Drinking Skeptically

Hey all, we’re having another Pub night, again at Brown’s Brewery. It’ll be on Wednesday, 2 June at 6 PM. Come have a bite, have a beer (it is a brewery after all) and join our discussion.

Here’s the link.

We’ll be trying something new this time, and leaving a few minutes for people to give a casual talk about a skeptical or scientific subject. Please contact us if you’d like to raise a subject. Email link is on the sidebar.
If possible, please bring cash for the bill. It’d make things a lot easier when it’s time to settle up. And a little extra to chip into the group would be appreciated. That way we’ll have a few dollars to put toward future expenses.

Well we had our first Drinking Skeptically for Capital District Skeptics at Brown’s Brewery. The venue is undergoing some nice renovation that should make it an even better place to host groups.

Regular Meetups

Capital District Skeptics is going to start having regular meetups. Taking a cue from other groups, we’ll have alternating coffee house and pub nights. We’ll keep doing Wednesdays but we’ll push the time back to 7 PM.

In the coming months membership will be expanded and plans will be made to host events and talks, like SkeptiCamp. There’s even a Skeptics in the Wild camping trip in the works!

So the next meetup will be a Drinking Skeptically / Skeptics in the Pub at Brown’s Brewery in Troy, NY. It’s a place with great beer, great food, and plenty of space.
