Over 120 Washington Township and area seniors wearing holiday garb were in party mode on Friday, December 7, 2007 at 11AM at St. Mark’s Church.

The Washington Township Department of Parks and Recreation sponsored the event in cooperation with St. Mark’s Church. This annual celebration reflected the spirit of the season from gifts crafted by the Long Valley Girl Scouts and their leaders; service provided by the Long Valley Junior Women’s Club; cards made by students attending Flocktown and Kossmann Schools; along with evergreen centerpieces assembled by the Garden Club of Long Valley, with the aid of local volunteers.

Entering guests were greeted by the harmonious strains of holiday music sung by the Hunterdon Harmonizers. Additional entertainment included performances by students from the Long Valley Middle School Chorus and Long Valley Middle School Ensemble, performing holiday selections led by teachers, Tara Postigo and Linda Quinn.

Our catered menu included Chicken Franchise, Spanakopita, Roast Beef with mashed potatoes, assorted greens, seasonal fruit with gourmet double chocolate brownies concluding the cuisine.

Capping the event, Santa arrived delighting everyone while presenting gifts crafted by the Girl Scouts
