[Nfbv-announce] Final days to RSVP for the Fairfax Chapter Picnic and lake swim

Fri Jul 17 15:09:44 UTC 2015

We will not be having our third Thursday chapter meeting in the month of August. Please make a note of it.

Hello All,

Below is general information about the picnic and its location. 

IMPORTANT: Because of space limitations, the chapter has a limit on the number of people who can attend this awesome event of water, sun, and fun!

If you haven’t registered yet, please do so now to reserve your spot. Remember, there will be friends, food, and live music and please RSVP today! And, all are invited. But you have to RSVP now!
RSVP to Cathy Schroeder at cathy at sks.com with the number in your party.

On Sunday, August 2, 2015 from 4:00 PM till 7:00 PM, you are invited to join the Fairfax Chapter of the NFB  at their annual summer party. The Fairfax Chapter has always known how to have a good time. But this year, we have outdone ourselves in summer entertainment.

We will be having a BBQ and lake swimming at the home of Joanne and Patrick who live at Lake Barcroft in Falls Church. We welcome old friends as well as new ones. And, don’t forget to bring your families. The more the merryer!

We ask that all those planning to attend RSVP Cathy Schroeder (Cathy at sks.com) no later than one week prior to the party. We want to make sure to have enough food and drink for everyone. Also, we will be requesting a contribution from those attending the party to help with the costs.

By the way, did I mention we will be having live music! Don’t miss it.
