Sun City Residents Celebrate "Christmas with the Core"

More than 200 residents of the Sun City "core" community of Menifee gathered in Webb Hall Saturday night for a celebration of the Christmas season.

Participants in the "Christmas with the Core" program enjoyed a turkey dinner, served by youth affiliated with the Menifee Rotary Club. Many door prizes were given away and entertainment was provided following the meal.

Greg August, city council representative to District 1, attended the event along with fellow council member Tom Fuhrman, who came dressed as Santa Claus. Many local businesses contributed gifts for the prize drawings.
