PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE:

Happy New Year! We wrapped up 2010 with a fabulous White Christmas dinner dance chaired by Nancy Hagosian and Michael and Anna Bolechowski. We enjoyed delicious food by Skyler St. John/Tiffany Bloom Catering, and danced it off to great music by Tony Macaroni’s band.

We missed the snow falling outside, but inside, the clubhouse was decorated with ice and snow – everything from the trees to the individual place cards done by Anna Cristoforo, who lent us many of her personal decorations to make this event festive. Michael’s Martini & Manhattan bar and his smoked salmon hors d’oeuvres were a great success. Thanks to Walt Farrell for leading us in singing carols while we were being served a chocolate Yule log dessert. I would like to thank Nancy, Anna B., Michael, and Anna C. for a great job of organizing the event. You have to agree it was a GREAT PARTY even without the snow!

Thanks also to everyone who helped with decorating the clubhouse. Thanks to Donna Earhart for the Filoli outing, to Louise Bacigalupi and Ann Rieger-Matthews for chairing the Wreath Making Day. And many thanks to Darlene and Les Hartman, Kathe and Walt Farrell, Craig and Cathy Viehweg, et al, for braving the weather to beautifully decorate the Christmas tree outside.

All the decorating was done on a wet and rainy day, I was happy to provide soup and salad for those who came to help to make them a little warmer.

Finally, we would like to thank Dan Kelly and the FHA Board for providing the outdoor tree and greens for wreath-making day.
