Cheers is a social club open to members from Sun Lakes, Springfield, SunBird, and Solera communities. Our current 210 members invite you to become a part of the Cheers family, whether you are a year-round or a seasonal resident. The club offers many activities and programs, including social time, wine tasting, dining out, book club, games, golfing, and group travel opportunities.
With your $20 annual dues you will be provided access to the members-only website and calendar of activities. The Cheers weekly social meets on Thursday at Sun Lakes Oakwood Country Club from 4 to 5:30 p.m. The meeting is a forum for meeting new friends, visiting with current ones, and sharing club announcements and upcoming activities. Visitors and potential new members are welcome, without obligation to join. Weekly meetings are followed with opportunity for group dining at a local restaurant.
Below are some of our group activities:
Golf: Golf is going well with the Cheer’s group. We have played SunBird, Bear Creek, and Sun Lakes Country Club in the past weeks.
Stan Fark has done well, with a couple of birdies. Chris Harrington has managed four birdies in the last few outings. Leanne Weber also managed a nice birdie. Wende Bunting plays every week, and the improvement in her game shows it.
We will be playing mostly the Sun Lakes courses the next few weeks. Please feel free to join us for a fun morning on the links. We play Friday morning. If interested in joining our group and/or receiving our group emails, feel free to contact Keith Mackenzie at 248-766-9520 or [email protected]. This is a Cheers members-only activity.
Cheers Birthday Celebration: We celebrate members’ birthdays every six months with dinner, a cash bar, entertainment, and a raffle for prizes. The date for our next celebration of January through June birthdays will be determined soon. To facilitate clubhouse reservations, advance registration with a $20 fee is preferred. Admission at the door will be $25. All Cheers members are welcome to participate, not just those celebrating a birthday.
Hand and Foot: Members gather at the Oakwood ballroom for Hand and Foot card game every Tuesday at 6 p.m. To better coordinate game tables of four, it is appreciated if you would RSVP attendance to MaryAnn Fazio at 480-277-5699.
