Ready or not, December is here and the holidays are soon to follow. Fortunately for us here at Talking Rock, winter brings one of our favorite seasons as it ushers in beautiful snow, friendly faces and plenty of cheer at our annual holiday events. Though most of our members have had these marked on their calendars since January, we couldn't help but remind everyone of what's coming up in this very exciting time of year:

10th Anniversary TR Holiday Dinner – Thursday, Dec. 15 at 5:00 pm

We invite our members and their families to join us for the first of many "10th Anniversary" events that will be taking place in 2012. Food & Beverage Director Ryan Davis and Executive Chef Richard Saldivar are looking forward to an evening of great food, libations and spirit as we get together to celebrate another holiday season in Prescott. The evening will begin with hors d’ oeuvres and a no-host cocktail hour. Dinner service will follow at 6 p.m. with a three-course plated meal featuring holiday favorites like Bison Tenderloin and Wild King Salmon. During the event we will also be hosting a complimentary wine tasting and offering big discounts for holiday wine purchases.

As is tradition we ask all couples to bring one, wrapped gift (of $20 or less in value) for the gift exchange game that will follow dinner. Seating in the Ranch House is limited so make your reservations soon by e-mailing reservations@talkingrockclub.com or by contacting Ryan Davis.

TR's Annual New Year's Bash – Saturday, Dec. 31 at 6:30 pm

Join us as we raise a glass and toast to another great year here at Talking Rock. Ring in 2012 with a fantastic evening that includes a seven-course, sit down dinner prepared by Chef Richard and the culinary team that will amaze you and your guests.

After dinner we are bringing back the very popular David Mills Jazz Band as we dance in the hopes and dreams of a fantastic New Year. Please contact Ryan to reserve your table or send us an e-mail at reservations@talkingrockclub.com.

We hope you'll join us for these fabulous festivities as we can't wait to celebrate the wonderful year it's been and bring in the next with our Talking Rock family and friends. Here's to yet another happy holiday season!
