3 PRESIDENTS MESSAGE Dear GR Members, Happy Holidays to all. Yes it is that time of year that we give thanks with turkey and the thought of toys for tots from Santa. We almost didn t think it would come with the summer heat some of us experienced a couple of weeks ago. However, fall looks like it has arrived and hopefully maybe winter will be upon us soon. If you missed last meeting in September, or if you were one of the 35 who attended, the video program of Waiting for Waldemar was something to behold. Also at this meeting was the unveiling of Barbara Horn s (a chapter member), children book titled Sophia s Grandma. Some of us had the opportunity to purchase a copy at the last meeting. Information to purchase this book, one of four in the series, is described elsewhere in this newsletter. Our next time to meet is Saturday, December 2 nd at the Phoenix Club. In addition to the great food, we will be entertained by the bell choir, Glissando Bells in their Ring Christmas Bells presentation. This should be a great program for the holidays that you will not want to miss. So make your reservation now. Also, in addition to the raffle tickets for the white elephants, (yes, bring a white elephant if you choose to do so), will be the opportunity to purchase Stollen, that German Christmas coffee `cake`. So, have I wet your appetite to be one of the guests at our Holiday meeting? I hope I have. As I opened this message, summer is gone (I hope), fall is here, and winter is upon us for a festive holiday season. We hope to see you at the Phoenix Club on December 2 nd. Sincerely, Larry Stumpf Co-President P.S. It is that time of year dues are due. Nov 5, 2017 GR XMAS page 3 of 12
