May 3 @ 8:00 pm – 11:59 pm
May the… Third… be with you? Close enough!
It’s almost May the Fourth, so time to celebrate those space wizards and nerf herders from a galaxy far, far away. So don your robes, your sexy vests, your laser swords or your blocks of carbonite and join us in hyperspace.
But since it’s also “Nerd Month” at APEX, we’re expanding the theme to all multiverses of fandom! Red shirts? You can live long and prosper tonight. Fly around in a police box? It’s timey-wimey to party. Any other fandom from sci-fi, fantasy, or genre fiction is welcome too.
Cantina de Mayo Potluck
Many of our members love to share their Cinco de Mayo recipes and other treats on this weekend, so we’re making this a potluck party, too! Whether you have a Cinco de Mayo staple, or want to keep with the theme and serve up something out of this world, your culinary contributions will be most welcome! (Simple shareables like chips and soda is great, too.)
Standard (pay-per-event) members that contribute to the potluck also get a discount at the door! Details below.
About Themed Parties
Themed parties are just like our normal Saturday night parties–with a twist! It’s not uncommon to see costumes, decoration, scenes, and even share food that ties into the theme. Participation in themed party activities are completely optional. Access to dungeon space will remain the same as for any Saturday night party, and there won’t be any restrictions limiting any type of play normally allowed in the dungeon.
Every Saturday night, our club is open and the dungeon floor is waiting! With two floors, unique equipment, and the space to express yourself, you are assured of an exciting night at the dungeon! Come to play or socialize with your friends and make new ones!
Door Discount
We’re excited to offer our “potluck discount” for our Standard (pay-per-event) members who participate in the potluck!
Here’s how it will work for Standard Members:
- Bring some kind of shareable food or beverage item to the party.
- Pay just $5 for admission instead of the usual $15.
This is something new we’re trying for a number of different reasons:
- We’re putting many more events on the calendar recently. While long-term, we believe this is a reason for members to consider an All-Access membership, we still want to give all of our members, including pay-as-you-go members, a chance to enjoy more of our new social functions.
- Our usual amount of food and drink donations have not been able to keep up with increased demand. Participating in our potlucks and pantry drives helps our club and our community.
- Life is expensive these days! We know everyone has had to make choices to adjust, and this can make it more difficult to justify paying for social opportunities (even though we all need them so much!) So we hope that providing an occasional discount for admission to parties will help keep the entire APEX community strong and healthy.
As with every new thing we try, we’re always open to feedback and ways to make things even better. The best places to provide that feedback are via emailing us at contact@arizonapowerexchange.org or attending our monthly Executive Committee meetings.
