Re: The St. Patrick’s Day Luncheon and Golf Cart Parade
We would like to take this opportunity to say “Thank You” to the residents of C V for supporting our
luncheon and to those who took part in the Golf Cart Parade. A Special thanks to all those individuals
that helped us to make this luncheon a success; with set up, ticket collection, the 50/50 raffle, serving of
food ,and clean up. We would not have been able to accomplish this without you.
This year we had a great turn out for the Golf Cart Parade. We paraded our golf carts up and down the
streets of C.V. to the cheers of spectators along the route. The winning Golf Cart was awarded to Larry
and Olga Jacques, Santa FeTrail . Congratulations.
This was a sold out event, this year and we apologize if there were any individuals that were turned away.
We ask that next year, you PLEASE read your News Letters and get your tickets early. Please do not
wait until the day before or morning of the event. We had a cutoff date for ticket sales so that we could
plan on the amount of food to purchase in order to prepare for this luncheon.
We look forward to next year, 2018, making this the 3rdannual St. Patrick’s Day celebration.
Our Sincere Thanks.
Ed and Cindy

Thank you Stevie Pendell, for your help and guidance in editing the Carriage
