SAUCE 101

Your invitation into the Sauce community

SAVE THE DATE! DECEMBER 8 OR DECEMBER 16

I'm currently working to make December 8 happen. If the venue gods say no, we’ll be on December 16 instead. Stay tuned for the confirmed date!

Maybe you’ve heard about the Sauce but not been sure how to jump in. Maybe you’ve been to a few events. Or maybe you’ve been swirling with us for a while and been wondering what exactly happens when you go a little deeper.

Welcome to Sauce 101.

This is your chance to meet me, Bez Stone, your Pleasure Captain :) and get to know the ropes of the Sauce, learn more about what the Sauce community is all about, and get oriented to the culture, values, and skills that make this community work.

We’ll talk about connection, consent, agency, communication, boundaries, healthy risk-taking, and what it means to be part of a community where you can explore without having to pretend you already know everything. Plus get to know each other through experiential connection activities and other ways to have fun and get vulnerable - two of the Sauce's core values. 

You’ll get a feel for the Sauce beyond the party itself, have a chance to meet other people who are curious about going deeper, and learn more about our membership process and options. 

THE practical reason to come

Sauce 101 fulfills the requirements for Sauce membership!

Membership is your doorway into more experiences: access to special members-only events, eligibility for deeper offerings and pre-screened experiences, and other perks that I'll be rolling out this year. Exciting!!

The Sauce has always been more than a party. It’s a community where we come to connect, learn, take healthy risks, explore desire, and get a little more honest with ourselves and each other. The more skills and trust we build together, the deeper we can go.

Sauce 101 is the perfect place start OR to simply have a chance to get to know me and the culture better. Ask your questions, get oriented, and find out what it means to be part of the best community in Santa Cruz based on connection, self-knowledge, vulnerability, and a touch of healthy debauchery.

This will be the first ever Sauce 101!! I'd love to have you join us

Save the date: December 8 or December 16.

More details—and membership information—coming very soon.
