Little
Rhody's Christmas Party was held on December 3rd. We met at Richard's Pub for the second year,
and had 42 members and guests in attendance.
We were able to enjoy appetizers and then a beautiful buffet in the
Pub's renovated function room. John
Mennucci was our musical coordinator/DJ.
The new
officers were introduced, and Dottie Cece and Susan Mosca volunteered to
jointly fill the unfilled position of Hospitality Chairperson. Moe and Jan Rousseau were selected for the Carole
Hathaway Burns award, and Bob and Evie Osborne received the Herbert R. Allen
award. Santa Clause made his annual visit just after dinner.
The long awaited drawing for Al Silvia's mystery gift took place at the same time as Santa's arrival, making for a little confusion as everyone applauded for Ken Trudel - the winner! The mystery gift was a Model-Leg Lamp - amazing us all and causing chuckles all around. Also included in the gift were a $100 gift certificate to the Lobster Pot restaurant and a bottle of champagne. A large assortment of toys were donated by the members for the "Toys for Tots" program and we filled up Richard Mowry's vehicle for the trip to the donation center. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!
