Annual CIBA Holiday Social - November 18th
The ANNUAL CIBA HOLIDAY SOCIAL is next week!
Join us for this always-fun event on Wednesday, November 18.
This year we’ll meet in the Walnut Community Room at Fire Station #5, 4950 NW Fair Oaks Dr. From Walnut Blvd., look for the yellow fire house caution signs just south of Martin Luther King Jr. Park, at the entrance to NW Fair Oaks Dr. The Fire Station is the only building on this short dead end street. Parking is very limited, so we encourage car pooling. Parking is also available at the park, a short walk away.
We’ll start at 5:30 p.m. and get going with our raffle around 6.
Bring a business friend – guests are welcome. And don’t forget those business cards - this is usually our biggest Membership Meeting, with lots of opportunities to network. We’ll have food from local restaurants, our traditional raffle, and maybe even some music as well. See you on the 18th!
Did we say RAFFLE during the HOLIDAY SOCIAL? Yep, as usual we are asking members to donate goods or services from your businesses.
If you have an item to donate, contact Evelyn Hall at 452-3115 ext 308. At the Social, be sure to pick up your free lucky ticket when you fill out your name tag!
