Christmas Parties Kick-off

The Episcopal Church Home is blessed to have an active volunteer Woman’s Board. The ladies

are incredible with various talents that they share with us through the year. One of the most

special gifts they provide is our kick-off Christmas parties for the season. Over the years the

parties have grown so much that we have to divide our community in half and do two parties

back to back.

The first party is Thursday, December 3rd from 3:30 PM to 4:30 PM in Gheens Towne Hall

for Woodcock, Clingman and West Neighborhoods featuring Rascals of Ragtyme Band.

The second party is Friday, December 4th from 3:30 PM to 4:30 PM in Gheens Towne Hall

for Morton, Marmion and Reed Neighborhoods featuring Bob Holt and Prime Time Band.

The Woman’s Board provide homemade cookies and tea sandwiches for each party and we offer

ice cream punch and egg nog with and without bourbon. Santa will join the each party and get

pictures with all the residents. Everyone is invited, so join us for a festive Christmas kick-off.
