DECEMBER <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong>
NRC was established 45 years<br />
ago. The <strong>New</strong> <strong>Resident</strong> <strong>Club</strong><br />
(NRC) was established in 1967<br />
when Cape Coral was fairly<br />
new. Helen Peck, an early resident,<br />
believed Cape Coral<br />
needed a means for new residents<br />
to meet other new residents<br />
and find local merchants.<br />
She organized a monthly, hourlong<br />
coffee at the Yacht <strong>Club</strong>.<br />
The need for newcomers to meet<br />
and exchange ideas and friendships<br />
continues today as Cape<br />
Coral has grown to a city of<br />
about 170,000. And so the NRC<br />
has grown to allow new residents<br />
to enjoy the camaraderie<br />
and information the club provides.<br />
NRC supports Gift of Sight<br />
program (OneSight). Please<br />
bring used eyeglasses to the<br />
<strong>New</strong> <strong>Resident</strong> <strong>Club</strong>’s monthly<br />
meeting - a Gift of Sight box is<br />
provided on the activities table<br />
for your donation. The Gift of<br />
Sight Program (now OneSight)<br />
conducts clinics in developing<br />
countries where doctors and<br />
trained volunteers provide free<br />
eye exams and recycled eyewear<br />
to thousands of people in need.<br />
For more information, log on to:<br />
www.onesight.org.<br />
WE NEED YOU - YES, YOU!<br />
Please volunteer to help with the<br />
duties of the club! Sign up to Be<br />
a Greeter at the Dinner Dance<br />
NRC NOTES AND ANNOUNCEMENTS<br />
or Monthly Membership Meeting!<br />
Look for the Volunteer Signup<br />
Sheets on the tables! Perhaps you<br />
have time to stay a few minutes<br />
after the dance to Help Clean Up.<br />
If you have a knack for design,<br />
please Help Decorate for the next<br />
Dinner Dance! If you can help, see<br />
2nd Vice President Teresa<br />
Anderson at the General Meeting,<br />
or any Board Member.<br />
NRC is a Caring Center<br />
drop-off. Just a reminder that the<br />
<strong>New</strong> <strong>Resident</strong> <strong>Club</strong> has a continuous<br />
giving program which collects<br />
canned goods and non-perishables<br />
for the Cape Coral Caring Center<br />
for distribution to those in need.<br />
Please drop your donations in the<br />
box at the Yacht <strong>Club</strong>. All<br />
donations will be taken to the<br />
Cape Coral Caring Center for<br />
distribution. The wooden box is<br />
large and white, marked with RED<br />
lettering, It is located inside the<br />
Yacht <strong>Club</strong> doors.<br />
<strong>New</strong> Members are ALWAYS<br />

Later Gators<br />
<strong>December</strong>/January 2010: Later Gators<br />
Reporter: Pat Backhaus<br />
A big Thank You to Gail& Roger Novak for hosting an<br />
outstanding Scavenger Hunt.It sure was a great idea for<br />
something different as an activity. It was well thought out<br />
and planned. The Puffer Worms were hidden in 10 of<br />
Cape Coral's Parks. Groups were selected (no husband &<br />
Wife teams) and sent out in cars at designated times with<br />
their clues. Roses' team was the big winner and as you<br />
can see by John's pic (he is wearing some of the prizes)<br />
that a great time was had by all. Of course the party was<br />
continued back at the Novak's residence after the Hunt.<br />
There is never a shortage of fantastic food and spirits (not<br />
that we do much drinking - Ha Ha).<br />
Since many of our snowbirds were back, we had a large<br />
turnout for the Ladies Luncheon at Woody's Surfside. Of<br />
course, the Gators had to rearrange the furniture when we<br />
arrived so we could all sit together.Us Gators seem to get<br />
a second wind when our pals from up North are back in<br />
Paradise. Most of the Gators attended the Comedy Night<br />
at Anthony's on the 20th. We can't seem to get our fill of<br />
partying as several us are planning on joining the Palm<br />
Breezes for a Pub Crawl on Black Friday. That sure beats<br />
