Our Guest Speaker will be Elizabeth C Grieco, Chief, Foreign-Born Population Branch, Population Division, US Census Bureau. She will be providing insight into where foreign nationals have moved to in the last decade. This information should be both interesting and invaluable to our consular members.

For our Lunch, Chef Tate has put together the following menu for us:

First Course: Pumpkin Soup with Crispy Sage

Main Course: Roasted Chicken Breast with Marcapone Potato Puree, Mushrooms, and Marala Jus

Dessert: White Chocolate Bread Pudding with Cranberry Compote

Fine Red and White Wine

Imported Tea and Coffee
