Our Annual Planning & White Elephant Meeting
When: Thursday, January 19, 7:15pm

Where: Shirley's House
What: Planning Meeting & White Elephant Gift Exchange

Shirley has generously volunteered to host our annual January Planning Meeting & White Elephant Gift Exchange.  Bring a snack, your calendar, a wrapped white elephant wrapped gift, and your ideas for things to do in 2017.


NOTE:  The white elephant gift can be something great but not what you like or can use.  It also could be something funny and not so great.

RSVP Shirley so she knows how many to expect.
 

We meet every Saturday morning at 9:00 am at Le Boulanger at San Felipe and Yerba Buena.  There is a Starbucks across from it if you need something "special" to go with your bagel or pastry.

On January 28th, we'll be going to Big Mug Coffee Roaster, 3014 El Camino Real, Santa Clara.
