Directions

As the SMPS season springs into May, here’s a chance to catch up with peers and meet new connections in a relaxed and fun environment!

Our May SMPS Thirsty Thursday networking event is at Woodward Avenue Brewers (the "WAB”) in Ferndale. A landmark brewpub on Woodward Avenue since 1997, the WAB is renowned for its delightful selection of Belgian Ales, Lagers and Stouts & Porters. Its food selections include delicious appetizers (compliments of your SMPS-Michigan chapter), as well as big-bowl salads, famous turkey chili and flatbread pizzas. 

Of course, beer and food is only part of the Thirsty Thursday experience. This alternative event track complements our conventional programming, providing an ideal way to introduce colleagues, assistants, bosses and friends to the SMPS community with no registration fee. Appetizers are provided, compliments of the Michigan chapter.

Come pumped. Come thirsty!

 

Parking:
Metered parking is available in the lot behind the WAB as well as on surrounding streets and nearby municipal lots.
