Cheers is a social club open to members from Sun Lakes, Springfield, SunBird, and Solera communities. Our current 149 members invite you to become a part of the Cheers family, whether you are a year-round or a seasonal resident. The club offers many activities and programs, including social time, wine tasting, dining out, book club, games, golfing, and group travel opportunities.

With your $25 annual dues you will be provided access to the members-only website and calendar of activities. The Cheers weekly social meets on Thursday, Sun Lakes Oakwood Country Club, 4 to 5:30 p.m. The meeting is a forum for meeting new friends, visiting with current ones, and sharing club announcements and upcoming activities. Visitors and potential new members are welcome, without obligation to join. Weekly meetings are followed with the opportunity for group dining at a local restaurant.

Below are some of our group activities:

Golf-Golf is in full swing, playing a variety of courses in Sun Lakes and nearby communities. Cheers members gather on Friday mornings and usually have room for additional players.
