Monday, 7 Dec 2009,  7:30 P.M., “Surprise!” Christmas –  Ah yes, a time of surprise, wonder
and good cheer!
And our December program promises all that and maybe even a little more.
So we ask that you bear with us as we work to make this program a complete surprise.  We
don't think you will be disappointed.

 Of course, this year, again, we are implementing the “voluntary admission fee.”  For those who
wish to participate the admission fee is one or more non-perishable food items per member. 
These items will then be distributed among the less fortunate families in the area. This is not
“mandatory!”  It was, however, a big help to the local food program the last 2 years, and we
would like to do that again this year.

Guests are always welcome. Refreshments will be severed.
