ACTIVITIES
Presidents' message
April showers bring May flowers—and Newcomers are out to
enjoy the sun! We have several monthly activities to enjoy, and
fun things to do around town (see below).
In April, TGIF will be at Vicki Oldberg’s house, and the date is
April 17. As usual, bring a dish to share, and your own drinks.
Carpool if possible.
Book club will be held via Zoom on April 9; the book is “Every
Living Thing” by Jason Roberts.
As always, Investment group, Legacies, Mah-Jongg, and Bridge
continue as usual. Styling information is provided in the monthly
newsletter. Stitch and Chat and Genealogy are currently in hiatus.
Many garden tours are happening in our area in April and May. My
favorite is the Gamble Gardens tour, happening April 24 and 25.
As many of you know, Gamble Gardens offers five private garden
tours during these days. There are also shopping experiences,
consisting of the Marketplace featuring local vendors, a sale of
vintage items they call an Over The Garden Fence sale, and a
