Supper Club's St. Patrick's Day Celebration
March 18, 2006

St. Patrick's Day was the theme of the Saturday-night Supper Club's inaugural meal and entertainment on March 18, 2006, in Stewart Hall at First Presbyterian Church.  This new church social activity proved to be very popular with over 100 people in attendance.
Jack Wilson Jack Wilson welcomed everyone to the first Supper Club dinner and entertained us with Irish jokes.
A traditional Irish dinner of corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, and carrots, was enjoyed by all, with plenty of food available for second helpings. 
Church members also enjoyed assorted cakes, green punch, coffee, and tea, along with visiting with each other and getting to know each other better.
Many of the people attending wore green in celebration of St. Patrick's Day.  A green hat and a Blarney Stone were on each table.
The words to several traditional Irish songs printed on green paper were available for all in attendance.
David Lincoln David Lincoln played the piano . . .
Georgia Hamilton And Georgia Hamilton led us all in singing Irish songs such as "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling," "My Wild Irish Rose," "Danny Boy," and George M. Cohan's "Harrigan."
Mike Zenisek and others helped with the cleanup.
Nancy Purcell and David A Lincoln After supper, everyone went to the Sanctuary to listen to several pieces sung by soprano Nancy Purcell, accompanied by David A. Lincoln on the piano and organ.

 

Our thanks to Bob Stevens for the photos and to the Supper Club Committee, Sandy and Harold Crittenden, Ann Herndon, Rev. Jerry Landrey, Marlene and Paul Luhrsen, Naomi and Sam Mallory, Marge and Bob Stevens, and Jack Wilson, for a delightful evening!
