As the holiday season approaches, the thoughts of the PPO’ers turn to last minute travel plans, turkey dinners and sunny days on the beach. But before wrapping up the year and bidding each other adieu, we took the time to celebrate another great year over a festive meal and plenty of bubbly.

The venue, a fancy schmancy restaurant where shoes are a non-negotiable allowed us to reflect on the successes of the past year and concoct future plans! I put my best fins on and sat at the head of the table, while the red and green reflections of the team’s attire sparkled on my bowl. This was definitely the best seat in the house!
