Yoli Vaughn, and Carol Davis and company share a moment at the annual Manteca Soroptimists Holiday Affair.

It was once again a Holiday Affair to remember.

The 45th annual event hosted by the Manteca Soroptimists was held Wednesday with some 200 coming out and enjoying this fun-filled evening held at the Bank of Stockton.

“The community really supported us,” said Tedra Torrice of the local service organization.

The Holiday Affair is one of Manteca Soroptimists’ major Ways & Means projects not only meets the service projects but continues to help those in the community as well as worldwide.

Included is the Teen Crisis Counseling project. For over 30 years, Soroptimists have donated over $370,000 to help the youth of the Manteca Unified School District.

In attendance at the Holiday Affair were MUSD board member and Chief of Police Stephen Schluer, Carol Davis, Mayor Gary Singh, and other elected leaders, to name a few.

For Soroptimists, the Holiday Affair dates back to 1980 and continues to serve as one of big fundraising events come this time of the year.
