These Are a Few of Our Favorite Things

Wednesday, December 27, 2023 @ 11:15 am - 1:00 pm

PROGRAM

Our members-only holiday luncheon will include a show-and-tell. Plan to bring a favorite item from your home. It could be anything from your grandmother’s serving dish to a piece of artwork created by your child at age six. Perhaps you wish to reveal something that you either purchased on a trip or it was a cherished gift from a friend.

Be prepared to share what makes this piece so special to you or holds wonderful memories. It will allow all of us to make personal connections with our fellow members.

We’ll draw names and listen and learn as each person takes their turn telling about their unique-to-them object.

After everyone has shared their stories, we may have time for a second round. So bring two items if you wish.
