Hey #ltwup, @bailann here.

The 2nd Lawrence Pub Crawl is scheduled for Saturday, May 1 in downtown Lawrence. I think it would be a lot of fun to have a #ltwup team and the fantastic Lawrence Tweetup committee agreed.

Entry fee ranges from $25 to $29 per person, depending on total number of participants on a team. I think we can definitely get 12 people but please let me know soon if you plan to join as the deadline to sign up is April 25 (or until they reach the max number of teams). I will register everyone’s email addresses (up to 12). The Lawrence Pub Crawl will then e-mail you information on how to pay the entry fee (which is the donation to the chairty) through their website.

If you have any questions or if you want to be a part of the team, DM me with your email address!

April Tweetup at Johnny’s Tavern West

Join your fellow social media enthusiasts for an evening Tweetup at Johnny’s Tavern West!

  • When: Wednesday, April 14
  • Time: 7 pm – 10 pm
  • Location: 721 Wakarusa Drive, Lawrence

Johnny’s Tavern has been a staple in Lawrence since 1953 when Mr. John Wilson opened the original Johnny’s Tavern across the river in North Lawrence. Over the past 30 years, Johnny’s has added seven additional locations, and it’s grown from an operation by two single guys who used to play rugby to a full-fledged family with eight partners. Six of the Johnny’s locations are in Kansas City, and in 2009 they crossed the Missouri border and added a tavern in the Power & Light District.

Johnny’s West in Lawrence also opened in 2009, in the former home of J.B. Stout’s Bar & Grill. This west side addition has all the great food we’ve come to expect from Johnny’s- pizza and burgers- along with some more upscale fare. Johnny’s West features 16 HD TV’s for all your game-watching (and live Twitter stream!) needs, and there’s not a bad seat in the house.

Find Johnny’s West on Facebook for current updates from the business. Johnny’s West doesn’t have a Twitter account, but you can follow the very active, fun, and friendly Johnny’s Prairie Village account.

RSVP using the Twtvite on the right side of the page, and we’ll see you on the 14th!
