NFB of Greater Louisville's Christmas Dinner & Party Information.

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
