Christmas
At The Grill

Vol

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.
