our 2011Annual Dinner on March 19th at the Mile Square Park
Banquet Center. The room had ample room for the chapter display
tables on one side and the Silent Auction tables. Everyone enjoyed
the social hour before dinner with the no-host bar and the opportunity
to look at the displays and make the rounds at the Silent Auction
tables where a large number of interesting items were so artfully
laid out by Cheryl Thomas. Gretchen McCausland’s beautiful
floral centerpieces graced each table, making the room look
inviting and festive |
