President, Greater Alexandria Chapter

All are welcome at our first annual holiday gathering!

 

You are cordially invited to join us for the Greater Alexandria Chapter's
first ever holiday blast!  It will be held on Friday evening, December 15
from 5:30pm to 9pm at the home of Bob Hartt and Bonnie O'Day.  A catered
dinner from Rockland's BBQ will be available beginning around 6:30.  The
cost of dinner, which will include Rocklands sandwich favorites, cucumber
salad, mixed vegetables, corn bread muffins, rice and beans plus their
dessert cupcakes, will be approximately twenty dollars.  The final price
will be set based on the number of people who RSVP, and you will be notified
of the exact  amount after the RSVP deadline.  

It has been rumored that a few of the Alexandria Harmonizers masquerading as
elves, and maybe even a quartet of them, will make an appearance to
entertain and get all of us to chime in with a few stanzas of our favorite
holiday tunes.  Please RSVP to Bonnie O'Day at bonnoday at gmail.com
<mailto:bonnoday at gmail.com>  no later than Monday, December 11.  

In the spirit of holiday giving, you are invited to join our chapter members
in donating gifts to Volunteers of Alexandria Toy drive. Note that gift
donations must be collected prior to our December 15 holiday party, by
December 14. Gifts must be unwrapped, and can be for all ages of children,
from infant to teen-ager. If you would like to make the season brighter for
some deserving families eligible for this program, you are invited to
contact Evelyn Valdez for full details and to arrange for pick-up of your
gift.  She can be reached at Evelyn.Valdez at va.gov

On behalf of all chapter members,  We look forward to your RSVP and wish you
a happy and healthy holiday season!
