On Tuesday, January 19, 2010, our South County House held a Pot Luck Supper and their Annual Meeting at 6:00 PM at the Beechwood Community Center off Beach Street in Wickford.

It was a blustery night and we were delighted to have over thirty attendees, including five invited guests from our Aquidneck Island House.

During cocktails we were entertained with music performed by classical guitarist, Tom Stracensky, a pupil of Joe Smith’s from Exeter. Tom is a very talented young man and his performance was both outstanding and most enjoyable.

At the pot luck dinner, the main dish casserole of chicken, mushrooms and wild rice (very tastey!) was provided by Victoria Remington of Meals to Come Home To. Her motto is “I shop, I cook, You Enjoy” – and we certainly did! (We have her contact information as well as contact information for Tom S.) Members highlighted the casserole with delicious vegetables, salads, breads and a wonderful assortment of desserts. It was excellent.

During dinner, a brief business meeting was held to elect officers for the coming year. A more detailed afternoon general business meeting will be scheduled in the spring. Minutes of the meeting will be provided shortly.

After coffee and dessert everyone was on their way by 8:30 PM.
