Tis the Season….
Now that the turkey and trimmings are all digested, it is time to turn our attention to the Christmas season. As you know the Club supports many different charities throughout the year, and this time of year, we turn our attention to the Cerebral Palsy Association of Nassau County. CP Nassau provides services to children and adults with disabilities. We have decorated a tree with beachy/tropical/nautical themed decorations that we have named “Son of a Son of a Sailor”. It is at “The Wharf” on Vanderbilt Blvd in Oakdale if you want to see it in person, or go to the following website to see photos. https://go.rallyup.com/
How can you help? This beautifully decorated tree is being raffled off to one lucky winner. Raffle ticket bundles begin at $10. You will get the whole thing!!! (tree, tree topper, decorations, tree skirt etc). If you want to support the charity but aren’t interested in the tree (huh?) there is an option to make a one-time donation as well. Winner will be announced on 12/9/22.

Thanks for your support!

What is Pardi-Gras?
Started in November, 1997, this annual event has been attracting revelers from around the country for a "tropical party" ever since. It was moved from November to January in the third year, and has remained there since. The year 2023 will mark the 26th annual rendition of Pardi-Gras.
Pardi-Gras caters to people who love original music, and good times. There is a heavy dose of local, regional, and national "Trop-Rock" music involved. (Think Jimmy Buffett, Zac Brown, Kenny Chesney) The event is open to anyone, however, and you don't have to be a member of any formal group to participate in Pardi-Gras.
Over the years, Pardi-Gras has evolved into a five day event. The party features plenty of live music, as well as other fun activities unique to the French Quarter. Browsing through pictures of previous years' events will give you a pretty clear picture of what Pardi-Gras is all about.
We invite you to join us next January, in New Orleans, for Pardi-Gras 2023. Come find out why we call it, "The Ultimate French Quarter Party"!
