A very Happy Halloween and Happy Thanksgiving, Newcomers! We are planning more in-person events so watch your emails for more information about specific programs. Lots of day and/or time changes for events in November, so keep a sharp eye open for reminder emails.

TGIF was a great success at the town hall in October. See below for pictures. Newcomers are eager to come together for in-person activities and so we will be planning more in-person events this year and next—and the town hall is an excellent venue for everyone. Thanks to everyone who helped set up, clean up, and put chairs back in place.

Next TGIF is November 8, 5:30pm at Vicki Oldberg’s house. Note the change in time. We will send out reminders.

Book club in November will be in-person at the town hall. Because of the election, we will need to move book club from the usual first Thursday of the month to November 14, 3:30pm. Hope many of you can come!

Help us exchange and/or donate any type of fabric and clean, useable sewing supplies November 20, 1pm! Bring your fabric to Stitch and Chat at Jan Shideler’s house; leftovers will be donated to Fabmo in Sunnyvale. A good time was had with this event in October.

Other activities such as investment club, mah jongg, and bridge will proceed as usual.

We will be having a Christmas lunch December 11, so save the date!

Finally, we are having our board meetings in person; this month it will be at the Starbucks on Main Street, Los Altos, on Halloween, at 1pm and everyone is welcome!

Cheers, Birgitta and Leslie
