Alive After Five
When:
June 30 Coconut Groove Band (Jimmy Buffett tribute)
July 14 Breakfast Club
July 28 Dave Matthews Cover Band
August 4 Crush
August 11 Vertical Horizon & Pat McGee Band
August 18 Frontier (Journey tribute)
September 1 Chairmen of the Board
 
What: Raleigh's favorite bi-monthly outdoor Summer jam
 
Where: Fayetteville St Mall
500 Fayetteville St Mall, Raleigh
Event Info - Click Here
 
Details: For those of you heading to Alive After Five, and hoping to run into some familiar faces, we encourage all Social Clubbers to gather in the back left corner, near the Bank of America ATM, when you're not taking laps or bathroom breaks. This is not an official TRI SPORTS supervised event, but we do hope it provides a way for everyone to see what other Social Clubbers have come out for the week's concert.

Bear in mind, on the smaller weeks, the crowd ebbs well into the center square, as does the TRI SPORTS group. So, as a general rule, back left is the place to see and be seen by TRI SPORTERS. So come on out. Gather. Mingle. Take a few laps, and come on back to the TRI SPORTS area where we have front row for some of the best people- watching to be had at Alive After Five. However, if you're looking to MEET Social Clubbers, and haven't participated in any TRI SPORTS events before, this is NOT the event for you; you need to be at another event (our Socials are good events), where it's obvious who's with the Social Club. AAF is tons of fun, but TRI SPORTERS are not easily identified, if you're not familiar with any of the 2900 Social Clubbers, already.

What to Expect: BEST Party of 2006!
A FREE Bottle of Trumer Pilsner to Everyone!


Time to celebrate Mardi Gras and Time to Celebrate Trumer Pilsner!
Trumer Pilsner just recently took Silver for Best German Style Pilsner at The 2005 Great American Beer Festival in Denver.
In 2004, Trumer Won the Gold Medal for best German-style Pilsner at the European Beer Star Competition, in Germany; one of the most prestigious of all world wide beer competitions. Click here or on flag logo above for more info on this World Champion Beer!

Mardi Gras Beads! Mardi Gras Beers! Mardi Gras Doubloons!

It's Raleigh's BEST Mardi Gras Party !!!

EVERYBODY is going to be here SAT! You should too!

Dress/What to Wear?
Please wear anything you consider Mardi Gras worthy. Costumes/Masks would be greatly appreciated. Naughty/Saucy T-Shirts/Clothing would also be appropriate. Costume ideas: Pimps, HOs, Priests, Evangelists, Police, Village People, Sexy Kitty, Sexy Mermaid, Jesters, Gangsters, Catholic School, Toga/Greek, Gladiator; all the typical sights you'd see on Bourbon Street-just do what you can on short notice. Beads are a given! Whatever you need to inspire your worst behavior. When deciding what to wear, anything that'll get you on Santa's Naughty List, and Coal in your stocking, is probably the "right" decision. Everybody has something in their closet they can wear- so no excuses! If nothing else, you could always wear a suit; say, your BIRTHDAY suit!

Parking
Parking for Five Points can be a challenge, especially as the night goes on. The Point has a parking lot behind the restaurant, and Fairview St (BP on corner) has lots of free parking. Also, Glenwood might have a few spots, and all the area side streets have parking as well. Parking is free in the Wachovia lot, next to NOFO, on Glenwood as well. Carpooling is not a bad idea.

Just $5 Cover for all this F-U-N! See you ALL there!
