ANNUAL HOLIDAY POTLUCK MEETING
December 14th, from Noon to 2 PM
Our annual Holiday Pot Luck will be held on Sunday, December 11th, our usual meeting date. The start time is noon. We will be in the auditorium.

We will start set-up at 10:00 AM. Anyone with a flair for decorating or arms to help with table and chair set up is encouraged to come early. We have 2 volunteers to bring juniper for the tables, and Phyllis has volunteered for the centerpieces.

The Club will provide prime rib and ham and paper plates, cups, and plastic utensils. Coffee and tea will be available. You may bring your own drink if you want something else.

Carol Causey is managing the kitchen. Check with Carol when you bring your covered dish for 8-­‐12 people. It can be a salad, side hot or cold dish or dessert. Don’t forget a serving utensil. Please bring your food already heated or chilled, by 11:30 (11:45 at the latest for hot food). There really isn’t time or the capacity to heat things up. The kitchen has one oven, one microwave, and a medium size refrigerator.  Carol asks that kitchen helpers arrive by 11:00am.

Please also bring your 2016 “Annual Plant”, Mammilaria zeilmanniana which you received last December. Gary Duke will judge this year’s plants and invite everyone to pick up an “Annual Plant” for the 2017 contest. It will be fun to see how they did – dead or alive.

The Mini-Show winners will be announced and prize plants will be awarded to the people with the highest point totals. We will award to the highest 4 point total in each category.
Thanks to all who participated in this interesting and educational activity.

After we adjourn, please pitch in and help clean up. We expect to adjourn around 2:00 pm.
