DECEMBER 19th – The Vault
Join us for some Christmas Cheer as the DREMA Dems Coalition celebrates another holiday season together. Bring some friends – no speechifying, lecturing or proselytizing – just some good old fashioned fun. So mark your calendar for December 19th and join the fun at the newly converted Vault on Hale Street .
The Vault is just one of many new bars and restaurants being opened by area entrepreneurs. This new nightclub once housed the West Virginia Diamond Exchange – a girl's best friend. Our Christmas Cheer night will be catered by the newly opened South Hills Market & Café. So bring an appetite. A cash bar will be available and you may be the lucky winner of the door prize drawing.
We look forward to seeing as many of you and your friends as the Christmas Season allows.
