The Experience, Emeryville: Tipsy Putt Fundraiser

The Experience:

Get your putters ready & take a swing at hunger!

Sip, putt, enjoy a taco and help fight hunger. Tipsy Putt, Emeryville’s popular mini golf bar & restaurant, has partnered with Move for Hunger and AVE to host a golf tournament for a good cause.

The tournament, with various levels of competition, begins at 2pm on Thursday, August 17, at Tipsy Putt at Bay St to benefit Move for Hunger, a nonprofit dedicated to reducing food waste and providing meals for those in need in our community.

 Tipsy Putt will also conduct a food drive throughout the month of August, naming Move for Hunger as its Sunday FundDay recipient. For every beer and game of golf, Tipsy Putt will donate $1 to Move for Hunger during August. Sponsors are still needed for this Par-tee with a purpose fundraiser.

The Tipsy Putt bar serves up 40 taps of local craft beer including Emeryville’s own Wondrous Brewing beer, as well as tasty bites – tacos, nachos and more. Their mini golf course is challenging and great fun for groups, young ones until 5pm and 21+ after 5.  You’ll find Tipsy Putt at the north end of Bay St  across from Hyatt Place. (510) 356-8222.

Move for Hunger is a nonprofit that mobilizes delivery of  ‘rescued’ food to food banks and pantries. Their network of socially-responsible relocation companies provides their customers, clients, and residents with the opportunity to donate their food when they move.

The Experience:

Ohana grows its footprint!

When we were out touring Emeryville, we happened upon Nasser Azimi, president of Ohana Cannabis, and he had some great news for us. They have now opened up shop across the Bay.

According to Nasser, “Ohana Cannabis expanded its Emeryville flagship success into San Francisco, Sacramento, Palm Springs, and soon, into the Grand Lake area of Oakland!”

One of the elements propelling their success as we know in Emeryville is that their Cannabis Consultants are experienced and knowledgeable about both therapeutic and recreational products. Ask a question and they explain the product’s use and proper application and teach you about micro-dosing to get the best result. They are there for you and the experience you desire.

And now our friends across the Bay can have this experience as new customers. Their dispensary is located at 1256 Mission St, near Civic Center in SF and is open daily from 12-8pm.

Congrats, Ohana! You have also been so generous with the Emeryville community. Inviting all of us to join you and Cafe Rack at fun gatherings and community-building endeavors!
