HAPPY HOLIDAYS Mansfield Quality Pro's,

Hope you all had a fine Thanksgiving. These days are short and they seem to be turning fast. Christmas will be here before we're ready. But before that, we have our Mansfield ASQ Social Dinner Meeting. Our Social Meeting is intended to be shared with our members spouses, significant others, or guests.

This year we will be enjoying the Malabar Farms "Candlelight Holiday Tour". Tour Louis Bromfield's Big House all decked out for the holidays while enjoying freshly baked cookies and hot cider.

It has been about 10 to 15 years since our section has toured Malabar. But I can still remember what a great historic and beautiful estate Malabar is. And the Christmas decorations makes it all the more amazing.

FRIDAY, FRIDAY, FRIDAY This month's meeting has moved to Friday since Malabar Farms was not set up to give tours Thursday evening. So if you're not already booked for Friday the 11th, come and join us for an evening of fine fellowship and splendor. Give Caryn a call or email by Wednesday noon to let her/us know you're coming.

As always, if you know of any local Quality job opportunities or any Mansfield ASQ members who have changed their email address recently, please reply to let me know. I want to share job op's and keep our email distribution list current.

Hope to see you next Thursday FRIDAY.

Best regards,

Joe

About Malabar Farm Restaurant:

The Malabar Farm Restaurant, located in beautiful Pleasant Valley in southern Richland County, holds a rich history all its own. Completed in 1820 by David Schrack and his sons, the two story home was made from bricks formed on site. In 1941 the Schrack Place became part of the Malabar Farm, home of the Pulitzer Prize winning author, farmer, and conservationist Louis Bromfield.
