Welcome Misfits
For the past five months, the Misfit Hosting Group has been throwing a series of truly unforgettable parties in the Augusta, Georgia area. Initially, the group had identified as a "Down to F@K" collective, but they soon realized that label didn't fully capture the warm, welcoming spirit they were aiming to cultivate. Instead, they've rebranded themselves as the only "Play Optional House Events Group" serving the CSRA (Central Savannah River Area) and greater Augusta region.
At these lively gatherings, the Misfits strive to create an inviting, judgment-free atmosphere where attendees of all experience levels can feel comfortable joining in - or simply observing - without any pressure to indulge in anything they're not ready for. It's a more laid-back, organically flowing environment where the members themselves get to dictate the pace and energy level for the evening. The Misfits kindly request that guests arrive dressed in alluring, party-ready attire (no casual streetwear, please!) and enthusiastically participate in the group's fun icebreaker activities to help everyone mingle and get to know each other.
As the night progresses, playtime unfolds naturally, but the Misfits always make sure to review their established house rules ahead of time to ensure everyone is on the same page and feels safe. The parties typically run from 7:30 PM until around midnight, with the fabulous hostess Eli, also known as the "Misfit Madam," occasionally serving up invigorating shots of tequila and Fireball to keep the energy high. Light snacks and mixers are provided, but it's a BYOB event, allowing guests to enjoy their preferred libations. A small monetary donation per couple is requested to help cover event costs, while single ladies can attend for free.
To maintain a balanced, comfortable atmosphere, the Misfits limit single male attendance to just 1-2 per event, avoiding any risk of overcrowding or discomfort. Ultimately, this dynamic group is all about building meaningful connections and expanding Augusta's vibrant, sex-positive lifestyle community.
The Team
Eli, Luis & James
Eli and Luis are a dynamic couple who have been immersed in the entertainment and nightclub industry for over two decades, hailing originally from the bustling city of Boston, Massachusetts. When they decided to take their 30 years of intimate partnership and turn it into a reality, they embarked on an unexpected journey that would not only become their new lifestyle, but also their newfound business venture. As they navigated the unfamiliar waters of this alternative lifestyle, they encountered a steep learning curve, having to familiarize themselves with the nuanced lingo and unwritten rules of the community. However, with the guidance and support of seasoned veterans who had been part of this scene for many years, Li and Luis were able to overcome the initial challenges and discover the wonderful, fun-filled side of this lifestyle - but only when approached with the right boundaries, expectations, and emotional maturity.
Seeking a warmer climate and to be closer to family, the couple decided to relocate, and it was in their new home that they serendipitously crossed paths with James, a kindred spirit who not only hailed from the same area back North, but also had deep roots in the southern lifestyle community. This chance meeting blossomed into a true friendship that quickly evolved into a thriving business partnership, as the trio recognized the synergy and complementary perspectives they each brought to the table. Together, they founded Southern Entertainment Group, LLC, which serves as the parent company for their growing portfolio of lifestyle-focused ventures, including Southern Misfits, Southern Misfits Latino (launching in 2025), Sober Southern Misfits (also coming in 2025), and Swingger Swagg Apparel (debuting in 2025). With their combined decades of experience, diverse backgrounds, and unwavering commitment to the lifestyle, Eli, Luis and James are poised to make a lasting impact on the southern lifestyle community.
