April prepares her green Traffic light and the World thinks, ‘Go!’
SBE Wednesday night pool party.
Many in our village enjoyed the live music of Harry Boyle provided by our Community Association for our regular Wednesday Night Pool Party. In addition to the live music, Movie nights are planned with Conclave being shown for the first one. We certainly have a nice big screen for viewing pleasure. It’s always fun to gather and hear the latest news.
and Ty Tylander, front: Carol Cummins are excited to
see the Twins vs. the Yankees.
Steamboat Bend East was well represented at the annual Landings Day at the Minnesota Twins Spring Training game. It was an exciting game (with five home runs hit) and the weather was perfect with seats in the shade! Culinary treats included Brats, Killebrew Root Beer and plant-based Italian Sausage. The game was tied until the last inning when the Twins pulled ahead 5 to 4.

Congratulations to The Landings inter-club Winter Men’s Pickleball League Champions. The Landings team defeated Colonial Country Club in the semi-finals and then went on to defeat archrival Marina Bay for the championship. The championship came down to a super tiebreaker that the Landings team won 11-10.
birthday at the Charlie McCoy Pavilion.
Dick Cooper was completely caught off guard by his SBE and pickleball friends who gathered to celebrate his 70th birthday. His actual birthday wasn’t for a couple of weeks, so he was totally shocked. The guests enjoyed music, dancing, good friends, good food, and plenty of libations.
a camel ride with the Great Pyramid in the distance on
their trip to Egypt in February
It was a “one of a kind” adventure trip to Egypt that included an “Indiana Jones” type moment exploring the remote Meidum Pyramid South of Cairo. I have to admit that needing two police cars to escort our bus made me a little nervous. I never knew there were so many pyramids. Other highlights were seeing the ancient temples along the Nile River, a snorkeling trip in The Red Sea, visiting a perfumerie in Luxor, The Tombs in the Valley of the Kings and coveted tickets to the newly opened Grand Egyptian Museum in Cairo. The trip was recommended by Landings residents, Brian and Karen Bremenstuhl, and offered by a former Marine, Billy Moore, who had worked in Egypt.
