Special thanks to Zoliié Cibulas, Pug and Pen Duruttya for organizing the super surprise party for President Duruttya, on his birthday! There were 120 plus insurance and social members present. The President was indeed surprised! He commented he didn’t know how so many people could keep a secret without him finding out! Many, many thanks to Mrs. Kathy Cibulas for all the delicious pastry and törte birthday cake she baked. Mr. Duruttya received a beautiful portable T.V. set from his friends. The children’s Christmas party was held December 21st. There were 130 children present. Mrs. Claus (played by Penny Duruttya) lead the children in Christmas carols. Mistress of Ceromonies, Andrea Duruttya, lead the children in playing games with the assistance of Sherri Thomas and Lori McClung. Tom and Stefanie Schaefer, grandchildren of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Bologh (our bus driver to bowling tournaments) entertained the children at the Christmas party with songs and dance routines that they have performed at their various public appearances. Mrs. Claus welcomed Santa Claus (played by Gary Heestand) whose help is greatly appreciated by Penny when his assistance is needed in the kitchen. Santa talked with each and every child present. He gave each child a bag of goodies. Refreshments were served by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors wish to thank the Home Office for their contribution to our Children’s party.

Fraternally, Marie Duruttya Branch 1 50 Masontown, Pa. We did something different this year, first, with a 3-piece band we sang Christmas songs, then the children that wanted to sing or recite Christmas songs and poems did so. The children and parents were served hot dogs, cookies and soda, and then each child received a bag of assorted candy with an apple, orange and popcorn ball. Then Santa Claus arrived. The parents were given 2 free tickets to get drinks at the club. I would say this Christmas party was a great success. Louis Jesso
