AMTA HOLIDAY LUNCHEON INVITATION
It’s that time of year again! Time to start planning for the 10th annual AMTA Holiday Luncheon. Please view the link below for a formal invitation from Sandy.
Also, click here for event information and registration form. Please fill out the registration and send back to Christina Rittenhouse by November 23, 2009. If you have any questions or need further information contact Christina Rittenhouse at 770-206-1445.
This year for AMTA’s holiday luncheon we are doing things a little different! We are asking our members to donate door prizes to be given out at our luncheon but what is different is that the prizes will be wrapped. Since most of us don’t get the thrill of Santa bringing presents anymore (because you know you are on his naughty list) we thought it would be fun to receive a wrapped gift.
Organizations and businesses that are willing to donate are asked to email Beth Bailey at the Clayton County CVB at beth@visitscarlett.com so that we know what kind of prizes to expect. Then simply bring your wrapped door prize with a tag on the outside listing the donating organization.
If, for some reason, you will be unable to attend this year’s holiday luncheon but would still like to donate a door prize please contact Beth to make pick up arrangements.
Let’s make this fun and give (and get) some great door prizes!
