Dear Members and Friends of the Estonian Society of Central Florida/Kesk Florida Eesti Selts!
Please plan to join us as we gather for our traditional and popular Estonian Soup and Sandwich Luncheon!
Sunday, January 21, 2024
12:00-4:00 pm
Volunteers are welcome to arrive at 11:00 am to help us set up and to remain after 4:00 to help us clean up!
WE ARE RETURNING TO THE COMMUNITY CLUB HOUSE AND RECREATIONAL CENTER AT THE WINTER HOME OF INNE AND HEIKKI JOONSAR. We have celebrated our soup-and-sandwich luncheon and other events there in the past.
TAMARAC BY-THE-GULF, INC.
9099 141st St.
Seminole. FL 33776
Tamarac By-the-Gulf is a community of 380 individual homes all painted white with white tile roofs. The best way to enter is at the TRAFFIC LIGHT on 86th Ave. N. and Oakhurst Rd. (137th St.) where there is NO sign. Then turn right onto 140th Way. Continue until you make a slight left onto 141st St. where parking and the club house are visible. Parking is available on both sides of the club house. The entrance at the TAMARAC sign off Oakhurst & 94th Place can be easily missed because it is hidden by a curve. A GPS can usually get you there.
This location is 5 minutes from the beaches if one continues west on Park Blvd. (694). Some of you may want to continue to the beaches to finish the afternoon and enjoy a beautiful sunset.
The amount of the members’ contribution to help us offset our costs will be announced at a later date.
Please plan to bring a contribution to the potluck luncheon table, e.g., salads, sandwiches, side dishes, soup, and desserts. Traditional Estonian dishes are encouraged! Inne has already planned to make our family split pea with barley and ham soup. If you are bringing a hot dish, please plan to bring it in your own crock pot or other warming appliance. The kitchen may be available for keeping dishes warm, but no cooking is permitted. Please bring your own beverages. Please note: This clubhouse, as a rental, does not permit alcoholic beverages to be served. Soft drinks, coffee and water will be provided.
KFES Member Peep Rebane volunteered the following for our entertainment: “Luban kah esineda lühikese satiirilise ettekandega mille pealkiri on “Eesti Rahva Randamised.”
Cost is $10.00 per person, children are free. You can pay (1) with cash or check at the door, (2) via ZELLE (KFES1918@yahoo.com) to the KFES bank account, or (3) check made out to KFES and mailed to Heikki Joonsar, 14932 89th AVE Seminole, FL. 33776.
By Monday, January 15, 2024, to help us plan for the right number of people, please send an email to KFES Treasurer Heikki Joonsar and let him know who is coming with you (please include children’s names and ages too) and what you will be contributing to the potluck luncheon just in case we need to make some adjustments in the menu. Please email Heikki at kfes1918@yahoo.com.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
Inne and Heikki Joonsar
