OLD BUSINESS
- Holiday Party – The party was held on Tuesday, December 3rd at Palo Verde, and was a great success. The attendees expressed the preference for this year’s sit-down dinner this year instead of a buffet. Thank you to Alice Jardine, year’s party coordinator for all her hard work. Pat Marquis, Gelene Jonaz and Nancy Hibbard for the great job they did collecting and presenting our raffle items and a very BIG Thank You to all our members who donated items to the Raffle this year. Really lovely items were donated by the extremely talented set of artists.
