Leona Valley Sertoma Hosts December Events

Leona Valley Sertoma Hosts December Events

Nobody needs to remind you that 2021 began pretty much the way 2020 ended, which is to say “not so great”, to put it mildly. However, Leona Valley Sertoma is determined not to let 2021 go out without some sense of normalcy as they host their annual 2021 Holiday Dinner, formerly called the Senior Christmas Dinner, and their 2021 Outdoor Holiday Food & Toy Drive. This is an opportunity for our Seniors to once again get together to swap stories, laugh, and enjoy good food. The Food and Toy Drive is an opportunity to once again help our neighbors who very well might not have the means to serve up a Christmas dinner or put toys under the tree this Christmas. We have all suffered in various ways due to the pandemic, but some more than others. If you have the means, we ask you to open your hearts to helping those less fortunate and we offer these events and our way to help. – thank you

Tis the Season – 2018

Tis the Season! That’s right, it’s that time of year again! Time to get together in celebration of the season and in recognition of people who deserve to be recognized. For Leona Valley Sertoma members, December has two long standing traditions, the Senior Christmas Dinner, held on December 2, 2018, and their annual Christmas party for the members. The Christmas party is an opportunity to enjoy fellowship with their fellow Sertomans and to hand out the Awards and was held on December 1, 2018 at the home of member Shirley Kraft.

2018 Senior Christmas Dinner

Leona Valley Sertoma once again hosted its annual Senior Christmas Dinner on Sunday, December 2, 2018 with plenty of good cheer and delicious food to go around. This event is not a fundraiser, but rather a thank you to our senior citizens. After all, Leona Valley would not be what is is without them.

Tis the Season to recognize the 2018 Sertoman of the Year, Mary Thomas.

On December 1st, Mary Thomas (right) received the “Sertoman of the Year” award representing her many years of loyal service to our organization. Mary has made quite an impressive contribution to the longevity and success of our small but mighty group – ALWAYS keeping us together with a smile and a loving hug.

 

2018 Service To Mankind Award

Tis the Season to recognize good works. 2018 Service To Mankind Award Recipients, Steve and Tamara Reaves.

On December 1st Steve and Tamara Reaves were surprised with the Sertoma “Service to Mankind” award for their excellence in community service.  Their entire family has not only provided a special comfort zone for Leona Valley, but have worked very hard organizing events that would appeal to the entire family.

Sertoma Senior Christmas Dinner

Volunteers man the tables at the 2013 Senior Christmas Dinner-05Leona Valley Sertoma would like to take this time to remind everyone of the upcoming Senior Christmas Dinner. This annual event is our chance to celebrate with the senior citizens in our communities and share food, gifts, and a good time; all in a social setting.

The Senior Christmas Dinner has been hosted by the Leona Valley Sertoma Bev prepping for the 2013 Senior Christmas Dinnersince 2002, but it started with Lea Rackette and the local 4H Club long before there even was a Leona Valley Sertoma. This well attended event is a great opportunity for our local senior citizens to get out, visit, enjoy a meal and in general have a great time. It also offers opportunities for volunteers, young and old to get to know these incredible folks and learn more about the history of the area and what it was like for older generations.

 

If you want to learn more about the upcoming Senior Christmas Dinner reach out to a member of the Leona Valley Sertoma. If you are a senior, or you know one, then you want to make sure and be at this event. It is sure to bring smiles and laughter in to your day. The flyer below has more information and contact info regarding this event.
