Annual December Christmas meeting

Our December Christmas meeting is always a festive occasion. Lots of smiles, delicious food with recipes from Tastes & Treasures, gifts to the AZ Heritage Center and a little business meeting.

Nancy Evans and Mary Parker visit near the dessert table where Espresso Brownies were served. The recipe is from page 163 Tastes & Treasures Volume I. A delicious, moist, chewy delight that is easy to make. If you have a copy of Volume I, hold onto this Collector's item. It is almost SOLD OUT!

President Claire Nullmeyer presented a gift of A/V help to Debbie McKinion for the AZ Heritage Center. Debbie was very grateful, naming all the many ways she can use these tools. Our mission is to support the AHS and this is one of many ways we do that.

Reports from staff and League members at June Zoom meeting.

Last Zoom meeting of the year was filled with good news. Staff reporting from AZ Heritage Center focused on increase in events, exhibits, weddings, reunions, volunteers, online programs and meetings. Love the new mustache game for children. They are encouraged to find mustaches hidden through out the museum. One child found 137!! Thanks to Debbie McKinnion and Marilyn Murphy for the updates.

From the comfort of our homes, we received end of the year reports at the June meeting. Thanks to Cindy Tidwell -Shelton for 4 years as Awards Chair. She turns it over to Karen Belt. Linda Corderman continues to work on Historymakers Hall with edited bios and new photos giving us a fresh look at this incredible program. She thanked her helpers Zona Lorig, Margaret Baker, Diane Smith and Susan Dale. Nina Filippi and Clede Gorrell asked everyone to check their homes for accurate inventory of Tastes & Treasures II. Diane Smith was congratulated for all the marvelous speakers she brought to us via Zoom this year. All jobs well done!
