For our December 2023 General Meeting, we hosted our Virtual Family Holiday Sing-Along party with novice and professional singers. As is our tradition, we gathered our families in front of our computers and had our favorite desserts handy. We encouraged attendees to wear their favorite holiday sweater to celebrate the 2023 holiday season! Gift cards were made available to the winners of our virtual contest.
This general meeting also discussed our Holiday Outreach to distribute socks and other thoughtful items to the unsheltered on Christmas morning.
We are CLOSED Friday 12/22 – Monday 12/25 and will be back to regular hours on Tuesday 12/26.
