Many thanks to the Merkner's for opening up their magnificent new home to forty GCC members for our annual holiday party. The three hundred or so of you who did not show up missed a real feast and a mighty good time.
After the feed, the highlight of the evening was the gift exchange, where the grand prize fought long and hard over was a large, purple, lobster. The crustacean was stolen innumerable times before finally going home to match the new color decor of Joanne Cochran's living room.
In a tight contest, Nancy Groome took home the prize for best dish, winning a flip of the coin with the Lee's. Make plans now to attend the party next year!
