Dear TLC Community,

Welcome to summer and welcome back to the TLC newsletter. We took a small break but we are back and great TLC programming is back as well. First off a big thanks to all those who have paid their 2022-2023 dues. There are just a few of you who have not, (You know who you are), so please send your check in ASAP. TLC has kept the cost of membership super low. With the rising costs of, well everything, we can only afford to continue to do so when all members are on board.

Next, what have we been doing? Well, first off I am happy to report that we renewed our State of Florida License. This time, the renewal came with congratulations on our 20th year serving South Florida. More about that later. Early this month we once again awarded the TLC Spirit award to a deserving young performer. This year the award went to: Miss. Christina Pelaez. A bit about Christina. She is a young lady pursuing acting and wow is she talented! Since our name is “Theater” it is great that this year’s recipient is a theater performer. Best of Luck Christina, who won a Beautiful TLC Spirit Plaque as well as a $50 award!!!!

As was stated in the previous paragraph, Next month marks the 20th anniversary of The Theater Lovers Community. We will plan a couple of special 20-year TLC events over the next month. One of which will be a trip back to our first Happy Hour location, Foxes and perhaps a dinner where our club first formed in the back room of the now fully renovated and restored John Martins. Watch for next month’s newsletter coming soon with details.

This month, join the TLC at our home base the American Legion Post #31 for an 80’s Night starring Madame G.!!! See details below.

Well, that is all for today and we the board of the TLC look forward to seeing you very soon!

All our best,

Dear Membership,

The TLC wants to wish each of you a wonderful new year filled with Happiness. This year once again TLC plans to support the best local entertainers!  However, several of you have expressed your interest in a more wide range of TLC experiences including film a theater.  This season, we aim to please and will be looking at adding a few alternative experiences to entertain you.

We are super happy to welcome Eddie de la Portilla back to the board after a 13 year absence!  Eddie will be our new Public Relations officer.  Thank you Eddie and welcome back!!!

Thanks to everyone who attended our annual holiday party!!!  A fun time was had by all and Jeff Zavac was great!

We started the year off with a return from Madame G. on Jan. 7th.

Once again, the annual dues will remain the same…just $24 dollars!!!  Most of the membership is due so please email us back if you are in doubt.

Hi Membership,

Once again it is time for our annual holiday party. We have a super special lineup for this year that we know you will enjoy!!! Please see below for all the details!!!!

A bit of sad news…we lost two important supporters of TLC this month. Shelly Bivins, wife of Art Bivins passed. Shelly was a great supporter of TLC since it’s start in 2003. Shelly always helped Art Bivins with sound when Art performed. Her smile will forever be missed.

We also lost Mike McVay Commander of the American Legion passed last week. Mike gave TLC a home several years back which enabled us to save countless dollars. May they both rest in peace.

Dues are now due for the 2022-2023 season of TLC. Note July will be our 20th anniversary!!! Can you believe it?

The cost for TLC is still only $24 a year!!!

See you Sat. Dec. 10th at 6pm for our holiday party!!!
