Next Dinner Meeting: Tuesday, December 18, 2018
IVAR’S Salmon House, 401 NE Northlake Way, Seattle
5:30pm – Meet and Greet
6:45pm – Dinner in the Banquet Room
Topic: “Christmas Party”
We’ll be doing lots of things to celebrate this year past and a New Year soon upon us, including:– Singing Christmas Carols (Roger will be playing the piano, with lots of Christmas music and singing). Julie Newby will be soliciting new members for the SBYC All-Women’s Choir, with a rehearsal/performance all happening at once during the evening.
– Recognizing the excellent work of the 2018 Board Members and installing the incoming 2019 Board Members
– SBYC Gift Exchange, directed by Santa’s top elf, Jessie Lundin. Participation is totally optional, but if you’d like to participate please bring a gift in the $15 to $20 range, nicely wrapped. Please no “White Elephant” gifts or re-gifting of items that you’re trying to rid yourself of, but gifts with a humorous twist are certainly welcome. Jessie will remind us all of the rules of the exchange, and do her usual terrific job of directing the exchange (and urging everyone to keep things moving along.)
We have both banquet rooms reserved as this meeting is usually our biggest attendance of the year. Wear some bright and colorful Holiday gear to get us all in the mood. Wild Christmas ties! Outlandish Christmas Sweaters! Blinking lights!?!?!?
REMEMBER: Please use the Comments box in your RSVP on Evite to advise how many of which dinner menu choice you would like. The Evite will go to your email Inbox Monday or Tuesday, with responses due no later than Saturday morning, December 15.
