Christmas Party Dec 3rd
Another year is coming to a close. We had 19 members gather at Floridino's Pizza and Pasta for our annual Christmas Dinner on Saturday night, Dec 3rd. The tables were decorated with lots of holiday cheer, thanks to David and Marian Dean’s time and talents. The gift boxes were adorned with Cactus Corvair Club logos as well as Corvair images, snowmen and such. Inside was a tasty selection of chocolate treats.
We had 19 in attendance including long time members Charlie Dye and Linda Casey who always have a story from way back in the history of the club. The dinner was a buffet style with several entrees to choose from. There was more than enough food and several members shared taking home the extras.
We held a short December club meeting after we ate and incoming President, David Dean, presented John Seaman with a president-to-president gift in thanks for his hard work as the club president for so many years.
The toy and food donations this year were almost too much to fit inside just one vehicle but with some creative packing, John was able to get them loaded for delivery to local charities before Christmas arrives.
Thanks to everyone for another great year and hope to see you all in 2017.
