PRESIDENT'S LETTER:    JULY 2025

Hi CSOC Members,

This has been a hot summer so far, but lots of cool activities are in the works for July. Barbara Waskom has planned some great activities.  The ones remaining for the month of July include: Juke Box Bingo, Music on Main, Voyager Deep Sea Dolphin Cruise and the Big M Casino. That's a fun line-up, so please go to the website and sign up for those that you would enjoy.

A big thank you to Marie Sarich and George Velez for organizing the June activities.  A great time was had by all.  Pictures will be on the Website and Facebook. 

Grey Culbreth, our club's vice president, is organizing the August activities. Grey has done a great job  finding activities that should appeal to all who love entertainment and we all love to be entertained!! Grey has planned: LaBelle Amie Vineyards, a Magic Show at Broadway at the Beach, a play at the Theater of the Republic and Music on Main.  Check the website and be sure to sign up for the events by the deadlines posted. Some are ticketed events and you will need to either get your tickets ahead or reserve your spot by the deadline posted. 

Our fall 2025 trip bus trip to Nashville  has been canceled as we did not have enough signed up to make our minimum.  As John stated in his email to those who registered, the trip deposit checks will be shredded. We always welcome ideas for trips, so if you have any ideas,  be sure to talk with our travel chairman, John Schwartz. Our fall 2026 trip to Portugal is fully booked (42 people).  Pricing for the trip will come at a later date when the airlines releases its pricing information.  

We will have our July, August and September club meetings in Shelter # 3 at the Myrtle Beach State Park. In order for us to plan for  food  you must sign up for our monthly meeting by the deadline date. Like our events, if you cannot come for some reason, please go online and cancel your registration. 

Peggy Christie, our club secretary, has devoted time and talent to updating the guide for general member information as well as how to use our website to register and cancel registration for our meetings and events.  I am attaching the guide to this email. Please make a copy of this so you have it handy to help you understand all that this club has to offer and how to take advantage of all the great events. 

Please be sure that you download the membership form, fill it out, attach a check and get it to Karen McCurry before August 15. This will cover your membership for June 1, 2025 through May 31, 2026. 

Thank you for reading this email and the attachment.  This is your club, so please continue to do your part to enjoy events and contribute in any way that you can.

Sincerely,

Annie Laurie Lehman

President Elect
