T’was a Very Merry Christmas Party!
Kati White 

Yes, it was a merry Christmas Party indeed!  Forty-two of us, including nine from eLifeAdventure, ate and ate…then ate some more.  This year’s party was at the Capitol City Hotel which used to be the Fulton Inn, or the Clarion or the Ramada or what ever.  We were in the Fulton Room which had recently been remodeled but I think they got the heat mixed up with the air conditioning.

The Christmas tree and decorations were lovely and added much to the ambiance of the room.  People mixed, chatted and enjoyed socializing.  And then once we started to eat, the Hors d’ouvres just kept coming!  There were over 18 different kinds of Hors d’ouvres and a lot of each one.  When one type ran out, another replaced it.  Then we had decadently delicious chocolate cake with Raspberry filling and creamy frosting for dessert. If anyone went home hungry, it was their own fault.  Don Girard seemed to like the BBQ meatballs in particular.

Lee Johnson and Don Girard started off the Karaoke with their version of something but I’m not sure what.  Anyway, it started the merriment and had everyone laughing.  Several people danced, boogied or wiggled to the music.

Rick Dangles was the winner of the Grand Prize of 3 days, 2 nights stay at the luxury condo resort in Windsor donated by President Persons. Bob McDonald won the 5 course, sit-down dinner for six.  Others won lift tickets, full body massage from Eric Schmidt, baskets with all sorts of goodies and other prizes.  Everyone who came received tickets to the Home & Garden Show in January and at the end of the evening, everyone went home winners.

Thank you to everyone who came and made it fun.  I hope you had a very Merry Christmas and that you will all have a Happy, Healthy & Prosperous New Year.
