Koozie Contest

Posted on Updated on

C.I.B. Koozies

Today, we are having our first ever photo contest. For you Crawlers that have attended all four crawls featuring the koozie giveaways, you will have an edge. Three winners will receive a gift certificate to JA Stats located at 99 Broad Street in Boston.

The contest is easy, send a photo of you and the 4 koozies that were given out this year (Birthday Crawl, Pirate Crawl, Halloween Crawl and Christmas Crawl) to crawlinboston@gmail.com by midnight tomorrow, 12/13/09. We will choose the winners from the submissions at random.

If you don’t have all four koozies, you still may be in luck. If we don’t receive photos from three different people with the four koozie set, we will draw names from the people who send in pictures with three koozies.

Thanks and have a fantastic weekend -C.I.B.

12 Bars of Christmas Update

Posted on Updated on

Hey Crawlers,

We are just days away from the 4th Annual 12 Bars of Christmas presented by Crawl In Boston. Back on December 17th 2005, a few dozen of us joined at the Greatest Bar to kickoff the initial gathering. Among the guests were two acquaintances that met and I’m proud to say this past August I attended their wedding. We’re looking forward to some more great memories this weekend.

We have 400 koozies and plenty of nametags. We’ll have stations set up at each bar where you can get your goodies and make your optional $5 (or more!) donation to the Horizons for Homeless Children Charity. Your donations mean so much especially during the holiday season. We will have very limited change available so please have the exact number of money you want to donate available.

There’s been a lot of interest in this event. In the past week alone, we’ve received many mentions in the press including the Boston Herald, Stuff Magazine and Lola. At last look, we’re over 750 confirmed and 900 maybe. Obviously there’s no bar in Boston that can accommodate that number of people at the same time. All the bars have been notified and will be staffed accordingly all day. However, please think of the released schedule as an outline. The Crawl In Boston team is going to stay on it as best as possible for nametags and koozies but we may not be able to get into some places at the correct time due to capacity issues. But as long as everyone keeps their holiday spirit, we’ll all have an amazing time.

Looking forward to seeing you and your awesome holiday outfits

Cheers! -C.I.B.

Crawl in Boston 12 Bars LogoPlease join Crawl in Boston to tour the Faneuil Hall area. We’re excited to once again bringing you the 12 Bars of Christmas.

Here’s some good information to know:

* Optional donation to crawl with us – Crawl in Boston wants to provide you with as much fun as possible for as little as possible! – Crawlers are responsible for their own drinks.

Who is Crawl in Boston?

Crawl in Boston is a social networking group that gives professionals a chance to meet new people in a casual and fun atmosphere. People of all ages have gathered to join the bar crawls, and we’ve raised money and goods for local charities. We also spread the word about other similar events we’ve heard about, as well as new places and bar/restaurant specials. We’re bringing people together, one drink at a time for local charities.

Who are Horizons for Homeless Children?

They help children learn how to play, to share, to read, and to enjoy exploring their worlds. They help parents learn how to be nurturing and involved in the growth and development of their children, and help them learn and grow through job training, GED and college courses. They help to stabilize families so that they can weather any crisis, and thus help to break the cycle of homelessness that too often occurs.

What does this event cost?

We are asking for $5.00 to attend. Please keep in mind that proceeds of your optional donation will go towards the Horizons for Homeless Children charity. However everyone who donates will also be receiving:

*Crawl in Boston Nametag
*Crawl in Boston Beverage Koozie (limited to 1st 400 people)

Multiple bars will also be providing free appetizers to donating crawlers

How Do I Sign Up?
