It's Thirsty Thursday Week!!
March 2, 4 pm
Have you been to Thirsty Thursday? Thirsty Thursday is EE's informal, no-host happy hour we have every other Thursday at the Ramada at 4 pm. Everyone brings their own beverage, a snack to share (if you like), your own eating utensils, and gathers at the Ramada for a visit with neighbors and friends. This is Thirsty Thursday week, so come on over to the Ramada and join in the fun!

Esperanza Estates Garage Patio Ramada Sale
From: Kraylen Miholer
The EE Enhancement group is having a Garage Patio Sale at the Ramada, Saturday, March 11, 8 am to 2 pm, open to the public. We'll also be open exclusively for EE Residents on Friday, March 10, from 4 to 5 pm.
During the pandemic we didn't have the large Ramada sale like we have done in the past, but we still got some donations of items from residents. We have mostly household and kitchen items, plus some tools, sporting goods, and possibly some jewelry. This sale will be scaled back from our sales in previous years, but we wanted to sell what has been donated.
All proceeds from the sale will be used toward beautifying our Esperanza Estates neighborhood.

Annual Sausage Fest Earns $$ for Optimist Scholarships
Lots of folks, over 100, came out last week for the Annual Optimist Sausage Fest. With the sale of the sausage sandwiches and frozen sausages, we helped the Optimists earn $1000 toward their scholarship fund. This year the Optimists will be awarding six $2000 scholarships to local high school seniors. A special thank you to the EE Hospitality Group for their usual fantastic job, and thank you to everyone who supported this very worthy cause!

Green Valley Through the Decades
Source: Wick Communications
In 2014, Green Valley celebrated it's 50th Anniversary, 1964 - 2014. The Green Valley news published a book, Green Valley Through the Decades, covering the development and growth of our community over those 50 years. It's well done with lots of great pictures and history. You can access the book online at this link.
Note: You will be able to read it better if you use the full screen viewer on your computer.
Thanks to Kevin Welsh for sharing this information.
