2007 HOLIDAY PARTY AND CHRISTMAS COOKIE EXCHANGE
“Oh, the weather outside is frightful, but the fire is so delightful...” These were the thoughts of approximately 23 CHRS members, family, and friends who braved the snow/rain/sleet to attend the 2007 CHRS Holiday Party and Cookie Exchange at Cedar Ridge Lodge on Saturday, December 15th. It was a fantastic event! Activities included eating a meal together, visiting and sharing stories around the glow and warmth of a fireplace, auctioning of a beautiful afghan and set of chocolate "12 days of Christmas" ornaments (both created and donated by Cindy Derosier), and the annual exchange of cookies/desserts. The highlight of the evening was a power point presentation of CHRS members’ bunnies (and two very special guinea pigs:) put together and presented by nature lover and naturalist, Kim Banks. One could feel the pride and love of each “parent” as pictures of loved ones flashed on the screen. Sad moments were also shared as some pictures shown were in memory of bunnies now living at Rainbow Bridge. Overall, it was a great presentation and a great evening! Thank you to Kim Banks, who also reserved and decorated Cedar Ridge Lodge for this occasion, Cindy Derosier for her generous donations, Terri and Jeremy Cook for providing technical support for the power point presentation, and the members who shared their lovely pictures. It was well worth braving the elements to attend this fun-filled event.
