- **Event Description**: Beaverdale May Neighborhood Social – Neighborhood Helpers Night at the Better Business Bureau! 

You’re invited to our May Beaverdale Neighborhood Social, and this month we’re exploring what it means to be a "helper" as a neighbor, and have an opportunity to thank helpers we want to recognize. 

Join the Beaverdale Neighborhood Association and the Better Business Bureau on May 6 from 6:00–8:00 PM for a relaxed, family-friendly evening of connection, creativity, and community.

These monthly 1st Wednesday of the Month Socials are part of the BNA’s new Engagement Committee initiative, created to bring neighbors together in real life as part of the association’s strategic plan. While these events are a perk of BNA membership, all neighbors are welcome to attend, meet people, and learn more about the Beaverdale Neighborhood Association.

This month, we’ll be gathering at the Better Business Bureau, giving neighbors a great opportunity to connect with business members of our community as well as neighbors. Small bites and drinks will be provided.

Here's more details and what to expect: 

FAQs:

When should I arrive?

Will there be food and drinks?
Yes! The BBB and the BNA will be providing light bites for attendees as well as  canned beer, wine, and sparkling drinks.

Can I come alone?
Absolutely. Many neighbors attend solo... the event is designed to make it easy to meet people.

Is this family friendly?
Yes! All ages are welcome. Please note that this is not childcare, and children must be accompanied by a parent, guardian, or older sibling. The program is especially intended for ages 5-95, and we will do our best to encourage particiaption at any age or stage.

Just a light structure for the evening: a short social program (This month's theme is Neighborhood Helpers) with open mingling and crafts. The goal is simple: helping neighbors connect.

Do I need to RSVP?
No RSVP is required. However, if you’re able to mark that you’re attending on the event page, it helps us plan supplies and food.

How can I help? 
We LOVE that neighbors have asked this. What we really need is your presence, participation, and for you to invite a friend or two. Please show up and help spread the word - invite a neighbor! ❤️

Can my business or organization sponsor or host one of these events? 
Possibly! We are exploring ways to engage with our business neighbors and we want to spread the Beaverdale Neighbor love. If you are interested in hosting or sponsoring please email Amanda at amanda@keepsocialmediasocial.com. 

How can I get involved in these as a volunteer?
This programming is provided by our Engagement Committee and this initiative is being led by your neighbor, Amanda. The commitee and individual volunteers are providing their time, talent, and treasures to put these on. If you want to help or want to provide materials, you can email Amanda at amanda@keepsocialmediasocial.com. We welcome new committee members, creative ideas, and helping hands! 

Whether you love meeting new people or tend to be a little more introverted, this event is designed to make connecting comfortable and welcoming.

If you’re not very social, that’s okay! We have plenty of friendly neighbors ready to help make you feel welcome.
If you’re very social, come help us make sure everyone feels included.

Come by for 20 minutes or stay the whole evening,  we’d love to see you!
