WINTER HAS ARRIVED


Brr. it is really chilly here in the Florida Village.
Of course this is not what we wake up to here but what some
of our northern families are doing.
The sun is out but the temperatures are really unusually
low. Keep warm everybody.
***
This brisk chill has kept some in as it has been advised and
several activities have been cancelled this week.
Your swimming classes, Bocci and almost any outside
activity will continue next week if the weather permits.
***
Have scores for the Bunco games that were played on
Monday night.
A great turn-out was experienced and the results are:
Most buncos went to Joan W. (4)
Most games won went to Joan W. and Beth V. (19)
A newcomer to the game who had a wonderful time goes to
Gloria F.
Great show guys and the treats by Connie, Rita, and Nancy D.
were appreciated.
~~~~
Coffee hour was open for all residents and attended by a
wonderful group.
Our thanks to Diane and Sherron for the efforts in all
the goodies that they provided.
The Visiting Nurse was on hand to take our blood pressures.
This is a great way to start the day. We thank them for coming
once a month on Tuesdays.

Peg D. has the flyers out for our upcoming Ladies TEA PARTY.
This has always been an outstanding event where all the ladies
come dressed up for this old fashion tea party.
If you have any china tea sets and would like to lend them to this
event, please let Peggi know so she can count on as many as possible.
Mark your calendars as this is one event you won't want to miss.

Clean up


Just a quick note for 2 reasons~~

One
The bracelet that was lost has found it's owner and has been returned.  I'm really glad that it was found instead of being 'swept out with the garbage'.

Second
The cleanup scheduled for tomorrow (Saturday) is no longer necessary.  The Clubhouse has been cleaned and de-decorated.  Tablecloths are in the process of being laundered - so all has been done - but many thanks to those who were willing to go lend a hand.

Happy New Year to All

Most wonderful time of the year



We toast all of you into 2010

~~~~~~
Yes,,,it was a most wonderful evening that was celebrated in our beautifully decorated clubhouse.
The air was alive with the friendship that comes with "almost family". For one evening many of our Lakewood families joined in to welcome the New Year. Most all the tables were filled with happy, smiling, glittery and not glittery, skirted and not, and hardly anyone left before the ball, operated by Will, dropped at midnight.

The feeling was that next year everyone is willing and happy to work together to build our Village into a bigger and better place to enjoy our lives ran throughtout the evening..

Our thanks to the many who helped make our last evening of 2009 a true success.
The Social Club Pres. Sherry W., who after making several presentations, turned the evening over to her most trusted member, Jessie. Jessie and her crew did an outstanding job of making sure everything went according to plan.
(Thanks to John, many,many tickets got sold).
The food that everyone brought was of the highest quality; tasty and good looking too!, and no one walked away hungry. Music, well what can we say for it. Sherri and Jack kept the music going from the time we walked in until we locked the doors. Everyone danced until they couldn't dance anymore and some danced even more than that~! The air was just sparkling thanks to our music crew.
Many stayed to help clean up after everyone had their fill of food and drinks. That family feeling helped to conclude the last night of the year!

Our deepest thanks to you all.
No one can say it wasn't a wonderful night.
***
Now go out and make 2010 the best year yet for
Lakewood Village.
****
It takes a lifetime to grow an old friend.
We are doing it everyday here.
