Annual Spring Dance with D.J. Mendoza Sound at the Spanish Lakes Clubhouse

By Herman Santa

On Saturday, April 24th, the members of the Spanish American Club, Inc. (SACI) hosted their monthly party.  With over 60 members and their guests in attendance, the group celebrated the Annual Spring Party.  This month’s hostess, Mary Figliola (Board Member) welcomed all the members and their guests.  The event to help raise funds for the scholarship was a great party.  The party started at 6:00 P.M. and continued until late at night as the group enjoyed a delicious buffet, birthday celebration, mingling, dancing, raffles and door prizes.

The members and their guests were entertained by Mendoza Sound- a popular D.J. that has been hired by the club for the monthly parties since last year.  Concluding the meal, the board collected items for our troops in the military and the scholarship committee raffled the door prizes, painting raffle, held the 50/50 raffle and the hat dance contest.  The winners were: Dorothy Mc Eing (Door Prize), Mary Byron (Door Prize), Nancy Rozon (Door Prize), Evie Cardona (Door Prize), Dorothy Mc Eing (Painting), Fred McEwan (50/50) and George Poda (Hat Dance Contest). After the raffles, D.J. Adan Mendoza played the song “Las Mañanitas” for the members to celebrate their birthdays during the month of April.

Annual Winter Dance with D.J Herman Santa at the residence of Bobby RodríguezPark Edge Clubhouse

By Herman Santa

The “Get Together” served as a platform to bring partners together and start the new year with a spirit of brotherhood, solidarity, and respect that should accompany us throughout the year.

On Saturday, January 22, the members of the “Spanish American Club, Inc.” delighted their palates with fine Latin food and various desserts prepared by the members themselves. Guests and attendees enjoyed the entire evening at the “Club House,” where Bobby and Lilly Rodríguez’s aunt lives in the Park Edge neighborhood of Port St. Lucie.

This server brought the music repertoire, and with the club’s sound system, I got everyone dancing with my hot rhythm. It was a spectacular and unforgettable night. I thank Bobby and Lilly for the first “Get Together” of the year and for their initiative benefiting the club.

During a break, the Board presented Marisol Gómez, one of the winners of this year scholarship, the raffled the door prizes, the Fifty Fifty and held the hat dance contest.  Winners of the door prizes, hat dance contest and 50/50 were: Virginia Feliciano (Door Prize), Isa Bryson (Door Prize), Rose Brancaccio (Door Prize), Coleen Gagkowski (Door Prize), Karen Diamond (Hat Dance Contest) and Linda Manzanares (50/50).  The members and their guests having their birthdays during March Fe Vallderuten, Rose Brancaccio and Tito Delgado were asked to come up and stand near the cake and the D.J. while the rest of the members sang “Las Mañanitas” when the D.J. played the song.  Thank you Chuck and Sandy for hosting the party.
