South of Sixty
 
I am looking to join the South of Sixty Club but haven't been able to find a POC.
Can anyone provide a POC?
Thanks, Lew

i have not heard of that club but certainly hear from a lot of people in their younger years (comparatively) so if you get the information will you please share it with us here? good luck!

Very high attrition rate, doesn’t pay to get too involved.

What happens when you get too old? Do they drum you out?

Wife and I were in the north of eighty club, but left shortly after joining, as we do not like funerals, or listening to all the proceedures, ailments, medicaction problems, and medical mishaps all the other members went on about.
We joined the local Parachuting Club instead. The people are far more optimistic about life!!

We don't really cotton to you young whippersnappers here in Cocoonville, but if you reckon you need to find more of your underage hooligans, they're here and there. I'm too old to give you an answer, but I hope you find them young 'uns. They're more fun than us geezers.

Those hooligans are easy to spot - they are the ones awake after 9PM.

I think the over 60's should have a protest like the good old days at their next meeting. I have a song and a slogan for the men. :rolleyes:

Looking for a shy of thirty club.

Kenswing 04-15-2018 09:44 AM

I love these discussions about age.. I remember when I dreaded turning thirty. Used to think forty was old. Now I think fifty is young. Can't wait to turn 60 so I can retire. Just hope I make it to 70 or 80. It's funny how our view of age changes as we get older.. We've all been there or at least hope to get there.

I went on FB and sent a request to the admin of that private group. Barney. They accepted my request. Looks like they are at 681 members as of today. So happy there is a place to meet people South of Sixty, in addition to my wonderful North of Sixty neighbors and friends...

My advice is if you like the group as you approach sixty, start heading East.

I have so much to look forward to before turning 60! Retirement, maybe my boys getting married, selling my house up north, and settling in at The Villages full-time. I am thankful and grateful for each and every day I wake up! Perhaps by the time I turn 60 TV will look really different, who knows? That's many many moons away...for now I can appreciate all the differences and share in the joy and beauty of TV!!

I agree with your attitude. Live every day of your life. Make each day a clean slate. Treat others as you would like to be treated. Treasure the people who love you. Do the best that you can with the tools you were given. Some days are good and some aren't. Life itself is a blessing.

When I see something so beautifully written as this, I know it must come from the heart. Thanks for sharing with all of us.

South of sixty , check out the facebook page, fun group!

VillageIdiots 05-28-2018 12:05 PM

There is a facebook group, but joining that does not join you into the SOS club. Visit South of Sixty Club - Home for membership and other information. My wife and I found the facebook group last summer and then officially joined when we arrived here in April. We have been to a couple of meetings/events. Nice people and fun. There are some singles as well if that's of interest to you. You can PM me of you have other questions about it. Dues are 10 whole dollars per person per year.
