PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
October 2024
This month I have asked our Program Chairman, Nancy Sheffer- Poole to update us on the Christmas Banquet.
DECEMBER 1, 2024 - ANNUAL CHRISTMAS BANQUET
It's that time of the year again to be thinking about attending our Christmas Banquet. The banquet will be held at Mira Vista Country Club, 6600 Mira Vista Blvd, Fort Worth, on Sunday December 1, 2024
The Christmas Banquet always affords a wonderful venue for an afternoon of socializing with friends and great music for your listening/dancing pleasure. Attending the banquet gives a person the chance to dress up and also see some of your friends that you don't see on a regular basis.
You may arrive around 12:45 pm. Be sure to check in at the sign in table for your table number and where you will be seated.
You will be able to come downstairs, by way of the elevator to participate in the Silent Auction. The tables will be in the back of the seating area. We will have some very nice items again this year, so be sure you check them out and do some Christmas shopping. Coffee and water will be available.
Seating will begin at 1:15PM and will be prearranged. Dinner will be served at 1:30PM.
Nancy Sheffer-Poole will be visiting all functions in the month of October to take money for early bird reservations. The cost is $30.00 per person for reservations made by November 15. Reservations postmarked between November 16 and 22 go to $40.00. (NO EXECEPTIONS). We accept cash, checks and charge cards for payment. You may also give your reservation to your event host. If you wish to sit with a group of 8 or 10, a list of names and the money must be turned in at the same time. If you wish to sit with a group of 4 or 6, just know that there will be other people seated at your table, as we seat 10 per table. Door prizes will be awarded to those present.
If anyone would like to donate items for door prizes or know of any one, who would like to donate, or for questions or info Please contact NANCY SHEFFER-POOLE, (Note the area code) @ 812-593- 1578. Hope to see all of you there!
Phyllis Weisheit, President
