A few General Guidelines for Walk to drink events:

1. Where possible events should be free and open to the general public. Location should be neighborhood oriented and convenient to walking and public transportation.  Check with your local public transportation offices! They might help promote the event and maybe help with funding! Cash bar etc...ok. Try asking participants to bring a favorite snack to ease the expense.

2. Storys told should reflect drinking of alcoholic beverages/pub experience... in a positive way. Stories can be of any kind, hopefully relating
   to cultural institutions relating to drinking, pubs etc....

4. If possible events should include all ages thus reflecting the traditional inclusion of the pub tradition of europe. Adult activities should be indicated as such in all publicity.

3. Where possible the audience should become actively involved.

4.  Where possible have our flyers on hand (click to download)

5.  Storytellers are encouraged to use the events as self promotion and to market their wares.
