HOLIDAY PARTY – Yankee Trace

By / CNOtes, Holiday Party /

Tonight we celebrated the holiday season. Everyone got their pictures taken by the holiday tree. After dinner we were entertained by “Center Stage,” a 9-lady chorus. There was a poinsettia as the centerpiece on each table. A prize ticket taped to the bottom of one chair at each table determined who got to take the poinsettia home. Special thanks to the social committee Beth Duncan, Diane Arehart, Val Huff, Sue Jessee, and anyone else that helped make tonight happen. The room decorations were beautiful and it was a festive night!
