   DAMA Christmas Party (Premium)

  Please join us on Friday Dec 12th as we thank our Premium members for their supporting paid membership which enables us to cover speaker expenses and other administrative expenses. . 

  This will be an informal Christmas gathering to end the year on a festive data note. Your drink and great food is included in your $5 fee - which we are donating to the Foodbank. Please let us know if you have any dietary restrictions - the sandwiches will be half veggie/seafood and the other half meaty. 

  There won't be a presentation so it will be more like a Low Key Data Happy Hour with a free drink, fantastic food, and the same amazing networking and data conversations.
