As
the rain threatened to turn Coach Jac's backyard into an outdoor pool,
Bart Parnes stepped in at the last minute and played impeccable host to
our 2009 Grunions Holiday Party on Dec. 12. A group of very
animated Grunions warmed up the temperature at Bart's house, where food
and drinks were plentiful to keep everyone nourished and happy
throughout the night.

Besides
food and desserts aplenty, another Grunion tradition was the funny
"white elephant" gift exchange, where presents nice and naughty made us
laugh and get into the holiday spirit. Nothing like a Grunion party to
nourish the body and lift the spirits, especially coming after a
weekend of very hard work at the Belmont Meet.
Thank you all for the great food, drinks and company! And a special thank you to Bart for opening up his house for the Grunions!
