The annual HCC Christmas Party was held on December 15th in the Heights at St. Andrews Episcopal Church, 1819 Heights Blvd, Houston.

 

The Club provided turkey & ham, soft drinks, ice, plates and cutlery. Members contributed their own dishes, from appetizers to side dishes, desserts and wine.

And here is a video of the sumptuous food table, from the appetizers and main courses down to the desserts, and also the line of members waiting to get at it:

Commodore Honey Leveen served as master of ceremonies.

Harmon Everett put together an amazing slideshow of two thousand, yes, that's right, 2,000 photos, which are all the photos from 2018 trips.

Frank Ohrt led a tribute and toast to the four members whom we have lost this year: Martha Hulsebosch, Dave Kitson, Marilyn Peery and Bill Grimes.

A big thanks to those members who arrived early to decorate tables and set up the food, to those who contributed delicious food to share, and for those who stayed late to put things away and clean up.

 

Special mention goes to Liz Dennis & Frank Ohrt. They procured the wonderful facility for us, and watched over the details before, during and after the party. They arrived before the rest of the volunteers and were the last to leave.  And they kept the coffee brewing!
