The Half Moon Bay I.D.E.S. Society held their annual Esta Das Contas which is a Thank You to the general membership and to those who donated to the organization in this year’s Celebration of the Holy Spirit. The dinner for 300 was held on July 26 at the building on Kelly Avenue, which is owned by the organization.
Eddie Cozzolino, the president of IDES, and his fellow officers, greeted the guests. The officers and members prepared the food and their wives served it from the buffet tables. The guests were served with salad, steak, baked potatoes, and bread. Coffee and dessert were also provided as well as various beverages. The dinner was followed by music for dancing.
