COMSAT Social September 19, 2010
The 2010 Social and Annual Meeting will be held at the Golden Bull Grand Cafe in Gaithersburg.
Prices from businesses that can host our group for the social have been rising each year.
Denis Curtin and Irv Dostis talked to a number of hotels and restaurants before
selecting the Golden Bull. The cost for this year's social will be $30 for paid members and guest.
The Board did agree to subsidize part of the cost to keep it at the $30 level. Advance reservations
are required. Mail your check to the PO Box before September 13.
Denis Curtin negotiated an outstanding menu for this year's social.
The menu features Carved Round of Beef, Chicken Supreme with white wine sauce, and
Seafood Newburg with rice along with vegetables, salads, and dessert. A cash bar is
available. The Golden Bull Grand Cafe is in Gaithersburg and is easily reached
from I-270.
