Old West Show Coming To Town April 26
Nazdar
Wanted! From the 1880s’ Old West, another mystery dinner show fundraiser on Sunday, April 26, at 5 p.m. “Bordello of The Damned.” This is not just another night at the Masaryktown Saloon and Bordello; it will be more deadly than usual. Cost is $15 per person, which includes dinner and dessert. There will be a cash bar and a costume contest. There is limited seating, and tickets are going fast. For an early roundup of tickets and more information and tickets, call Becky at 352-397-3758.
Big thank yous from the community on the recent polka dance, which was a success. And from Holy Trinity Lutheran Church on their very successful spaghetti dinner dance at VFW Post 8681. The proceeds went to the food pantry. Whatever food that is not donated has to be bought, and currently they are feeding 60 to 80 folks weekly. So if you can help, please do so.
Sunday, at our big Masaryktown birthday celebration dinner and dance at the Community Hall on Lincoln Avenue, added to the program besides, “The Beseda,” back from New York, Steve Aldridge and Malia Ondrejka will entertain you. Serving starts at 11:30 a.m. and if you just want to dance, the cost is $6.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day, March 17, at the Harmony House Family Restaurant. The restaurant will be open 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. They will serve corned beef and cabbage. Located on U.S. 41 south next to the Handy Plaza. Their head baker and chef, Pete, has created a new raspberry torte. This makes No. 8 in the torte line of flavors, besides the strudels and napoleons. For more information, call 848-0828.
Autumn Blaha came home from St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, for a short day visit end of February visiting family and close friends. Then off to Pensacola with Mom Dee Blaha and Grandmother Jean Lane of Brooksville (who went so they could have more time with Autumn.) Autumn was an attendant at her college friend’s wedding. Then back off to the islands. She and her boyfriend Nick Terry of Milwaukee, Wis. are planning to leave St. Croix in May and continue to travel and dive (work) in the waters of Belize. Dee and Mike are filing for passports. What else would parents do?
The Blahas have also practiced natural and chemical hormone and antibiotic free meats, and vegetables, and even natural pet food and bones. They have now added a CSA (customer supported agriculture) program.
They will now year round add to the value of meats, eggs to a typical veggie plan only. You can check out their Web site at www.rabbitsetc.us for current information on rabbits, etc., at the Blaha Farm.
They also have composted worm manure for your own soil. You are welcome to a tour of their farm in the middle of Masaryktown, but please call 352-796-0459, as they work the farm and cannot stop at any time. Call and they will be delighted to make arrangements for a tour.
On Feb. 29, Helen Havens, her daughter Helen Parsolano and daughters/granddaughters Stephanie and Rebecca Parsolano attended a baby shower in St. Petersburg at the home of Mrs. Kathleen Norsteins, overlooking the bay. The shower was for Helen’s great-grandson, Logan Maximus Chintoyloy. He was born on Jan. 29 and weighed 6 pounds 3 ounces. Proud parents are Roger and Kathleen Chintoyloy of Orlando.
More than 30 guests enjoyed a spectacular array of finger foods. All had a very delightful time.
