Monthly Get Together at the residence of John and Gertrudis Avilés in Port St. Lucie

By Herman Santa

On Sunday, February 26, the first “Get Together” of the year was held at the home of John and Gertrudis Aviles in Port St. Lucie. The party began with the monthly Board of Directors meeting one hour before the guests arrived. After the meeting, members and guests started with cocktails so that everyone could socialize before dinner and dancing began.

A large number of members and invited guests gathered there to enjoy the delicious Latin food prepared by the members themselves. After dinner, many members danced in the spacious “Florida Room” to the compact disc music provided by the Aviles family. The Aviles family had prepared a buffet that included roasted pork, rice with pigeon peas, black beans, pickled green bananas, pasta, and other favorite dishes of Hispanics. To complement the meal, they also had desserts and ice cream. We had a joyful time, thanks to the Aviles family for their hospitality and for lending their residence for the club’s monthly meeting.
