APC Open House

Our Club’s Open House on November 17th lasted from 1 to 5 PM and all enjoyed the variety of food items skillfully prepared by Mary Radkiewicz, Ela Cichocka, and Iwona Anderson.  A large plate of appetizers was contributed by Polish Cottage restaurant.  

 

Three sets of door prizes were awarded, with the winning cards randomly picked by six-year-old Eva.  Coincidentally, one of the winners she chose (without looking) was her mother Misan Francis. 

 

A successful silent auction was organized by Alicja Mann with the help of Robert Casler & David Mountain. The auction was populated by 30 interesting items, donated to the Club by members.  All items, but a few, were actually bid for and claimed. 

 

The highlight of that day was a demonstration of  Wycinanki (paper cutouts) by our member --Magdalena Nowacka-Janotta, an expert of that form of Polish folk art. 

 

Martha Swinen was --as always-- a very graceful Sargent of Arms of the event.
