EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The River Lodge and Monday Club held a total of 19 events in the month of November.
There were eight regularly scheduled meetings between the two facilities. Senior Jam/ Open Mic returned to the Monday Club after a very long break. It is encouraging to see them back.
The Redwood Memorial Foundation held their Annual Gala in November. The event was well attended. Mint Juleps were enjoyed by the guests dressed in their finest attire.
The River Lodge Annual Craft Faire took place the weekend before Thanksgiving. There was a huge turnout and the vendors were pleased with sales. Staff are thinking of ways to make the Craft Faire even bigger next year.
Parks workers put up Christmas Lights at River Lodge and removed many of the cobwebs from the exterior of the building. Their help is always much appreciated.
Staff continue to attend the online Tyler Technology trainings to place the City’s facilities on an electronic platform for rentals.
