About Event

Happy November! Thanksgiving is right around the corner and if you want to celebrate Friendsgiving, come meet up with us at Mission Dolores. Friendsgiving where instead of attending a potluck with your 10+ closest friends, this is attending a picnic with friends you haven't met yet.

Rules:

  • Bring some food to share with new friends

  • ​No talking about tech or work

  • ​No pitching your startup

  • ​Say hi to at least 3 people (more of a suggestion)

  • ​No connecting on Linkedin. Other social medias and phone numbers are OK!

Dolores Park, Dolores St &, 19th St, San Francisco, CA 94114, USA

​Tired of going to networking events and meeting hundreds of people, but not actually...making friends? Tech is such an extroverted industry, but so many people still feel lonely.

​This is a park meetup for people in tech (or not in tech!) who want to make an actual friend and meet people with no strings attached (i.e. pitching your startup to everyone that says hi to you).

​Meeting people with no agenda is hard for just about everyone (unless you're an extreme extrovert), so we'll have some games and activities to facilitate conversation.

What to bring:

  • ​Picnic blanket or lawn chair

  • Alcoholic drinks (wine, beer, seltzers)

  • Non-alcoholic beer/drinks

  • ​Your fav snack to contribute to snack table (popcorn, chips, soda, whatever)

  • Paper plates, napkins, forks, paper towels

  • ​Frisbee, spikeball, football, etc. (we'll have stuff, too)

  • Please message the host if you have a picnic table or a speaker you can bring :)

  • ​Willingness to get out of your comfort zone!!!

Where to meet:

​We’ll be on the right side of the path, in the flat area towards the bottom of the hill! I’ll add more descriptions day of, but for now here’s a photo of the approximate area: https://imgur.com/a/ZRg9kKy
