SUMMER SOCIAL Tuesday, 06.25.2013

Summer is a few days away--and ok, although it isn't exactly that HOT out yet--we can all use a nice cool drink anyway...
So while things may seem quiet during the past few months at the SPD offices, there's a ton of planning in the works for another great year chock full of events for the 2013/14 season.
Join SPD for another More Fun, More Often event at Houston Hall on Tuesday, June 25th and join your peers for that well overdue drink you've been promising one another for months.

Holiday Party Treats!

We've had so many requests at SPD HQ about the delicious treats served at the close of the Holiday Bash on Wednesday, we wanted to share the info with all of you, so you can plot a pick-up of your own. So here's all you need to know about Bomboloni, those delicious treats:

In keeping with Italian design and consummate taste, Bomboloni's lusciously decadent bombolonis (Italian for donut - but nothing at all like Dunkin's) are available in an assortment of incredible gourmet flavors - from Meyer lemon and blood orange to toasted chocolate marshmallow and even chestnut. The flavor options are always on trend with the seasons and customer's latest requests. A box of 6 is available for a mere $7.00; a total must bring as we ramp up those holiday parties. Bomboloni has its home right at 187 Columbus Avenue.

Just in time for everyone on your NICE list!
