February’s cold temperatures and snow could not keep seniors from the delicious food, good friends and live entertainment at the Orland Township February luncheon, according to the office of Orland Township Supervisor Paul O’Grady.

The Valentine’s Day themed luncheon was held at the Orland Chateau to maintain social distance, with no more than six to a table. Guests dined on a plated chicken meal, with soup, salad and dessert.

After the meal, seniors were entertained by the hits of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and the Rat Pack, to name a few, as performed by local musician Nino Folino.
