More?
Sociable (noun)* so·cia·ble \sō-shə-bəl\
*(Familiarity information: SOCIABLE
used as a noun is very rare.)
Definition: a party of people assembled to promote
sociability and communal activity.
You may have heard or read about Sociables more
than a few times here in West U, and were wondering what all the buzz is about.
The Friends of West U Parks provide residents the opportunity to mingle with
their West U friends and meet new ones at the various Sociable events given
throughout the year. The themes of the Sociables vary from wine tastings
and crawfish boils to cookie making and margarita parties for moms! The Sociable
sizes range from intimate to large. The nominal fee to attend these events goes
right back to your community by funding projects supported by the Friends of
West U Parks.
