We had the pleasure of attending the yearly celebration at the Grassroots Community center.

Teaching the young. Always a good thing!

OK, breaks were plentiful – talkinng with friends and neighbors.

Decorations abounded

As the guests started arriving volunteers shifted from  preparation to serving.

Christmas decorations, good cheer and helpful hands were all in abundance!

Now Santa may have an army of elfs but they have nothing on the volunteers from Joe’s Kirk, Cope, Yuma and Burlington!

Teaching the young. Always a good thing!

One other thing was in abundance was the friendship of old and new friends!

Thank you to all of the voulenteers! The lunch was lasagna, green beans, Garlic bread and salad. The service was as impeccable as the food itself.

Guess what else? Well, men and cards and time to kill…

All in all a wonderful time was had by all… At least I enjoyed it! I hope they ask me again next year!

Merry Christmas

and

Friendship to all!!
