The NFB Club ONF 2004 Christmas Brunch

The luxurious L'H�tel de la montagne Restaurant le Lut�tia again hosted the Club's annual December brunch. After investigating several other possible locations, the committee could not find an other place that compared atmosphere, cuisine and price-wise. Everyone seemed satisfied with the choice and, as usual, the food and service were excellent and the Christmas decorations were most spectacular. Traditionally a cold buffet was followed by a three-course hot dinner and a lavish dessert buffet.

During dessert, a master of sleight-of-hand entertained with some amazing table by table stunts. The hotel again offered two door prizes of a night's stay at L'H�tel de la Montagne and the winners were Claude LeBrun and (honestly the name was legally drawn) me.

I would like to thank all of the members of our committee for their efforts in making this yea's event a succcess. In particular, thanks to Olivier Foug�res for his planning.

We had slightly fewer participants this year and I would sincerely appreciate hearing from those who chose not to attend this year as to any suggestions they might have to change this Club event.
