Looking For Some Colder Weather?

Can't wait to hang out with over 40 of my E&A friends on the 18th Annual Events and Adventures Whistler Ski Trip. We will be leaving on Thanksgiving, but will get there in time for a wonderful Thanksgiving feast with our E&A family. We will be staying in the Village for easy access to Chairlifts and Gondolas for some AWESOME skiing during the day and all the nightlife at night! We let you know how it all turns out, but if it is anything like past years there will be much to talk about!  Events And Adventures Phoenix

Fred Astaire Dancing!

One of the most popular events here at Events & Adventures is anywhere where we get instruction on proper dance steps and moves! One of our favorite places to go is the Fred Astaire Dance Studio where the instructors are plentiful, music and dance partners are great and where we all feel comfortable putting to use the step-by-step instruction we received for the evening!  
We had such a great time a few months ago, that we decided to go check it out again in a new location! Between foxtrot, waltz, and several other dances, the options are endless! This  event is one of the best ways to meet other members as we have the opportunity to dance with one another throughout the evening! This is an event not to be missed!

Adults Only Night!

This past weekend we headed downtown to check out the Adults Night Out event at the Phoenix Science Museum! All that really means is that there are NO kids! We were able to grab a drink at the entrance (if we wanted) and headed in with just us adults – and it was awesome!
As a group we checked out several of the floors of interesting information, challenged each other with their hands on experiments and got to know one another in a fun, open environment! There was no uncomfortable pressure or awkward activities that made anyone feel out of place.  Afterwards we met up at a local pub that had some great music, a plethora of drink specials and options along with great food! The best part of the evening though: we were there till the late hours getting to know one another, making new friends and just enjoying a night out and not sitting at home!

Doing the Cha Cha!

Looking back, attending events that “get you out of your shell” or events that you normally would NEVER do on your own are some of the best events to attend! For example, most of us are not the best dancers out there – but that doesn’t mean we can’t be taught how to ‘cut a rug, how to two-step, or just plain’ol how to ‘drop it like it’s hot’!
One of the best events that we do here at Events & Adventures is when the group goes out to learn a new dance! We’ve done a lot of country two-stepp’in lately and that’s been a hit!  So to get us out of our shell even more, we’re heading south of the boarder, with the Latin dominate Cha-Cha dance!  Ayi ayi ayi!  This fast, rhythmic ballroom dance from Latin-American has a basic pattern of three steps and a shuffle – easy as 1, 2, and 3! So guys, this is as easy as it gets ;)

The best part? With some great instruction, you’ll not only learn something you thought you might have never of learned and you’ll do it with an awesome group of people, making some great memories!

It's That Time Of Year Again!

There’s an event that only comes around once a year to Phoenix and it brings people from all over the state together for a couple of weeks. Yes, the Arizona State Fair. It’s a one-of-a-kind event that satisfies our inner-child via rides, food and activities!  
I don’t think we could get from ride to ride fast enough or scream from exhilaration any louder! It’s not every day you drop 100ft in just a few seconds or swing high and fast above the fairgrounds in the air! Between our group we ate our fair share of junk food – which was AMAZING! Ever try a deep fired Oreo? They’re actually pretty delish!
Within minutes of playing the fair games, we had all won a stuffed animal… only to add to our collection later on in the evening.  We got to pet baby goats, pot belly pigs, lambs and kangaroos! Walking around the state fair allowed us to chat and get to know each other better and talk about upcoming events. With amazing weather and great company, this event is a not-to-be-missed!
