We rang in the New Year with the Creek Big Band at a sold-out event—and everyone had a ball! Dominoes supplied pizza, Richard Corbet baked his famous carrot cake, and Yvette and Gordon Fleming shared their wedding anniversary cake with everyone. At 9:00 pm, guests raised a glass of bubbly as we welcomed the New Year alongside Toronto.
Congratulations to our door prize winners, Michael Nortch, Unni Claridge, and Alan Barnes. The winner of the 50/50 draw was Bill Foyle, who took home $132.
Jay would like to extend heartfelt thanks to the dance committee for their dedication and support throughout the year: Ann Matthewson, Krystyna Wisniewska, Joy Germaine, Andre Casaubon, and Heather Himmel. She would also like to thank the many volunteers—beyond the dance committee—who help with decorating, set-up, ensuring the evening runs smoothly, and cleaning up afterward: Ron, John, Brent, Mike, Ruth, Louise, Cathy, Cheryl, Gill, Mark, Amanda, and Collene. Without these dedicated volunteers, there would be no dances.
