OWLS Christmas Party
Thurs., Dec. 5, Noon. The OWLS will gather for their Annual Holiday Luncheon in Fellowship Hall. Again this year, Georgetti’s Market and Catering in Cinnaminson will be supplying the main course of baked ham, scalloped potatoes, green beans with garlic/oil, Caesar salad, and bread & butter. Appetizers, desserts, and the famous punches will be supplied by the committee. A charge of $10 per person will be collected at the door. Happily, Pat Hall will again provide piano accompaniment for our singing of traditional Christmas carols. As always, a collection will be taken for two or three charities to be selected during the luncheon. Please sign-up on the attendance sheets pinned to the bulletin board to help the committee determine the number of dinners to be ordered. For more info, see Sue Kuhn.
