MEN'S CLUB

    Another busy and successful month for Lake Fairways Men’s Club

Poolside Lunch was just complete on 12Mar2023, Dick Hayes and his crew were outstanding again, some of our key cooks were on the disabled list, like all-star cook Bob Seeley due to his health (everyone is wishing him a quick and full recovery). They probably cooked everything we had in the kitchen and everyone came to enjoy it.

The support of the Golf Tournaments was outstanding for providing food, it was 3 days of serving the golfers and the fans behind the 18thGreen. We had fun and all that came by were very satisfied. Several people said this was the best burger they ever had, Jim Blanchard and Ron Pessa can verify. It was a pleasure being able to be part of it along with all that the Golf Ass. does for Lake Fairways. Thank you to the guys and girls that helped.

We finally agreed on new polo Shirts for the Men’s Club and they are ordered; it is currently in production. We also just received the new Pancake Griddle this week, so even though we had great success with the old grills, we will be using them one last time in March at the end of the month. We will be ready for next season with the new grill.

Just to recap the Nite at the Races, George Files and his team did an amazing job, the place was packed, and everyone had a great time. 

As well, you will get the update on the Appreciation dinner going on 19Mar with Mission BBQ and Tammy Truitt hosting the music in the next month.

Wishing everyone a happy Easter and looking forward to the last Men’s Club meeting on 18Apr. We will have a new Board at that time and wishing them all the success for the upcoming season.

Lake Fairways Men’s Club serving and working for the community In January, come out and join us.

Poolside Lunch has been so much fun to get out on Sunday’s and enjoy the weather, water, and meet our wonderful neighbors. We just love being able to cook, serve, eat, and of course have some fun. We are waiting on January 15th to be a complete success even with the weather being cool and looking forward to February. Look for the signs.

Today the talk is all about Trash and Treasure, I hope you found you way down to the Clubhouse. The Men and Women working together is so encouraging to me, for one I get to work with my wife, and secondly, we get to see Lake Fairways volunteers really doing a lot of work. Judy Carson hit another HR with the teamwork of Dora Dissmeyer and Carol Mitchell. Dick Hayes as president is our fearless leader setting the example of getting things done with a great team of volunteers from Hauling, to serving, to setting up, to taking down, and thank you to Hugh Mitchell and Vince Williams for saving the day getting the truck unloaded at Habitat for Humanity. We really appreciate the help of both the Men and Women coming together there was too many to name everyone.

Our next big activity for January that you will miss until next month’s article dates include 17Jan for the Men’s Group meeting and 21Jan for the Pancake Cake Breakfast.

After a wonderful Summer, and recovering from Hurricane, The Men’s Group hit the ground running with our first October Meeting. Dick Hayes led the meeting, with VP John Donahue, and new Treasurer John Spada, Bob Autilio has stepped down as Secretary and we are looking for someone to fill his shoes. Some topics addressed were, the Pool Lunch times to start at 11:00 and end at 1:00pm and adding to the menu having Double Burger, Sausage, or Hotdog with Chips & Soda for $8. Also, WWII Veteran’s will receive Lunch for Free at our events. We discussed getting new Polo Shirts and Bob Seeley will present the Designs for a vote in November. We will Investigate getting a Marque display for the LF Community. We discussed idea’s for using Veterans Funds for the future. 

We then had our first Pancake breakfast where everyone who attended was paid for by and anonymous donor, who wanted to do it for everyone going through the Hurricane after math. Thank you, everyone enjoyed it and we were lucky to have it with all the issues in the clubhouse after the storm.

We continued our Pool Side Lunches with two since our last article, one was pushed back a week waiting for the Pool to officially reopen, and Novembers today. Huge thank you to the team that puts in the time and effort, November 13th event we sold out on everything. Looks like we need to make bigger orders before the event. So many people have been so nice in coming out to enjoy the sun, pool, and the fellowship.

Very impressed at the job the men did supporting at the Craft fair this year, for Set-up, to Start-up, to Doughnuts and Coffee, then directly into Hot dogs chip & Soda, then to the big clean up at the end. I hope all the crafters enjoyed it as well as all those that attended it.

Special thanks to have the leadership of Dick Hayes back with us again.

This last 2 weeks we are also busy getting ready for the Thanksgiving Dinner for Nov 24th, Joan Robertson has been selling and collecting all the information for the tickets, seating, and dishes to pass. I am sure we will have a big turn out as we are getting 20 2o pound Turkey and signing up volunteers before the big event, of which we will already ate all the Turkey by the time you read this.

For December we want to invite everyone to join us for the December 17th Pancake Breakfast and December 20th Tuesday night meeting. To be sure we will announce the next Pool side lunch as we get into December.
