A grand day to celebrate.
What a turnout at our July 4 festival.....or should I say FEAST. We had a potluck luncheon attended by 111 residents and guests. Only 64 of them had pre-registered but luckily with it being a pot luck, we had plenty of food. The park provided us with brats to serve the crowd. Thank you to Denny Miller and Glo Mason for standing out in the triple digit temps to cook them on the grill. Thank you to Barb Poole for hostessing and "directing traffic" and to Elaine Paulson for leading us in song to the National Anthem. It's always fun to gather and chat with friends. I'll post plenty of pictures so you can scan the crowd.
So much delicious food!
Our next event is this Friday, July 8, when John McGuire will be a guest speaker. John is a champion for economic growth in Casa Grande. He reports results of city council and the planning commission meetings to citizenry on Facebook. It's not necessary to sign up for his presentation. We'll just set up 100 chairs. I for one am anxious to hear about new business and community growth. Meeting is at 2:00 in the SanTan room. (time error on the monthly calendar) 2:00 this Friday.
Ray & Sherry Montijo will be our hosts for the event. They request some special seating. Therefore the first two tables closest to the food in all 3 rows will be reserved for Palm Creek residents and their +1 that have mobility and/or vision difficulties.
SUMMER PIZZA PARTY
Dusty Brown is hosting another Karaoke event in the ballroom Friday, July 15, from 4:00 - 7:00 pm. There will be an art raffle with proceeds going to Marsha's Food Drive. Bring a pizza to share. BYOB.
