A Present Under Turner’s Tree

Christmas came early for Montecito’s Turner Foundation when president Dean Wilson was presented with a check for $175,000 by polo playing Farmers & Merchants Bank president Dan Walker at the financial institution’s annual Yuletide fête at its East Carrillo Street branch.

The 100-guest bash, which featured Dickensian-costumed carol singers and comestibles from Rincon Catering, attracted quite the crowd including Luke Swetland, Santa Barbara Polo Club manager David Sigman, Warren Butler, Adam McKaig, Frank Tabar, and Nolan Nicholson.
