The Moonrise Hotel's first Turkey Tweetup event will focus on networking and Thanksgiving Tweets.

Are you a social media buff who is looking for a little fun and a break from the standard pre-Thanksgiving rush?

The networking event is geared toward St. Louis-area professionals. Participants are encouraged to tweet about β€œall things Thanksgivingβ€”what we’re thankful for, top Thanksgiving foods,” and β€œbeloved (or on-another-planet) Thanksgiving traditions.”
