THE PREPARATION

(Page 1)


On November 16th, over 100 people attended NEV’s biennial black tie Fall Formal event which took place at the Ridder Country Club in Whitman. The men looked dashing in their tuxedos, and the women were stunning in their dresses. 

 The planning of this event started back in July.  A committee consisting of 10 residents, along with Ginger Comeau and Deb Quelle, planned every aspect of this night including creating the beautiful centerpieces for each table. Committee members included Beth Bradshaw, Bobby Poth, Rita Limauro, Heidi Ward, Mary Bastian, Jessica Simoes, Allan Feldman, Michael Hackmeyer, Peter Burden and Donna Burke.

 Although the evening proved to be a chilly one, the two fireplaces in the function room cast a warm glow throughout the night.  Dinner was a choice of baked scrod or glazed grilled chicken served with rice pilaf and mixed vegetables.  Dessert was a fall favorite – apple crisp with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. 

 The dance floor was crowded all night and Guest DJ Dave Becker kept the music upbeat and even threw in a few tunes on his saxophone.  The group was also serenaded by NEV’s own Kenny Delmonte who sang “Close to You” by Karen Carpenter.  Great job Kenny!

Looking forward to doing in again in 2009!
