The sounds of Christmas Carols filled the air as the Tanglewood School Choir sang holiday songs at the December meeting of the Whiskey Creek Ladies’ Club. The members were enchanted by the program under the able direction of Jonathan Lawrence, the school’s choir master. The meeting was held at the Whiskey Creek CC. The tables were decorated by Cathy Trent in a Christmas theme. 33 members and four guests were greeted by Lona Leugers. President Mo Poirier opened the meeting with a flag salute and a welcome. Ellie Neal read the inspirational message, “Life is a Rollercoaster.” In February, a Nominating Committee will be formed to prepare a slate of officers to present at the March meeting and then hold elections in April. Anyone interested in serving on this committee, should contact the president. She reminded that name badges must be worn at meetings to avoid a $1 fine. She also announced that the cost of lunch is $24. Members are asked to pay by check or exact cash. Check is preferred. President Poirier encouraged members to invite friends to join us as guests to attend a meeting and lunch and possibly join the ladies’ club.

Pam Lucas reported that the book club’s next selection was The Villa by Rachel Hawkins on Dec. 19. The WCLC Book Club meets the third Thursday of each month at 10:30 a.m. There is a book discussion and lunch. New members are welcomed. Next month’s meeting is Jan. 2. The program is Ding Darling.
