup for more info on how to do this outside of the Meetup site.
There are NO REFUNDS, so please only RSVP if you're sure you can attend. If you have to cancel though, kindly change your RSVP.
If there's room after the event starts--and you can RSVP through Meetup until 6:30--you can still attend, but it will cost $15 (cash) at the door. No exceptions! So pre-payment is definitely a little less expensive.
COVID PROTOCOLS:
DO NOT RSVP OR ATTEND if you have: (1) Had Covid yourself within the last 5 days; (2) been exposed to anyone with Covid in the last 5 days; or (3) are sick or feeling sick (better safe than sorry!).
If you've already paid and then can't attend due to Covid, we do NOT give refunds, but you will be credited $10 internally for another evening event.
IF IT'S YOUR FIRST EVENT: ATTENDING FOR FREE...
If you are new or have never been to an event, YOUR FIRST EVENT IS FREE. That way you can meet us, check out the group, and start meeting new people.
Meetup, however, won't allow you to RSVP without paying, so you must e-mail Dan at [email protected] or message him through Meetup to be put on the RSVP list--and please INCLUDE THE LINK TO YOUR BGP PROFILE so he can find you. And then be sure to come!
If you don't show and don't change your RSVP, that still counts as your first event and you'll have to pay for the next one. If you're a first-timer, please do NOT just show at the event without contacting Dan or it will cost $15 to attend.
GETTING THERE BY T:
The T is the most convenient way to the Liberty. It's across the street from the Charles St/MGH stop on the Red Line. You can't miss it!
PARKING:
For those driving, this can be a costly area for parking as options are limited. Parking at Liberty is expensive ($35 or more). But for those who don't mind walking several blocks, parking is usually much cheaper at the Gov't Center Garage (if there's no event at the TD Garden) or Pi Alley Garage on Washington Street. In addition, metered parking until 8:00 is sometimes available on Blossom St., which is 3 blocks away (where the Wyndham Hotel is) and is an easy walk over.
