On Monday, Dec. 10th, AmCham will hold its Holiday Mixer at the St. Regis Hotel 1st Floor Bar. But this is no ordinary holiday season shindig โ€“ it's the members' opportunity to formally bid AmCham President Kenneth Jarrett a festive and hearty farewell. Yes, after enduring five years of all us, Ken is letting slip the moorings and heading out to explore oceans afresh.


We hope as many members as possible will join us to celebrate Ken's contributions to the Chamber, to raise a glass to the endeavors he will pursue in the years ahead, and to give him a farewell โ€“ even a hangover - he will never forget.


We'll have cocktails, wine and canapesโ€ฆand a very, very Long Bar awaits members who want to buy Ken a drink. A few members will rib, roast or toast our departing helmsman. Just don't expect to see this one swimming across the Yangtze.


17:30 - 18:00 Registrations

18:15 - 18:30 Going down the memory lane โ€ฆโ€ฆ.

18:30 - 18:40 Ken's speech

18:40 - 18:45 Closing remarks

18:45 - 19:30 Cocktail reception


Look forward to seeing you all. Don't forget to rsvp quickly - as it's a popular event, indeed!
