Shuffleboard

This Wednesday morning there was Yoga at the Clubhouse at 9 am and Shuffleboard over in the A Section at 10. Here is a picture taken by our Lakewood Photographer - Barb - of the shuffleboard group that is headed by Ray and Martha.

As with Bunco - I don't know what any scores are - or even if they keep score ~~

Bridge is at the Clubhouse this afternoon at 1:30 - Maybe our Village Reporter and Photographer - Barb - will be able to gather more info on the "doins" around the Village! and we will continue on our journey of fun in the sun!!

You can leave comments, notices, or just get well wishes in the comment section. Feel free - but remember - anything considered unkind will be deleted.

Nettie Nelson

At Bunco on Monday night - the Bunco team honored Nettie with cake and a big round of Happy Birthday. Her Birthday is on Friday and she will be 93 years young. You see Nettie everywhere - riding her bike - walking - handing out beads at Mardi Gras, dancing, playing Bocci - she is just one of the most active people I know. And she is sweet too!! She is the Mother of Barb, Grandmother of Connie - and they are all residents here. A Lakewood Family Tree!! Nettie was very suprised and of course, so very happy that so many thought of her ~

The scores are posted up at the Clubhouse - so I have no clue who did what for winners and losers - and booby :-)

Bunco is played every Monday night at 7 pm. All residents are welcome - and we all have a great time!!!

Mardi Gras

Thanks to our Social Club and the hard work of the outgoing President and First Man and their committees - we had a wonderful party on Saturday! The turnout was amazing for our Annual Park-Wide Party. This year it had a Mardi Gras Theme and many were in great costumes!! We were met outside the door by Nettie and given beads and a huge welcome - which no one can do like she can. . . The Crossings Community Church brought out their "events" trailer - so the kids had 3 big jumping structures provided by them.

We also paid tribute to Marthmae. She has been a long-time resident with a very full "resume" of things she has accomplished here at the Village. She has been very busy during her time here. Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of her in her Red-Hat Grand Dame regalia - to many other were in front of her. She has a 90th birthday coming up soon and was also given a box of cards from residents. She left a very happy lady!!

After the tribute to Marthamae, we ate hot dogs, hamburgers, chicken, all sorts and types of salads, and desserts provided by residents and the Social Club. If anyone left hungry - it was definately thier own fault!

After the family portion of the celebration was over - the music started and the adult party began. Since I haven't been feeling well - we left soon after but I'm sure that all had a wonderful time!!
