| The date for our 2nd Annual Chinese New Year Dumpling Party is confirmed! It will be on Saturday, February 5, 2011 at 6:30 pm. Children age 8 and up are invited! Place: The Calvary Lutheran Church 36 Taylor St. East Meadow, NY Directions: http://www.mapquest.com/maps?city=East+Meadow&state=ny&address=36+Taylor+Ave Please note that the entrance is around the corner on North Pine Street. If you cannot park on the street, additional parking is available across North Pine St. in the office bldg parking lot. RSVP to: Barbara Fischthal at BanjoKisses@aol.com by Jan. 23rd. COST: $7.00 per person (this includes adults and friends) - TO BE PAID IN ADVANCE! Check must be received by Jan. 27th (made out to Joni Mazer: see mailing address below) FCC YOUTH GROUP WILL USHER IN THE YEAR OF THE RABBIT WITH A DUMPLING MAKING PARTY! Our next YOUTH GROUP meeting will be a celebration of the Chinese New Year and we will be cooking our own dumpling dinner! If you were there last year, you know how much fun this was, and it is probably Youth Group's best event of the year. You don't want to miss it! Each child is allowed to bring ONE (and only one!) friend who is not from our adoption community so that we can share our Chinese culture and our friends. In order to adequately prepare the amount of food necessary, we request that if you RSVP that you will be attending, you also must send payment to our Head Chef, Joni Mazer, who will purchase the necessary items for our event. This will enable us to prepare appropriately, and have the right amount of food for the number of guests. Checks should be made out to JONI MAZER, and must be received by Jan. 27th so that Joni has time to plan and shop. Mail to: Joni Mazer, 2437 Fifth Avenue, East Meadow, NY 11554. Please realize there can be no refunds if you do not show up. Please bring drinks for your own group. This seems to have worked out well at previous meetings, and helps to keep our costs down, as well as provide you with the beverage you prefer. We also ask that you bring a red envelope for the number of children you are bringing, and fill each one with one quarter. *** IF ANYONE HAS A CONNECTION WITH A LOCAL CHINESE RESTAURANT AND CAN GET A DONATION OF CHOP STICKS AND TAKE OUT CONTAINERS, PLEASE LET US KNOW. *** IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO VOLUNTEER TO HELP WITH THIS EVENT, IT WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED. PLEASE ADVISE! HOPE YOU CAN MAKE IT! Barbara Fischthal Gumpel, Lisa Burke, and Joni Mazer |
