See UPDATE notes at the bottom of the page.

SPEAKER:
Christopher Imlay, W3KD, General Counsel of the ARRL, has accepted
our invitation to be our Guest Speaker for the Holiday Dinner.  He will
address BPL and other current issues in Amateur Radio, and field our
questions.


RESTAURANT:
The Dinner this year will be held at Anita's Mexican Restaurant in Vienna,
VA, not far from the Olive Garden where we normally get together.  The
Olive Garden is closed for renovation, and Anita's is an interesting
alternative.  We held the October Central meeting there in the private
room upstairs, which will seat 68 people, or perhaps more if needed.
As before, we will order individually from the menu, which is diverse and
interesting, and moderate in price.  Separate checks.

TIME:
The room will be available at 6 PM, and dinner is planned for 7 PM.
We expect to finish around 9:30.


PROGRAM:
The event will include some social time,  dinner, brief officer elections,
our Guest Speaker, and the presentation of 5 Million Awards to our
members.

DIRECTIONS:

The address is 521 East Maple Avenue, Vienna, V\A (703-255 1001).
There are two Anita's in Vienna.  We are going to the "New Anita's," a two
story structure with a large Neon Sign.  From Tysons Corner, Route 7,
turn south on Route 123, go about 1.4 miles to Anita's on the left.  There
is
plenty of parking.  We will be in the upstairs room.

UPDATE Topics

Some have reminded me of the preference that most of us and our guests have
for a No Smoking environment for the dinner.  I would ask the smokers to
respect that request in the dining area.

There is a separate upstairs room for smoking customers that will be
dedicated for us if needed for our dinner.  If you wish to eat in the
snoking room,
please let me know that preference.

The main room we are using seats 68 people.  In case we overflow, there are
tables available to us to seat 11 more of our people along a balcony railing
overlooking the 1st floor dining area.  The balcony is a pleasant dining
area.
So, if needed, we can handle a dinner party of 79 people, with those on the
balcony joining us in the other room for the program after the meal. Use of
the
"smoking room" is also possible is needed.

Jack
