A belated 🎅 Merry Christmas 🌲from the CEO and staff to all.
We have been busy completing the Japanese garden ⛩️ stage of our landscaping, in spite of inclement weather 🌧, COVID 😷 and other illnesses.
We were very pleased to host a family and friends 👨‍👩‍👧👨‍👩‍👧‍👧👨‍👦👨‍👩‍👦 Christmas 🎅 lunch this year, and will be the venue for another MTG event this weekend.
Hoping to see you in 2024 at The Lodge.
