Dear MPI Members, Partners, Colleagues and Friends:
Your MPIOC Team has put a great deal of thought into whether or not to go ahead with Wednesday’s Annual Spring Social. With the continuing barrage of COVID-19 news bulletins and the stress many of us are feeling in our jobs, we felt it important to remain connected.
With thelatest guidelines from the CDC in mind, however, we have decided to postpone this Wednesday’s in-person event to ensure we make the most responsible decision for the health and wellbeing of all.
SO… LET’S TAKE THIS PARTY ONLINE! Join MPIOC President Pawntra Shadab and MPIOC Director of Special Events Alivia Kimotho for our Spring Auction Watch Party this Wednesday from 6-8 pm!
- We’ll be flooding MPIOC’s social media channels with live updates on auction packages and giveaways. Tune in for your chance to win prizes from Bubba Gump Shrimp Company, Hornblower Cruises, Pacific Park at the Santa Monica Pier and more.
- Our ONLINE AUCTION will continue to stay open for bidding through Wednesday March 18th at 8:00 PM as originally planned. Visit BIDMPI.com to submit your bids now!
Arabian Nights will be back better than ever for our Summer Social in August. All paid tickets for this month’s event will be automatically be transferred to our new August event date.*
We’ll have more details tomorrow on how to be part of the Spring Auction Watch Party — so watch your email inbox and our social media channels for more information:
