🔥 The Fire | Fireside Connection

\To be able to attend this event, you must have attended one other Ground Men Denver event\

End the week with an opportunity to slow down before the week begins, enjoy a fire, and have the kinds of conversations that don't usually happen in passing.
Some conversations might stay light. Others might go deeper. There's no expectation either way. If we're laughing around the fire for two hours, that's a great night too.

The only rules are no judging or shaming whatever a man is sharing with the group, and advice may only be given if the man sharing specifically asks for it. Also, you must maintain confidentiality of what is said in this group. That's it.

Come by for a little while or stay the whole evening.

📅 The Plan

6:30 PM | Arrive
We'll gather around the fire, grab a seat, meet a few new faces, and let the evening unfold naturally. There isn't a schedule beyond that.

We'll wrap up around 9:00 PM, but you're welcome to head home whenever you'd like.

🔥 What to Bring

Your favorite drink
A snack, fruit, or dessert to share (optional)
A sweatshirt or jacket once the sun goes down

📍 Location

We'll be meeting at my home located on the west side of Lakewood, near Green Mountain. (my address will be sent 24-48 hours prior to those who rsvp)

I live in a quiet cul-de-sac with plenty of street parking, but please be mindful of the neighbors' driveways as cul-de-sacs make for weird angles for parking. Walk to either side of the house and enter through the fence.

I do have a sweet and friendly dog named Roxanne who may be hovering around and asking for snacks.

The address will be sent to everyone who RSVPs and has been vetted to have attended one other event prior.

🔥 A Few Ground Rules

Because conversations at these gatherings can sometimes become more personal, there are three expectations:

No judgment or shaming.
A man should be able to share something without being criticized or made to feel smaller for it.

Advice only when it's asked for.
Sometimes someone needs perspective. Sometimes they just need people to listen. Let the person sharing decide what they need.

What's shared here stays here.
You're always free to talk about your own experience afterward, but another man's story isn't yours to share.

That's it.
