Hi everyone!

Update here from the Social Committee about upcoming events! You may have seen that in August we had our inaugural/kick-off event with Sports Trivia Night! Congrats again to Andy Folkerth for winning the Buffalo Wild Wings gift card – he beat us all fair and square with deep knowledge of College Sports!

In September, we hosted a very successful Cooking with Wine Night! Our own Deb Sampson (a closet Food Blogger!!) led us through the creation of French Onion Soup with 3 wine pairings from Lukas Liquors.

Here is a preview of some upcoming events:

October 23 – Pumpkin Carving and Costume Contest! Do you have hidden talents carving pumpkins into Westminster Abbey? This is the night for you!

November 20 – Make Fleece Blankets and Bourbon Tasting! We will be making fleece blankets to donate to animal shelters, and tasting bourbons!

December 18 – Christmas Craft Night (ornaments, etc.) and BYOB cookies! Submit your favorite Christmas Cookie recipe early so we can combine them and send them out to the participants.

January 29 – Superbowl Trivia Night! Whether we have a Superbowl or not!

February 26 – Chinese New Year Night! Enjoy some a night learning and having fun, while experiencing new cultural traditions!

We hope you can join us for these fun things, to bring us together as a family and community during this “virtual time”. Please contact Suraya Bowermaster, Kaitlyn Bridgers or Deb Sampson with suggestions or feedback, and if you’d like to join us in planning future events!
