March is bringing in the end to our season. We will have our St. Patrick’s Day dance on March 19th. The caterers we used in the past are no longer in business, so we will be having a dance only. Music will be provided by Tammy Truitt.  The cost is $10 per person.  Tickets may be purchased at Saturday coffee. 

 The Entertainment Committee decided not to hold their annual pool party this season. We felt with the addition of our Pine Lakes neighbors it would not be fair to use the deck space that would be needed to play the games. 

The committee is already looking at entertainment for the 2024 season. We will keep you informed as we are able to book the acts.

 Keep checking the www.lakefairwayshoa.com website for updates on our bookings.

We appreciate everyone’s support this year. We look forward to having a full season of events next year.
