It’s been a fun-filled, action-packed summer for our Robson Ranch Singles Club. Our members have come to expect fun, well-planned activities every month. Based on our participation, we are doing just that!
On June 17 we provided a buffet of pulled pork sandwiches, brought in the band Odessa, and set up the volleyball net at the beautiful pool here at the Ranch. More than 80 of our members enjoyed an evening filled with splashing, laughs, music, and, of course, margaritas.
Then on June 19, 56 club members and guests loaded a luxury bus for an afternoon of Texas Rangers baseball. Although the Rangers lost to the Royals, we enjoyed the comfortable, air-conditioned Globe Life Field and the camaraderie of our friends.
July temps took us inside to Bowlero Bowling Alley in Denton for three games of bowling fun, complete with pizza! There are always winners and maybe a few gutter balls, but everyone wins finding friends and enjoying this fun activity.
Also in July we held our third annual fundraiser, which was open to all Robson Ranch residents. This year we brought in the amazing Mark Stone, the Mentalist, to read minds and make us wonder, “How did he do that?”
In August we kicked off a new activity, our Brunch Bunch. It was so well received that we are planning another for September.
On Aug. 19 several of us boarded a luxury bus and headed an hour north to Oklahoma and the WinStar World Casino & Resort. Our members enjoyed gambling, shopping, people watching, food, and drinks in the casino’s nearly 400,000 square feet of gaming, shops, and restaurants.
As of this writing, we are planning another patio/pool party for September and a Brunch Bunch that same month. We’re bringing the Chicken Dance and brats to our Oktoberfest scheduled for Oct. 7. In November we are taking a luxury bus trip to Fort Worth for a catered BBQ lunch at a brewery and a tour of one of the area’s top distilleries. On Dec. 9 we’ll kick off the holiday season with our annual Christmas Party.
All of this plus our regularly scheduled Game Nights, BYOBs, and Mix & Mingles. Membership in the RR Singles Club is only $20 annually. Contact our president Mary Fabian at maryfabian@sbcglobal.net for more information.
