Get together at Prado family’s in the Lake Lucie Clubhouse clubhouse

By Herman Santa

Their partners encourage one to socialize with them, the compact disc music (and occasionally live) invites dancing, enjoyment, and shedding any discomfort one may have. And for “The Friendship Group,” as some partners call the “Spanish American Club, Inc,” it is important that everyone, including guests, has a good time, setting aside problems and the exhaustion of daily life.

The fresh air of these days, along with the pleasant company of club members and guests, contributed to making the evening a very special occasion, as we were all comfortable, sharing and enjoying various delicacies of our countries’ gastronomy that delighted the guests.

The partners and guests began to arrive after 4 in the afternoon. The Prado family welcomed us at the “Clubhouse” of the “Lake Lucy” neighborhood, where they greeted us with a smile and a hug. Then, the party started with cocktails, appetizers, camaraderie, dinner, dessert, and dancing. The “Get Together” culminated late at night with bohemian music. The highlight of the evening was the Colombian lawyer Daniel Acevedo, who entertained us with his guitar and sang beautiful Colombian melodies from the past.

Some of the songs that Daniel performed were “La pollera colorá,” “Negrita,” “Se va el caiman,” “Noche de Cartagena,” and “Cenizas.” We really had a great time. Thanks to the Board of Directors, to Jorge, and to Teresita Prado for another party full of flavor. I suggest to my friends that if they enjoy dancing, good food, and camaraderie, they should join the club because they will have joyful moments.
