Fun Lakers Golf Cart Rally

Bob and Vickie Bybee

It’s so refreshing and energizing to see the new and building excitement of getting together again to create memories as we did pre-COVID. While we still live with it, we now have more protection from its negative medical impact!

A good time was had by all at the three March events (Sisk Park Game Day, Golf Cart Rally, and Sock Hop Dance Party). The Sock Hop was filled with people dressed in the style of the 50s and St Patrick’s Day! What a sight to see—poodle skirts, ponytails, jeans and white t-shirts, leather jackets, and lots of dancing!

The Golf Cart Rally was a real success. We had a lot of people and golf carts show up for the games, dinner, and awards. Go to www.funlakers.org to see pictures, with the addition of photo albums to the site!

We had two events in April: the Painting and Wine Party on April 3, and the final Dance Party of the season on April 21, which was the Spring Fling, with beachy summer dress and celebration of the coming summer, with musician Thaddeus Rose.

Our only May event is the return of the Horse Race at the San Tan Ballroom in Cottonwood on May 7. Wear your best Derby hat to win a gift card. The DJ will be spinning tunes for dancing between races.

It’s the time of the year when the Fun Lakers start recruiting for the 2022-23 board of directors officers, various chair and vice chair positions, and event volunteers. Our Nominating Committee is looking to identify new board prospects to bolster our organization and continue learning about and supporting our members’ needs. You must be a member in good standing, and we can help you join or update your membership status as needed. You can visit us at www.funlakers.org to see what we are doing and request more information. Don’t forget to check out the Fun Lakers Facebook page www.facebook.com/funlakersclub to see pictures of recent events. Also, Nextdoor has events scheduled.

Euchre meets on the first and third Tuesdays of the month, and Mexican Train every Monday evening at 6 p.m. in the Cottonwood Game Room.

Come join us and be part of the Fun Laker Fun Makers!
