With almost every seat taken at Phoenix Theatre for the December 6 presentation of The Wizard of Oz, the Historical League was happy to see the event a success. There were incredible raffle baskets filled with awesome gifts. And we'll let the pictures show how fabulous the food was.

Thanks to the hard work of chair Carolyn Mendoza and her helpers, especially Anne Lupica, we were pleased to see so many happy faces. The children and adults were fascinated with the story and the cast, the dancing, the singing, costumes and sets.

Congratulations on a wonderfully successful Family Holiday Party.
