This is one of the most popular, well-rated events that this meetup group has to offer each year! Join us at Fieldwork located in San Mateo for drinks on **Friday, December 6th, at 6 pm,** wearing your ugliest holiday sweater!

***WHITE ELEPHANT EXCHANGE***
What makes this event fun is the White Elephant Gift exchange. Usually, white elephants are junky gifts, but in the case of this meetup, we exchange nice things! Therefore, please bring one gift, **around $35,** **wrapped, for this event.**

In the past, some members were upset that some brought low-priced gifts. It's unfair to those who have stayed within budget when someone only brings a $10 gift, and you walk away with a $40 one. Therefore, please stay within budget. If you are watching $$, there is no need to bring a gift, and you can hang out with the group!

Additionally, this gift should be something you would enjoy receiving. Past gifts have included bottles of wine, blankets, gift cards, and cookbooks. No clothes or makeup, please- many have stated in the past that they have different sizes and preferences, so get more general gifts that anyone can use.

We will each draw numbers of who will pick gifts in what order, starting at #1 goes first, and then in order. Limit to two "steals" to make the game more interesting! Again, please bring your gift wrapped! It makes it more fun when people are surprised!

***RESERVATIONS***
As the date approaches (Nov 2024), Melissa plans on making reservations and will try to get tables by the space heaters. However, reservations are normally limited to ten, and Melissa will need another 1-2 people to volunteer to help make additional reservations come November, should we need additional tables. Please write in the chat if you are willing to help with this.

**Please only RSVP yes if you know you can attend!** If you are a "maybe," please wait to RSVP until you know you can or cannot attend since this can impact the brewery, and Melissa needs an accurate headcount to provide to the brewery 1-2 days beforehand.

***DRESS CODE***
Please wear an ugly (or cute) holiday sweater! This makes the event more fun! Each year, we also vote on who has the ugliest sweater, and an award is given to the winner! Therefore, have fun with this!

Also, we will be outdoors, so please dress warmly this time of the year.

***\*\*WEATHER- LOCATION WILL CHANGE IF RAINING\*\****
The event will be canceled at Fieldwork if it is raining since the venue is located outdoors. However, if it rains, Melissa has a plan B location at Grand Bay Hotel (Redwood Shores), where we can meet in the lobby instead. This will be discussed as the event approaches.

***FOOD & DRINKS***
There is food across the street, including burgers and pizza, if you want, or you can bring your own food in, except for alcohol. The brewery offers beers and a small selection of wine.

If you are not a beer drinker, we hope you still come! The Brewery offers more than beer; we would love a great turnout since this is always a fun event!

Have fun with gift ideas and your ugly (or cute) sweaters, and message Melissa if you have any questions!
