Annual DSACK Christmas Party

Ho!Ho!Ho!  What a merry holiday party we had!!!

DSACK once again held our annual holiday party at Trinity Hill United Methodist Church.  This year we had the entire meal catered by Bons Temps Catering and it was absolutely delicious! So many of our families commented on how much more enjoyable the event was since they didn’t have to prepare or bring food this year.  Thank you Bons Temps for making this possible and making our party evenmore inviting.

We had record attendance with over 90 people!  Many of our board members were present including Belva Collins, Samantha Matthews, Brooke Reed, Michelle Gilliam, Courtney Elbert, Malkanthie McCormick, and Traci Brewer.  Of course, we had a visit from Santa, which is always the highlight of the day!  Thanks, Santa, for taking time out of your busy schedule to visit with us!  We know many, many children (and parents) went home happy because of seeing you! Thank you, Mary Mandl, for asking Santa if he could stop by during his hectic schedule!

DSACK would especially like to thank Sam Matthews and Stephen Greene who provided the children’s activities. They went to A LOT of effort and the children had A LOT of fun!  There were gingerbread houses and gingerbread cookies to decorate, clever coloring books and crafts, cookies to take home, and a fabulous Velcro gingerbread activity book that Sam created for each of the children to take home.

Many people contributed to the success of this year’s Annual Christmas Party. This truly is a collaborative effort, and we appreciate everyone’s help. Because this is one of our biggest events every year, we have outgrown our space at Trinity Hill.  If you know of any facility that would let us host our party on their site, please contact DSACK at 859-494-7809.  We need to reserve a place right away for next year.  Maybe your church or workplace has a place we could use?  We look forward to seeing all of you in Dec. 2010.
