 A Note from Marty

Good evening Chicks!

I just heard about an event at Grapevine Farms!

A fall into Fashion show!

November 4th at 6:00 PM  Dinner will be served.  The menu being Roast Turkey with homemade stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, farmhouse roasted broccoli and carrots and a side of cranberry sauce.  A fall dessert will also be served.  1st drink included with ticket.

They will be having a fashion show showcasing their newest clothing lines, handbags, jewelry and accessories.

 There will be shopping after dinner and they will have coupons and specials.  Raffles will also be going on.  They also have wine tasting downstairs.

All this for 25.00 per person.

I called to ask about availability.  At the moment there is room for us but she says they sell out each year.  They will not reserve a seat without payment.  She is working with me to have seats for us but I will need your checks made out to me as soon as possible.  She is holding my credit card for now but will need more positive numbers.

Let me know if you are interested and send your check for 25.00 to me,

We can work out some ride sharing as we get closer to the event for those that are interested.
