On December 10th the DeLorean Mid-Atlantic club held our 2005 Holiday party... but wait! Where are the DeLoreans?
We like to hold this event as just a social gathering for the owners. Since weather in the Mid-Atlantic region can tend to be very unpredictable this time of year, we encouraged members to leave their DeLoreans at home and just come to enjoy each other's company for the evening and have some fun!
The Club's Activity director Dan Deutsch (Evil Dan) did a great job of setting up a wonderful event for us a Dave and Buster's in Philadelphia PA.
What's Dave and Buster's? It's a great place to visit if you ever have the chance! It's like an arcade for kids AND adults! Pool tables, bowling, video games, food, music, sports, television and DRINKS. D&B has it all!
Marc Levy enjoys some friendly chat with other members (no... that's NOT a drink. It's a candle holder)
Carol and Scott McMullan enjoy each other's company. Get a room you two! ;)
Evil Dan... Don't let his innocent smile fool you. We call him 'Evil' for a reason.
Dan greeted members as they arrived (Ok... so he not SOOOO Evil)
Dan arranged for the DMA club to have our own private dining room and server for the evening. We really got the VIP treatment with a nice selection of music, decorations, drinks and food. Having our own room meant that we could setup and leave our personal possessions while we went and played in D&B's facilities. No hassles... no worries!
We had a total of 28 people at the 2005 Holiday party. Our largest turnout for a holiday party event to date! Everyone arrived hungry, but it wasn't a problem. We promptly had a buffet of great food to fill everyone up. One thing the DMA knows how to do is provide some great food at our events. ;)
After dinner, desserts and drinks, D&Bs provided each of the members with a VIP card for free games. It didn't take long before our inner child came racing out to have some fun.

With everything to do at D&Bs, it was hard to do it all, but we did our best! (Sorry we don't have pictures of all the fun and games, but we were having SO much fun, we actually forgot to take photos! ;)
Everyone who attended the event had a great time and enjoyed everything there was to offer. Sometime after midnight we finally wound things down, said our Holiday goodbyes and Happy New Year wishes before calling it a night.
Thanks again to Evil Dan for putting on such a great event for us to wrap up the club's most active year EVER!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! See you all at the Spring Social in 2006!
