Encore Club celebrates with Christmas luncheon and 2017 donations

FALLBROOK – A Country Christmas was the theme for the Fallbrook Encore Club's holiday luncheon held at The Golf Club of California. The festive table decorations reflected a country motif, and one lucky guest at each table took that table's decorations home. Many guests wore their best western attire adding color and fun to the party.

After the delicious buffet was enjoyed by all, master of ceremonies Trudy Cunningham introduced this year's entertainment, The Fallbrook Sassy Ladies, a local line dancing group led by Bobbi Bixby and Patty Lucas. The dancers wore bells on their wrists and Christmas decorations on their cowgirl hats while demonstrating their line dancing expertise to Christmas music. Members of the audience joined the dancers for the last dance, "The Electric Slide."

Kathy Bogel brought the party to a close with a wonderful game, and many gifts were handed out.

For the fifth year, Encore Club members generously donated more than $500 in gift cards and toys to military children in need at Camp Pendleton. The children, under their parent's guidance, were able to pick two or more gifts at Santa's Workshop held at Camp Pendleton Armed Services YMCA.

Prospective members are welcome to attend the monthly meeting held on the first Tuesday of the month at the United Methodist Church, 1833 Winterhaven, in Fallbrook. Ahead of the meeting, coffee and refreshments are served, and the meeting begins at 9:30 a.m. Sign-up opportunities for any of the many social activities are available at these meetings, as well as hearing from interesting local speakers.
