Lynyrd Skynyrd never had a song reach Number 1 on the Billboard Top 100. Sweet Home Alabama is their only song to make the Top 10 at Number 8 and stayed there for 17 weeks. If you enjoy their music, plan to attend the Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute concert May 31 in the Ballroom. The program begins at 7 pm and the doors will open at 6 pm. Tickets may be purchased from the receptionist in the Main Clubhouse for $15 (checks only). You will receive a ticket at the time of purchase. Your ticket must be presented at the door to obtain entrance into the event. If you have any ideas for future events that you think everyone would enjoy, please leave your suggestions in the box in the Main Clubhouse by the reception desk marked "Management Suggestions." We look forward to your input. Recreation Advisory The Sun Lakes Library Committee is exploring possibly starting a book group that the library would sponsor. Several ideas have been proposed for what such a group might look like: 1. Discussion of a book that everyone has read (no particular topical focus). 2. Reading and discussing in a specific genre (historical fiction, mystery, romance, English or American classics, nonfiction, etc.). 3. Readers come together to share about whatever books they've been reading(no common reading). 4. "Author showcase" program where Southern California authors talk about their books. 5. "Author showcase" followed by reading and discussing one of the author's books. If any of these options sound interesting, call or text Peter Fernandez at (626) 379- 7972 or Laurel Stanley at (585) 378-0803. Library Advisory
