Summer Banquet

Unread postby Karl Strauss » Mon May 16, 2016 6:44 am

Just wondering if there is more details on the Summer Banquet (forgive me if I have the vernacular incorrect). Last year's was up at Cumbres, the year before was in the Chama Senior Center - both on the last Friday of Session C.

I saw somewhere that this year's might be up in Antonito. I'm arriving Chama the last Friday session C and don't want to miss the gathering.

Anyone have information to share?

See you all in a few weeks!

THANKS

Here you go Karl:

The Friends Annual Dinner & Meeting will be held Friday June 24, 2016 at the Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish Hall in Conejos, CO. We will begin at 6:00pm and conclude around 9:00pm. Dinner will encompass a beef tips and chicken buffet with the cost being $15/person.

We will have a program plus auction items and other items for sale. For those staying in Chama we will have a Mountainview Motorcoach provide transportation between Chama and the Parish Hall. We anticipate the motorcoach departing Chama at approximately 5:45pm and it should return back around 10:00pm.

If you will not be attending work session “C” please call the Albuquerque Office at 505-880-1311 to make a reservation and ask that you RSVP by Monday June 20, 2016. If you are attending work session “C” then please indicate when you check in on Sunday June 19, 2016.

Thank you.

Thank you for the information. Regarding the motorcoach,

, I believe you meant to say that the Chama departure is approximately 4:45 pm.

5:45 would make for an interesting ride to be there for the start. It might be salable for the roller coaster crowd!
