We wish we had a magic lamp and the genie in it would rise and make this pandemic go away. The best we can do is wear a mask and social distance from each other. Since the Master Board decided that clubs cannot meet until after November, the Social Singles Board has decided that the 2020 dues will be automatically transferred to 2021 for all paid members. If you have paid for 2020 and want a refund, please call our treasurer, Maggie Kline, at 797-0694. Barbara Willens has started a new Facebook Group, "Sun Lakes Social Singles." We are hoping that if you are on Facebook you will add your comments so we can keep in touch with each other in all ways possible. Our thanks go out to our President, Joan Blumenfeld, for calling our membership to keep in touch and put a smile on our faces. She will continue to do this until we can be together again. Joan came across the following which is so apropos for this time in history. It reads as follows: "We are like redwoods… we are old… but we are tall. We are wise, we have gained wisdom in our long lives. We nurture others helping them to grow and develop into mature "trees" themselves. Our roots intertwine with each other. We in turn are strengthened by the people in our lives while providing support for them as well. So this month, let's be a tree… the redwood tree." If you know of anyone who is sick or needs cheering up, please contact Barbara Willens at (951) 769-0912 and she will send them a card. Spreading Sunshine Young at Heart The Young at Heart Board members hope all Sun Lakers are staying safe and healthy. Due to the uncertainty regarding the coronavirus pandemic and related county and state-mandated restrictions, we have decided to cancel all events planned for this year and roll over all membership dues to next year. If restrictions are lifted sufficiently to allow us to safely hold an event later in the year, we will notify members by email. | SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | SEPTEMBER 2020 | 17 Social Singles Just in case: Check with your club contact to confirm meeting place, date, and time.
