On Dec. 10 the Happy Tails Dog Club held a holiday party at Donna Steibel’s lovely home. With 35 members bringing appetizers and desserts, there was lots of delicious food, plenty of good cheer, and lots of companionship and conversations. After partaking in lunch, a white “dog” gift exchange was held, with a couple gifts highly sought after and snatched away the maximum of exchange times! Nancy Kilkenney had her gifts taken from her several times, but she, along with everyone else who participated, had plenty of fun and ended up with some nice gifts. Many thanks to Donna Steibel for hosting and to Kimberly Grasser and Lorraine Wilson for their help in getting things set up and cleaning up afterwards.