standing in long shopping lines.<br />

Happy Holidays to You All!!<br />
Once again, the October dance was a big hit. Even though<br />
I did not get to see the winners of the costumes, I heard<br />
that it was a very hard decision to make as to the winners.<br />
You all did such a grand job in the costume department<br />
that Barb and Henry continued right on to their Masquer-<br />
13<br />
DECEMBER <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong><br />
ade Pot Luck Dinner. Some of us could not be recognized<br />
at all! The food was outstanding and we did have a ball.<br />
Well, on to the next event we went, the Ladies Luncheon<br />
at Woody’s was well attended and of course the prizes<br />
were never ending. Fun was had by all!<br />
Comedy night at Anthony’s on the Boulevard was overflowing<br />
with the NRC members. So many, that the management<br />
had to book an additional night for the people<br />
that could not attend due to lack of room. The food was<br />
great as usual and the laughter never stopped. Thanks to<br />
the help of Cheryl and Steve Teal the new activity chair<br />
person (Lars) made it through his first big event almost<br />
without a hitch. You go Teals!!! Thanks for all your help.<br />
OK, so this takes us to Thanksgiving and we all know<br />
what that brings---more food and the spirits to go along<br />
with all the goodies. Desserts will be plentiful and so will<br />
the prayers and thanks for our lives as we know it now.<br />
Thanks to the Military for keeping us safe.<br />
Happy Holiday to you all!!! See you in <strong>December</strong> at the<br />
NRC monthly meeting<br />
Southern Palms<br />
March, April, May 2011: ShipReks<br />
Reporter: Pat Creevy<br />
The Halloween Dance was terrific which of course is not<br />
at all unusual. What was unusual was the variety and<br />
ingenuity that went into some of the costumes there. It<br />
must have been really difficult for the judges to select the<br />
winners. They all looked like winners to me!<br />
The Ladies Luncheon at Woody’s was really nice. This<br />
was my first time there and I really liked the atmosphere.<br />
We had another record crowd, the luncheons are getting<br />
so big, we’re going to run out of places big enough to<br />
handle us pretty soon! But the places we’ve been have<br />
really been up to the challenge. Great job by the luncheon
committees!<br />
Hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving! Today is<br />
Black Friday and while everyone else is probably out<br />
fighting the shopping crowds and spending lots of money,<br />
I am relaxing with my second cup of coffee. Can’t be<br />
lured into the frenzy. Instead we are going to the Sand<br />
Sculpture championship on Ft. Myers Beach. Talk about<br />
imagination! Those folks really have some exceptional<br />
talent.<br />
Cocktails on the Cape will also be at Woody’s on Pine<br />
Island so I’m looking forward to seeing everyone, especially<br />
our returning snowbirds, Linda & Jim! Welcome<br />
back guys!<br />
Sun Seekers<br />
June-July 2011: Sun Seekers Reporter:<br />
Randi Watkins**<br />
Last month’s Pot Luck dinner was definitely one for<br />
the ages. The theme was “Extravagance”, and everyone<br />
brought the most decadent and delicious item<br />
they could think of. We all scarfed-down lobster,<br />
stone crab, filet mignon, truffles and the like, and<br />
washed it all down by chugging several bottles of<br />
vintage Dom Perignon. Of course, for a feast such<br />
as this, only the most beautiful setting would do. So<br />
we decided to hold it at the Vanderbilt mansion. In<br />
hindsight, it probably would’ve been advisable to<br />
give the residents some advance notice of our intentions,<br />
but they were very gracious nonetheless– so<br />
much so that we were allowed to finish our dinner<br />
14<br />
DECEMBER <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong><br />
before being cuffed and hauled-off to spend the rest<br />
