Dear Neahkahnie Neighbors and Friends,
Now is the time I normally would be officially inviting you to the Neahkahnie Community Club’s 2021 Jingle ‘n Mingle holiday party and requesting your RSVP. Regrettably I instead am notifying you that the NCC Board decided to cancel this year’s Jingle ‘n Mingle scheduled for December 11th at the Pine Grove Community House.
In making this decision the Board considered a number of factors, including current CDC, state and county COVID 19 health and safety recommendations; the venue’s size and ventilation; our community’s higher risk level given age demographics; the party’s buffet style food service; and the high transmissibility of the Delta variant. Given that no one can predict the state of the pandemic on December 11th, the Board had to make its decision based on current information with community safety as its number one priority.
Hopefully as case numbers decline and the number of fully vaccinated individuals increases, we can return to safely enjoying social events such as the Jingle ‘n Mingle in 2022. In the meantime, the NCC Board wishes you and your loved ones a happy and healthy holiday season.
All the Best,
Jacki Hinton, President, Neahkahnie Community Club, 10/28/2021
