Alpha Chi Night Out

Picture
Picture
As part of Healthy Relationships Week, alumnae worldwide are invited to come together for Alpha Chi Omega Night Out to connect with one another and celebrate our sisterhood. Join Kappa Omicron Kappa for axe throwing followed by food, drinks and fun!

Wild Barrel Brewing is attached to the axe throwing location and there will be a taco food truck on site.

Meet us at SoCal Axe at 6:30pm
Wild Barrel Brewing at 7:00pm

Don't want to throw an axe? Come to watch and join us for tacos & beer after. If you don't want to axe throw or watch, meet us anytime after 7pm at Wild Barrel Brewing.

The cost for axe throwing ($20 for 1/2 hour) is being covered by a KOK chapter member, but you need to RSVP as YES for axe throwing ASAP. When you RSVP, state that you will be axe throwing.

Don't know about axe throwing? Check out https://youtu.be/3wbi6AlOTt4

If that is boring to watch, enjoy Jason Momoa raising money with Ellen for his charity - https://youtu.be/MCpxUjx-33E
