Nick and Judy DeCherico have lived in Lakewood Village for 34 years. They will be celebrating 56 years of marriage on April 3. Nick was 91 on January 22nd and Judy will be 90 years old on July 2nd.

Elmer, Bo, and Robin replace the deck at Nick and Judy's. The old one had gotten to rotten to be safe - so the 3 "boys" got together and replaced it.

Tuesday Bingo

Nancy Conners is the Captian of the Volunteer Team that worked Bingo this last Tuesday. There was a little over 1/2 of a room full of players that were busy daubing thier cards in thier quest for the "prize"!

The Social Club sponsors our Tuesday Bingo. It is the only consistant income that the Social Club has. The very small percentage that the Club keeps helps to pay for the Park-Wide Parties and to offset the costs of the other events that we have. There is also a Galley which offers several different items for break. Coffee and Ice Water is complimentary. If you don't want to work - come play!! Support your Social Club!!

Jerolyn (our Past President) set up weekly teams of Volunteers to work the Bingo - It really takes quite a few people each week. If you happen to have a few hours - or even - for some of the duties - an hour or so - to help out - give Jerolyn a call and she will put you in touch with one of the Team Captains.

This last Tuesday Norm Emard, Bob Ozment, and Diane Beatty were the callers. Jerolyn and Mickey did the Galley, I have no idea who the volunteers were that did the set up and selling of the books, daubers, 50/50's, and get orders for 1/2 time. Carey and Barb Emard assisted Nancy with the clean up - as well as Mike Palazo, who comes in and empties the garbage while he is waiting for Rita to finish up :)

Bingo usually runs from September thru May - so give a call to volunteer or mark Tuesday Bingo on your calendar to come play - Doors open at 5 PM!!

See ya there!!!
