      <title>Social Hour with MVMA (10 Dec 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;h1&gt;&lt;font face="Calibri, sans-serif, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_0, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_0, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_0"&gt;Gift Wrap Party!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Join MVMA for its bi-monthly social &amp;amp; networking event. Every other month MVMA will plan social gatherings for members &amp;amp; non-members to network and get to know each other.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The holidays are stressful already, so let's be productive while we chat/socialize/network!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;MVMA will provide light refreshments (hot beverages and sweets) and gift wrapping materials, so all you'll need to do is bring in gifts that need to be wrapped. You may also use this as encouragement to get some shopping done earlier.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you don't have anything to wrap, come socialize with us anyway!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This event is completely free to attend--even parking.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
