Each year in December, Wesley Lodge is transformed into a Christmas delight.

To celebrate the holiday season, Lakeside Chautauqua hosts an annual Community Christmas Dinner held on Saturday, Dec. 6 in Wesley Lodge.

I sat down with Casie Eller, Programming manager, to learn more about this annual event. Eller’s year-round job at Lakeside is to provide administrative support to the Programming Department, especially the Vice President of Programming, Shirley Stary.

Eller has attended several events in Wesley Lodge, and this year’s Community Christmas Dinner will mark her fifth year attending the event.
