Thanks to the organization skills of Caroline Holt, the Lyon Village Holiday Party was another great success!  We enjoyed cookie decorating, kid crafts, hanging out, catching up and enjoying delicious food and drink provided by local restaurants.

 Special thank you to LV residents Stephen Fedeorchak and Kirstin Gibbs, proprietors of The Liberty Tavern, Lyon Hall and Northside Social, who generously donated mouth-watering pizzas, delicious desserts and a bevvy of grown-up beverages.  We also thank one of our newest eateries, Fireworks Pizza for some great signature pies, Restaurant 3 and Rocklands for their Mac & Cheeses, Bertucci's for their incredible Tira Misu and The Corner Bakery for their scrumptious cookies and cakes.  

None of this could have been possible without the volunteer efforts of Loria Porcaro, Don Gay and Caroline Holt for securing food donations, Rachel Bedell, Jay Brodsky, Fielding Winters, Heather Buck, and Steve Fedorchak who decked the halls, Mike Villado and Don Gay who picked up the delectables from local restaurants, HK Park, Susan Omberg, Lori Wright, Lisa Rados, Loria Porcaro who managed the craft,  cookie-decorating and kid chaos, Lorraine Nordlinger who donated said cookies, Warner Young who was an INCREDIBLY jolly and engaging Santa, Michael Porcaro for collecting email addresses for the LV listserv, and Adrienne Wichard-Edds, Jon Obenberger, Donna Norman, Nancy Ory, Loria and Michael Porcaro and John Carten, who left the Community House cleaner than we found it!  Great job, all!  Until the Easter egg hunt...!
