TNG – Anarchy returns

There will NOT be a TNG ZOOM this WEEK.

This week there will not be a ZOOM meeting. It was great having all of you with us. We hope to return soon.

Just good talk amongst friends AND staying warm.

Even though mask are not required feel free to wear a mask if you feel more comfortable. There will be some wearing mask so you will not be the only one.

The pop cooler MAY only have water in it. So if you want anything else – bring it.

PLEASE if you are having any of the COVID symptoms DO NOT come to the clubhouse.

DARA Holiday Party – THIS FRIDAY DEC 3rd

Santa suggested we have a holiday party this year because we, for the most part, have been good boys and girls and because we have not been able to get together much in the last few years. Therefore, we are having the

DARA Holiday Party this FRIDAY December 3, 2021, at the Greene County Expo Center in the Assembly Hall (Forums 1 & 2).

Members and their families are invited. Doors will open at 6:30pm. Of course, we will be serving the traditional holiday party Marion’s Pizza and will also have side salads available.

Please DO NOT BRING deserts as we normally do, DARA will supply them.

We will start serving around 7:15pm. Michael Kalter will be bringing a new band to provide us with holiday music. Linda Kalter will have an area set up for the kids where they will be able to participate in crafts and face painting.

Santa will arrive around 8:00pm and will be bringing youth gifts. We will also have a drawing for all adults in attendance.

Please DO NOT COME if you are experiencing any Covid-19 symptoms.

If you are more comfortable wearing a mask, please feel free to do so.

The CDC still recommends masking if you have not been vaccinated.
