On Saturday evening, November 16th, interested Iowa Chapter members will gather at the Flix Brewhouse theater at Merle Hay Mall in Des Moines for the 8:30pm showing of the new movie, “Ford vs Ferrari”. It tells the story of the 1966 battle when Henry Ford had car designer Carroll Shelby and driver Ken Miles challenge Ferrari for the win at LeMans, France. The movie features Matt Damon as Carroll Shelby and Christian Bale as Ken Miles. You can view some previews here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xAkCqox_MhE. and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3h9Z89U9ZA.
Seating at the theater is on a reserved basis and can be purchased on-line here: https://www.flixbrewhouse.com/des-moines/film-info/ford-v-ferrari. Note: While the movie begins at 8:30pm, you’ll need to plan to arrive 20-20 minutes prior for seating and for the staff to take & deliver any food or beverage orders.
Hope to see you there!

The Iowa Chapter is again looking for folks to help plan and chair events in 2020! Have you ever thought of an idea for an event, but weren’t sure how to make it a reality? Did we host something that you enjoyed in the past, but we don’t do it anymore? Come out to Alison and Chris’ house for some Pizza on Sunday November 17 at 11:30 am and help us plan the 2020 calendar of events. As an extra incentive there will be Pizza and Brown Pop (translation BEER!). Hope to see you there. Look for the Club Banners out front.

It’s in a small retail center just north of I-80 and east of 86th Street behind the Burger King. Those participating will taste 5-6 wines (Allan & Gina’s selection of white and red) and have the opportunity to complement those wines with perhaps a cheese plate or personal pizzette should you decide to purchase those food items. The store also has a large selection craft beers, chocolates and gift items..perhaps something there as a holiday gift item? Come enjoy a bit of pre-holiday fun with fellow club members!

Kick off your holiday season with friends enjoying the 2.5 mile drive and the over 100 illuminated holiday displays while benefitting a great cause for kids.
