On December 11th
Raritan River Region members assembled at a familiar place, Il Forno
Restaurant in Warren, NJ. This was our third holiday party to be held at
Il Forno and by the end of the day we full well knew why we keep coming
back! Salad to start, a very pleasing and tasty Antipasto followed by my
favorite, a good old plate of macaroni. That should be enough, but not
for us Regionnaires as the macaroni plates were cleared the main course
was served. Here we had a tasty list to choose from, but don’t be
worried, each choice proved to be a winner! Although we didn’t think
there was any room left, a quick loosening of the collar allowed just
enough space for coffee and dessert!
As is tradition,
Bob & Grace Gluck
handled the Gift Raffle and auction. This dynamic duo, assisted by Bob
Rankin had the audience laughing and cheering throughout the day. Just
take a look at all those smiling faces in the photos!
Once again
Clara Crimmins
donated a beautiful, hand made afghan artfully stitched in our region
colors. This fine piece was auctioned off during the day with the
proceeds benefiting the club treasury.
Thanks Clara!
Each year these
parties grow in size and this year was no exception. A great group of
people, great food, camaraderie and good cheer. That’s what the holidays
are all about! |
