A huge party–attendance is expected to be somehwere around 1,000 people.

Date: December 6th (Saturday), 5PM – 7PM  [Front Desk opens at 4PM]

Venue: Heartfull, Morodomi Cultural Gymnasium [Oza Morodomito 52, Morodomi Town, Saga City]

What to Expect: Brass Band, King School Chorus, Handbell Performance, Guitar Performance (and, between you and me, I hear a bunch of Sasebo GIs are going to attend, with the permission of the base commander. Good opportunity to meet someone who can get you access to a military supply store!)

Entrance Fee: 500 yen (free for children up to 7–kids get free drinks and presents, too! Bring your school kids and butter them up.)

On the schedule is a potluck party as well, so bring some food if you can–anything, even an old tootsie roll you found in your back pocket. Of course, it wouldn’t hurt to cook something special or buy something nice for the occasion, you cheapskate.

The event is being organized by the Citizen’s Activity Association L.D.A. (Ladies’ Dream Action). For more information, or to ask about how you can volunteer to help make the party an even bigger success, contact:

Please RSVP for the party by contacting me, at b(dot)gesiak (at) gmail(dot)com. The deadline for reserving your ticket is November 30th (you can buy tickets at the door no problem, though. The LDA just wants an idea of how many people are coming by the 30th).

Anyway, sorry to be the middle-man here, but I was told to tell you guys to email me in order to reserve your spot, so them’s the breaks. Lemme know!
