Letter: Thanks for support of Holte Holiday Dinners in 2012

It is at this time that we wish to thank you for your coverage of the Holte Holiday Diners. With your support and that of many volunteers we were able to meet expenses as well as serve over 500 people a Christmas dinner of turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, dressing, tri tip, and dessert. This could not have been the huge success it was without the help of scores of volunteers and organizations that made it possible. Those who helped included: Mike and Allison Sicoli - Round Table Pizza, San Juan Bautista Rotary, Bob Stone - Tri Way Meats, San Benito County Cattleman’s Association, Napa Auto Parts, Sacred Heart Church , Presbyterian Church, St. Luke’s Church, Pansona, Mansmith B-B-Q, San Benito High School, Father Rudy, Marich Confectionary, Top Hatters of Hollister, Frank Scalmanini, Kay Filice – Filice Farms, Holte Executive Board. We apologize if anyone or an organization was omitted. Thanks again for every ones support in making the dinner a huge success!
