I want to thank all those members, and plus 1’s, who came out to Philippe Park on Sunday (December 7, 2025) to join in the food, fellowship, and fun for our 2025 Annual Awards and Holiday Party!
As usual, the food was amazing and yummy! And even though it rained most of the time we were there, Pavilion #8 did a great job of keeping us and the food dry!
We had a wonderful surprise visitor, Victoria Drum, our Secretary, who lives in Texas, drove to Florida to join in the fun of our annual party! We love you, Vic!
Lynn played two songs she created, “Christmas in Florida” and “TBCC 2025”. Jim has added the tracks to the highlight video he has made of the party. (see below)
We had a great turnout for our “Story Display” exhibit; the stories were educational, inspirational, and funny!
We changed things up a bit with our free raffle this year as we gave away four $50 B&H Gift Cards, 8 poinsettias, a camera bag, and 2 embroidered Christmas towels (donated by Sue Harvey)!
Richard Edwards won our 50/50 Raffle and graciously donated his winnings to CWE, the organization that puts on the golf tournament fundraiser for medical missions to South America and Africa, for which 14 TBCC members worked as photography volunteers back in November.
Thank you to the Board of Directors, plus Lorrie Maniscalco and Lourdes Fusco, for putting the party all together and cleaning up in record time!
