When you
think of a "Winter Social", images come to mind of lovely
ladies, handsome men, fancy cars, couple's dancing. Christmas
carolers, and lots of food. That is exactly the scene on
December 7th, 2006 at the Dalton Trade Center as individuals,
families, home providers, staff, and community members celebrated
the season.
Tony Burress,
who won a free limousine ride from the Carpet Capital Limousine
service during one of his volunteer efforts invited his friends to
join him in the drive to the Winter Social. Cameras were
flashing as the group exited the limousine, creating a
celebrity-like atmosphere. Once inside, they joined other
lovely ladies and handsome men who were circling the dance floor to
music presented by our D.J. for the night, Chase O'Neal.
The Cross
Plains All Stars, (Tony Burress, Ricky Dwight, Jimmy Crisp, Rob
Cannon, Billy Morrison, Adam Horner, Janice Langford, Sean Sneary,
Eddie Scott, and Jennifer Elswick), under the direction of Ms. Laura
Strange, Music Instructor, presented a program of traditional
holiday music. with a view of the mounts, a back drop of
brightly decorated trees, music in the air, and good food and
friends, the "Winter Social" could also be described as...
"A
Magical Night on the Mountain!"
