A lively crowd came together in the Brewery Arts Center Ballroom on Valentine's Day for a Carson Tahoe Bridge Unit 465 social event. Appetizers and conversation filled the cocktail hour, followed by a catered dinner and dessert. The evening ended with a gift exchange, with attendees selecting from a pile of gifts under a sparkling tree, and sometimes "stealing" from each other to general amusement and laughter. Pictures shared here were taken by Barbara Kallestad.
