[the hodown]

 Why must I Request To Join?

The HoDowns are NOT a free-for-all events where you can do whatever you like. We have rules and guidelines set up for your safety, the safety of others, and ours alike. The website provides these rules and completing the signup acknowledges you've read the rules. By you attending you agree to keep these rules. Because of these rules, The HoDown has remained functioning since 2010.

Having 1 place that provides ALL the information you need and 1 way of sending information ensures everyone is receiving the same information in the same way. This prevents confusion and misinformation from spreading while providing consistent and uniform information. It's a system that has worked effectively for sending invitations and providing uniform information to everyone at the same time!

Grindr, Jack'd, Scruff, Tinder, FET, Sniffies and many other dating/networking apps/websites discourage talk of events. So we refer you to this website that will answer any questions you may have. The staff is busy working as hopefully you are. This site was made so you have NO NEED to message the host. It's pretty well known that folk don't like reading much, but to attend this event, reading is what you must do. If you email us asking questions, you will be redirected back to the website and advised to read through. There's a search bar to the right you can use to help you find any piece of information you need, USE IT!!!

You can sign up for All-Male events, CoEd events or BOTH of them! To get an invitation to any event, YOU MUST REQUEST TO JOIN! Then you must wait to be approved. It's an application not a right of passage! We accept a wide array of guests and all are encouraged to apply. 

Once you are approved, we add you to the event list you signed up for. It's YOUR responsibility to check your emails and text messages. The event invitation will have all the information you need to arrive at our front door. You must READ the information and use the links to guide you here. You're given everything you need, but it's useless if you don't read it!
