A special welcome to all of our new members who joined the Fun Lakers Club during the November Open House in SunBird. Our club is growing, and we are planning a record number of events for everyone this season. Membership remains only $12.00 per year, and if you join now, your membership will include both 2018 and 2019. Don’t forget that members always receive the best pricing at each of our events. Check out our website at www.funlakers.org.
The Fun Lakers Club is heading into a great winter season in Sun Lakes/SunBird. The Holiday Dinner/Dance is set for Saturday, December 15, in the San Tan Ballroom at Cottonwood CC. The party begins at 5:00 p.m. for cocktails (cash bar). Dinner will follow at 5:45 p.m. with a choice of mouthwatering ribeye steak or delicious Chicken Picatta. Salad, sides, desserts, iced tea and coffee are all included. Following dinner, the Thaddeus Rose Band will provide the music while we dance the night away (7:00 to 10:00 p.m.).
The cost per person for the Holiday Dinner/Dance will be $35.00 for members and $45.00 for nonmembers. This year, the Fun Lakers Board voted to give YOU a holiday present. Because of our overall increase in membership and attendance at our events, we will subsidize the cost of this year’s holiday dinner, saving members and guests at least $10 per person over the actual cost.
The event flyer and registration form for the Holiday Dinner/Dance have been sent out to all FLC and Dance Party members. If you are a nonmember and would like to attend, you may download the registration form from our website, www.funlakers.org. It will be quite a special evening, so be sure to sign up early. The deadline to register is December 7.
The annual members meeting will be held on Saturday, January 5, 2019, at Poolside in Oakwood. This is a meet-and-greet evening which will include free pizza, music and fun. It’s also time for our current members to renew their memberships for 2019. Memberships may be renewed at the meeting, or you may download the renewal form and mail it directly to Jackie Morgan, the FLC Treasurer.
Our season-long, “Sun Lakes Dance Party,” sponsored by the Fun Lakers Club, will continue into the new year. There will not be a dance in December because of the Holiday Dinner/Dance. Future dance party dates include January 17, February 21, March 21 and April 11. All dances this year are located in the San Tan Ballroom in Cottonwood. The cost at the door is $12.00 per person. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. A dance lesson begins at 6:30 p.m., and open dancing will be from 7:00 to 9:30 p.m. Please be sure to mark your calendars.
The season for FUN lasts all year round for the Fun Lakers Club. We look forward to seeing you at any and all of our club activities throughout the year.
