December 2010 Holiday Party
The fly tree and the gift table.
What a great Holiday Party we had! We owe a hearty thanks to the father-son tag team Lee and Greg Evans for the lion’s share of setting it up and making certain that things were in place. Thanks also to Dennis Cook for the last minute fly tree replacement, Bryon Fessler for the email notices that went out and Paul and Beverly Wehr for tending the door.
Thanks also to all of our friends who made this a fun event. The fly contributions were generous. At one count, there were 143 flies on the tree. They were a lot easier to retrieve than from the willows along the Poudre. The White Elephant gifts opened in "Chinese Gift Exhange" fashion provided lots of excitement and we hope only some temporary animosity. The person who took home the famous fish lamp is a very happy person.
