Rear Commodore's Report
If you missed FWYC Movie Night on August 3 and Karaoke night on
August 9, you missed some good times! For movie night, the crowd
warmed up with the family-friendly "Captain Ron" and closed out the
evening with "Wind." Many thanks to Tommy and the team -- the pizza
bar and caramel popcorn were big hits.
...and Karaoke night?? It was IN-SANELY fun! We had a professional
Karaoke team, Tim and Rusty Morinelli, come in and run the show. They
brought a music library of well over 10,000 songs. We heard members sing
songs from every genre and time period...from Frank Sinatra to Bruno
Mars to the Pointer Sisters. My personal favorite was "Soul Man." All
the men in the room sang it Blues Brothers-style while sporting cool
shades! Special thanks to the bar staff - the drink special of the evening,
"Liquid Courage" was popular and definitely help a few folks get over their
stage fright. If you didn't make it out for the event, be sure to check out
the pictures/videos on FWYC's page on Facebook. Many thanks to CeCe
Stoldt and several other members for capturing the event.
Looking forward to this month's Labor Day Potluck on Monday,
September 2. We'll have lawn games and competitions for best BBQ Ribs
and dessert. Also, Rob Romans is coming back for another great evening
of music in the lounge on Friday, September 13. Rob's bringing his voice,
guitar and a great repertoire of cross-genre songs from the 60's to today's
classics.
Coming in October is our annual Halloween Party on Saturday, October
26. We're flashing back to the '80's. Break out your legwarmers and
shoulder-padded suits, we're going to do it up, Dallas-style and dance the
night away with music from Flash Flood. Jackie Chapman is taking the
lead on the party. We'll have planning meetings starting mid-September.
If you're interested in participating, let Jackie or me know. More party
information to follow!
See you around the club!!
Cheers,
Gina
