Social Security Alumni.. Holiday Luncheon

The Baltimore Chapter of the Social Security Alumni Association has sponsored a Holiday luncheon for years. It has been held at an American Legion Post close to the Baltimore Beltway.

At first, the service and ambiance was marvelous and everyone enjoyed themselves. However, over the years, little by little, conditions have deteriorated until this year when almost every attendee complained to me. Here are some of their complaints:

The servers seemed surly and rude.

The food was not very well prepared.

Coffee was not readily available. Attendees had to ask the servers for access to the coffee location.

The bar service was extremely slow and the drinks were not well made.

Tableware was cheap.

The dessert was small and unappetizing.

In the past, we always had a few complaints, but on the whole, people were happy. However, this year, people called me over to their tables to complain and say that they would not return to this location in the future. One person even canceled his membership.

So... now you all have a great opportunity! You can help us find a new location for the next Holiday luncheon in November 2010.

What we need is a location that can provide us with:

Hors d'euvres (did I spell that right?)

A nice meal, with two or three choices and appetizing desserts.

Good bar service with a knowledgable bartender.

Ample parking.

Microphones for emcee facility.

Electric outlets for music players.

Close proximity to the Baltimore Beltway, which can be reached easily by persons anywhere in the Baltimore area.

And.. most important.. a reasonable price!

Please help us out on this. You can respond to this blog or call our office at
410-965-7434 or 410-965-7433.

Thank you. JoeVaughan
