We were talking to a neighbor last night about our community. Now this neighbor is 55 and still works full-time , not your typical resident. He had some good suggestions. It seems we have a pool table and ping pong table in the clubhouse. Who knew? Maybe we could get people interested in those activities.
The community library has lots of puzzles but if you try to put one together in the clubhouse it can't be left on the table because someone will come along and put it away. Our neighbor thinks there's a card table that could be used for puzzles, and then left in a small room next to the large dining area. If true, we can start a puzzle and leave it for others to work on.
I would love to have WiFi at the clubhouse. We need to research that. If we did, then it would be much easier to teach computer use. As it is now, I would have to invite people to my house. I don't think I'm ready for that. I guess this will have to wait.
Since I like to sew, maybe we could start a sewing group for people like me who aren't interested in quilting. If we don't have someone willing to teach, we could help each other. I'll have to find out how the quilting group organizes their meetings. Do they bring their machines to the clubhouse or meet at someone's home?. And do they even use machines or is it all done by hand?
What else would I like to do? Cooking? Maybe something informal could be organized. It wouldn't even have to be cooking but swapping recipes, diets, healthy eating information, etc. If we did decide to cook, we could cook something at home and bring samples to the meeting, or just report on how the cooking went. If we had a brave soul, maybe we could have a cooking demo once in awhile. That would be fun.
Maybe I've made a good start after all. This could turn out to be fun.
