52 | SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | JANUARY 2023 | Couples Golf This time of year is for families and friends to gather and celebrate the blessings we have received throughout the year. There is food, fun, music, and games. Presents, laughter, and good cheer are had by all. We are aware that the holidays are often the most difficult times to endure. There are widows and widowers dealing with the loss of their soulmates. There is acute sickness and chronic illness, debilitating pain, and loneliness. Some cannot afford to revel in the retail wonderland. They can be vulnerable and fearful of the crowds and potential harm or judgment that awaits them. Many people with simply avoid this time of year altogether and stay home hidden and alone. YOU can be their light that will guide them through this sometimes complicated time of year. The Couples Golf Club, and Sun Lakes in general, is filled with people who brighten the world. Your smiles, acknowledgment, encouraging words, and positive actions are felt throughout the community. This is just a friendly reminder that we are here for a good time, so be kind, don't judge, and continue doing what you do best — making people smile and feel loved. Congratulations to the winners of the November Turkey Shoot. First place: Kris Terrell, Pam D'Arca, Tom Keheley and Jim Close. Second place: Sandra Howell, Sally Skinner, Amanda Fitzgerald and Gary Heading. Next year's fees to join Sun Lakes Couples Golf club will be $55 per person and $1 per person per game! Bueño deal! You can pick up your application at the Pro Shop. Happy New Year! Stay warm and amazing! Lady Executive Golf Women's Golf Welcome to Lady Executive golfers (LEGS)!
