Get ready for something new and enjoyable. Mediterranean night at a locally owned restaurant in Orlando. I came across this place accidentally, met the manager and found that they had a great venue for our next meeting. This will be more than tasty Mediterranean style food, the restaurant also features entertainment for the guests and will give us group seating so we can all chat and enjoy the evening. Dinner will begin at 7:00 and entertainment starts around 8:30. There will be a magic show and belly dancing plus they have asked us to bring some Russian music to make us feel at home. Sound like fun? It will be and I'll see you there!

Stetson University has invited us to attend their free lecture on Tolstoy, scheduled for November 23, 3009 at 6pm. For those who have read and enjoy Tolstoy, this event will be very interesting. The lecture will be given by Inessa Medzhibovskaya of The New School (New York) on “Tolstoy: The Art of Terror and the Terror of Art,” on Monday, Nov. 23 at 6 p.m. in Room 122 of the Lynn Business Center, 345 N. Woodland Blvd. Medzhibovskaya teaches literature at the New School in New York. A widely recognized specialist on Tolstoy, Medzhibovskaya recently published Tolstoy and the Religious Culture of his Time, which examines the Russian author's religious evolution. She has also written on Pushkin, on the Russian-Jewish philosopher Simon Frank, and on Soviet childhood. About Stetson University

It's time to celebrate the cooler weather (ok, pretend we have some), join us for an ice skating party at the RDV Sports Complex. Skating will be from 2:00-3:45pm and will include a DJ. This is public skating so we will be sharing the rink with others. For those who just want to watch, there are places to sit around the rink. Afterward, if some wish to get together for coffee or a light snack, we can plan something quickly. Small children can also skate and we will be taking pictures so please come out and make some memories! The cost will be under $10 per person, I will have specific costs after I get enough RSVP's to negotiate a group rate. (We need at least 10). The last time we did this, everyone had a fantastic time and we discovered some amazing skaters in our group...and some who forgot how :-) See you on the ice!

Hello Everyone,
It's time to celebrate our 5th year as a Society! Start planning now to attend this very special event at Turkey Lake Park. This will be a potluck, so each person should bring their favorite side dish to share with others and of course-whichever Shashlik you like to cook on the grill. The Society will provide Plates, Cups, Utensils, Ice, Soda and Charcoal for the grills. Please remember to bring grill utensils if you plan on grilling. What to bring: A side dish to share to be shared with others. There will be grill available for those who wish to cook shashlik or anything else they prefer such as steak, chicken or hamburgers. We will try to manage the grill space so everyone has equal use of them. Soft drinks, cups, plates, forks and ice will be provided. (Please remember to bring charcoal if you are going to use a grill). What to expect: There is a small charge for entering the park (usually $4). Ask at the gate where the "Russian group" is and they will provide directions. We will have a Russian and American flag at our shelter so we will be easy to find. (Typically we try to set up near the playgrounds) You can also call me at 407-709-1131 if you have questions the day of the event. Leave a message if I don't answer--sometimes I am on the phone with multiple people at the same time. We will have music, food, lots of conversation and walks in the park if the weather permits. There are numerous playgrounds nearby for children and a great track for skating or bike riders. The lake is also very scenic and allows fishing from the bank or off the pier. Pets are not allowed in the picnic area so please leave them at home unless you have a kennel or know how to hide them when the park rangers drive by ;-) Alcohol is also not permitted, so you will have to plan accordingly for your beverages. See you at the park!

Time to work on your tan! Let's meet by the Cocoa Beach Pier and enjoy the beaches that make Florida famous. We will have our flags waving in the breeze as we make our "camp" on the beach. Bring coolers, umbrellas, lawn chairs and towels, whatever you like to have for a relaxing day by the ocean. (Please don't forget sunblock!) The plan is to be there from 11am until 3pm. For those driving greater distances this will give you more time to make the trip. Parking fee's for the day are usually between $5-$10, some coin operated spots may also be available. Surfs Up!

This will be a great event for all, we will be meeting at Moss Park to celebrate Easter and enjoy each others company! The plan is to have a Shashlik style cookout at the beach side pavilion (Number 3). What to Bring: A side dish large enough to share with others, your choice of Shashlik or whatever you wish to grill. What to expect: Plan on relaxing, this is going to be a great event! You may want to bring fold up chairs in case it gets a bit crowded inside the Pavilion. If we have a lot of small children attending (please let us know in your RSVP) we can have an Easter Egg Hunt for the kids. Plates, Cups, Soda, Utensils, Napkins and charcoal for the grills, will be provided. About Moss Park:
The largest of Orange County's parks, Moss Park is an oasis of nature well secluded from the encroaching development of houses and strip malls in the area. Natural Florida is at its best in the park, with plenty of heron, rabbits, and other family-friendly critters in plain view. Most are more than at ease with humans, so much so that they walk right up to picnic tables to "sample" unprotected food. Large trees - appropriately covered in moss - canvas the park, providing shade at almost every turn. An extremely popular destination for family reunions and informal company cookouts, the park offers plenty of covered pavilions with large barbeque grills and picnic areas that can be rented for parties and special events. Pavilions closest to the entrance are best bets when bringing the kids, since they're close to the largest of two playgrounds, the beach, and the most popular fishing areas. Activity wise, the sand beach and designated swimming area (no life guard on duty) of Lake Mary Jane are popular with families. A boat launch and dock make the front of the park especially busy with guests, especially in the early afternoons. A sand volleyball court and hiking trail round out park offerings.
