&lt;p&gt;Mix up your usual networking routine and join us for a Business After Hours that&amp;#39;s anything but stationary.&amp;nbsp;For this special edition, we&amp;#39;re taking networking on the move - hopping between some of downtown Milwaukee&amp;#39;s great spots using The Hop streetcar (which is always FREE to ride)!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We&amp;#39;ll kick things off at&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://www.exploriumbrew.com/thirdward"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Explorium - Third Ward&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;where you can reconnect with familiar faces and ease into the evening.&amp;nbsp; From there, we&amp;#39;ll hop aboard Milwaukee&amp;#39;s streetcar and travel together to our next destination near Cathedral Square -&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://yourofficemke.com/"&gt;Your Office&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tentative Itinerary:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt; &lt;span style="color:#c0392b;"&gt;*Please note the earlier start time and later ending*&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
4:30-5:45pm | Meet at&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Explorium - Third Ward&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;(light snacks and specially priced Barrel-Aged Old Fashioneds and Manhattans available)&lt;br /&gt;
5:45-6:00pm | Travel to our 2nd destination - Your Office&lt;br /&gt;
6:00-7:15pm |&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Your Office&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;(light snacks and cash bar available)&lt;br /&gt;
7:15-7:30pm | Travel back to Explorium - Third Ward&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Keep the conversations flowing as we move from stop to stop.&lt;br /&gt;
The Hop runs frequently so no stress if you miss a ride. Just catch the next one and rejoin the group.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Think of it as part networking event, part bar hop, and a whole Milwaukee experience.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
