Annual Mountaineers Potpourri

The Los Alamos Mountaineers will host the annual Potpourri at Fuller Lodge, with doors opening at 6:00 PM on Wednesday, December 10, 2025.  Potpourri is a stew that consists of one part potluck and six parts ten-minute talks, simmered slowly in conversation and camaraderie.

This is a Members Only event, so it is an excellent opportunity to renew or initiate your annual membership if you have not already done so.  You can do this in person at the Lodge with cash or check, or to avoid the line at the door, ahead of time with PayPal or credit card at http://lamountaineers.org/drupal7/Member_Benefits.html 

You can also print out and sign the waiver and deliver it to us.

Membership for 2025 is still a bargain at $15 for individuals or $20 for families.

Because this is a potluck, please bring a dish to share. The Club will provide chicken and vegetarian enchiladas, non-alcoholic drinks, and a large chocolate cake. You provide the salads, vegetables, breads, additional desserts (but there will be a lot of cake), and main course alternatives.

Dinner will begin at 6:30. Please bring a place setting - cups, plates, utensils - and a tablecloth for your table would be festive.  Bring your kit to Fuller Lodge. 

To benefit the homeless, we will be collecting for the St. Elizabeth Shelter in Santa Fe and for the Espanola Pathways Shelter:  tents, sleeping bags, backpacks, winter hats and gloves, and warm jackets for men and women. We will not accept any gear or clothing items other than those.  Please bring only clean and intact items.  Contain sleeping bags in a stuff bag or similar bag, or with straps. As well, please put clothing (jackets, hats and gloves) in plastic bags such as trash bags.

Bring your appetite, stories to share with your table mates and your enthusiasm for the six 10-minute talks, following directly after the potluck dinner.
