It was a Jolly Good Time!
The Van Dyke Provides SFPRN
a Very Special Holiday Event!
December 2009 ― It was a jolly good time
at the December SFPRN holiday social at
the historic Lincoln Road hot spot,
The Van Dyke Cafe. This wonderful
social was possible by
Divian Mendoza of the Graspa Group,
the parent organization of the Van Dyke
and 6 other renown dining locations
[divian@graspagroup.com]. AND also
“THANKS!,” our own member, UM MBA
student
Andrea Evangelista along with the
invaluable help of
Jose Resendez fashion PR, Marketing
Manager of the unique Rollashoe’s (you
really must check this new hot product
out!).
A highlight of this evening was the
pleasure of awarding
the FIRST SFPRN service award to
Andrea Evangelista for her
initiative in creating a student
oriented presence for SFPRN and helping
to arrange for recent Miami-based
events.

A busy week of holiday socials had some
guests hitting two or three business
events in a row.
So, we were glad to see them make
a stop at the SFPRN event. Guests
included many top-notch PR Pros:
