We’ve decided to hold this year’s Game Day on December 24th instead of the traditional 25th to take advantage of Monday (December 25th) being a non-work day for most of us. There is sure to be at least one game of Taboo going on somewhere in the house. Our host has Scattergories and Scrabble but would like to encourage everyone to bring their favorite, interactive/group game(s). Please bring: - a potluck dish (vegetarian, beef, or chicken dishes are acceptable -- please no pork) (soft drinks and some alcohol/wine/beer will be provided) - your favorite game(s) - a swimsuit and towel, if you would like to get in the hot tub Please RSVP to [EMAIL PROTECTED] by Friday, December 22nd. NOTE: There is plenty of room at Deb's if you "overindulge" (intentionally or not) with the alcoholic beverages, or if you just do not want to drive home late at night. If you know that you are planning to stay overnight, please let Deb know in your RSVP. ================================================================ Dinner and a Movie at Beth Meyer Synagogue: (New Event) When: Monday, December 25, 2006 Time: See Below Where: Beth Meyer Synagogue, 504 Newton Road, Raleigh (919-848-1420) (RSVPs Required for Dinner) TYJP is invited to come join the fun for a relaxed evening of schmoozing, tasty Asian food, and funny movies on Christmas Evening (December 25th), in the Beth Meyer Synagogue social hall. The movie, "Cars", will be projected on a screen at 4:30 for kids and kids-at-heart. Dinner will be served around 6 or 6:30pm (depending on when Cars finishes up), and the comedy movie 'Keeping up with the Steins' will be shown on the big screen afterwards. This program is put on by the Beth Meyer Men's Club, but everyone is welcome to attend. It promises to be a great opportunity to spend time with other Jewish people on what can often be a lonely night for Jews. The only fee is canned food for the food drive. Otherwise, everything else is free of charge. RSVPs are required for the dinner (so they'll know how much food to get), but not for the movies. Please RSVP to Sara D. ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) by Dec. 17th if you plan to attend!
