Filling a few tables, the Whitecappers took time this past week to travel to Rosebud, and enjoy a performance of the play, "A Christmas Story".  As always, live theatre is most enjoyable.  Accompanying the performance was a delicious meal served at the theatre.  Special thank yous to the drivers for taking members to the performance and to Deb Pearson for providing a few photos of the event.
