CRESAPTOWN #2883 Auxiliary News
We held a ham dinner on Sunday, December 5th, with all proceeds for the benefit of President Marianna Woolard’s projects, St. Judes Hospital and Ronald McDonald Houses in Morgantown and Baltimore. We earned $1,670.07 for serving over 130 meals. Marianna and Kitchen Chairman Kathy Hare thank the following volunteers for their help in making this gift possible: Debbie Buchanan, Dora Jean Buchanan, Kelly Cordial, Patty Grove, Tina Hill, Shirley Kane, Tanya Kessell, Cathy McKenzie, Jody Montana, Janet Nicol, Maryon Phillips, Debbie Powell and Amy Sites.
We held our Annual Auxiliary Christmas Dinner on Monday, December 6th, at Puccini’s Italian Restaurant with 28 Sisters attending. Following a delicious array of appetizers and a meal of lasagna, gifts were exchanged among Officers and members present. Debbie Powell provided “surprise packages” for each attendee, which met with a lot of laughs and enjoyment as the contents were revealed. We held a ritualistic opening and brief meeting to handle necessary Auxiliary business and reports. It was a great evening of Eagle fellowship.
The adult Aerie Christmas dinner and auction was held on Saturday, December 11th. The proceeds from the auction and ticket sales was for the benefit of the Interfaith Food Pantry. A check was presented after the Pantry Christmas luncheon at the Aerie Home on Thursday, December 16th, in the amount of $1,400. Present were: Aerie Trustee Jeff Hare, Dave Shoemake, Auxiliary President Marianna Woolard, Auxiliary members Sandy Baier, Kelly Cordial, Kathy Hare, and Shirley Kane. Receiving the check was Pastor Patrick Burhman, Pantry Chairperson.
A bake sale, including trays of home baked cookies and a fudge raffle, was held
at the End-of-Month drawing, with proceeds going to our fund for all charities.
Chairman Debbie Buchanan thanks everyone who donated items and those who purchased any of the goodies and raffle tickets. She will submit her report on money raised at our regular meeting on Tuesday, January 11, 2022.
There will be a New Year’s celebration held by the Aerie at the Home on McMullen Highway on Friday, December 31st. The Chinese Bandits will play from 9 PM to 1 AM and there will be a champagne toast and buffet at midnight.. The cost is $30 per person and there will be no reserved seating. Call Kathy at 301-268-9640 for further information.
Both the Aerie and Auxiliary have forwarded cash love gifts to the Purchase Aerie in Mayfield, Kentucky to help them aid the needy during this tragic time of loss and devastation. This is another opportunity to show that we are an organization of “People Helping People.”
The New Years 2022 party was a huge success. Despite the rising cases of Covid approx. 75 cautious party goers came out and enjoyed a fun filled evening listening and dancing to the fantastic music provided by one of the areas most popular bands, the Chinese Bandits. The tables were beautifully decorated with black and gold tablecloths complemented with New Years centerpieces. Before Midnight, party favors and champagne glasses were passed out to everyone to toast and celebrate the New Year. Following the singing of Auld Lang Syne, a Midnight buffet was served, consisting of traditional Pork n Sauerkraut, Mashed Potatoes, Gravy and Green beans, coleslaw and assorted cake for dessert. It was magical evening to remember, enjoyed by all.
Thanks to all those who helped make it happen. Kathy Hare, Maryon Phillips, Marianna Woolard, Tanya Kessell, Cathy Mckenzie, Dora Jean Buchanan and Ci Ci Foot. Eddie Morris, Pete Handley , Jeff Hare, and Randy Zambinini. Also, a special thanks to Bruce Foot for keeping those Champagne corks popping to help get everyone's glass filled before Midnight.
