DESCRIPTION:Hello to all my hot and heavy friends!\n\nJune means we return 
 once more to Banneker Pool in DC followed by AYCE KBBQ at Gogi Yogi to kic
 k off Pride Month! This has been a regular event for us\, and with summer 
 starting off hot already\, a pool day is well called for. We will spend th
 e afternoon at the pool prior to heading to get KBBQ by 5:00PM. It is high
 ly suggested you get something to eat prior to coming to the pool\, as the
  pool only allows snack foods and resealable drink containers and does not
  have anything on offer. Also bring sunscreen\, as shade can be limited! W
 e will aim to arrive at the pool around 11-11:30AM and begin packing up to
  leave around 4PM to allow everyone time to change and get to Gogi Yogi\n\
 nIf you are planning to join for KBBQ\, please inform the organizer (FatTr
 ainNerd) NO LATER THAN JUNE 3RD to allow for adequate time to update the r
 eservation. We tend to have a larger party\, so we need to plan in advance
 ! For costs for the pool and KBBQ\, see the cost section down below.\n\nIf
  you are interested in joining the Discord group to keep up to date on thi
 s event and future events\, again contact FatTrainNerd for an invite. All 
 planning for future DC Grommoffs is done via this group\, so it is highly 
 suggested to join to make your voice heard regarding suggestions for event
 s and when they happen! We are currently working to follow a rotating patt
 ern of events between DC\, MD and VA\, so we are always looking for sugges
 tions of places to go. It is also a great place to find folks to go to oth
 er local events with!\n\n---\n\nEvent Costs:\n\nPool Access - For DC Resid
 ents\, access to the pool is free\, simply bring your DC Photo ID and pres
 ent it at the check-in. For non-DC residents\, you must purchase a pass. A
  day pass is $7. To purchase a pass go to https://dcwashingtonweb.myvsclou

  Address - 2500 Georgia Ave NW\, Washington\, DC 20001 https://maps.app.go
 o.gl/GciFKguE6Xd3cCcS9\n\nGogi Yogi Address - 1921 8th St NW #115\, Washin
 gton\, DC 20001 https://maps.app.goo.gl/fJHoLDYTEkYGH1nR9\n\nIf taking Met
 ro\, Banneker is approximately 7 blocks north of the north exit of Shaw Ho
 ward University Metro Station\, which is on the Green Line. Gogi Yogi is a
 bout 3 blocks away from the same station.\n\nIf driving\, keep in mind str
 eet parking is limited\, but generally available\, particularly around How
 ard University.\n\n---\n\nWhen arriving for the event:\n\nBanneker is fair
 ly strict about swimsuits only in the pool. You must change into a swimsui
 t and cannot wear regular clothes into the pool at all. DC is fairly direc
 t in enforcing this rule\, so please be aware of it. If there is poor weat
 her on the day of the event\, we will cancel the pool portion and look at 
 just meeting for food at Gogi Yogi. Be sure to check this event page as we
 ll as the Discord the day of.\n\nAdditionally if you have plans to go to U
 proar after swimming and KBBQ\, please keep in mind bags/backpacks are not
  allowed in Uproar and there is no coat check for them generally. Other at
 tendees that plan to go to Uproar after the event may be willing to allow 
 you to store your bags in their car\, but please be aware this isn't guara
 nteed and you need to plan accordingly.\n\n---\n\nGrommOffs are independen
 tly organized by members who've been vetted and approved as organizers\, a
 nd who abide by a set of GrommOff Ground Rules which can be read in the Su
 pport link above. If you believe that these rules were not followed\, plea
 se contact the GrommOff account here: \nhttps://grokio.atlassian.net/servi
 cedesk/customer/portal/4/topic/3ab9d4b8-c5d9-4822-a936-64a17a41150f/articl
 e/181731339\n\nPlease note well the following rules for Grommoffs:\n\n1. R
 espect personal space of the group and others.\nAlways ask before encroach
 ing on other's space\, especially with people new to you and the group. If
  asked to stop or give space\, respect this. Failure to do so will result 
 in being asked to leave and potentially being barred from future events.\n
 \n2. Absolutely no racism\, misogyny\, ableism\, homophobia\, transphobia 
 or other bigotry!\nThis shouldn't have to be said\, but bigotry will not b
 e tolerated at any Grokio events.\n\n3. Respect the discretion of the grou
 p in public\nOftentimes\, gatherings are held in public places (restaurant
 s\, parks\, beaches\, bowling alleys\, etc.) and there will be other peopl
 e nearby. Be aware that loud voices travel—if you’re talking about sensiti
 ve or potentially embarrassing topics\, use your inside voice. Similarly\,
  a public place is not appropriate for intimacy or sexualized touching. Ev
 en if the other person is comfortable with it\, respect that you’re with a
  group in a public place and hold off until you have more privacy. Additio
 nally\, be mindful when taking photos/video at the event and allow for mem
 bers to bow out or turn their heads if they do not wish to be recorded/pho
 tographed.\n\n4. Illegal drug/alcohol use is not allowed\nThe use of drugs
  that are illegal in the local jurisdiction before or during a Grokio Comm
 unity Gathering is strictly forbidden\, as is the consumption of alcohol b
 y those under the legal age in the local jurisdiction.\n\n5. Guests from o
 utside the community are only allowed with prior approval\nWe know that at
 tending a GrommOff\, Feabie Meet or Ferzu Event for the first time can be 
 scary\, but bringing along a friend from outside the community for support
  can make others feel uncomfortable and force them to edit themselves the 
 way they do in the real world (the goal of our gatherings is to let everyo
 ne stop editing!) If you absolutely must bring a friend from outside the c
 ommunity and you are confident they will know how to behave appropriately\
 , you must clear it with the organizer BEFORE the event. Any portion of a 
 gathering occurring in a bar or pub is excepted from this rule.\n\nEvent d
