Thanks to all who attended, hosted tables, or made donations to the Tips for Charity Luncheon on Friday December 8. We had a good turn-out and a good time again this year. The folks at Westbrook-Warren Church do a great job organizing and executing food and beverage for two seatings totaling well over 200 people. Ray Richardson hosted and Doc Stockwell was back at the piano this year making it even more festive.

Now that the Festival is over, we expect there will be an announcement soon about money raised. Charities benefiting again this year are the Westbrook Food Pantry and the Good Samaritan Fuel Fund.
