Jim McEldrew’s Annual Railroad Worker Holiday Party

We look forward to another great turnout of SEPTA workers and others in the railroad industry. Although we are sad that it could not be held at Pennsylvania 6 again (since they closed), we are looking forward to celebrating the holiday season at a new venue with old and new friends.

Past and present clients are, of course, welcome and should be receiving the below postcard invitation in the mail. If we don’t have your address but you work for a railroad in the area, you are also free to join us – just make sure that you are RSVP so that we know you are coming.

In order to let the restaurant know how many people to expect, please RSVP by Tuesday, November 28, 2017 to Jessica Dinsdorf at McEldrew Purtell. She can be reached at (215) 545-8800 (ask for Jessica) or email to jd*******@*************ll.com .

The details from the invite are below. We look forward to seeing you in early December!
