 Crofton Village Garden Club members and guests gathered today at Walden Country Club for our annual Holiday Luncheon, enjoying a pleasant afternoon of conversation, camaraderie, and seasonal cheer. This year’s table arrangements were created by hostesses Patty More (lead), Angela DeLuca, Cindy Hare, Shirley Levendoski, Sally Moore, and Rena Pogue. The group designed charming centerpieces featuring hat boxes filled with holiday greens and accented with a fascinator, ornament, and plaid bow. Their creativity added a festive touch to the room. As part of the celebration, each centerpiece was given to a member at its table, providing a thoughtful keepsake to take home. An additional highlight of the luncheon was a presentation by First Vice President Diane Smith, who displayed her White House Christmas Ornament collection and offered a brief history of this cherished tradition. The White House Christmas Ornament series, created by the White House Historical Association, began in 1981. Each annual ornament honors a different U.S. president or a significant moment in White House history, with designs inspired by period architecture, artwork, or celebrations held during that presidency. Diane’s display provided a lovely glimpse into this meaningful tradition and was enjoyed by all. We are pleased to welcome Catherine Reardon as a member of the Garden Club. She was installed by Second Vice President Rena Pogue and was sponsored by Yael Beckman. Catherine recently retired and joins the club with an interest in gardening and community activities.  Yael Beckman, Catherine Reardon, and Second Vice President Rena Pogue Comments are closed.
