FLORIDIANS
Pat Jones, 941-916-3717, PatJones@anchorsawaycruises.com

Our mission is to provide social opportunities.
Our goals are to make friends, participate, learn, and enjoy life.

While some PGI residents
were gone over the
holidays, there were still a
number of opportunities for the Floridians to enjoy the
company of their friends of long-standing and to make new
friends. Pictured here you will see the ladies gathered at
the home of Janet Ketts for their annual gift exchange.
Look at those smiles!

Theatre lovers enjoyed the January Florida Rep play, and
for food lovers Dine Around at Bianca’s is a special event.
You won’t want to miss out next time.

Meet and Greet at the Four Points by Sheraton is always
fun, even if a little chilly. Great news! The sliders are back!

Food and Friends allows you to casually get to know
others and taste some truly delicious foods at someone’s home.

The PGI Floridians would like to salute Ken Fish for his dedicated service to the club in several roles for a number of
years, including as president. Thank you, Ken!
