Our wonderful, annual Christmas Social. Linda B. graciously opened her home to Alpha Zeta.
President, Sara E.(left), and hostess, Linda B.(right), welcomed all the sisters to the social. It was a beautiful, festive occasion full of good cheer!
Thought for the Day, presented by Billie S. She had everyone laughing as she told about her childhood experience of having to sing some rather indelicate lyrics found in a Christmas Carol.
Jennifer's Project: Toys for Tots
For several years, our charitable project for December has been Toys for Tots. This began with then-new member, Jennifer Beavers, whose son was serving in the U.S. Marines. -- The project was popular with Alpha Zeta, but became even more meaningful to all of us this year, when Jennifer lost her battle with cancer. -- Jennifer's husband was on hand to collect the toys, and said that he would continue to do so as long as he was able. -- Many sisters spoke with fondness about remembering Jennifer at last year's Christmas social.
Music, good food, and fellowship... just the things to put everyone in the Christmas spirit!
Merry Christmas, Alpha Zeta!!
Coming soon...
Our next meeting is on February 3, 2018, at Rain, a restaurant in Abingdon, VA. Our project is Abuse Alternatives, whose main need is for gift cards of all sorts: groceries, clothing, gas, personal care items.
