Heads Up!

CCDS Christmas Party

Sunday, December 1 5-8 pm

Greetings,

The holiday season is fast approaching, and we have a few things to announce before the New Year.

Save the date of December 1st for our annual Christmas party. It's early this year because Harvey and Mary are providing us with a special treat, and they want to be able to celebrate the holiday with us before heading south. The party will be Sunday from 5-8 pm. A private chef will be preparing our Christmas dinner so all we have to do is bring ourselves, family or a friend.

Please RSVP Maureen by NOVEMBER 25TH. 413-822-1028.

We had our first show committee meeting, and we accomplished several items so far.

Updates will be posted periodically.

Hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving and see you December 1st.

Maureen

Some thoughts written by Glenn van Oort in remembrance of distinguished past members...

In memory of Jeannette Rotondo

In her life she loved horses

 beyond horses her life was full,

of music, family, friends and fields.

Together with Ralph farming and

starting generations plus groups

benefitting others.

Sharing experience. But more.

Love of people, always asking

 how are you doing and meaning it.

In memory of

Keath J. Fortier

The horse he drove,

was not flashy or high stepping,

but steady, with more go than whoa.

Keath was like that, steadfast and brave,

with more attributes than most know,

playing the pipes and fiddle,

or as Ring Master, dressed to impress.

Happy there and of course,

with Dawn in a cart behind their horse,

always at home in house or barn,

surrounded with those he loved.

From those he left here below,

Keath O Keath we miss you so.
