Calvary Lutheran Church (Mother-Daughter Banquet - 1971)

Approximately 120 women and girls attended the annual Mother-Daughter banquet Monay evening at Calvary Lutheran Church. “Hats off to Spring” was the theme for the evening. Table decorations consisted of colorful spring bonnets and blossoming petunia plants. Program covers were construction paper cartwheel hats trimmed with contrasting nylon net veils and ribbons.

The lasagna dinner, prepared by church women, was served by the men of the church headed by Arlo Clausen.

A program consisting of narration and slides, many of them nature studies, was provided by Herb Blum. Marilyn Galstad sang “O Happy Home”. She was accompanied by Mrs. Roger Heineck. Mrs. Kenneth Olson led the closing prayer.

Co-chairmen for the event were Mrs. Raymond Tesmer and Mrs. Don Clemens. They were assisted by Mrs. Kenneth Van Dam, Mrs. Donald Schield, Mrs. Murel Mott, Mrs. Arlo Clausen, and Mrs. Milford Tesmer.

Funds realized from the event are used to help finance summer Bible Camp attendance by youth of the church.
