A friend remarked that due to the economic downturn he noticed that there seemed to be fewer Holiday Parties sponsored by companies and local organizations. That may very well be true, but I assure you that there are still plenty of Holiday Fesitivies in the city. Not everyone is free, but of those that do charge, the fees are modest and many benefit charitable organizations. Either way, you know your hostess has you covered. Here's your chance to network and nosh with St. Louis' finest this Holiday.
