No One is Coming. Let’s do it Ourselves – A documentary screening and workshop

Fast Friends Beer Company

RSVP

When an Army vet in a town crushed by the opioid crisis decided no one was coming to save them, he stopped waiting and started building.

Saturday, September 26th from 3–6 PM, we’re screening Small Town Strong, the documentary that proves ordinary people with enough conviction can change everything; we’re putting that same energy to work.

Following the film, we move into a 90-minute workshop where you’ll identify Austin’s most urgent unaddressed problems, build real solutions, and lock in the people in your network to make change happen.

This is for veterans, builders, gym owners, action takers and anyone who is done talking about what’s wrong and ready to do something about it. Come to Fast Friends Beer Company and leave with a mission.

Not sure what you’re signing up for? Watch the trailer here → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdAVojEYbLM — then come ready to participate.

Food and beverages are included, with a two-drink limit on alcohol. We’re hosting at Fast Friends Beer Company, an incredible venue right off I-35, easy to get to from anywhere in Austin.

About the Austin Chapter

Across cities and towns just like yours nationwide, we serve our communities by starting with bringing different neighbors together for events centered around Service, Leadership, and Civics.

By rolling up our sleeves side-by-side, we can begin to see that we have more in common than what divides us; that first and foremost we are fellow Americans with a common love for our families and communities.

These Chapters – also known as our Brickyards – are mobile places for neighbors to connect and solve local problems. We do this through respectful and open conversations, and to find higher ground as we work together brick-by-brick.
