On December 13, 2017 Central Region’s Wednesday  Evening Dinner Club celebrated the season, hosting their annual Holiday Party. Central Regional Council sponsors this beloved event every year and thanks to their generosity, along with the tireless dedication of the staff and volunteers, participants enjoy a hearty turkey feast and receive a special gift bag.

Charlotte Ann Siegel and Cassandra Anita Karvonen have been singing at the Dinner Club Holiday party for the past five years. The young women met when they started their Bachelor of Arts Classical Voice Performance Program at the University of Toronto.   Today, Cassandra and Charlotte have graduated from the University of Toronto and are both studying toward their Master of Arts in Opera: Cassandra at the University of British Columbia and Charlotte at McGill University in Montreal.

We are so happy that Cassandra and Charlotte continued to made time to come and sing for our Dinner Club participants at this year’s Holiday Party. Their beautiful voices, along with live piano accompaniment, enchanted the room and soon many of us were singing along to our favourite holiday tunes. The Holiday Party is a chance for Council Members, Dinner Club staff, volunteers and participants to catch up and kick back.

A highlight of the evening is a visit from Santa Claus himself. Santa brought cheer and laughter, checking his list twice and handing out presents!

We’re so looking forward to another fun-filled year of Wednesday evening Dinner Club and welcome you to join!
