Okay, it's time for our next young Asian professionals happy hour!

Spread the word, mix and mingle with new and familiar faces, have some fun, and help support a good cause!... suggested $5 - 10 donation.

We'll be benefiting Asian American Success, a non-profit organization with the mission to create an environment where professionals and students learn from each other and exchange resources... http://aasuccess.org/... Please note 80% of proceeds will go to AASuccess, the remaining 20% will go to the 20s & 30s Asian group to cover Meetup fees and expenses. The groups that will be joining us:

20s & 30s Asian Going Out Group
OCA-YP
OCA-NOVA
Vietnamese Professionals
Washington Area Japanese Culture
UNA-NCA YPIC Asia-Pacific Committee
Fun Korean & Culture
NOVA Chinese Language
Chinatown Community Cultural Center

DJ Teng will be spinning loungy groovy beats for us. Our happy hours typically bring out 100 - 200 people, and I wouldn't be surprised with a similar turnout this time around. For those that haven't been there before, Modern features low couches, a deep sunken bar surrounded by ottomans, and shimmering white curtains. See www.modern-dc.com.

To help continue the friendly tone of this group... I'd like to again encourage everyone to have a GOAL OF MEETING 3 NEW PEOPLE at this event. Also, 20s & 30s Asian Rockstars, please help make all the newcomers feel welcome to our group!

- J.T.

Closest Metro is Rossyln (Orange and Blue lines), ~15 minute walk across Key bridge. I suggest metro / cabbing it (esp. during rush hour), recommend using wmata for travel plans.
