The dessert tables were adorned with sweets galore and even a table of just Chocolate what could be more perfect……………….Dinner was served at 7:00 p.m. to the hungry crowd………………..good company and laughter and the sound of Christmas music filled the air…………………. 

After Dinner merriment was provided by all those in attendance as The Caloosa Dive Club sang a version of the 12 Days of Christmas with  lyrics by our own Margie Elkins.   Everyone participated with laughter and singing………On the first Day of Christmas my true love gave to me A DIVE TRIP UNDER THE SEA…..On the second Day of Christmas my true love gave to me ……TWO EMPTY DIVE TANKS…..On the third Day of Christmas my true love gave to me… THREE BUSTED BC‘S….On the fourth Day of Christmas my true love gave to me……FOUR TWISTED HOSES….On the fifth Day of Christmas my true love gave to me…..FIVE “U” RINGS (That’s half an “O”ring)…On the sixth day of Christmas my true love gave to me…..SIX SKIN TIGHT DIVE SKINS……On the seventh day of Christmas my true love gave to me…..SEVEN CLOUDY DIVE MASKS………..On the eighth day of Christmas my true love gave to me…..EIGHT RIPPED UP WET SUITS……On the ninth day of Christmas my true love gave to me…..NINE CLOGGED UP REGULATORS……On the tenth day of Christmas my true love gave to me….TEN BROKEN FIN STRAPS……On the eleventh day of Christmas my true love gave to me……ELEVEN TEN POUND WEIGHT BELTS……..And on the Twelfth Day of Christmas……I figured he was trying to tell my something…..sooooooo I ran off with the guy in the dive shop…………………..
Rob your Dive Buddy was next with one present in particular making the rounds of nearly every table in the hall…………..Thank you my friends for your wise choices in re-gifting this year………..speaking of re-gifting………..Walter and Nancy got back the gift they got two years ago……………There were some happy people opening diving masks, tea sets, wine glasses, and then there was the Polynesian Fishing Trap…..hmmm wonder if the spear fishing guys are interested in that one for next year.  Everyone went away with something interesting that may appear once again next year in different wrapping…………….
