The date has been set, so please mark your calendars!  This is our only fundraiser for DSIG and it helps to pay for all of the wonderful events that we offer all year long.  If you have a business that you know would like to be a sponsor of this event, please contact Patty White at [email protected].  Look for more details about this event in the next few weeks!  It takes a village to run this event, so I will be in touch shortly about ways that families can get involved this year.

Please join us at the Annual DSIG Holiday Party for an evening of dining, dancing, and connecting with old friends and meeting some new friends. Of course, no holiday party would be complete without a visit from the big guy in the red suit!

Please RSVP responsibly to Megan Califano at [email protected] by Friday, November 23, 2018 (the day after Thanksgiving). We are unable to accept late RSVP’s after that date as we need to give the venue our count. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding!

We are also once again asking that each family bring $10 worth of non-perishable food items that evening, which will be donated to the St. Katharine Drexel Food Pantry in Chester, PA. This is our way of giving back to the community and helping those in need. If you do not have time to shop, monetary donations will be accepted as well. For more information on this food cupboard and their grocery list, please visit, www.orgsites.com/pa/skd/. We look forward to once again making the holidays a little brighter for our neighbors in need.

We will also be collecting the $10.00 DSIG Membership Dues at the holiday party for the 2019 membership year. If you pay at the party, you can have one item checked off on your “To Do List” for 2019. Checks should be made payable to DSIG and of course, cash is always welcome.

We hope everyone had a great summer and are getting back into the swing of things now that Fall has officially begun! It’s time to begin a new year with DSIG, so please join us for our first meeting of the season at our new meeting location, Widener University!

When: Thursday, 9/26/19
Time: 7:00pm
Where: Widener University, University Center
2nd Floor, Room F

We will not have a speaker for this meeting, as it will just be a time to catch up with old friends & possibly meet some new friends! We hope to see you there!

We hope to see you there!

The next event is planned and we hope you can attend!!!
We will be renting a 50 person wagon at Linvilla on Tuesday, Oct 22nd! The wagon leaves PROMPTLY at 5:45. They ask that we show up 30 mins prior to the hayride to ensure everyone is on in time! I know my husband missed it the last time we did this event by literally a minute!

This event will be open to our birth-5 and 6-12 group.

The event is free for DSIG paid members 😊


We can only take the first 50 RSVPs. Please RSVP respectfully as the DSIG is paying $8 per person to attend, and other people would gladly fill the spots! 🍁🎃👻

Please email Kelsey at [email protected]. Kelsey will be in contact with the first 50! 😀

The annual DSIG Holiday Party will be held on Wednesday, December 4, 2019, from 6 to 9 PM at Paxon Hollow Country Club. Come join us for a night of dinner, dancing & great friendship! RSVP is required for this event.

Please email Megan at [email protected] with the number of adults and number of children (12 and under). There is a strict RSVP date of Friday, November 29, 2019. No late responses will be honored.

As in years past, we will be collecting for a local food pantry, so please bring a $10 donation or $10 in food items, and consider this your admission to the party.

Last but not least, annual dues will be collected for 2020 at this event. Our dues will remain the same as in previous years at $10 per household.
