The Party Scene

Golf Tournament

Wednesday, April 23
It’s a stereotype. All dentists golf. And if you can’t beat a stereotype, you might as well join. Townies enjoy a round of golf in scramble format at Desert Pines Golf Course to kick off the dental meeting of the year!
Cost: $200.

Wine and Cheese

Wednesday, April 23
Wine, cheese and a bevy of giddy Townies – can you think of a better trio? Didn’t think so.


Townies After Dark Opening Party

Thursday, April 24
Ready to stay up past your bedtime? This unslumber party means it’s socially acceptable to wear your favorite flannel pajamas and bunny slippers outside the house! The venue and open bar promises the perfect nightcap.



Wedding

Friday, April 25
Active Townie Natalie Peterson, or “JustNat” as you might know her, is tying the knot with her long-time partner Rick Kump at the first-ever Townie Meeting wedding! Dr. Howard Farran, Dentaltown founder and CEO will officiate.

Happy Hour

Friday, April 25
This wedding reception for “JustNat” includes cupcakes and drinks! It’s a chance to watch the final round of the poker tournament and wander the show floor to talk with exhibitors.

Poker Tournament

Friday, April 25
Play your hand at the annual Townie Meeting Texas Hold ‘Em Tournament. Preregister on TownieMeeting.com and then start practicing your poker face in front of the mirror. Cost: $250.

Beer Bash

Saturday, April 26
Don’t leave Townie Meeting without saying goodbye! Come have a beer with us at the Dentaltown Lounge during the Closing Beer Bash. Or maybe by this point in the week, you’d rather just have a club soda.
