The season has reached a stopping point but not over....

This past week brought two events - we had a wonderful pot luck Easter Dinner on Sunday the 5th of April which was well attended and as usual the park people provided some wonderful food.

We had a wonderful crowd!





Last evening we had a last Wednesday Happy Hour and a special occasion!

It was a birthday celebration and a time to gather one last time and share travel plans and promises to see everyone in the fall. Several people including myself are heading out this week. We has a wonderful crowd and Carmine outdid himself with a table full of great food for everyone.

March 28th - Cooks Night Off - Chili Cook-Off

Our last official Saturday night dinner for the season - we celebrate and thank our wonderful Kitchen crew for the many Saturday Night meals they prepared all season with a Cook Crew Night Off. The park residents open up their kitchens and we have a wonderful Chili Dinner and Cook-Off. Of course there was also fresh bread and salad and ice cream for dessert.
