The Vibe
Dive in! We’re taking over the incredible backyard of Jack Shepler and Ben Ochs in 46236 for our annual daytime pool party! It’s an Indoor/Outdoor/Patio extravaganza with resort-level energy. Rain or shine, we are Intentionally Welcoming - you don’t have to swim, but you do have to have a great time! Come soak up the sun and the good vibes.
The Crowd & Theme
This is The Aqua Social, and we want you to bring the shade—literally! Top off your look with a Statement Sun Hat or Fedora. It’s chic, it’s cool, and it’s the perfect conversation starter. The dress code is "Poolside Chic," so wear what makes you feel fabulous, whether that’s a caftan, trunks, shorts, or a polo.
The Spread
We’ve got the perfect snacks for grazing while you groove to DJ Jackola. Enjoy crisp Cocktail Cucumbers, a fresh Fruit Bowl, and Pita Chips with Hummus. It’s light, easy, and delicious. And yes, the bar is open!
The Pour
The pitch-in is the only thing you need to bring! Since the club provides the full food spread, we ask everyone bring a $15 bottle of wine or a premium non-alcoholic drink to share. Non-drinkers are welcome too!
The Mission
Let’s Socialize in the sunshine! Partner with us to turn a pool party into a purpose party. Network with old friends and make new ones as we splash into the afternoon.
Take a peek at our extremely short Mission Statement to see how we make every voice count.
COMMUNITY MATTERS
The Diversity Wine Club is more than just a social gathering. It is a space where we grow together. We are honored to welcome Alan Witchey, CEO of Damien Center, to our Community Matters Speaker Series. You will have fifteen minutes to hear directly from a leader dedicated to holistic wellness and the health of our city.
WE GIVE BACK to ensure our community has access to vital HIV/AIDS care and prevention resources. Your presence helps keep our community healthy, safe, and thriving. Proceeds from this Event benefit our Charity Partnership with the Damien Center. Your attendance helps fuel this vital work!
Our Heartfelt Thanks
An event of this scale is only possible thanks to the dedication of our incredible team. We are fueled by the energy of nearly 40 volunteers who bring our mission to life. To everyone who gave their time and talent to make this specific event a success: Thank you.
