Holiday Greetings
As 2025 draws to a close, I reflect on what a truly wonderful and memorable year this has been LSC is more than just a club, it’s a community where traditions thrive and unforgettable moments are created.
I want to express my heartfelt thanks to our members for your continued commitment, and my sincere gratitude to the Club staff who make everything possible every day.
This year was especially significant as we celebrated LSC’s centennial milestone in our history. It was inspiring to see so many of you participate and make these events a resounding success
Now, as the holiday season arrives, whether you ’ re cozying up by the fire or traveling to warmer destinations, I hope you enjoy a joyous and restful time. For those staying local, we invite you to join us at the Club for festive gatherings, delicious meals, and special moments as we close out our centennial year.
Wishing you a happy and healthy New Year
Here’s the next chapter of LSC!
Warmest regards, Benny Vanhulle
