Mayflower Has Prelude to Christmas

On Thursday, December 5th, The Mayflower Community (Grinnell IA) presented the annual “Prelude to Christmas” dinner. The event featured the delicious food for which Mayflower is known plus resident and guest congeniality. In addition, the event was buoyed by the striking holiday décor in the Buckley Dining Room and outside, through the tall patio windows in the Buckley Courtyard.
