Joys of the Christmas Season

Our staff is always looking forward to the week before Christmas as our Assessor Betty Keebler prepares a wonderful breakfast for us with out of this world oatmeal pudding and quiche. Thanks, Betty!

 

Getting into the Christmas Spirit

After a year of absence, the Alpine Fire Fighters Association held their Annual Christmas Breakfast with Santa.  The event, held at Kenowa Middle School on Hendershot Ave., was well attended and both adults and kids had a great time. The Association wishes to thank all those who contributed to the success of the program.

And while Santa was attending to the children, members of the Comstock Park Rotary gathered at the Alpine Township Hall to pick up and distribute gifts on behalf of Santa Girls to families local families in need. 

 

Holiday Breakfast at Pine Island School

Pine Island School hosted a holiday breakfast Saturday morning,  Pine Island School is the home of third through fifth grade students in the Comstock Park Public School System.  In addition to the breakfast, there was a silent auction, arts and crafts, story time, dance rehearsals, book fair, and other activities benefitting various Comstock Park School functions.

 

Santa Arrives by Reindeer at Fruitbasket Flowerland

If there was any place in the Towship today that hinted the Christmas season is near, it would have been at Fruitbasket Flowerland where Santa was spotted, reindeer and all. Kids enjoyed not only meeting Santa and a few of the reindeer but were able to make their own reindeer food that they can can scatter over their lawn Christmas eve to attract the reindeer to their home.  Some took the opportunity to decorate Christmas cards.

Christmas in July

These young ladies were discovered at the pavillion at Dwight Lydell Park (located on the edge of Alpine Township) celebrating Christmas. All are members of the Red Hat Club, most from the North side of the county, and many worked together at GM at one time. The reason for celebrating Christmas as a group in July is because so many of their members are not available in December.

Coming from all walks of life, members share a bond of affection, forged by common life experiences and a genuine enthusiasm for wherever life takes them next. Whether donning their signature purple and red outfits, or lavender and pink for their younger sisters under 50, they embrace their growing friendships with gusto and grace

Members brought gifts and a dish to pass, as well as lots of good will and cheer.

Members of the Red Hat Club have social as well as benevolent events.

Lucy Pollitt, who is also an active member of the VFW Post 830 wanted to make sure to pass along the upcoming picnic this Saturday July 25th at the Veterans Facility and extend an invitation to everybody.
