Fun Lakers Club news and upcoming events

 

Carole Sinicki

A special welcome to all of our new members who joined the Fun Lakers Club during the October Open Houses in Sun Lakes. Our club is growing, and we are planning a record number of events for you this season.

SunBird will be hosting its Open House on November 13, so it’s not too late to stop by and speak with our SunBird Ambassador for the Fun Lakers Club, Harry Huckemeyer. Our club president, Don Morgan, will be there to chat and answer questions about our club activities as well. It’s also a great time to become a member. The cost remains only $12.00 per year, which includes a free members-only pizza party in January. In addition, if you join now, your membership will include the remainder of 2018, as well as all of 2019.

Our second annual, Chili for Charity potluck is returning November 10. Child Crisis Arizona will again be our chosen charity. We will be serving “Arizona’s Best Chili,” provided by the club. The evening will include games, music and a silent auction. The cost will be $12.00 per member and $17.00 for nonmembers. We will be donating proceeds from our 50/50 raffle. Child Crisis also needs gift cards for the purchase of food, clothing and household items, as well as basic items for children. All Fun Lakers Club members have received the registration/flyer through email. You may also check out this activity on our website at www.funlakers.org.

One season-long event is the Sun Lakes Dance Party, sponsored by the Fun Lakers Club. Our November dance will be on November 15 in the San Tan Ballroom at Cottonwood. The cost at the door is $12.00 per person. Music will be provided by Thaddeus Rose. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. A dance lesson begins at 6:30 p.m., and open dancing will be from 7:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Future dance party dates include January 17, February 21, March 21 and April 11. Please be sure to mark your calendars.

To complete the fall season, the Fun Lakers Club will be hosting its annual Holiday Dinner/Dance on Saturday, December 15, in the San Tan Ballroom at Cottonwood. Entertainment this year will be provided by the Thaddeus Rose Band. This is one of FLC’s signature events, so be sure to save the date. Details will be available this month.

The Fun Lakers Club is all about creating and fostering new and lasting friendships and, of course, Having Fun! If you haven’t joined or are not sure if it’s the right match for you, why not give us a try? Our membership form is available on our website, www.funlakers.org. The season for FUN lasts all year round for the Fun Lakers Club, and we look forward to seeing you at one of our future events.
