Vegan Drinks Philly THIS Thursday!

Vegan Drinks Philly
10.22.09 from 5:30-8:30
@ Horizons (downstairs)
611. S 7th St.

This is just another gentle reminder that Vegan Drinks Philly is THIS Thursday from 5:30 to 8:30. Make note that this month the event will be held in the downstairs area of Horizons.

The event is open to vegans, vegetarians, and the veg-curious. That means everyone! Also, you do not need to be 21 to come and it is pay as you go, there is no cover fee. Lastly, you do not have to RSVP to attend.

It seems like attendance is slightly down this month, so please bring friends! Vegan Drinks Philly is not only a great way for seasoned activists to stay connected and make contacts, but it's also a great place to introduce non-vegans to the idea of veganism.

If you haven't done so, please sign up for the email subscription to receive updates. Facebook is very restrictive with message sending, so sometimes updates will be sent out through here that will not be sent through Facebook.

All you need to do this Thursday is show up! Bring friends too! See you there!!

Our event is just one of many in 350 Philly's week of climate action. 350.org is an international campaign dedicated to building a movement to unite the world around solutions to the climate crisis--the solutions that justice demands. 350 Philly is the local 350.org effort.

Please join us!

If you are not on the Animal ACTivists of Philadelphia calender, you NEED TO BE! There are demonstrations and events almost daily that are highly under-attended.

The animals need our help and need us to be their voice. Even if you can only offer a couple of hours, it's better than nothing! Look how many of us attend Vegan Drinks each month. Imagine if we could transfer that energy to the streets to change hearts and minds!

MAJOR, MAJOR HELP is needed to staff the upcoming UniverSoul Circus making an extended stay at Fairmount Park near the end of this month.

After a two year absence, the UniverSoul Circus is back in Philly. .

We will be doing pre-circus leafleting in the weeks prior to the circus's arrival as well as demonstrations at every evening and weekend show.

PLEASE head over to and sign up for Animal ACTivists of Philly for more info!!

Thanks!

Thank you to everyone who has continued to support Vegan Drinks Philly for the past eight months and we hope to continue these events for many months to come.

Please keep in mind that there is a lot of behind the scenes work that goes on to prepare for these events each month and both myself and the wonderful people at Horizons have been working very hard to keep these events going.

I have recently been receiving many calls and emails thanking me for the wonderful event, especially after this past one. I would like to take a moment here to redirect these comments to the people that really put on the show.

Please take a minute or two of your time to express your kind regards to those folks at Horizons who have been instrumental in making these events happen. You can shoot an email to horizons@horizonsphiladelphia.com and you can also call 215.923.6117

It certainly means a lot to me to hear such kind words from all of you, but I'd like to make sure the people that really deserve it are hearing you. I thank you in advance for taking these few minutes of your time to do this.

Vegan Drinks Philly is the luckiest Vegan Drinks event in the country because we are one of the only events that is at an exclusively vegan restaurant and we're the only event with such spectacular cuisine. I'm 100% committed to keeping this thing going so long as we have continued support from all of you. Thanks!!

-Ed Coffin

P.S. I'll be announcing the date for the September event soon.
