Christmas greetings
from Ann Delaney

Greetings:
I wrote this poem many years ago after passing a house that I promise took six months to decorate for Christmas. I hope you enjoy it.

WHOO-EEEEE !!!
by: Ann Delaney, Recording Secretary

Our Christmas tree is 100 feet tall.
We hired a bucket truck.
We emptied every discount store,
You decoration shoppers are out of luck.

My Dad said, "It's Christmas son.
We'll give them folks a thrill."
The electric company smugly smiled
And sent a doubled bill.

Cars block the street, the police are mad,
Our neighbors will not speak.
The lights of town, they blink and dim
T.V.A. just topped its peak.

It's off and on, the flash and zoom.
The red, the green, - - - it's bright.
Ripley's sent us the word just yesterday
They're memorializing this site..

*Happy Ho Ho! love Ann

GFWC Tullahoma Woman's Club

GFWC Tullahoma Woman's Club president, Judy Starr (third from left) welcomes new members Suzanne Rutley, Donna Frame, Mary Ann Allen and Janis Gleason

GFWC Tullahoma Woman's Club has set membership as its top priority for the year and inducted for new members at their annual Harvest Luncheon in November.

Ann Cunningham, membership chairman, conducted an installation ceremony for new members Janis Gleason, Mary All Allen, Donna Frame and Suzanne Rutley.

The luncheon was the time to remember 'children' with books for Cops and Readers and the "little red wagon" at the local hospital pediatric ward, boxes for the Unicorn project and a toy for Toys for Tots.

In October the club held its annual fundraiser, an Attic Sale. The proceeds from the sale will be donated to charitable and service organizations that aid women and children in the community.
