HAL Annual Holiday Party - Friday, December 5th
Victor Sanchez
Dear Fellow HAL Members,
Once again, as is our long-standing tradition, we will use the occasion of our December meeting to hold our Holiday Party at the Robinson Nature Center. The meeting will be on Friday, December 5th from 7 to 9 pm and will include catered food and a potluck, with doors opening at 6:30 for those who bring a dish and need some time to set up. We’ll also hold a zoom meeting (link below) so those who can’t attend in person can be included.
If you can make it, please RSVP to vcs...@yahoo.com with Subject line: HAL Holiday Party RSVP and indicate how many people will attend and if you anticipate bringing any pot-luck food items. Please RSVP as soon as you determine if you can make it, so that we can get an accurate head count on how much food to order. Note that this is a members-only event, but you’re welcome to bring family members. Examples of items brought to past holiday parties include… Meatballs, Ham, Salads, Chili, Casseroles, Potato salad, Coleslaw, Desserts, Juices and Sodas, Vegetables, Chips, etc. We'll order mains and sides from Mission Barbeque (or similar) as well.
In addition to the food and fun, if you want to bring in telescopes and related products to swap, sell, or giveaway, bring the items with you. It is a great way to pick up gear you have been looking for and/or unload items you no longer need or want. Also, If you have kids or someone whose social battery runs low, the Robinson Nature center will have two planetarium shows that night: one from 6:30 to 7:30 pm and another from 8:00 to 9:00 pm. They are not HAL sponsored so you'll have to purchase tickets ($10/person) if you want to attend.
Hope to see you on the 5th and thanks again for being part of HAL. Clear skies,
Victor
HAL President
