Summer blockbuster movies have begun, the pools are open, and those frozen spirits we all enjoy are just what we need to stay cool.  This First Friday is the perfect time to meet your friends and co-workers to share your summer plans at a new Dallas hot spot: Hully & Mo.

Hully & Mo

Join Vida Social this Friday, June 5, 7–10pm at Hully & Mo (2800 Routh St. – Dallas, TX  75201).

Near downtown, NHL Stars Brett Hull and Mike Modano own this brand new Dallas restaurant. We hope to see you there (hockey apparel is optional).

The time has come for you to bring your friends and spend time networking with your Vida Social colleagues.

Join us on Friday, April 3rd, 7pm-10pm at The Social House (3699 McKinney Ave in the West Village).

This Vida Social First Friday is a week before Easter, but do not fear, there will be no cascarones in the building.  Also, a friendly reminder that after our April event we will not have a First Friday until June, and in May we will be launching our Professional Development Series.

We’ll see you there!

Not only are we making changes to our event schedule, but we’re proudly introducing two new programs to the mix.

First, we will not be having a March event—our next First Friday will take place on April 3rd. For the month of March, we will be inviting all of you to send us your spring break and vacation pictures that we will post on VidaSocial.org

Secondly, we are excited to announce that this spring we are launching our Professional Development Series as well as our new community service program, Vida Volunteers.

As always, stay tuned to VidaSocial.org where we will provide you with the latest details. You can also contact us directly if you have any other questions.

We hope you will join us for what will be an exciting year!

Not only have we rung in a new year, but a new president as well. And if you’re like us, you’re still trying cling to those New Year’s resolutions (we’ll start them next week).

With that said, we would like to invite you to help us kick off our 2009 calendar. Please join us next Friday, February 6, from 7-10pm at Candleroom (5039 Willis Ave. – Dallas, TX 75206).

Our thanks to everyone who gave toys and donations as part of our Christmas toy drive. Your efforts ensured a brighter Christmas for a few lucky Dallas-area children and their families. And a special thank you to Exodus Ministries for their help as well.

As 2008 comes to a close, we would like to wish each and everyone of you a safe and happy holiday season. May Santa bring you everything you asked for and may it be the right size and color.

Finally, before we go, we’d like to take a moment to thank our sponsor Bud Light. Without their support, none of this would be possible.

Bud Light

See you in February!

This year, we will be partnering with Exodus Ministries to collect toys for Dallas-area children. As part of this, we are asking that each of you bring at least one new and unwrapped toy to the event (if you are unable to bring a toy, we will also accept cash or check donations). Your efforts will ensure that some lucky children will wake up to a truly special Christmas morning.

We’ll see you there!

To set the record, Vida Social does not endorse any one candidate or party.  But as U.S. citizens we cannot afford to sit on the sidelines. The next president will, among many other things, appoint at least one Supreme Court Justice, handle the economic crisis, and steer the course of our national and international interests.  Who best represents your interests?  From the top of the ballot to the bottom, it is our civic duty to vote.

Vida Social wants to facilitate the voting process by providing the information you need to make an informed decision. This is why we created Vida Votes.

As you may know, early voting has begun.  Please visit Vida Votes to find more information on voting locations. And remember, during early voting you can vote at any location in the county in which you are registered.  Take a friend and go vote.

See you in the voting booth.