of the evening in jail. But even with those nasty<br />
trespassing charges now on our permanent records,<br />
it was well worth it, as all our Sun Seeker events<br />
have been.<br />
**Ed. Note: As always, the Sun Seekers have a<br />
wonderful sense of humor! And wouldn’t it be<br />
fun if they really had these fantastic adventures?<br />
Thanks, Sun Seekers, for always keeping<br />
our readers well entertained!<br />
Dec 2011/Jan <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong>: The Stone Crabs<br />
Reporter: Lori Voelker<br />
With most of our snowbirds back in the Cape, our<br />
monthly potluck held at the Moorings this month<br />
was a great success! Everyone had a chance to reconnect<br />
with old friends and catch up. Our next<br />
dinner will be a Christmas Party on Saturday,<br />
<strong>December</strong> 15th @ 3:00 being held at Jan& Bill<br />
Kramer's, 1623 SW 43rd. Lane. Please RSVP by<br />
Stone Crabs<br />
<strong>December</strong> 6th to jangramanana@gmail.comwith<br />
your selection and dish to pass. Bunco was held at<br />
Lynn Walker's with a loud crowd of women trying<br />
to beat Elly Wroblewski's run of luck. The next<br />
game will be held in January at a location to be announced.<br />
Comedy Night at Anthony's had Stone
Crabs laughing and enjoying great food. We are<br />
asking that anyone going to the Holiday Dinner<br />
Dance in September bring an ornament or decoration<br />
for the Stone Crab's table. Hope to see everyone<br />
there!<br />
Royal Palms<br />
February <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong>: The Royal Palms<br />
Reporter: Ann Banash<br />
The Royal Palms are alive and well! When the<br />
Snowbirds left in the Spring we were leaderless<br />
and shirtless and wondered if we were a group at a<br />
ll. Thanks to Josette and John Campo and Doris<br />
and Bill Awine, over 20 hearty souls gathered at a<br />
Pot Luck at Celebration Cape's beautiful pavilion<br />
to renew frendships and feast on wonderful food<br />
and a most decadent table of desserts. Realizing<br />
that two can do it better than one, two couples will<br />
host each month and decide what activity to do.<br />
Volunteers for <strong>December</strong>, January, February and<br />
April are already in place and we hope that some<br />
of the snowbirds who haven't yet returned will<br />
take March. We're still shirtless, but we're together<br />
and looking forward to a great season!<br />
May/June <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong>: Sand Dollars Reporter:<br />
Shirley Heselton<br />
Hope everybody had a great Thanksgiving. This<br />
past month’s potluck was held at Jon Hale’s new<br />
15<br />
DECEMBER <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong><br />
home and was terrific, both the food and the<br />
space. Not only were the Sand Dollars in attendance,<br />
but members from several other groups<br />
as well. Huge success! Everybody had fun, although<br />
I was a bit disappointed that no one<br />
tested out the heated pool. It seems that no matter<br />
how much drinking gets done, no one as of<br />
yet has taken a plunge, even when invited to do<br />
so.<br />
I’d like to thank board 90 for their hard work<br />
and congratulate board 91 for the seamless transition.<br />
Once again NRC ladies had a wonderful<br />
luncheon. This month’s luncheon was at<br />
Woody’s. I can’t speak for all of the ladies, but<br />
no one was complaining at my table. Unfortunately<br />
I can’t speak for game night this month as<br />
I was unable to make it, and this month’s dance<br />
is still a week away.<br />
However we did get into the spirit for last<br />
Sand Dollars<br />
month’s Halloween Dance and most of us came<br />
as hippies. It seems that most of us still remember<br />
way back when and some of us are still waiting<br />
for the style to come back. It amazed me<br />
how many had stuff in their closets from the 60s<br />
that they couldn’t part with. Nostalgia!<br />
Happy Holidays To All!
