The ECC celebrates the holidays at the Gin Palace

On December 12th, the ECC celebrated the holiday season in style! We dusted off our suits and little black dresses for a festive happy hour with friends and colleagues at Gin Palace, our new favorite cocktail lounge. The cozy space was perfect for relaxing after a long Wednesday. Delicious drinks were served, and the room hummed with conversation about upcoming vacation plans (oh, how brief those vacations felt!).

Donations to the Red Cross for Hurricane Sandy Relief were collected at the door, and the total came to $158.00. Huge thanks to all attendees for your contributions! We trust you enjoyed yourselves as much as we did, because let’s be honest — a classy soiree imbibed with holiday cheer, holiday giving, and gin and tonic on tap . . . what’s not to love?
