As is traditional, instead of a members’ meeting we held a Christmas Party in December. There is no speaker and no club business meeting. Instead we had a pot luck and sit and chat. Here follows the social committee report:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
The VLMS annual Christmas party was held at the Lawn Bowling Club on Monday, December 5 th , 2022.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
The Club was decorated with fir boughs and colored metallic bows, and the seating was in a horse-shoe arrangement so that everyone could see each other and chat comfortably.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Members were asked to sign up with the item or dish that they had chosen to bring, and although only 19 members signed up originally, the ranks swelled for a total of 38 people in the end.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
There was a well rounded variation of items, like turkey, ham, sausages, scalloped potatoes, German style sauerkraut and red cabbage, raw veggies and dip, Greek salad, a large Caesar salad, 3-cheese appetizer with crackers, cranberry salad, guacamole and tortilla chips, and multiple wonderful desserts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Thank you all, who brought the delicious food!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
There was an optional gift exchange. Next year we hope to have more of a program, with prizes to be won.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Pictures were taken of everyone and they will be submitted for the next Laphound News.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Everyone cleaned up with an amazing efficiency, and the whole event finished at 8:30pm.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
