Special thank you going out to those emailing us offering to donate prizes!
What great little elves you all are! To answer the questions from those interested in donating a prize:
If you wish to donate, it can be anything. Perhaps something you would like to receive as a prize, then you know it's something others might want. Anything goes really but if you can't think of anything, bottle of booze/wine always works!
All we ask is that if you wrap the prize, you tag it either "guy" "girl" or "no gender". Unless it's a bottle, then it's obvious. If you don't wrap it, please put in a bag to keep it a secret! We will not reveal what anyone donates, it's anonymous.
You can just bring the prize with you and we'll have a donation box there to put it into.
We also would like to thank the Roads for donating prizes. How nice of them. I guess they like our patronage!

We'll see what info we can find out and post it here for the out of towners. | |

Always welcome to come in later, as many come late and leave early so some will only have been there a short time by 10. Don't let work the next day hold you back from a chance to possibly meet new friends, drinking is an option, not compulsory, but having a good time and some laughs is !! | |

| Calgary - POF Christmas Party - 2008 Posted: 10/27/2008 7:06:09 AM | | MC- would you please define more clearly semi-formal? This sounds like a fun event, so I hope I don't have to cancel due to work again. | |
|
| Calgary - POF Christmas Party - 2008 Posted: 10/27/2008 9:35:23 AM | Semi-formal, not casual and not formal!!
The host (that is me) will be wearing a suit and tie, the hostess I hear may be wearing something colourful for the season such as red!!
To be more precise, with semi-formal: gentlemen are usually required to wear suit and tie or dress slacks and jacket without a tie while ladies wear what are referred to as co*ktail dresses, dress slacks and jacket or blouse so your option is being able to plan for that night. Dress up and be noticed or dress down to hide in the crowd.
By defininition, semi formal is a black tie or gown for in the evening and more casual apparel in the day, not jeans. This event is being held in a country bar so dress how you would feel comfortable for this event with the spirit of the season in mind. | |
