The lunch connoisseurs gathered at the Longhorn Steakhouse on State Road 56, near Tampa Premium Outlets, on Aug. 11 for their monthly lunch and to celebrate Sandy Lindke’s 79th birthday,
Al and Sandy were the hosts for this month. A nice crowd of 38 Grand Horizons residents had a great lunch and lots of laughter.
A dessert of pretty decorated cupcakes was furnished by the birthday girl.
I received this information from Sandy, as she was kind enough to tell me about their good time.
Then, since it was near the mall, I am sure that many people went shopping. It turned out to be a full day, and our thanks go out to Al and Sandy for arranging the luncheon.
A large contingent of Grand Horizons residents joined together on Aug. 12 to give Adrianne Ayres a pizza party and good wishes on her move to join family in California.
Ed Goldstein, Jim Leitzke and Sandy Lindke spoke a few words of appreciation and praise for her dedication to the HOA Board, the Social Club and the people of Grand Horizons.
The party was in the community center, and Adrianne will be greatly missed by all.
The Social Club furnished a variety of pizzas, while the residents provided the friendly atmosphere.
Once again, Sandy Lindke was nice enough to provide the information and several pictures.
Since Marty and I were in Connecticut and unable to attend, our best wishes go out to Adrianne on her move. She will be missed by so many.
A potluck was held Aug. 13 in the Community Center. The following was related to me by Sandy Lindke.
Sandy mentioned that the “Just Because” potluck was hosted by Nancy Huey, and 77 residents came to have a good time. They all brought a dish to share and enjoy with Nancy’s tasty sloppy joes.
The food table was loaded with quite a few homemade dishes. There were plenty of salads, baked beans, German potato salad, deviled eggs, sausages, meatballs, and just about any kind of dessert you would want. No one left hungry.
Grand Horizons residents enjoyed an afternoon of good food and friendship.
Nancy had a helpful crew for setting up and cleaning up. The crew consisted of Nancy Huey, Cheryl Leone, Eileen Goldstein, and Jim and Judi Leitzke.
Our thanks go to all who helped out and to Nancy Huey for arranging it.
