An elegant evening of dining and entertainment was enjoyed by those taking part in the Valentine Dinner on Feb. 13 at the McMinnville-Warren County Senior Center.
Festive decorations transformed the center into a holiday delight, with round tables covered in white cloths, placed around the room. Crystal vases filled with red ornaments were placed on each table, surrounded by red rose petals. Assorted candies were added for that extra little sweet treat.
The meal started with a fresh spring mix salad, followed by homemade spaghetti and meatballs, garlic bread sticks, and concluded with a lemon cake topped with lemon curd. A chocolate fountain with fresh strawberries, pineapple and pound cake was available for everyone to enjoy throughout the night.
As an extra touch, photographer James Certain, took photos of each guest or couple, providing them with a keepsake of the evening.
“I feel everyone had a good time at the dinner,” said Senior Center director Connie Smith. “It was a very special evening that took many hours of preparation.”
Entertainment was provided by the Trent Kell Band, playing assorted tunes throughout the night. The meal was graciously served by members of the Team Spirit baseball team.
