Cedar trees weren't the only casualties of the snow last week. The annual the Clinch Coalition (TCC) Holiday Dinner in Coburn was postponed last Tuesday but took place Wednesday evening at the Tacoma Center.

This was an extra special dinner as it closes out our organization's celebration of its 20th Anniversary (which I will talk about when I finally blog about the Naturalist Rally). There was plenty of work before the dinner like set up, getting food and auction items ready. One of my many tasks was making coffee, another putting up and talking down tables.

As always we had great food an excellent speaker, Gabriel Zeiger who's program was Zen and the Art of Mushroom Hunting. Gabriel has been studying mushrooms in this area for 23 years and considers herself more of a mushroom enthusiast than an expert. She is a member of the North American Mycological Association, it was a very interesting and informative presentation.

As for the Silent Auction, I did win a few items, including a set of four Nestcfe world cups...nice! However, the best part was getting together with the great people who make up the TCC.
