The tradition has been going on for 25 years and Monday's crowd had 47 ladies with 14 helpers assisting them. Live music was provided by Marvin Dunlap and David Powell and attendees got to visit with Father Christmas for a bit as he made a surprise visit. Numerous dishes of foods and desserts lined the tables and each guest received a Christmas gift.
