BAF Mixer: Three Ounces + Ice

The Boise Advertising Federation kicks off the 2011 / 2012 season with a mixer / social event this Wednesday, September 14th at Solid in downtown Boise.

The no-host bar event runs from 5:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. Admission is free for BAF members and $5 for non-members (although I’d be willing to bet they’d let you in for free if you become a member at the door — but I could be wrong).
