Jane's
Birthday Celebration 2015
Jane Austen’s birthday
celebration will return to the Heritage House, a Downtown Historic Bed and
Breakfast, located at 207 High Street NE, Albuquerque, N.M. for an afternoon
tea on December 12, 2015 from 1-3 p.m. The cost will be $32.16 including tax.
The deadline for getting your checks to Joanne is December 3. Please mail your
check to Joanne McCloskey, 1301 Hertz Drive. SE, Albuquerque, NM 87108. Joanne
has asked that you call her and let her know how many will be attending. She
may be reached at 350-7106 (cell) or her home phone at 266-3588.
A map to the Heritage House is attached.
The
refurbished Heritage House features architectural elements of the time it was
built in 1907. The beautiful tapestries, antique stained glass, and elegant
antiques highlight the Victorian features throughout the house. The spacious
suites and quaint, but elegant, rooms in the house retain the historical
ambiance and feel of the original house built over 100 years ago.
Refreshments
will be provided. If you have any special dietary constraints, please let
Joanne know when you register.
Joanne
has suggested that we all come prepared with a favorite reading from any of
Jane’s books. As usual, costumes are welcome but not required.
Don’t
forget, we also have two items in our raffle
occurring during Jane’s Birthday celebration in December. Tickets for each item
are $10.00 each and may be obtained at the meeting.
First we have a repeat of a very popular selection from last year – Tana Reber
is offering to make a Regency Dress for one lucky winner – the specifications
are shown on the image. Tana will create the dress especially for the winner of
the Raffle. Joanne has donated a rug for our raffle – the tickets for this item
are also $10.00 each and will be available the next meeting.
We look forward to seeing you to help celebrate Jane's birthday.
It at any time you
decide that you don't want to continue to receive our notices, you only need to
send a short email to dal@jasnanm.com
and I will be happy to remove you from our list. If you know additional
individuals who might like to receive our mailings, a simple request to the
same address will insure that it is done.
