December Nights 2025
December Nights will be on December 5 and 6 this year. This is our major fundraiser for the year and most of our money comes in during December nights. We need full participation from our members. We need volunteers to prepare food and glögg, serve food and glögg December 6 and 7, and clean up the cottage after the event. We have set up signup sheets for our volunteers using signup.com. Here are the links to sign up. If you are serving food or glögg, you must have a current food handler's permit.