The CoCo Nutz<br />
July/August <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong>: The CoCo Nutz Reporter:<br />
Ray Kurka<br />
The fabulous CoCo Nutz are alive and well in Cape<br />
Coral. In October, Craig & Barb Williamson hosted<br />
a potluck at their lovely home. The weather was<br />
perfect and the affair was well attended. Barb &<br />
Craig decimated local poultry farms by the amount<br />
of great bar-b-qued chicken and a crock pot pork<br />
dish that was tender and delicious. Of course, there<br />
were salads, side dishes, and desserts, The party<br />
was enjoyed by all.<br />
On November 16 th , a pizza bash was hosted by Ray<br />
& Jeanette Kurka. Of course we picked the<br />
coolest day this fall, but most people were ready for<br />
it, Ray’s idea of making all the pizzas for the party<br />
took a wrong turn when the pizza dough that ate<br />
Cleveland presented a problem. The dough started<br />
to expand in the fridge. It refused to be beaten into<br />
submission. We had all the ingredients ready and<br />
no crust!. A emergency call to Crust Pizza down<br />
the street saved the day. They were delicious and<br />
probably better than any thing we put together. The<br />
rest of the evening went great.<br />
A brief visit from Wilson’s (our coconut mascot).<br />
Ex wife showed up and it was tense for a while.<br />
She will not make another appearance.<br />

DECEMBER <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong><br />
September <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong>: It’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere,<br />
Reporter: Nancy Lyons<br />
The 5 O’Clock Somewhere group continue to enjoy<br />
our time in paradise, getting to know one another as<br />
well as others who make up the <strong>New</strong> <strong>Resident</strong>s<br />
<strong>Club</strong>. NRC members are not kidding when they say<br />
that there is something to do almost every day – it<br />
can be exhilarating – and a bit exhausting. I mean,<br />
we’re retired, right? I never pictured retirees running<br />
from one activity to another with such gusto.<br />
And having so much fun every day!<br />
The Halloween dance was a great time and our own<br />
leader, Pat Wood and his wife, Lori, wowed everyone<br />
with their spot-on costumes as Thurston Howell,<br />
III and Mrs. Howell as part of the Gilligan’s<br />
Island crew.<br />
5 O’Clock Somewhere<br />
We held our November potluck at Richee B’s –it<br />
was another night of good food and great companionship.<br />
Shirts were distributed and we are looking<br />
forward to the first event where we can all wear<br />
them. There was discussion on a mascot – look for<br />
ours at the <strong>December</strong> monthly NRC meeting.<br />
Many 5 O’Clockers headed north for Thanksgiving<br />
or hosted family here in paradise. Spike McIver<br />
spent his days before Thanksgiving deep frying<br />
turkeys that he donated to fire houses around Cape<br />
Coral – proving once again that his heart is a big as
his home state of Texas. Lori Wood has traded in<br />
her mom car for some sexy new wheels – check<br />
them out if you get a chance.<br />
Our group would like to wish every at NRC a joyous<br />
holiday season and <strong>New</strong> Year – thanks for<br />
making us feel so welcome. In the words of the big<br />
guy way up north,“HO, HO, HO and enjoy your<br />
Holidays….. because it’s 5 o’clock somewhere!”<br />
October <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong>: The Coco Locos<br />
Reporter: Jean Matthews<br />
A special thanks goes to Joe and Nina Mirtel for<br />
hosting our November <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong> potluck dinner at their<br />
lovely home. Not only did they host the event but<br />
they prepared the most wonderful appetizers along<br />
with preparing the most scrumptious roasted<br />
chicken breasts. The salads, side dishes and desserts<br />
prepared by group members were also impressive<br />
as always. After dinner we got settled into<br />
the mode of selecting an official color for our<br />
CoCo Locos shirts and the decision was to go with<br />
the teal green color but it appears after meeting<br />
with the vendor that some other group had selected<br />
the same color so we are back to square one. I am<br />
sure that we will come to a new selection color in<br />
the near future and will move forward.<br />
