Featured Event: Green Drinks

What is Green Drinks Indiana? It’s a networking and happy hour that generally occurs on the fourth Wednesday of every month at 5:30 pm. Each event will be held at a different location and benefit a different, local, environmentally friendly or “green” project or organization. The vibe will be informal, fun, and the aim is for you to meet like-minded locals while supporting a great cause! RSVP's are not required but encouraged so we can get an accurate count of how many are coming.

Does it cost anything to attend? No, but we suggest a donation of $5-$20 with all proceeds benefitting a local organization or ‘green’ cause. We’ll provide light refreshments, but you will be responsible for purchasing your choice of beverage from the selection that each local establishment has to offer!
