Our MC for the occasion was Marlene Forrest. The arrival music was played by Barbara McNab and this put us all in the mood for our Christmas Party festivities.Bob Powell played for us 'South of the Border', 'Ï Know Why and So Do You', 'That's Amore', and 'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas'. Denise Gunson followed with 'It Had to be You', 'The Shadow of Your Smile', 'Bring Me Home', 'I'll be Home for Christmas' and by special request (Thank you Marlene) 'Silent Night'. Roy Steen was next with 'Stars and Stripes Forever', 'Sleigh Ride', 'That Old Feeling', and 'Just Öne of those Things'. Thank you all.
Our Christmas Raffles were drawn and a sumptuous afternoon tea followed. Our thanks go to Barbara McNab for the party food and to all our members for their donations to the many hampers.
Guest artiste Chris Larking (Clavinova) was then joined by Dave Hallam (keyboard) for the second half of our program. Lots of fine Christmas music including 'Santa Claus Is Coming to Town' (duet), 'Te Harinui' (DH), 'Let It Snow' (duet), 'Í Love the Piano' (DH), 'Silver Bells' (CL), 'Ó Holy Night' (duet)'.
