Men’s Club lends a helping hand to Cresswind Twin Lakes

The Men’s Club is made up of male volunteers, living in Cresswind Twin Lakes and doing good deeds to help our neighbors and support the residents of Cresswind Twin Lakes, Hoschton and Braselton.

The mission of the Men’s Club is to provide civic, community service and social opportunities for the male residents of Cresswind Twin Lakes. The primary purpose is to offer aid and support to those who are dealing with serious illness, injury, or other emergency situations.

The Men’s Club Helping Hands Service Project provides good samaritan acts of kindness for home tasks that may be difficult or impossible for some neighbors to manage. The club volunteers have agreed to assist neighbors with the following services: searching for missing persons or pets; delivering meals to residents; visiting sick or injured residents; providing rides to doctor’s appointment or the pharmacy; watching a home while on vacation; jump starting a car battery; connecting or troubleshooting electronic equipment; turning mattresses, securing delivered packages; moving garbage cans to the street or house; help with programming a thermostat, irrigation controls or security alarm systems; and replacing air filters in the attic, water filters in the refrigerator or batteries in the smoke alarms.

Since March of 2022 the Men’s Club has dispatched volunteers to 41 service calls to lend a helping hand to Cresswind Twin Lakes homeowners. Our projects and services will change as the community grows and resident needs change.

The Men’s Club Medical Equipment Service Project collects donations of good condition, slightly used and unwanted medical equipment. The equipment is cleaned, safety checked, stored and then loaned to Cresswind Twin Lakes residents on a short term basis. There is no charge for this service and Men’s Club volunteers will deliver and pickup all equipment within the gates of Cresswind Twin Lakes. This newly formed committee has already loaned out medical equipment to five residents, each within hours of requesting our assistance. The club is in need of additional inventory and are accepting donations of the following: medical equipment, bed safety rails, canes, bedside commodes, crutches, knee braces, rollators, shower chairs, slings, walking boots, walkers, and wheelchairs.

The Men’s Club Stage Crew Committee offers assistance to the Cresswind HOA as needed with stage set-up and break down for concerts and other Cresswind events. It also helps out with the set-up of tables, chairs and tents as needed.

Celebrating Veterans Day, November 11

This past Veterans Day, November 11th, we took the opportunity to really give thanks to the many veterans in our community. Although it was raining, we made the most of it and met for a time of fellowship and celebration.

Leading up to Veterans Day, Tom Holloman and the Veterans Club lined Twin Lakes Boulevard with American flags. It was a beautiful sight! Then on the day of, we gathered together and heard from Guillermo Roman, who is proudly serving our country and wanted to express his thanks and gratitude to those who served before him. To top it all off, we indulged in a delicious New Orleans style lunch, donated by Jag’s Café in Gainesville!
