It’s almost time to beat a winter path to Weston again! Our annual wild-‘n’-wooly AONE Winter Dinner Party will be held the evening of Saturday, February 5th. This year’s shindig will again be held at the Josiah Smith Tavern in Weston, MA, the venue for countless AONE assemblages over the years. It’s a cozy, old, comfortable, wood-paneled, centrally located venue—perfect for our gathering—everyone agrees that there’s no better possible place!

Because the format works so well, dinner’s going to be pot luck once again. You Alfisti appear to be just as talented in your kitchens as you are in your garages! If you make a special dish (or can talk your significant other into making one for you), bring it along! This is an Italian car club, so Italian food is generally the focus, but it really doesn’t matter. Entrees, salads, breads, desserts—anything goes! There will be a kitchen available to warm things up.

This year, the theme for our Winter Party will be one of reminiscing over last year’s extraordinary club events. In lieu of an outside guest speaker, we’ll be presenting a round-up and discussion of all that took place, with heavy emphasis on our collective efforts in hosting the AROC national convention, widely regarded as one of the most successful ever. There’ll be plenty of visuals, and everybody will have a chance to join the conversation. Should be lots of fun!

And the main thing is that this is a party! The club will be supplying soft drinks, but if you prefer something a little more stimulating to the soul, feel free to bring your own. As always, there will be lots of door prizes, and you’re more than likely to go home with some sort of Alfa-oriented treat!

We’ll be kicking things off at 6PM. Significant others are much more than welcome—they keep us in line and help steer our conversations away from paint codes and crunchy syncros. Dress is casual.
