We’ll start with a delicious catered dinner and fellowship at 5:30pm followed by a preview of this year’s presentation, “The Star Still Shines.” If you’d like to attend the dinner, please RSVP to Michelle at michellem@hoffmantown.org so we can reserve a meal for you. Or you can just show up to the Christmas preview portion of the evening starting around 6:15pm. Either way, we’d love to have you!
