Club will take short break after holiday party
SUNSHINE CLUB
The Sunshine Club will host a holiday party this Friday, Dec. 16, from 10 a.m.-1 p.m. in Clubhouse 3, Room 2. The club will also celebrate its anniversary during the party.
The party is for those who have RSVPed and includes a catered Korean buffet-style lunch from the restaurant Water Mills and Rice Cake in Buena Park. People are welcome to bring dessert to share.
This is the club’s first Christmas party since the pandemic and members responded quickly to the invitation. Due to the staff shortage at the restaurant, only 50 members can attend the gathering.
The party will start with a brief catch-up of community affairs with a time for questions and answers. Sunshine Club members will then enjoy a social hour over marinated teriyaki beef, mixed tempura, glass noodles called japchae, vegetables chop suey, brown rice and kimchi included in the catered buffet.
It is the Sunshine Club’s tradition to take a holiday group photo for souvenirs before the party is over.
The Sunshine Club invited the Hui O Hula dancers to perform at the party to enhance the holiday spirit.
Over the past year the Sunshine Club also invited many community leaders and administrative supervisors to its weekly meeting. Each guest speaker provided an opportunity for residents to learn beneficial informationabout living in a senior community and what resources are available to them.
The Sunshine Club will take a holiday break following the party. It will meet again on Jan. 6, without a guest speaker. The meeting will serve as a way for club members to catch up after the three week break.
The first official meeting of the new year will be held on Jan. 13 with GRF Security Services Director Victor Rocha.
The Sunshine Club began on Jan. 12, 2012, with the mission to “Build Bridges for a Brighter Leisure World”, and to help all residents in the community get along and to get the best out of living in Leisure World by learning how to use available information.
