It takes a long time to grow an old friend!
 Good morning, everyone! This message is one day late because I was out of town enjoying this lovely weather!
  • Event venue for our next Social - We are beginning prep plans for our Social for next Spring but we need your assistance in helping us to find a venue that will hold 80-100 people for a fun event. Here are some venues that might work: 
  •  Do you live in a neighborhood that offers rental of the clubhouse to their residents?
  •  Does your church or house of worship have a large community or family space?
  •  Do you know any public venues that we could rent that is reasonably priced (we are already aware of the Parks & Recreations and the social venue on Providence Road West.)  Please contact Social Chair Monya Thomas 704-654-6249, monthomas63@gmail.com or Dee Drobonick 704-641-5960, deedrob519@gmail.com
  • Cancelling your registration for a NFC event/Waitlist - If you need to cancel your registration to an event, please do so during daytime hours so that if there is a Waitlist, members on that list will receive email notifications prior to going into overnight hours.  Once an email goes out to a member to advise they are next in line they need to respond and register directly from that email.  The notification is only good for 12 hours from when it goes out to the waitlist member.  If the member does not respond within that timeframe, their name will be dropped from the waitlist.  If you know you are on a waitlist for any event please plan to check your emails frequently.  
  • Blessing Cart:
Collections continue - The list of items needed is in the November newsletter that went out last week or go directly to Amazon.com where all items are listed.  Order online, free delivery.
 
 
For any questions please contact our Community Services Chair Chris Green, 704-621-0893, chrisgreen126@yahoo.com.
  •  Please keep Pauline Trautman in your thoughts and prayers as she has knee-replacement surgery on Wednesday.  Look for a Meal Train Eblast for those who would like to provide a meal to her and John over the next 3 weeks.
Have a great week everyone!
