Thanks to all that turned out last night to make our annual holiday membership meeting a smashing success.  

Check out photos from the meeting here.

Some observations on this year's event after the flip: 

Couldn't make it to the big holiday party last night?  Here's what you missed:

• New IKEA members in the House!
• Passed the hat, raised $1700 for a member in need at Safeway Dairy
• More wine gifted, fewer nuts
• Popcorn makers were THE big ticket item
• Five crisp hundred dollar bills raffled off (who doesn't like cash?)
• 117 is kicking *&^, fighting for $15 in SeaTac & Seattle 
• Lots of fist pumps from Santa
• Ryerson Steel scored, not once, but twice (2 tvs!)
• Raised $$$ for the Arthritis Foundation in honor of a fellow member at Hertz (thanks FM Teamsters!)
• Packed hall, standing room only
• Another great event, thanks all!
