To the editor:

As they say, it takes a village to raise a child, so it is with a fundraiser. The Oasis Senior Citizens Center held a new fundraiser, Festival of Tables, on Sunday, November 11, 2018.

I would like to publicly thank the "village" that made this event possible.

The table hosts and the creators of the beautiful tablescapes: Scott McClure, CareLink; Deb Maaks, Copper Creek Cottages; Julie Williamson, Generations at Lincoln; Tisha Perry, Timber Creek Village; Patti Becker; Virginia Hughes, Sherry McQuinn, Mary Beth Jackson; Elaine Knight, Katarina Hoback; Marilyn Lowery; Laura Sandrolini; Nancy Cunningham;  and Michele Hansen-Hoback.
 


The wonderful food, donated and prepared by: Pamela Kunkel, Nick and Jeanie Xamis plus imported English tea donated by Alexis Asher.
