WHAT A TREAT!!

We all really enjoyed the beautiful singing voices and Christmas Luncheon entertainment by "The Take-Note Singers". This group of Memphis ladies are very talented. We were invited to sing along and get into the Christmas spirit. Great fun!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL!

CHRISTMAS LUNCHEON

Gretchen Reeves and her social committee did a wonderful job with the Garden Club Christmas Luncheon that was held at the home of GaNelle Ballard.





Everyone enjoyed being together to visit before lunch was served.

Great bartending, girls.

The food was delicious!

TIS THE SEASON TO DECORATE

What talented Christmas decorators we have in our Garden Club! Hope you enjoy these photos of the beautiful holiday work that has been done this year. Thank you to all of the ladies that participated in making our neighborhood an even more delightful place to live.

DECORATING THE GATES AND CLUBHOUSE

The SGC Christmas elves have been very busy lately preparing for the holidays. What a beautiful job they did on the front and back gate entrances to our neighborhood and also to the Southwind Clubhouse.

"My team can beat your team."

"Fluffing" garland for the back gate.

Making the front doors of the Clubhouse look festive.

The ribbon is absolutely a must when decorating for the holidays!
