A frequently asked question we hear at the Downtown CDC is "Do I have to live downtown to attend events?" Not at all. We believe downtown is a unique neighborhood and all roads lead here. So feel free to join us at all of our events.
Downtown CDC's Third Tuesday Happy Hour is at Vallozzi's on July 16th.
Special to this month, all attendees can enjoy the complimentary eats that the host restaurant provides. For July's Third Tuesday Happy Hour, Vallozzi's has decided that anyone who attends can partake in the bites made specially for Downtown CDC members. There will also be a free raffle for restaurant gift certificates and two tickets to Rock of Ages at the Benedum Theater.
Come and enjoy a summer party with friends from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. We look forward to seeing you.
