We spent decades being told how to ring in the new year (family prayer, root beer, church clothes at midnight). This year we’re doing it OUR way.
What to expect:
• Champagne (or sparkling cider) toast at midnight — garments optional, swearing mandatory
• “Burn the Shelf” ceremony at 11:11 PM: Write down one belief, rule, or trauma you’re leaving in 2025 and toss it in the fire pit (paper only, please!)
• Playlist of all the songs we weren’t allowed to listen to growing up
• Mocktail + cocktail bar (BYOB or group-funded) Karaoke, board games, and zero talks about goals involving temple attendance
• Kid-free, guilt-free, judgment-free
Cost: $10–20 suggested donation (covers apps, decorations, champagne, fire pit stuff).
How to Drink Like an Adult” Mini-Class
We’ll taste 6 classic drinks (explained below) with tiny 1-oz pours so you learn without getting wrecked.�You’ll finally understand what “dry,” “neat,” “rocks,” “dirty,” and “top shelf” actually mean.
Open bar, music, dancing, board games, photo booth (“Hold up your temple recommend — now rip it!”)
• Midnight → Champagne toast to 2026 + fireworks on the patio, porch.
•Watch fireworks 360° view so you can see SLC’s city fireworks in the distance with music, loud laughter
