BECC Social Events Calendar
As if the learning, networking, and food and snacks wasn’t enough, we’ve got a bunch of fun social activities planned for BECC this year to help you scale up your connections. Read below and consider joining us at one (or all) of them.
Sunday
Opening Social (7:00pm – 9:00pm)
Come kick off BECC at the Amourath 1819 Lobby Bar in the conference hotel (Hyatt Regency)! Don’t miss your chance to win a Le Creuset and Induction Stove by participating in BECC Bingo! All are welcome to join this no-host interactive event and connect with other attendees.
After the social, join fellow BECCsters for some live music at the Torch Club for Sunday Sessions (just a short walk from the hotel) with one of the best jazz funk bands in the city.
Monday
All-Levels Running (6:30am – 7:15am)
Roll out of bed and start your day on the right foot, and then your left foot (repeat). Not in shape? Not a problem! All levels of running (in)ability are welcome! Meet for departure from the main hotel entrance at 6:30am; we will self-sort into groups for length and/or pace.
Yoga (7:00 – 8:00am)
Need a gentle way to wake up your body and center your mind? Join us for an all-levels morning yoga practice in the Tahoe room, 7-8a. We’ll stretch, breathe, and move in a way that leaves you feeling grounded and ready for the day. Please bring a yoga mat or hotel towel if you have one. Class begins promptly at 7:00am, so arriving 5–10 minutes early is helpful.
Music Festival: The Sound of Change (5:15 – 6:30pm)
Grab some snacks and join us as we explore music’s role in climate movements and behavior change. Featuring videos, discussion, and a live performance, we’ll reflect on how music can inspire, mobilize, and be integrated into your own work.
Networking Dinners (7:00 – 9:00pm)
Want a great way to make new BECC friends and enjoy a nice meal out in Sacramento? Join one of our networking dinners on Monday night! We’ve made reservations at several restaurants less than a mile from the conference hotel with a variety of types from which to choose. Browse the options and menus in the link below. Dinners are no-host. All groups will meet in the hotel lobby at 6:45 pm to walk over together for 7:00 pm reservations. Sign up here by Saturday, November 1. Questions?

BECC Evening Social (8:00 – 10:00pm)
Join the best and brightest BECC attendees for (no-host) food, drinks and conversation following Tuesday’s night’s poster reception at Tipsy Putt at 630 K St, #120 (just a 10 minute walk from the Hyatt). The first 35 people to arrive will get a FREE HOUR OF GAMES (thanks to our event sponsor Illume Advising) so come early and get your putt on! There’s Taco Tuesday deals all night so grab dinner and join us or come straight from the poster session and eat there. Save time and complete the Tipsy Putt waiver in advance if you plan to play or just come and enjoy camaraderie and cocktails if mini golf isn’t your thing…
