WASHINGTON, DC – The Society of Recovering Sorority Girls, through its founders Kristina "Morgan" Rose and Deandra "Brooksie" Brooks, want to remind party planners and hostesses everywhere that now is the time to start planning New Year’s Eve Parties. Alarmed by the current availability of tickets for New Year’s Eve hotel parties, Morgan and Brooksie encourage home entertainers to announce their parties early as well.

"The competition has reared its ugly head early this year," stated Morgan. "If home entertainers want to spare their guests the horror of another stale buffet at the local Holiday Inn, they must put the word out early that quality home-based options exist! "

"Like I’d ever wait in a line that long to get a drink or go to the bathroom," added Brooksie!

Typically Morgan and Brooksie wait until after Thanksgiving to send out the first e-mail about their signature New Martinis Eve party. However, since their strongest competition, large-scale hotel bashes, have already started advertising and selling tickets, they decided to announce their party early this year. Morgan and Brooksie encourage home entertainers to survey their local media and determine if New Year’s Eve invitations should go out prior to Thanksgiving as well.

"Prior to Christmas, your guests may not seem concerned about how they will spend New Year’s Eve, but once that last Christmas present is opened, it’s all they will think about," advised Morgan.

Advice for hosting a New Year’s Eve party will be available in the Society of Recovering Sorority Girls’ virtual chapter room at www.recoveringsororitygirls.com, under Celebrate December, on December 1.

"If you don’t have something fun planned, you’ll fall prey to Harry Connick Jr.’s ballad, What Are You Doing for New Year’s Eve and up with a date who tries to give your best friend a lap dance. It’s much better to plan ahead," concluded Brooksie.
