Have yourself a merry little Christmas Eve brunch and party Saturday, Dec. 24, at 11 a.m. at the Pasadena Senior Center, 85 E. Holly St.
The holiday has not been celebrated onsite at the center for the last two years due to the COVID pandemic. Now the center is open again as a gathering place for holiday celebrations as well as many other events and activities. Weather and temperature permitting, the Christmas Eve brunch and party will take place on the spacious outdoor patio; in the event of inclement weather, it will take place indoors in the Scott Pavilion. Whatever location is selected, it will be decorated beautifully and will overflow with holiday spirit as guests enjoy the feast with all the trimmings. Pianist Steve Ormond will provide entertainment, and Santa will stop by with Christmas cheer and gifts for everyone! The cost is only $15 for members of the Pasadena Senior Center and $20 for nonmembers of all ages. Prepaid reservations must be made no later than Wednesday, Dec. 21, at www.pasadenaseniorcenter.org (click on Activities & Events, then Special Events) or the Welcome Desk at the center.
