SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!

Due to the forecast of rain on Sunday, the location has been changed to Blank Space Events Denton at 521 S Loop 288 Suite 145, Denton, TX 76205. It's only an 8-minute drive from our original location. It is indoors and has plenty of space and parking for everyone. Please note the new location. We look forward to seeing you there!
