I have not seen the houses before, but hear great things about them. We will have lunch in Asheville (at a restaurant as yet to be determined).

We'll depart at 9:00am. We will meet at the Barnes & Noble parking lot (park in the back section) on Hanes Mall Blvd and will carpool to Asheville which is about 2 hours away. Your RSVP is very important so we can plan for drivers. Please respond by December 3rd to Chris M at 293-4583. NOTE: the trip is Tuesday not Wednesday.

Once again we are combining our annual Holiday Party with the everpopular Snoop game. Snoop is an easily learned card/dice game. Each Player must bring an unwrapped white elephant holiday item (a decoration, ornament, apparel, etc—the more outrageous the better) in a plain brown bag that can be opened easily for viewing. Also, please bring an appetizer to share and your own adult beverage.

Coffee, tea and soft drinks will be provided. For directions and to RSVP, please contact Donna by Sunday, December 5th at 941-3135. You may also bring an optional $10 gift card for a teen.
