Join us for wine or juice at 5:30, vegetarian supper at 6:15, followed by networking and a program. Supper reservations are REQUIRED. Call Gabrielle or e-mail her at ellegr.1@juno.com by 8 PM the Tuesday before the meeting. Reservations must be honored. If you are unable to make a reservation, just bring a supper substitute and join us.
Supper and the program costs $10. If you need to hire a babysitter, tell Gabrielle and your cost will be $5 to offset the cost of the sitter. No reservations are needed for the program only, but try to arrive by 7:30. |
