Hello everyone,
I’d like to cordially invite you all to the National
Federation of the Blind of Greater Louisville annual Christmas party. This
invitation is extended also to any of our federation family throughout the state
– we would be thrilled if you could join us! Also please feel free to invite
your friends and family – the more the merrier! Here are the
details.
Date: Saturday December 7, 2013
Time: 5:00pm to 8:00pm
Where: Encounter Church 9105 Galene Drive
Cost: Five dollars per person (adults and children) for meal,
drink and dessert
We will enjoy a professionally catered meal from Chef Holly
Macpherson of Your Pad Or Mine, which will include many of the traditional
holiday dishes. Chef Holly and I have collaborated to create a truly
multi-sensory experience, not just a meal. Your senses will be tantalized and
this is an experience you don’t want to miss. In addition to our scrumptious
meal we will join together in singing Christmas carols accompanied by music
performed by local NFB talent, with Braille and large print lyrics available for
those of us who need a memory jog! No party would be complete without a visit
from Old Saint Nick himself. Parents, please bring a wrapped gift in the $5
range for Santa to present to your children. Speaking of gifts, adults will have
the opportunity to get in on the fun too! If you’d like to participate in the
optional gift exchange, bring a $10 wrapped gift marked “male” or “female” to
share. I’m currently working with a local photographer to hopefully offer
pictures with Santa or family pictures to all who attend.
In order for us to plan accordingly for the meal it is
mandatory that you RSVP no later than Friday November 29 by mailing your check
to NFBGL Treasurer Maria Jones at 5108 Bannon Crossings Drive Louisville,
Kentucky 40218.
Last, but certainly not least, NFBGL Vice President Katie
Atkins will be sending an email shortly with information about the Christmas
giving project we’ll be doing this year. If you plan to participate please bring
any of your purchases to the Christmas party (wrapped or unwrapped – whichever
is easiest for you) and we’ll put everything together for the recipients.
Thank you all so very much for a wonderful year of NFB
fellowship. I look forward to seeing many of you at the party. As always, if you
have any questions or if you need anything please feel free to call me directly
at 502-262-1403.
Warm regards,
Melanie
