`Tis the Season for the neighborhood holiday party of the year -- the Annual Cardozo Shaw Neighborhood Association Holiday Party and Silent Auction!  Come meet and celebrate with your neighbors and celebrate CSNA's and our neighborhoods' 2008 successes!

 

Come party with CSNA and your neighbors "Up on the Roofdeck!" on Thursday, December 11, 2008 at Nellies' Sports Bar, 900 U Street, NW.  The fun begins at 7 pm and ends, well, honestly, whenever.

 

You do not need to be a CSNA member to enjoy in the fun, but the Holiday Party is always a great time to renew or join for 2009!

 

The theme of this year's party is "Dine, Shop, Experience Your Neighborhood – It’s All Here!" and once again, the silent auction features food, wine, and entertainment - including some fine wines, jewelry, and gift certificates for many of your favorite spots in the neighborhood, Ben's Chili Bowl, Chix, Duffy's Irish Pub, Marvin, Lee's Flower Shop, Solly's U Street Tavern, Town, and much more!

Silent auction items continue to grow by the day - and an updated list of auction items will be posted soon.

Emergency legislation was approved by the D.C. Council on December 2, 2008, which will allow any DC establishment with a liquor license, including restaurants, taverns, and nightclubs, to serve alcohol until 5 am, and serve food 24 hours a day, from January 17 until the morning after Obama's swearing-in on January 20, 2009.

 

Many are expecting record crowds for President-Elect Obama's Inauguration .

 

Both The Washington Post and Washington City Paper have stories on this legislation.

 

Mayor Adrian Fenty has yet to sign the legislation into law.
