The Christmas dinner at the Community Clubhouse was well attended. The hall was decorated with all the trimmings of the Holiday season. There was lots of yummy food provided by the club and members. The Oakdale High School Choir, under the direction of Bryan Mills, entertained the audience with many holiday songs, including a sing-a-long of Christmas favorites. There were many gifts and food under the tree for the less fortunate. It was a very enjoyable evening.