The Coco Locos<br />

DECEMBER <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong><br />
Our leader Jim Marlow organized a CoCo Locos<br />
EcoWalk at the Fourmile Cove Ecology Park off<br />
Del Prado at the Veterans Memorial Statue. He<br />
also has created a list of“Events of Interest” in the<br />
Cape Coral area which has proven beneficial to our<br />
members in keeping everyone informed of all the<br />
many activities that are available to us. We are so<br />
fortunate that we have such a great group of friends<br />
who has made our transition to the area a very<br />
meaningful experience. We have so much to be<br />
thankful for as the Thanksgiving Holiday descends<br />
upon us and new friends have to be added to the<br />
top of the list. I look forward to meeting with everyone<br />
next month and hope that .everyone has a<br />
wonderful and safe holiday.<br />
The Dreamers<br />
November <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong>: The Dreamers<br />
Reporter: Cathy Baker<br />
We had our first "official" get together hosted by<br />
Cheri Dunlapp, even after her husband Doug was<br />
called to help with the Red Cross in N.J. Thank<br />
you, Cheri & Doug, for letting us into your beautiful<br />
home We decided on an appetizer pot luck as<br />
with so many of us in this new group - thought it<br />
would be easier to mingle and eat. A wide and<br />
abundant selection of delicious food was enjoyed<br />
by everyone so it was agreed our next meet up<br />
would be the same, at the home of Debbie and<br />
Steve Merz.<br />
We chose our leader, Dave Looysen or rather he<br />
kind of accepted his fate! Thank you so<br />
much,Dave! Our group name is the Dreamers with<br />
the motto of "Living the Dream." Maui Blue will<br />
be our color and we have some good ideas for a
logo. Ann Tobin stepped up to take care of the<br />
ordering. Thanks Ann! Linda Lanza and Barbara<br />
Farrington requested to be activity chairs asking<br />
everyone for suggestions of fun things for us all to<br />
do in the future. Thank you both, we are looking<br />
forward to having a lot of fun times together. The<br />
Dreamers are a big group, with a total of 41 signed<br />
up as of now.<br />
Our future looks bright as we start "Living the<br />
Dream".<br />
Happy Holidays to all!!<br />
October <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong>: Cape Crusader<br />

As most in our Cape Crusader group know, we<br />

Luck dinner once again. The date/time and theme<br />
will be announced to all members. PLEASE always<br />
RSVP to these potlucks. It helps the hosts<br />
know how much main course to prepare and the<br />
guests how much side dishes to prepare.<br />
Thanks and hope to see all the Caped Crusaders at<br />
the NRC bashes and in January at the pot luck.<br />

NRC MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT<br />
Greetings to members of the <strong>New</strong> <strong>Resident</strong> <strong>Club</strong> (NRC) of Cape Coral:<br />
Holiday Season Message from the President.<br />
Happy Holidays to all our NRC Members from Board 91 !<br />

DECEMBER <strong>20<strong>12</strong></strong><br />
First, I would like to give a “Special” Thank-You to all the Board Members for their hard work<br />
and dedication toward all our NRC activities and events this holiday season. It’s a very busy<br />
time of year for family and friends and your work to our club is deeply appreciated and<br />
supported as we continue to lead our club into the future.<br />
If this is your first holiday season since you have moved here, I want you to know you’re not<br />
alone and I personally invite you into our NRC family of events for the month of <strong>December</strong>. I<br />
encourage everyone, including all the groups leaders to reach out to the newer members,<br />
especially the ones that are celebrating their first holiday season here in Cape Coral. We want<br />
you to know you’re not an orphan in paradise! Please suggest and encourage some things to do<br />
together like pot lucks, small get-togethers, maybe going out to dinner to share the holiday<br />
spirit! The strength of our club comes from participation, encouragement and support by all our<br />
members, because that is what friends are all about!<br />
Thanks again, for all your continued support and participation in our club.<br />
Now let’s go out and have some fun!<br />
