Later in the week, many painted clay pots to make nutcrackers to be sold at Christmas by the residents’ council. Thursday afternoon and evening, a successful Christmas open house was hosted by Wanda Regier and her daughter Melanie Regier, owners of ‘One of a Kind’ in Bayfield. Hot chocolate, goodies and great company set the theme for the season. Fifteen percent of pro- ceeds were donated back to the residents’ council. Entertainment was pro- vided by Gladys Van Egmond and Her Merry Makers and The Christian Reformed Choir. Thursday’s chapel ser- vice was conducted by Pastor Harold Shantz fol- lowed by Mass with Father Frances.
