The Northern California Chapters of IAEM and EDPA had a very “jolly” joint Christmas party on Wednesday, December 14th in San Mateo, California. The group creatively decorated a dozen Christmas trees that were generously donated by Rossi Convention Services and then delivered to homes of families who would have otherwise gone without. Denise Simmons, TWI and Rick Bloom, Rick Bloom Audio Visual spearheaded the event and collected fabulous raffle prizes that inspired the 60+ attendees to donate hundreds of dollars earmarked for Katrina relief programs. The two groups plan to have other joint meetings in the future due to the big turn out and success of this one . . . a wonderful time was had by all! ![]() (L-R) Rossana Quezada-Clune, Denis Simmons, Chris Clark, Jessica Brenner, Melinda Stewart, Kevin Nute |
