Recreation and Social Activities – Sue Hensler
Happy Hour in the Park
It’s time to dust off your picnic basket and cooler and join your friends and meet new neighbors at the first-of-the-season “Happy Hour in the Park”! This fun, very informal event happens the third Friday of each month. April’s event will be held Friday, April 19, from 5:00 p.m. to whenever at the POA pavilion, next to the pool. BYOB and any food items for the “sharing table” and enjoy an early evening get-together for conversation and camaraderie. There are no organized plans - just a great opportunity to meet and greet new neighbors you may not know and connect with those you do.
The Lord's Pantry/Porch – Frank Pritchett
Thanks so much to the
community for donating 279 pounds of food in March to support the Lord's Pantry
in Shallotte. Your efforts are much appreciated! The picture attached shows the
goods that were delivered. There are bins at the entrance to the POA clubhouse
where non-perishable foods can be donated at any time. Our next
"porch" collection will be from Monday, April 15, through Wednesday,
April 17, with available delivery locations within the community announced
shortly before.
Chair Aerobics – Judy Chicka
Classes will be Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from
9:00 – 10:00 a.m. at the POA clubhouse. Bring your Weights! (1-2 lbs. recommended)
and a bottle of water. See you there!
Tennis – Joyce Disano
Join us for
open tennis starting at 8:30 a.m. Monday, Wednesday and Friday at the Carolina
Shores tennis courts. Wear proper court shoes. Hope to see you there.
Book Discussion Group – Susie Riggs
The
Book Discussion group met on Friday, March 15. We had a fascinating discussion
about two books, both nonfiction and both having to do with water-related
disasters. Ruthless Tide by Al Roker is the harrowing account of the Johnstown
flood of 1889, and The Wager by David Grann tells the story of the shocking
events surrounding the 1741 wreck of the British ship the HMS Wager, which
met its doom while rounding Cape Horn. Survival and man’s inhumanity to man
were strong themes in both books, and most members felt that they were
captivating reads.
Our next meeting will be held in the large room of the POA clubhouse on Friday, April 19, at 10:00 a.m. We will be discussing Carolina Moonset, a mystery set in Beaufort, South Carolina by Matt Goldman.
Garden Club – Mary Conover
Carolina Shores Garden Club members were
treated to a presentation by John H. Harrelson from the NC Wildlife Resources
Commission on March 13. He explained that residential development negatively
impacts alligators by infringing upon their habitats. Humans and pets should
always maintain a safe distance from alligators and respect them as part of our
ecosystem. It is against the law to feed alligators because they will become
more comfortable and expect feedings. Alligators have existed, in some form,
for at least 8 million years.
At the April 10 meeting, garden club member, Sherry Godfrey, will demonstrate a unique way of planting, Kokedama and Kusamon. There will also be a plant exchange. Members may bring as many as three plants, labeled with the plant’s name and care instructions, and trade for other plants. The plants may be indoor or outdoor plants. Also, tickets for the annual scholarship luncheon will be available. The luncheon will be held at Brunswick Plantation on May 8 at noon with a cash bar opening at 11:30. If the weather allows, we will be seated on the patio. Tickets are $24 and will be available at the April meeting.
New members are always welcome at the garden club. The meetings are held on the second Wednesday of each month, and annual dues are $10. Meetings always include a guest speaker, a plant raffle and a social hour. This year, the club is raffling a quilt also. Tickets are sold at every event and the winner will be chosen at the May luncheon. Please contact Mary Conover at 703-409-9612 with any questions.
Pickleball – Rick Griffith & Sue Berger
INTRO to
Pickleball Class on Saturday, April 13, at 10:30 a.m. at the pickleball courts

paddles and balls to use. Wear tennis shoes and comfortable clothing.

Both love to be active and walk and swim and they previously bowled. They moved here in mid-January and are thrilled to be near the beach and can’t wait for the weather to be warm enough to go shelling. Sheila ran the Sample department for a Canadian based industrial soap company called Deb soaps. Darlene was a secretary/receptionist for Eagle Transport. Both have children, grandchildren, step families, and other siblings. They are sure to have visitors frequently!
