GHO Christmas Party - Nov. 25

Ray and Terri Kitowski were the gracious hosts of the 2007 GHO Christmas party. Club members kicked off the holiday season in style with far too much yummy food on our plates, a fun gift exchange, and kids of all ages running around wearing big smiles.

As always, a major highlight of the party was the presentation of the prestigious GHO GHO GHO awards, handled with appropriate dignity and panache by Dr. Jim Waddington. And the envelope, please...
