Subject: September Event Hosting Report

Dear Board:

Some highs, some lows, some midranges, for Event Hosting in September.

Liz Pagan reports that the September Evening of Music, held at Kleiner-Pagan World Headquarters, was attended by a "select" group of approximately 20, and that the food and conversation were "excellent." I would generally hope for a larger turnout, but Liz noted the obvious advantages of small song circles to participants who await their turn

I'm thrilled (and relieved) to note that Pamela Zave and Yolanda Fundora will host the Project's December Eve O'/Holiday party. Given P&Y's graciousness and artistic spirit, as well as the beauty of their home, I'm sure it will be a memorable event.

Two issues have arisen concerning the November Eve O'. Unfortunately, we have lost our host because of health issues. I have not yet found a replacement host, although Mark and Robin have generously offered to be the port in the storm if they are able. If anyone on the Board is able to host, please let me know. Also, I'm considering moving the date (probably to the third Saturday, Nov. 16), because the second Saturday conflicts with NERFA, and would appreciate the Board's opinion on that possible change.

As always, comments/suggestions/brickbats are welcome.

Submitted in the spirit of the Project,

Jay Wilensky
