Fondue Party at Bonita Bay Club, Bonita Springs
Best wishes for a very happy and prosperous 2012 to all our 60 members and guests who attended our New Year’s Gala evening at the Shadow Wood Country Club. To bring some change to our traditional outing on the Yacht, Dori Moser, our board member, organized this delightful evening in this beautiful setting thanks to our sponsor, Werner Christinger. As per request by our President, Christoph Geel, Peter Moser opened the festivities by welcoming the attendees. Followed by the champagne toast, our guests took their seats at tastefully decorated black and white tables.
The performance of the strolling violinist, James S. Farnsworth, was beyond anything that we could expect. Not only were his tunes uplifting but with his charming personality he swept away the whole dining room with enthusiasm. The dinner menu was a delight and everybody seemed to be pleased with the choice, the combined filet and fish dish as well as the various fancy and tasteful deserts.
It was an evening of surprises when magician, Keith Raygor, performed his striking and amazing show. What stunning entertainment with tricks that left our guests speechless. Needless to say, the two talented artists added a lot of magic to this memorable evening, giving it a good start into the New Year. One drop of bitterness remained missing our President, Christoph Geel, who is still recovering from his cancer treatment. We wish him all the best and look forward to welcome him at one of the events in the near future.
