GLITTERADI….When Oklahoma City Golf and Country Club president Eddie Edwards and his wife Amy were honored at the 2008 President’s Ball, members had the best time ever.

The Brent Van Sickle Orchestra was outstanding. The Country Club was decorated beautifully and all of the food, including hors d’oeuvres, was excellent. Waiters stood near the front door holding all sorts of canapés from lobster corn dogs to duck comfit with goat cheese.

Beef tenderloin was the main course of the gourmet dinner and the menu was printed on a chocolate card (the chocolate was tasty too). A surprise dessert of chocolate espresso held another chocolate card inviting guests to the Great Hall for a decadent chocolate buffet. (This club is great at chocolate everything.)
