Last Day to buy Xmas Party tickets is at the Board Meeting on Wednesday

Posted on by

Wednesday is the last day to buy tickets for the Christmas Party. Email or call Bruce Estes (650 504-4464).

Our party will be combined with the Auburn Chapter 526 party, which is also at Cattlemens Restaurant on that day.

It will be a more fun event and a chance to meet some of the Auburn members, or say “hi” to those you know, since a number of our members are also members of 526.

So, please wear your 1541 member badge so that our Auburn friends will more easily know who is with 1541 vs 526.
