 Christmas At The Grill

December 11, 2011

Vol 13 No 3

The sleigh bells were ringing at the Point Pinos Grill on December 11, 2011 at the annual Christmas gathering of the Monterey Cypress MG Club.

When the Merry Carolers walked into the room, sounded the pitch pipe and began singing just about every Christmas carol known to man you were sure Christmas is just around the corner. The carolers were dressed in “Dickensian Style”

The trio went from table to table asking each one for their request. All three have beautiful voices and blend perfectly.

There were 24 members of the club in attendance. We had the private room to our selves. The menu was very good with chicken and beef along with salad, vegetables and desert.

A few annual things. Bruce Obbink was elected President and Pat Whittaker was elected Vice President. Pat gave a report on a recent trip to Davenport, north of Santa Cruz, and said it seemed to be an ideal spot for an overnight adventure. She said Judy Obbink and she would make a trip up this spring and see if we couldn’t put something together.

The Lindsey’s suggested a trip out on River Road with a destination to their home. Would be a great trip about the time the wild flowers are coming out.

Bruce Obbink reported the club membership was down to 24 from a top in 2005 of 35 members and welcomed Dick Vance back as an active member.

The centerpieces were beautiful. At the end of the meeting people looked at the back of their chair and the one with a sticker was able to take the center piece home for the holidays.

 

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and a Joyous New Year.
