might be there later 718 308 7184.....sugest volunteer activities throughout the event....ie welcoming, introducers, security
monitoring of policies.....ie i've been to one event where coffee
wasnt available, and the coffee location refered to closed, luckily
there was one a few doors down. From my 2 hr drivers ed
discount class it reminds me to eat with food besides blood absorbtion rate for safe defensive holiday driving!Posted December 11, 2011 at 10:53 AM -

Set up: hanging decorations. There is street parking and lot parking on 36th. Introductions you do yourself, we give you a name tag. Security is me, if you act out I beat you with mistletoe, kick you out and call Harry Hanukkah and/or Santa to report you as "naughty" lol Also, this is a restaurant with coffee, food and 2 bars.

Hi there! Is it okay to arrive later than 7pm? I have another engagement that may run longer than anticipated, so I thought I should ask. :)

Hi Sam, I can't make tonight's event but some other time let's drive together. I also live on LI. What part of LI do you live in? I'm going to the afternoon event on 12/31 but I'll already be in NYC in the morning. If you'll be at that art/St John the Divine event, I'll find you and say "hi"

THANK YOU, leaders, for your mention of "Socialize with other smart, fun and creative brainiacs ". :) Not all of us were Mathletes. LOL. I'm an ad writer, and few of us are stupid, but many people don't understand that you don't have to be a mollecular biologist to be smart."
