The holidays are here! Come out to celebrate in style with GET, and bring your spirit of giving in December. GET will be hosting its Holiday Extravaganza on the night of December 14th, from 5:30-9:30 at Half Moon Sports Grill in the Biltmore (location subject to change). Come out and enjoy free food and drinks with other young professionals. As it was noted at our October event, GET had decided to benefit St. Joseph the Worker through a clothing drive. To save $5 on registration, go clean out your closet of those old business shirts, slacks, skirts, shoes and belts, and donate them to someone less fortunate so that they can put their best foot forward and retain full time employment. We will have staff from the organization on hand to collect all of your items, and distribute tax receipts for everyone that donated. Register today, and start cleaning out that closet to help someone out!

Thank you to our sponsor for this event, SW Gas!
