The PC Singles Club, despite the hot days of summer, found ways to socialize with fellow members at various events in and around the community. Recently the Singles Club took a trip to the Musical Instrument Museum (MIM) in Phoenix, which is ranked as one of the top 15 museums in the United States. With more than 6,800 instruments and objects on display, the MIM provides a one-of-a-kind experience for visitors of all ages. It showcases music and cultures from every country in the world through multimedia that allows you to hear, see, and feel the creative spirit of people as they play their instruments. The MIM Music Theater offers a 300-seat setting in which to enjoy live performances by artists from all over the world. The Experience Gallery allows visitors to have a hands-on opportunity to play instruments similar to ones that are on display.
Some of the activities which have been very popular during the summer months include; pool parties, bingo, burgers, and beer nights, and TV dinner game nights, all which were held within PebbleCreek. The regularly scheduled monthly activities which are well attended include; Happy Hours, bowling, golf, hiking, Sunday brunch and movie, numerous game nights, and karaoke. The Singles Club Activities Directors, Betsy Porter and Stu Zatkow, encourage members to offer suggestions, new ideas, and join in by assisting on the various committees. The upcoming agenda includes a trip to the Herberger Theater, featuring the evolution of America’s music and pop culture, and Ballet Under the Stars at the Estrella Lakeside Amphitheater. Included on the October calendar are plans for a square dance and potluck dinner.
