Welcome to this week's news and views from the best over 50s resort on the planet (including Paris).
HOC XMAS DINNERS
Another success story for GemLife BI. A huge thanks to everyone who helped on the three nights, especially to Janine, Jeanne and all their helpers, the bar staff, HOC and all the residents who took home tablecloths to wash and iron. What would we do without you.
200th TRIVIA
On Wednesday 18 December it will be the 200th Trivia, and coincidentally the last trivia for 2024. I am thoroughly convinced that at least one team (maybe every team) will score 100% in one of the rounds - MUSIC FAVOURITES.
What I do know is that there will be AT LEAST 3 x $200 cash prizes. So if you Find The Gem (worth $1,000) and grab one of the $200 prizes you will be richer to the tune of $1,200. You have got to be in it to win it.
Trivia will resume in 2025 on Wednesday 8 January - General Knowledge.
BINGO XMAS PARTY
All past and current players are invited to attend a Bingo Xmas Party on Monday 16 December at 11:30am with Bingo to follow at 1:30pm. Bring a plate to share and BYO drinks.
Karin and Karen are calling their last games and will be saying farewell after 5 years.
PROSPECTA UTILITIES
Our good friends from Prospecta will be here on Tuesday 17 December to help us all with Prospecta Invoices and how best to utilise their website. Start time will be high noon. Come along and have all your questions answered.
XMAS RAFFLE & CAROLS
Vikki and Cath will be doing a MONSTER end of year raffle to be drawn in the clubhouse on Friday 20 December. On the same night, our resort will be putting on a spectacular talent show. FREE Xmas Treats, Solo Artists, Dancers, Singing Gems. LED Carol Candles will be available for a $1 donation. Get there early to grab the best seats. The raffle girls apologise for the delay in getting your tickets back to you. This was as a result of unforeseen circumstances that put them out of action for a few days. So don't panic - you will get your raffle tickets in plenty of time.
TENORI Sat 21 December
The fabulous Tenori are back once again for a Christmas special. Only a few tickets left, $20 per person - and that includes a free drink - astonishing value !!
This is one Christmas show that you do not want to miss.
Contact Vikki at villa 222 or 0407 103 381
