Annual Meeting and Holiday Celebration plus Bob Allen presenting his favorite websites–Zoom Only

December 7, 2021  9:30 am – 11:30 am

 

It’s time for the EGS annual meeting and Holiday celebration on Tuesday, December 7, 9:30 a.m. Following the election of officers for 2022, Bob Allen will present a program featuring his comprehensive list of websites. Everyone will receive a handout of Bob’s favorites, and there are many! Because we are ending the year via Zoom instead of in person, everyone will need to bring his own holiday lunch to enjoy together. Please bring a holiday ethnic story or item to share and maybe wear your holiday sweater too. Please join us for this end of year holiday event.

Handout is in the Members Only Section of the website. Zoom information will be available soon.

If you have questions (or want to volunteer for Treasurer), please contact Carol Blohm or Bob Allen

EGS would like to extend its sympathy to the family and many friends of Mike Alft. A life member of our organization no one knew more about Elgin than he did. He will certainly be missed.
