After Holiday Party


We know that everyone is extremely busy during the holiday season, so we opted to have our holiday party after the rush is over.  That way everyone will be done shopping and/or returning gifts, and need a little relaxation from all the craziness. This year’s holiday party will be held Saturday, January 7, 2012.  It may put a dent in your resolution to lose weight during 2012 but will be worth delaying your diet plans for a few more days. Looking forward to starting off the new year with old friends.  But remember that you can work it off dancing. There will be a DJ for dancing.

  **There will be NO SMOKING in the entire building because of the party**

Date:                     Saturday, January 7, 2012
Time:                     6:00PM-10:00PM
Location:               Waldorf Social Club
Cost:                      $16 Members

If you’re interested please call Peggy Czarnecki, 570-341-2249.  DEADLINE: 12/29/2011  NO EXCEPTIONS.  DON'T BE LEFT OUT IN THE COLD.  Payment required at the time of the reservation.

 


Club Happenings:

Many thanks to Jan and Don Herr for hosting our annual Road Rally in memory of Ray Balcerzak,and also Joe Condon, Don Herr and Leo Brunori who charted out the course for the rally.  The course was tough, with 96 clues to find, and some people getting VERY lost. 

The winners were:

1st place - Sue Heller and Ron Hazlett
(also won 1st last year),

2nd place - Ed Pietlukiewicz and Karen,

3rd place - Shari Miller and Jerry McFadden. 

Thanks to those who came out for the event and for those who didn't - you missed a great day. 
The last of the summer Happy Hours was held on August 19, 2011 at the Waldorf Club - about 20 members turned out after a heavy rain storm. 

Thanks again to Shari Miller for putting together the 3 summer Happy Hours.


 

Meetings are held at
