Get Together with music at the Kino and Gladys Vélez residence in Port St. Lucie

By Herman Santa

On Saturday, June 9th, selected for the feast, could not have been better. The 3rd “Get Together” of the year 2000, after we all managed to recover from the numerous club parties, brought us the necessary spirit to return to the revelry.

Thus, the interesting group of friends and acquaintances responded to the kind invitation of Kino and Gladys Vélez at their elegant residence in Port St. Lucie, to kick off the summer with a fabulous open house, where we enjoyed the finest sparkling wine and all kinds of drinks, as well as the most delicious dishes and desserts; for those who were on a diet, that night they broke it.

Neither the heat, which at times brought no breeze, dampened the joy of the members who were on the terrace savoring the delicious buffet. Meanwhile, the hosts, Kino and Gladys Vélez, went above and beyond to attend to their numerous guests, many of whom had the opportunity to meet new members and invitees. We must thank the Vélez family for their generosity and for inviting us to their home, as we had a cheerful and fun evening.

Mrs. Toñita Donbroski of Port St. Lucie hosted a private party for the children of the “Victory Children’s Home” at her pottery and arts studio. We can see the happy group enjoying a very cheerful party. Toñita is from Puesto Rico and has been living in this city for 22 years.
