  A Stronger Way Forward

  Join us from your home via Zoom for a joyful gathering with friends. The afternoon will start with some holiday music with your choice of snacks and beverages from your kitchen. Next we will review the year, say thank you to our 2020 board members, and welcome and install our 2021 board members.

  Then we will participate in an activity which is a great way to be creative with fellow members. The results of this activity should bring smiles to the faces of everyone involved. Don’t miss all the fun! Please register by December 1, 2020 to receive the Zoom connection information.

  Plan Ahead for our first-ever Virtual Holiday Potluck!

  Food: If you could bring something to our Holiday Potluck, what would it be? Can you share a picture of it? Your own photo, either this year's or earlier, or something from online would work. We'll show these at the beginning of our meeting, and if you want to say a little about your entry, please do! Of course, while we're ZOOMing we can all nibble and sip. Email all photos by 5:00 P.M. on December 5 to ray@missman.org

  Dress: Black tie not required. It’s Zoom, so you can wear whatever you want on the bottom-side – but maybe something more festive on the top-side. To dress up for the event, how about some holiday colors, or wear something from your travels to a foreign location, or that Christmas tie or blouse in your closet, or that ugly Christmas sweater you never wear.
