Another wonderfully, abnormal warm humid fall day brought in only one ghoul (me) as the call for pre-Halloween garb failed to draw any takers!  The weather was unseasonably warm and with another fantastic crowd, the Café was rockin’ with an excellent turnout, lots of noise and conversation.  My Halloween costume was one of the topics of conversation.  Others included the environmentally conscientious exotic smelling soaps from Smellme as well as our Nov. 23rd Young Adults networking session (bring your high school or college age kid) and the great group of newbies who attended.  Thank you to all of you for referring our newbies and sending them to our event. We had a solid percentage of newbies show up this time around and most of their referrals attended too.  Remember if you invite someone, please attend yourself & make sure they bring business cards!  We certainly had more than 50+ present.  Dennis Acker gave a great spotlight speech & reiterated the 20% off for all orders coming from it4dc members (great holiday gift).  Checkout the photos http://www.it4dc.com/it4dc.php?page=pics.php on the website & see what a fabulous time we had as well as some of the "newbies" who attended. Additional thanks to Alyson (bartender) and the Café Montmartre management team for their hospitality & the wonderful appetizers provided to us. Our next event will be at the Westin Hotel, Tyson’s Corner, VA location on Tuesday November 9th. Please invite all the folks you can think of to continue to drive a big turnout and continue 2010 in style and make this year even more successful than 2009! Thank you all for your continued support
