The highlight of the afternoon was the Washer Toss Tournament, where organizer George and his partner Ove defended last year's championship. Alas, it was not to be! While they were in the final, our newest Rotarian-to-be, Chris Fierella and his wife Alex took home all the hardware. 
Chris here displays his winning form. Other highlights of the serious opening round show Rotarians showing no mercy on their opponents.
Some enjoyed the evening more that others.
The big win was for the weekly 50-50, this week worth over $300. Looking fo the Queen of Spades, that is exactly what she drew, ending weeks of unsuccessful drawings. If that were not enough, she won a bonus draw that Patricia orchestrated to aid her next trip to South Africa. Where there are winners, there is usually losers. 
In this department, Sandy failed to draw the Ace of Spades in the new 50-50 weekly draw and Mariah was faced with pizza which is not on her diet.
This years party was held at St. Annes Hall, on a cold and blustery night. The highlight of the evening was the meal prepared by all members. This photo shows what remains of the buffet table after members went through the line. 
Eating wasn't the only thing going on during the evening though! During the week, Pam indicated that a new Rotarian from Moncton was collecting good used purses which she was going to fill with soap, shampoo, a tooth brush, toothpaste and other lady items for distribution to needy women in Moncton. 
As can be seen by the picture, members stepped up and donated over 20 purses, which Pam planned to deliver to Moncton the next day. Continuing the Christmas spirit, members open up their wallets to support the Rotary Club of Port Elgin in it's Christmas basket, the proceeds of which went to support the Imagination Library in Port Elgin. The basket was lovely and as can be seen from the list of contents, very full with much needed items. 
The evening was capped off with Santa's Elf (Patricia) distributing chocolate goodies to each table. It was a great start to the Holiday season.

In the parking lot, Wayne discusses the state of the world's tensions while waiting to board his wagon. 
Sandy can be seen talking to the driver and Bill can be seen cuddling up to Dianne.
Once everyone was inside the building, the horses turned around for the journey home later on.
Following the meal, some members went outside to enjoy fellowship around a roaring fire. 
Still others stayed inside and played Left, Right & Center. Josh and Stacey were the big winners.
Here Dale and Darrell are at the back of the line for their wagon. By all accounts we all had a good time, the food was great and the fellowship even better. 
Friday, her first day of the visit, she visited the 676-year-old Coventry Cathedral. These images represent the only part of the Cathedral not bombed in WWII
The main historical fact is a stage where William Shakespeare performed 7 times. Pam is standing in front of that stage with the Lord Mayor of Coventry.
Pam is seen with Club President Ian Reid.
