 The Ladies Day Holiday Luncheon

The 2024 Ladies Day Spring Luncheon

The annual Ladies Day Luncheon on June 10, 2024, with the theme Spring Fling, was attended by over one hundred members with their wives and guests. “The Rory Snyder Sound” quartet provided lively music, and some of the attendees took a turn around the dance floor. There were 31 bottles of wine donated by Ron Cassano, Buck Shot, and Jim Sowell, who donated a 2004  Dynamite Winery  Cabernet Sauvignon that was served at the bar. This wine had every quality that makes red wine delicious. Thank you, Jim, Other door prizes of 5 boxes of See’s one pound chocolates, was donated by Donna Schwan and Ray DeWitt brought Door Prizes from Rocco  Ristorante Pizzeria and a wine tasting from Muscardini Winery and there were two donated $50 gift certificates for the Pleasant Hill Wise Girl Ristorante and Back Forty Restaurant by owner Angela Kalinowski, and Ron Smith donated SIR logo corks for open wine bottles. Highlights of the luncheon included Ed Dijkman being presented a certificate of appreciation for his ten years of participating on the Annual Ladies Day Luncheon committee. Paula Murphy was also presented with a certificate of appreciation for her administrative efforts and the beautiful floral centerpieces she prepared for the tables. Her work on the LDL committee was the key to making this year’s luncheon a success and within budget. Thank you, Paula,   Update 09/05/25 MLF
