a Fine evening of holiday Cheer

a warm, cozy setting welcomed guests inside the Inverness Club in South Toledo for the Block Communica-tions Inc. holiday party on Dec. 8.

As if on order for the occasion, a light dusting of snow was visible through the windows facing the club’s spotlighted golf course.

The party was hosted by Block Communica-tions Chairman Allan Block and his wife, Su-san. A buffet of delicious food ranging from smoked salmon to petite crab cakes delighted the nearly 200 party-goers.
