Around Sun Lakes

Make plans to attend the Sun Lakes Lions Breakfast Club Spaghetti Dinner from 4 to 7:30 p.m. Oct. 13 in the Arizona Room of Sun Lakes Country Club.

There will be a raffle and a silent auction. Dinner includes spaghetti, meat balls, green salad, bread sticks, dessert and drinks. Cost is $8 in advance, or $9 at the door.

The event benefits the Lions Foundation. Tickets are available from any Breakfast Club Lions member or at the resource desk of Sun Lakes Country Club.

Information: 480-252-4356.

Donation pickup: Pickup is available for items you would like to donate to the annual Treasure Sale for the upkeep of Sun Lakes Chapel across from Sun Lakes Country Club. This facility is used by four congregations in Sun Lakes. No televisions or large appliances, please. Call 480-326-1299.

Wine and cheese: The wine tasting at the Poolside Bar in Oakwood will be 4-6 p.m. Wednesday. Enjoy a sample pour of up to three wines for $12. Sample select cheeses and crackers, too. Call 480-895-7275 to see if spots are still available.

Craft fair: Vendors may sign up for the Nov. 10 craft fair at St. Steven's Catholic Church. Information: Diane Gray at 480-895-9266, ext 107.

Korea veterans: Korean War Veterans Countryman Chapter will meet at 10 a.m. Tuesday in the Friendship Room of Sun Lakes Country Club.

Guest speaker will be Steven Ball, who came to the United States from South Korea at the age 4 and was adopted by a Chandler family. Meetings are open to all. Information: 480-883-0122.

Political visitors: Sun Lakes seems to be a big draw for politicians of both parties. Republican Mitt Romney made a visit earlier in the year, and Democrat Richard Carmona made a stop recently to talk about his run for the U.S. Senate. Carmona was a high-school dropout who joined the service. He then used the GI Bill to become a doctor. He was surgeon general of the United States in George W. Bush's administration.

Fair trade: Gain free admission this fall to the State Fair and help veterans at the same time by going early or staying late. Work as an usher in the grandstands for the federal rate of $10.67 an hour with the money going toward costs of putting on Arizona StandDown for homeless veterans in March. Free parking is included.

Go to www.arizonastanddown.org to register. Questions? Call this columnist at 480-802-6810.

IronOaks openings: The IronOaks governing board will have two openings next year. If you are interested in service, get information at the clubhouse or call 480-895-7275.

Democrats get together: Sun Lakes Democratic Club plans a club social to kick off the party's final campaign efforts. Local candidates will attend and volunteer opportunities will be discussed from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sept. 29 at Sisk Park.

The park is in Palo Verde at Flame Tree and East Drive. Information: Ruth Kloner at 480-895-1378.
