Fun Lakers Club News

Bob and Vickie Bybee

Everyone had a great time at the Holiday Dinner/Dance party last month. The next event coming up will be the Woodstock/Lip Sync Contest on Jan. 15, 2022. We are looking for artists who want to perform in the Lip Sync Contest. This will be similar to our Woodstock event of the past. You will pick two songs from the 1960-1970 era artists. Our disc jockey, Jamal Johnson, will play two of your chosen songs on his sound system, over the top of you. You just have to dress and imitate your chosen artist’s movements and look like you are singing the songs. Each performer will do just two songs, 10 minutes tops. There will be cash prizes for the five top performers. Doors will open at 4 p.m., and food and drink will be available for purchase. The groups will start performing on stage at 4:30 p.m. in the Cottonwood ballroom, ending at 6:30 p.m., and then three hours of DJ music/dancing, and a self-photo booth will be available. Go to funlakers.org and print the registration form.

The Euchre Club meets year round on the first and third Tuesdays of the month. We also have Mexican Train every Monday evening at 6 p.m., in the Cottonwood Game Room.

Do not forget, if you are joining the Fun Lakers Club and you are single, sign up for the Solo group or let us know if you are a member and want to be added to the Solo list. Also, note that there is a Solo table at all events.

Sun Lakes Dance Parties started on Oct. 21 and end in April. The January party will be on the 20th. Prices are $10 at the door, and the doors will open at the Cottonwood San Tan Ballroom at 5:30 p.m. Free dance lessons begin at 6:30 p.m., with open dance from 7 to 9:30 p.m. Come for dinner (no-host bar) with a full food menu available. All are welcome. You do not have to be a Fun Lakers member to purchase a season pass or attend dances. A note for everyone is that all the paperwork says the doors open at 6 p.m.—they really open at 5:30 p.m.!
