WWW tomorrow and other goodies!

WWW on Tuesday, January 17 will be at Eleanor Rouse Kootsey's home at 7:00 p.m. Her address is 2822 Floyd Ave., #6 (NE corner of Floyd and Colonial, one block west of Boulevard). 

On a somewhat-related note, Britt Van Deusen and I are the chairs of the WomanKind Friday night reception (February 17).  We also did it two years ago, and love it - everyone had a wonderful time! It takes a huge effort of volunteers to cook, prepare and serve all of the food necessary to feed the potentially 300+ people that attend!

I know that there has been a barrage of emails recruiting volunteers, and I thank you for your patience in reading and responding (or not responding!!)  to them.

Britt and I would like to put out a special plea to the women of WWW to pitch in. We are most in need of women to serve at the actual reception (from 5:30 - 7:30 p.m.) as the wonderful hostesses and serving people.  We need 12 women to put smiles on their faces and move through the crowd asking our guests "Would you like a stuffed mushroom" while gracefully balancing a tray and a stack of napkins! (among some other tasks, too!)

If you are able to help us, please email me back directly (laurastrickler@gmail.com) and I will get you in the loop and on the list. We would be so grateful!

In addition, if you are a chef and would like to contribute, please let me know and I'll let you know which dishes we still need you to make!

Thank you!

Laura

WWW on Tuesday, Dec. 20

Hi everyone!

Our last Wine Women & Wonder of 2011 will be tomorrow night at Cheri Stringer's home. Below is a note from her about parking and directions! Look forward to seeing everyone!

************************

Hello Ladies!  I'm looking forward to seeing you on Tuesday at my home in the Fan.  Our address is 1825 Hanover Ave, and phone number is 804-368-8801.  We are two blocks east of Meadow between Granby and Allen, four houses from Granby.  Look for the sleigh, and you won't miss us!

Unfortunately parking is always a bit of a challenge in the Fan, especially since we live in the restricted parking area (1 hour parking until 9pm unless a resident). Fortunately, I was able to reserve some street parking for you on Tuesday night.  There will be special regulation signs posted in front of our house that say "No Parking After 6 pm Tuesday." The area between these signs is reserved for you.  When you come in I'll also give you something to display on your dash.  Probably seven or eight cars will fit in this area.  Therefore, please carpool if possible to limit the number of cars.  If you arrive after this area is full, the following blocks are the closest to my house that do not have parking restrictions.  All are approximately 2 blocks away:  2000 block of Hanover, 200 or 300 block of N. Meadow, or the 1900 block of Stuart Ave on the north side of the street bordering Meadow Park.  

Here is a link to Google Maps so you can see our house in relation to these blocks.

WWW Retreat - Mark Your Calendars!

Hi everyone -

We'll be gathering for for our annual WWW retreat on Friday, December 9 at Christine Peterson's house near Charlottesville!

If you've not been before, the retreat is a wonderful event that shouldn't be missed. More details to follow, but the basic plan includes: arriving at Christine's late afternoon/early evening and stay through the next morning at your leisure. We'll have dinner, a study, wine and conversation. Last time, Christine managed to order up snow for a perfect retreat!

We'd love to get a general idea of attendance, so if you're able to come, please email Ann Dieterle and let her know!
