It was a night filled with fresh beats provided by TheeDopeShow, smiles, wine, delicious coffee supplied by It’s A Grind, good conversations, wonderful contacts, and awesome 562CityLife hoodies for raffle (thanks to Red Eye Media).

Especially to the Connected Corridor...glad I learned more about this organization. Wonderful things being produced!

Really awesome night! Thank you so much to everyone for making it out. Thank you Juls for working the table, thanks to Thee Dope Show, for setting the atmosphere with the music, good job TheMan with organizing the whole event! Sander, Juls and I especially know how much it takes to step away from the very important family time, so your time is sincerely even extra valued!
So, how can we push forward to truly capitalize on the connection building and work together at making the LB Community even greater????
Oh yea, and it was cool to meet City Lifers face to face and meet NEW people. It wasn't the "usual suspects." New people were making some strong connections.
