JULY RECAP

July Membership Mixer: Backpack to School Drive Success

On July 31, ASA and the ASA Young Professionals Group (YPG) joined forces to host our annual Backpack to School Drive at Little Woodrow’s Stone Oak. From 4–6 p.m., more than 150 attendees came together to connect, network, and support a great cause.


Thanks to the incredible generosity of our members and guests—especially through raffle ticket purchases—we were able to donate 80 backpacks filled with essential school supplies to The Madonna Neighborhood Center. This contribution will help local students start the school year prepared and confident.


A heartfelt thank you to Robles1 Demolition for sponsoring the mixer and making this event possible. Your support helped us create an evening that was both fun and impactful.


Events like this remind us that when we come together as a community, we can make a real difference—one backpack at a time!

Mark your calendars for Thursday, September 25th from 4:00 to 7:00 PM at Aggie Park, because the ASA Pour-Off Mixer is back and promises an evening full of energy, laughter, and great connections. This popular event blends networking with a friendly competition as teams showcase their mixology skills in the highly anticipated “Pour-Off.” Guests can look forward to a lively atmosphere with plenty of food, drinks, and opportunities to mingle with peers across the industry.


The evening will include dinner, drinks, and door prizes, all included with your ticket. A highlight of the night is the Pour-Off Competition, where teams will show off their creativity in both frozen and non-frozen drink categories. Attendees can sample entries, cast their votes for people’s choice, and see who walks away with the top honors. Raffle drawings and best booth awards will add even more excitement, ensuring everyone has a chance to go home a winner.
