Having The Time Of Their Lives, Doing Things They Normally Wouldn’t Do!

Working for Events & Adventures has been quite rewarding over the last several months.  When I’m able to attend events in the evening and on the weekends, I love meeting up and seeing the members that I’ve personally signed up.  It’s rewarding for a couple of different reasons.  When I first meet and interview with potential members, not all of them, but many of them can be shy, quiet and reserved.  So when I see them out and about, socializing and having a great time, I feel like I’ve done my job!  

They are having the time of their lives, doing things they normally wouldn’t do.  From playing volleyball to learning new dance moves, going to local live music joints, to playing games and mingling while wearing the ugliest Christmas sweater they could find!  Witnessing all of this first hand, member smiling, laughing and cutting loose, means the world to me! Opening hearts and changing people’s lives is the best feeling in the world. Events And Adventures Phoenix

Monday.....Monday.......

Monday does not seem to be anyone’s favorite day around here, and for several reasons. F.O.U.R. more days of work. Events & Adventures has found a solution to the Monday Blues.  We have tried to make Monday evenings a little more enjoyable by doing something easy going, fun and something that everyone can participate in. Sometimes knowing that you don’t have cook dinner on a Monday night just might make your day a little bit brighter.  Knowing that you’re meeting up with friends is always a good thing too!  This past Monday we met up for a bit of mingling, along with some pretty amazing food and drinks at The Blind Pig.  With rave reviews of what The Blind Pig has to offer, we were all happy with our meals, their friendly service and the opportunity to just kick back and relax.   Instead of rushing home and trying to find something to throw together, we let the professionals take care of it for us while we enjoyed an easy going evening to close out our hectic Monday!

Flying Through The Air......

Flying through the air is one of the most exhilarating and scary feelings I’ve ever felt! A few weeks ago, I decided to take the chance and signed up for the Saturday morning Trapeze 101 class, not knowing what I was getting myself into! I think everyone who signed up was in the same boat though; as we were all excited out of our minds!  All I can say is that If you like a challenge with a “scary” THRILL then this is an event I would recommend for you!
Our group was given basic instruction, pointers by trained trapeze team, and plenty of support by the members watching on the ground! The trapeze team has incredible ability and is something to see in person if you haven’t! We then each took flying through the air, thankful for the net below! This is definitely something I would sign up for again and would recommend to anyone! Events And Adventures Phoenix

Another Awesome Trip To New York!


Traveling with E&A is awesome. Not only do they do all the planning work, but we get to hang out with members of the other cities. I had such a great time! For many of us it was our first time in New York City. I got to experience the city with friends not only from Dallas but also Minneapolis, San Jose and Vancouver. I met a bunch of new friends from other cities too. I love that E&A scheduled the best stuff for us. Carnegie Deli, Radio City and the Rockettes, Hop on & off bus tour, boat tour around Manhattan Island with a fabulous narrator that knew, well, everything about the city’s history. The holiday lights are awe-inspiring. We had time to do our own thing, too. We got discount tickets for Broadway shows. Spiderman Rocked! Visited the Empire State & Rockefeller buildings-WOW. Sat in the audience of my first TV show. Really cool. We ate all kinds of delicious food (think I’ll be paying for that for a while). How can you stop when it’s EVERYWHERE? Thank you so much for a great trip! I’ll remember it forever!

Karaoke With Friends!

Who doesn’t love singing at the top of their lungs – in a private karaoke room?!  Knowing everyone you’re singing in front of cuts the nerves down quite a bit, that’s for sure!  The last karaoke event we did was at Geisha A Go Go - where we had our very own private room, food & drink service and a TON of song options to pick from!
We had such a great time trying out and picking and choosing songs to sing, cheering our friends/members on, eating sushi , ordering drinks from our own personal room (instead of waiting at the bar to order) and hanging out and meeting new people!  Overall, it was a great time and something we’ll definitely go back and do again!

What Sign Are You?

I had a blast at the What Sign Are You? Party! When we arrived at the event location we were given a piece of paper with our individual astrology sign that included whatever our “likes and dislikes” are,  other signs you are compatible with and a name tag with your sign on it.  After looking over the information and putting the name tag on, we were off to the cocktail lounge to meet other singles that were also wearing the signs you are compatible with.

Needless to say I was able to meet A LOT of really cool people – some I had a lot in common with and others not so much, although they were really nice!  After that part of the event was done, we went down the street to a club that looked like it should have been in Las Vegas and continued to mingle with everyone there. From there we danced the night away! It was a great night! I able to socialize with like-minded people without being put on the spot or feeling like I was an unwelcome guest – because everyone was in the same situation as me! I met a lot of really great people and made some new friends! Events And Adventures Phoenix
