RSVP PLEASE…\n \;\nMark your calendars for the premier event of the season\, the After Holiday Party and Yankee Swap.  North Country Reg ion has put this event back on the calendar\, and we hope to make it even more fun and frenetic than some of you might remember. The social time and lunch are quite spectacular enough\, even in a group that defines itself as a “social club\, with a serious car problem”\, but the Yankee Swap makes the event. \n \;\nA “Gift Exchange” is merely a mild descri ption of the feeding frenzy that takes hold at this triple steal event.  Our own Ellen and Bob\, who have run this event in Chesapeake Region for y ears\, have agreed to host and emcee it this year\, putting a little bit o f zip and zing into the proceedings. \n \;\nBring a wrapped “car-re lated” gift\, valued at approximately $25-$30 if you want to play.  (Of course\, if you prefer\, you may attend the event and not participate in the Swap but be prepared to feel left out once the fun begins!)  Be sure to bring a nice gift that you yourself would like to take home\, because y ou never know what will happen!  All gifts are placed on the table and na mes are drawn one at a time… each person has the choice of choosing and unwrapping a new gift or stealing one that has been opened before. That pe rson then has the choice to steal someone else’s gift or open a new one\ , followed by one more turn. Only 3 steals are allowed per round\, and the n the next person must choose a new gift – and gifts can only be stolen once per round.   If you don’t quite follow\, never fear\, it will all become clear as the swap unfolds… and Bob and Ellen will make sure you smile so much your cheeks hurt!\nThe meal will be “order from the menu ” and Paddy’s will do separate checks.  \nhttps://www.paddysgrille.co m\n \;\nQuestions?  Contact:\nEllen\nEbeck944@comcast.net\n301-788-03 70 CATEGORIES:Tech Session LOCATION:Paddy's American Grill\, 27 International Drive\, Portsmouth\, NH\ , United States GEO:43.086175;-70.807317 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=27 International Drive\, Po rtsmouth\, NH\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Paddy's American Grill:geo:43.086175,-70.807317 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/New_York X-LIC-LOCATION:America/New_York BEGIN:STANDARD DTSTART:20221106T010000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0400 TZOFFSETTO:-0500 TZNAME:EST END:STANDARD END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
