2025 Activities
Monthly dinner meetings are on the first Tuesday of each month and different restaurants will be favoured throughout the year. It’s your club! Please collaborate with any of the officers
(Jon , Martin etc.) with your suggestions for the 2025 VBAC calendar!
As of November 20th
Hello Everyone….. Just a quick note reminding you all to mark your calendars with our upcoming dinner meeting locations for the next couple of months. As always, meeting time is 6:00pm.
Each restaurant also has a very nice lounge for you to enjoy before your meal…
Hope everyone is enjoying this more than welcome change in our weather!
I want to take a few minutes to update everyone on a few details regarding our upcoming December dinner meeting.
First off, as a reminder, we will be gathering at the Old Spaghetti Factory on Tuesday December 2nd, at 6:00pm. They are located at 1610 E Shaw Avenue, in Fresno.
There has been a major change in our dinner pricing that will affect everyone in a very positive way… Each member, will pay ONLY $10 for your meal, with VBAC picking up the rest! You may remember we were going to ask members to pay only $20 for the meal, however we would like to extend this reduced price to everyone, as a big thank you for all of your support throughout this past year.
Alcohol IS NOT an included expense being covered by VBAC.
As in years past, we will once again have a Gift Exchange for anyone who would like to participate. Please bring a wrapped or bagged gift item of an approximate $20 value and join in the fun. There’s no obligation to play, but there’s always lots of great stuff to be had!
Additionally, we will be playing a British trivia game, where the prize for the correct answer will be a $25 Amazon gift card. Six chances to win… and win only once!
Lastly, there’ll be a little raffle giveaway at the close of the evening. Don’t leave early!
And finally, PLEASE… RSVP directly to me as soon as possible, as we are obligated to let our restaurant hosts know how many of us they should expect. My notification date is November 28th. Thus far, I have only 11 members who’ve confirmed they’ll be attending. I’d love to see our total numbers be in the 40-50 range. Thanks very much and I look forward to another great Christmas party on the 2nd.
See ya there, Jon.
