Santa Steals the Show at the Little Big Holiday Party

Guests at the 2nd Annual Little Big Christmas Party feasted on an array of delicious food.


Cliff the Magic Man entertained during the social hour. The live band Fine Line played music to please all tastes along with some tunes for happy feet too.




Santa spread Christmas cheer to each table and handed out gifts to some good boys and girls.



It may have been the holiday cheer .... an acknowlegment of "I believe, I believe"






Little groups celebrated together to make it a festive evening enjoyed by all.

Thanksgiving Jazz






The jazz on the weekend of Thanksgiving was great!! We had a large turn out with many of the Jazz Camp people arriving to stay the weekend.. Prudence Johnson was just what her bio and the advertising said about her. Prudence, Kim Richmond and his band kept the audience enthralled. Lee Tomboulian's wife Betty even got involved singing and added her little quips!
Chuck Hedge's daughters and their families were here to help celebrate the weekend too. All in all, it was a wonderful weekend full of memories.
