  The Bay Area is famous for its artisanal bakeries and fog-kissed parks—so why not enjoy both while connecting with fellow alumni?

  
  

  Join us for a relaxed, family-friendly meetup where we share croissants, conversation, and childcare tips & tricks while the little ones play. Select pastries will be provided, but please feel free to bring your own snacks as desired!

  To ensure a safe and comfortable environment for children, we kindly ask that pets stay at home.

  WHEN

  Saturday, November 1, 10am-12pm 

  LOCATION

  Lafayette Park, San Francisco (Picnic Tables near the Playground)

  Gough St & Washington St, San Francisco, CA 94109

  What’s included

  • Croissants

  • Coffee

  TRANSPORTATION

  By bus: The easiest way is Muni Line 1 — it drops you right at the park entrance on California Street, just steps from the playground and picnic tables. Other nearby options are the 24 Divisadero, 49 Van Ness/Mission, and 27 Bryant.

  By car: Street parking can be tricky, so come early. Best bets are along Sacramento, Washington, or Laguna Streets, with extra options on Gough a block or two away. Enter on California or Sacramento & Laguna and you’ll be right by the playground where we’ll be set up at the picnic tables.
