BS Rider 2018 Christmas Party - Saturday, December 8th

The Christmas Party and Annual Meeting will be at the Pierce Mansion in Sioux City, Iowa on Saturday, December 8th at 6 p.m.  Bring a spouse or friend.   Bring new members.  

The main course will be smoked pulled pork and a brine turkey.  We are looking to have party goers bring either  a side-dish or desert if they can, but it's not required.  The club will supply plates, cups, and tableware.  If you want something to drink beside water or coffee bring it with you.  Please RSVP me (brion.hase@gmail.com) if you are coming, if you are bringing a guest and if you know what dish you are bringing.  

If you wish to participate, bring something to throw into the famous white elephant gift exchange at the Christmas party.  The suggested guideline is about $20.  Some gifts from prior years seem to reappear every year or two.  Animated stuff things are also continually popular.  There has also been some table talk about bring battery chargers in memory of Marc who passed away a few months ago.

Voting on the Big Johnson Award and new club officers will be before the gift exchange.  Be warned - people who don't show up can be nominated and elected.  Club dues are $20/person or $25/family and mostly help cover expenses for the party and to cover a few minor expenses during the year.

Send your Big Johnson nominations to Jim - http://bigsiouxriders.blogspot.com/2014/01/big-sioux-riders-annual-big-johnson.html  According the rules you can win this award more then once and you don't have to be an official BS Rider member to win.

There is a B&B kitty-corner from the Pierce Mansion which some folks stay at - https://tinyurl.com/ycyakdmd and https://lindasuemanor.com/
