Recreation manager outlines spring events, ADA ramp and new fitness classes for Sun City West clubs
Summary
Recreation Manager Casey Huda reported upcoming community events (Munchy Mondays March 24, Art Car Show Feb. 8, Classic Car Parade April 7), an ADA ramp at the Beardsley model-railroad display, and new fitness offerings including Zumba and cardio drumming.
Recreation Manager Casey Huda delivered the Chartered Clubs Manager’s report at the Jan. 7 committee meeting, summarizing holiday activities, facility improvements and several upcoming events intended to engage Sun City West clubs and families.
Huda said the g-scale model railroad at Beardsley will receive an ADA ramp and thanked maintenance staff and club officers for coordinating the improvement. Huda said maintenance had also provided replacement sleeves for the railroad’s holiday “Christmas tunnel” display.
On outreach and events, Huda noted the clay and glass clubs and other Kountze-area clubs supported a successful Toys for Kids event with about 189 children in attendance during the holidays. Upcoming events she highlighted included the free Art Car Show on Feb. 8, a Classic Car Parade on April 7 organized by ARC, and "Munchy Mondays with the Munchkins," a family event planned for Monday, March 24 in partnership with the Sun City West Foundation; the event will include a Wizard of Oz–themed parade and a dunk tank sponsored by a local realtor, with staff volunteers to participate once weight-capacity details are confirmed.
Huda also described new fitness offerings: Zumba classes that have been growing in popularity and a newly launched cardio-drumming class that has drawn about 25 participants to its initial sessions. "We need to have fun, need to work together and understand that everything that we do is for a purpose," Huda said when describing community engagement goals.
Ending: Huda said she will meet with club officers at scheduled officers' meetings to discuss club-level involvement in upcoming events and will circulate final details once vendor confirmations and logistic details (for example, dunk-tank capacity) are completed. Committee members thanked staff for the work coordinating clubs and facilities.
