Happy Holidays from the Board members of the Times of Skinker DeBaliviere.
We wish all our neighbors the nicest of celebrations and a healthy and happy New Year.
The Times is put out by volunteers–most of whom have fulltime jobs.
It has always been a labor of love but a labor in which we would like to be joined by additional volunteers.
There is always room for more writers, a photographer, new hands to help with layout, people to sell ads.
If you have a couple hours a month that you could donate, please call us.
We always have a good time and great parties to boot!
As editor, I would like to thank all of those who aided the Times this year. Sue Rothschild has become our fundraising maven.
She and Venita Lake worked very hard on our booksale Our financial people, JoAnn Vatcha and Julie Schoemehl, joined Sue and her husband Sandy in putting on our Trivial Pursuit party. MO Weir has made possible the continued production of the Times with her computer-based typesetting.
She has been joined on layout by our ace photographer King Schoenfeld, Venita, JoAnn, Julie, and new neighbor James Nacy. Thanks to Kathleen Williams, Lois Schoemehl, Rose Storey, Catherine Forslund, Katie and Paul Kurtz for helping out with refreshments at our 25th anniversary party as well as at the fundraiser. Thanks to Andy Cross for his marvelous commemorative poster and for Roy Roncal and the West End Arts Council for making its production possible. Thanks to our elected officials–Dan McGuire and Nancy Farmer–for having the Board of Aldermen and the Missouri House of Representatives recognize our anniversary. Thanks to Kathleen Hamilton and Central West End Bank for a very special plaque. Thanks again this year to Art Santen and Brad Weir, who distribute the Times to our neighborhood distribution sites every month.
Finally, thank you to those who have written for the Times this past year.
We appreciate your contributions and I hope they will continue. Special thanks to Mary Schmit who has been arranging all the features about Hamilton School. And now, Merry Christmas to All and to All a Good Night.
