Golf clubs celebrate with Christmas party
The Men’s Club held its annual Guys and Gals Christmas Party—for the first time since COVID—in Clubhouse 2 on Dec. 3. Sixtysix Men’s and Women’s Club members and their guests enjoyed a sumptuous Italian dinner catered by Finbars. Four different pasta dishes, three salads, meatballs, bread, wine, beer, and water, plus apple pie were served by three of President Marv Jones’ grandchildren.
Before and during dinner, donated items were given away by lottery, including Roger Dunn gift cards, Polly’s Pies monthly pie certificates and a round at Meadowlark Golf Course, plus an electric wine bottle opening kit from Dave LaCascia, and a dozen bottles of wine from new member Darry Holten and his wife Virginia.
After dessert, raffle tickets were drawn with multiple winners receiving $25 cash prizes. One table was a special winner with each person receiving $5.
The night was capped with the installation of the new Men’s Club board of directors. Outgoing President Marv Jones thanked all of the yearlong volunteers at the tournaments and other club functions, mentioning that the same 10-12 people have been doing most of the work. He added a hope that the other 70-plus club members get into the volunteering spirit for the next year.
Specialthankswereextended to Irvene Bernstein and Marilyn Hewitt, who checked in golfers for the Guy’s and Gal’s and Men’s tournaments several times each month.
