A special thanks to all those who made this event so wonderful including Brenda Fuller, Jennifer Marriott, Beth Smith, Betsy Tracy, Ned Thomson, Mary Lee Stamos, Nancy Wagner, Christine Lucarelli, Anne Nissim, Barbara Grasso, Tara Healey, MRYC Staff, Junior Entertainment Committee, Jayne Droge, and the House Committee for once again decorating the club so beautifully!
 
Also, we were overwhelmed with how many of you brought stocking stuffers that surely helped brighten someone’s Christmas!  Mary Lee Stamos kindly took her children to drop off the Huge Stocking to Family & Children’s Services in Long Branch, and they were extremely gracious!
 
Best wishes for a Happy, Healthy New Year!!!
