**Ready to Celebrate Another Great Year?**

Let's put on our party hats, pull the string on those confetti poppers, and hang with our fellow wordsmiths for the annual **SJWG Holiday Party**, hosted by the Board of Directors!

**What to expect:**

* Yummy food -- this year we've booked a private room at **Kunkel's Seafood & Steakhouse** in Haddon Heights
* Great Company -- You'll be with you fellow SJWG members; so, it's a given.
* and as is our tradition the **Annual Awards:**
* Every year we dedicate part of our celebration to recognizing the SJWG members that **you** feel stand out and deserve recognition. **[Fill out the nomination form for Writer of the Year HERE](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf1lwMJjEDgTictCdyptcaNr6j7MUzubWwhp9uZi2TrVQxoHg/viewform)** until November 28th at 12 noon.

(After you've nominated your choice for Writer of the Year, be sure to add a few lines about your achievements this year as a writer.)

* Likewise, the Board of Directors will also recognize those SJWG volunteers who have contributed to our success and award a "Volunteer of the Year" to one member who has gone above and beyond as a leader of the group. (Current Board members are not eligible.)

**Event Menu:**
Your dinner includes:

* garden salad
* hot & cold beverage service
* your choice of entree (see below)
* dessert

**Entree options:**

* *Chicken Marsala*

Sautéed chicken breast with mushrooms and shallots in a sweet Marsala wine demi-glaze served over mashed potatoes

* *Grilled Salmon*

Dessert options:

Please be sure to note your meal and dessert choice, and those of your guests. This will be a question when you RSVP and pay the fee. **If you do not complete this question, we will choose your meal for you.** (We need to provide the restaurant with a count!)

As we have in past years, SJWG will cover tax and gratuity. You are welcome to bring up to two guests and remember "BYOB".

We look forward to seeing you!
