October Activities and Events at the Villages of Citrus Hills

September came and went in the blink of an eye, and believe it or not we are already rolling into the month of October. That means that we are getting deep into another football season, all of our seasonal friends are coming back down south for the winter, and we better get moving on our Halloween costumes! 

As usual, there is something for just about everyone packed into this month’s activities calendar. Whether you are looking for a great day trip, a fun painting lesson, great dinner specials, or some of the most competitive golf anywhere along the Gulf Coast, you can always chase your passions here at the Villages of Citrus Hills. 

Let’s take a closer look at some of the biggest events happening throughout our community this month.

 Social Events

We will kick off this month’s social events on a competitive note with a Mah Jongg Tournament in the Activity Center Card Room on Wednesday, October 5 at 9 am. There will be a total of 13 tables playing simultaneously to decide who is the best Mah Jongg player in town.  

The Little Black Dress Club will be hosting a Hot Pink Luncheon Party on Thursday, October 6 at Skyview Restaurant. This month, the focus will be on breast cancer survivors.

On Sunday, October 9, our local car and truck enthusiasts will be getting together in the Activity Center Parking Lot. There will be food, music, and vendors, as well as tons of really cool classic cars! 

Speaking of the classics, there will be a group of members taking an “Old Florida” Antiques & Shopping Trip to Micanopy on Saturday, October 15. This day trip will offer some excellent shopping opportunities, as well as an optional historic tour.  

Our monthly Trivia Challenge Night will be on Tuesday, October 18, and it will have a Halloween twist this month with a special prize for the most creative costume!

The Shabbat Dinner Club will be meeting in the Garden Room at The Grille on Friday, October 21 for a fabulous dinner event that includes your choice of baked stuffed chicken or salmon with lemon dill sauce.

Arts & Education 

On Monday, October 10, The Vacationers Club will be meeting in the Activity Center at 10:30 am. This month’s speakers are Kathy Hildebrandt and Darla Fowler from Travel Authority, and they will be speaking about some of the upcoming trips for 2017.

Coffee & Canvas is also back this month, and local Artist Vanessa Fuller-Brown will be instructing the class on recreating Monet’s famous “Garden in Bloom.” As usual, everything you need is included in the $60 price for members.

Golf & Tennis

Golf season is already back in full swing, and there are three big tournaments scheduled for the month of October. That will start with the VIP Card Tournament at The Oaks Course on October 18.  

All the big dogs will be out at Skyview for the Men’s Match Play Championship on Monday, October 24 and Tuesday, October 25. This is one of the biggest members-only tournaments of the year.  

Couples who golf together stay together, and that will be on display at the 12th Annual Couples Championship teeing off on Sunday, October 30. This is a two-day, 36-hole tournament that will determine the best golfing couple in the Villages of Citrus Hills.  

If your game still needs some work, there will be Beginners Golf Clinics on October 3, 4, and 5. Those will be followed by Intermediate Golf Clinics on October 11, 18, and 25.  

Tennis players are not going to want to miss out on the Tennis Taco Fest on Sunday, October 16. This will be a round robin men’s and women’s doubles tournament that is followed by a build-your-own-tacos buffet.  

Those just starting to learn the game might want to attend the Free Beginner Tennis Clinic at Skyview on October 8 at 11 am.  

Dinner Specials 

Since it is the month of October, it makes sense that our friends over at Skyview Restaurant would be planning a few Oktoberfest specials. They will be serving up an Oktoberfest Dinner on October 11, as well as an Exploring the Tastes of Germany Dinner on October 25.  

Skyview Restaurant will also be hosting Sunday brunch on October 16 and October 30.

The Tiki Bar is also getting festive this month. They will be having a formal event called Alfresco on Thursday, October 13 with live jazz music and fancy, high-end food. Then, they will be cutting loose a bit on Monday, October 31 for their Halloween Costume Party.   

In case all of these great events still aren’t enough to fill up your calendar, you might also want to take advantage of the Marshmallow Pumpkin Latte Spa Pedicure that is on special throughout October at BellaVita.  

Looking ahead, there will be a trip to Tampa to watch the Buccaneers host the Seattle Seahawks in November. And you will definitely want to mark your calendars for the 12th Annual Holiday Boutique in the Hampton Room on November 3.

September Activities and Events at the Villages of Citrus Hills

While the month of September might mean that the days are going to be a little bit cooler, it also means that the activities and events here at the Villages of Citrus Hills are going to start heating up. With summer sliding into our rearview mirror, we are ready to kick off the most exciting fall lineup yet.

Between all of the great social events, golf and tennis activities, and dinner specials at each of our three amazing restaurants, there is enough happening around here to fill up your entire September calendar without setting foot outside of the community.

In case that doesn’t sound wild enough for you, the next event of the month will be the Disco Party on Thursday, September 15 in the Hampton Room. Doors open at 5:30, and shortly after the live music will start from Amee Reese’s Boogie Feva Band.  

Our regular monthly Trivia Challenge will be back in the Hampton Room on Tuesday, September 20. Do you have what it takes to knock off last month’s champs?

On Saturday, September 24, The Vacationers Club is sponsoring a group trip to The Straz Center for Performing Arts to see The Illusionists. The trip will be for the matinee show that begins at 2 pm, and tickets are $124 per person.

The final social event of the month will be the Summer Splash Sunday at the Activity Center Pool on Sunday, September 24 from 1 pm to 4 pm. This month, the live music will be provided by acoustic duo Mark and Sherrie.

For those golfers who are looking for some serious competition, there will be a VIP Card Tournament at Ocala National Golf Club on September 14 starting at 9 am.

If you aren’t quite ready to compete in any of those tournaments, you might want to think about checking out the Free Golf Clinics being offered with Golf Pro Wayne Larsen this month. Wayne will be instructing beginners on September 5, 6, and 7. He will also be holding clinics for intermediate golfers on September 13, 20, and 27.

This month’s Free Beginners Tennis Clinic will take place on Tuesday, September 13 at 11 am at the Skyview Tennis Center. This is a great month to start practicing for the Tennis Taco Fest doubles tournament that is being held in October.  

Dinner Specials 

Skyview Restaurant and the Tiki Bar will both be putting out Labor Day Buffets on Monday, September 5. The Skyview Buffet will have Barbecue Chicken and Baby Back Ribs from 12 pm to 4 pm, and then the Tiki Bar will offer Chicken, Brisket, and Pulled Pork from 4 pm to 7 pm.  

Other great specials at Skyview Restaurant this month include Brazilian Steakhouse Night on September 13, the return of Sunday Brunch on September 18, and a fabulous “Taste of France” wine dinner on September 27.

In between all of the great events and activities happening around the club during the month of September, you are also going to want to make some time to stop by the BellaVita Spa, where The Perfect Appearance Dermafile and Cool-Min Cucumber Massages are on special this month! 

It doesn’t matter whether you are looking for disco dancing, nerdy trivia, competitive golf tournaments, or a great place to watch the game, we have got it all at the Villages of Citrus Hills this month. See you at the events!
