Here's how it works. You sign up on the website and are assigned your first house based upon your last name. Bring a savory or sweet item to share. RHA is providing wine, Prosecco, beer and sparkling water. You can stay at your first house or progress on to the other two homes!
Dress festive or comfortable and we'll see you around the tree. A BIG thank you to our three hosts Kelli Porthan and Tom Wiegele, Becky and Kit Richardson and Juell and Ray Roberts!
​
In an effort to let us know how many people to expect at each home, please RSVP to the starting home that corresponds with your last name by Thursday, December 7. via the link below! This will give us an idea of how the guest list is distributed amongst the three homes, and can adjust if need be.
