It was a fabulous Christmas party and a great way to end the calendar year in the gracious home of Janice and Rusty Brown. We thank them for being our holiday hosts for the third year- it is becoming a tradition. Such a beautiful setting and an abundance of delicious festive food, including a "Buche de Noel" for dessert.
The house was filled with Yuletide spirit, and the lighted fireplaces and candle glow provided the perfect setting to welcome Paul Prescott as a new member. Bernie Westerveld was his sponsor and President Bob installed him by the fireside as we all cheered on.

Bob invited all Rotarians and families to attend our club sponsored Concert of Light. Since we could not sponsor Elisabeth von Trapp this year, we will still hold the concert at St. Mary's Church on Sunday Jan. 4th at 3pm.

See you on January 7th for a New Year's Club Night!
May you all have A Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and a Bright, Healthy New Year.
