The first oyster roast at the Travelites' Valentines celebration was
fun with a capital "F". People arrived from not only the Midlands of SC
but also from NC and GA. The weather was great for the Oyster Roast
with scrumptious oyster singles that were fantastic. Each batch of the
bushel was consumed in short order.
.
The rest of the dinner included chicken marsala, clam & chicken
chowder, a wonderful salad fully loaded, pasta Alfredo, garlic bread,
and variety of desserts including brownies, cakes, cupcakes, and ice
cream.
.
Champage was poured for a toast and sparkling grape juice was available for those who preferred it.
.
During the event, several brought out guitars and serenated us in good
voice and talent. A photo of this has been posted to Cheris-Travelites
on Yahoo (https://groups.yahoo.com/group/cheris-travelites) where only
actual club members are able to view. The Album in the Photos section
is named "2011 Club Events." Those in attendance were given small
plush valentine elephants and mice as souvenirs.
.
Our next scheduled event is our Mardi Gras party on February 26th in
Camden. Please let us know what you'll be bringing for the Cajun
potluck supper when you RSVP. A variety of Beads and masks will be
available to celebrate with.
.
The following fun will be found at Travelites' annual St. Pat's party
in Leesville. The club supplies the corned beef. Others are asked to
bring sides or desserts.
