Happy Holidays in Eagle Rock!
The season's festivities were launched on December 3 at the Festival of the Trees, sponsored this year by the Women's 20th Century Club of Eagle Rock. It was a fun event! Various organizations and businesses decorated trees that were raffled off at the first holiday party of the season. Cocktails and hors d'oeuvres were served and the party was lively.
I won the BLEND tree, pictured at left. It was decorated by the Northeast Police Station's community relations officers. If you look closely, you can see the yellow tape used for garland, the shotgun shells decorating the string of lights, various badges and pins, a helicopter or two, a police car, and a tiny set of handcuffs.
Another bonus to the evening was that $6,000 was raised to help with the preservation of our beloved Club building located at the corner of Colorado and Hermosa streets.
