Testimonials

" Great to see an event like [Prowl] in New Hampshire. Really cool to meet new folks in similar and adjacent communities. The overall attendee experience went well from the ticket purchase, to event arrival, to the bartenders, DJ, and photographer. "

- Prowl 10 Attendee

" The [Prowl] venue was amazing and everyone that I met was equally amazing there was a lot of space to move around, the dance floor and music was good, and the bar wasn't too crowded. The space for storing suits and gear was a welcome surprise and I'm sure you all know how appreciated we are that there is a safe place to put things down and cool off. "

- Prowl 10 Attendee

" It was so much fun! It was me, and my pack's first time being able to attend [Prowl]. We tried in the past, but tickets sold out so fast, we couldn't get in. We loved the venue! Was great that there was a dance floor/great music, but it was large enough for people to have place to get together and actually talk/hang out. It was extremely well organized. We also thought it was great that for those with suits, you had the whole changing area. "

- Prowl 10 Attendee

" I enjoyed the safety of [Prowl]. The staff were kind and seemed to genuinely want us there. Being initially led to the changing room was a nice touch. "

- Prowl 10 Attendee

" The hostess/venue staff that greeted the guests upon entry and oriented them to the venue’s facilities was fantastic and helped me feel super welcome - she helped set the tone for each guest and was a huge part of my initial comfort in the setting.

Great venue, good signage, appreciated the gender neutral restrooms, good drinks, great venue staff, good music volume levels, plenty of space for distinct social levels (conversation pits vs casual chatter) "

" Love the “Photo Booth.” I know some ppl pay hundreds of dollars for their pup gear and fur suits, and I think it gives them an awesome opportunity to get professional pics if they don’t have them. "
