THE West Vancouver Chamber of Commerce Christmas
dinner is always an elegant affair. Held on Dec. 11 at the Capilano
Golf and Country Club, members get the chance to dress-up and socialize
over cocktails beforehand, then
it's
time
for
the four-star
buffet which always includes succulent seafood, exotic pate, freshly
carved beef and fabulous desserts. This year, a balloon raffle and
a rousing game of "head and tails" ensured that no one went
home empty handed. A special visit from Santa (aka Peter Black), always
brings
smiles as he roasts all who have been naughty and nice. Merry Christmas
everyone and a very Happy New Year. |
