Hi everyone,
We are back in town and while you are wearing winter jackets and feeling cold, we left NY in 22 degrees with a blizzard on the way, so we are thrilled. Here are some reminders and new information:
Golden Corral, this Thursday, 4:30 PM. RSVP to LynnSevan@aol.com
Boomer Meeting, 3 PM, Feb 17 in the Clubhouse, Classroom B. I have had some feedback that there was solicitation of private enterprises at the last meeting. This is unacceptable. Do not bring any brochures or private agendas to our meeting. This is a social group only not for any business purpose.
Day trip to the Morikami Japanese Gardens scheduled for
Friday, February 19.
The cost for a senior or a member of our group would be $11.72 (Includes tax) which would be paid at the door upon entry. You do not have to sign up before, although that would be most helpful to us in case of any changes.
DINING OPTIONS
The open-air cafe on the terraces overlooks the tranquil gardens and serves a Pan-Asian inspired menu from 11 am to 3 pm. Special arrangements can be made for 15 or more. There is also an air-conditioned area.
The Cafe serves a variety of appetizer items such as sweet potato tempura for $4.25, miso soup for $1.95, cold tofu for $3.25, house salad of mixed greens at $2.95, vegetable gyoza which are 8 pieces of vegetable and tofu dumplings at $4.95, and even 2 egg rolls with for $3.50. There are sushi rolls ranging in price from $4.00-5.95, with a variety from california roll, fresh salmon roll, tempora shrimp rolls and more. Dessert and beverages are also available. We have found that the soup, salad, and dumplings or sushi make a lovely lunch.
They have a paid in advance bento box lunch which costs $16. There is a charm about this luncheon, BUT it is expensive, must be paid in advance, and there is no refund.
DIRECTIONS
Upon exiting from Century Village, turn RIGHT to the Turnpike heading south. Continue to Exit 81, Atlantic Avenue. Turn LEFT at West Atlantic, 806W, and RIGHT at Carter Rd/Jog Rd. RIGHT turn on Morikami Park Rd and continue to entrance. Maximum driving time should be 40 minutes. We suggest carpooling to increase socialization and save gas.
RSVP
The Morikami needs to know the number of those attending, especially if people are staying on for lunch, so they can reserve an area for us. Please contact one of the coordinators listed below if you plan to join, and if you plan to stay on for lunch.

New and Exciting Event
Roger Dean Stadium, the METS VS. MARLINS, Monday, March 8th. This is for loge seating with seats that have backs.
If you are interested, go to Temple Anshei Sholom (ASAP) in the Village (next to Hastings) during the hours of 8 - 11:30 am., give them a check made out to Anshei Sholom Men's Club for $36 a person.
Brunch is included and will be served at the temple at 10:30 am that morning. We will have to carpool or drive individually to the Stadium which is in Jupiter. You do not have to let me know that you are going but I hope to see many of you there as I know there was interest in a Baseball game.
See you all soon.
Until then,
Lynn
