A Weekend Made for Legends
Clear the calendar, find your favorite people, and prepare to be slightly less responsible than usual. Legends Weekend takes over the Cove October 9–11, and this is not the weekend to watch all the action from your window.
We’re talking music turned up, drinks in hand, friends gathering around the pool, questionable trivia answers delivered with absolute confidence, dancing long after you originally planned to go home, and plenty of opportunities to say, “Well…we’re already here.”
The pool will be buzzing all weekend with DJs Carlos and Dave keeping the music going. When evening rolls around, the competition starts. Bar Trivia and Super Mega Trivia 3000 are your opportunities to gather the resident know-it-alls, take a few wild guesses, and discover exactly how competitive your friends become when bragging rights are involved.
Saturday night, Lakeside Live presents the Legends Show, and this is your chance to grab a seat and see what happens when the spotlight comes on. Cheer loudly, enjoy the show, and whatever you do, don’t head home afterward. DJ Laura is taking over Cheeks for a late-night dance, and Saturday deserves a proper ending.
Need a breather? Wander through the Fall Craft Fair, grab something good to eat, hang out by the pool, catch up with someone you haven’t seen lately, or simply plant yourself somewhere interesting and see where the day takes you.
And Sunday isn’t an excuse to disappear. There’s poolside music with Andy, and Dinner and a Movie Experience at Lakeside waiting to close things out.
Here’s the thing about Legends Weekend: you already know the Cove. You know the pool. You know the people. But you never quite know what’s going to happen when everybody actually shows up.
That’s where the good stuff is.
So grab your crew. Leave the “maybe” at home. Show up, stay later than you planned, and give yourself something to talk about Monday morning.
Legends aren’t made sitting at home.
Fall Craft Fair Returns October 10
The next Cypress Cove Craft Fair is just around the corner! The fall event will be held on Saturday, October 10, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Guests can browse a variety of handmade items, unique creations, and delicious treats, including sourdough bread and other baked goods. The fair is currently scheduled to take place inside the Clubhouse. If vendor demand is high, additional space will be available outdoors under Old Cheeks.
Vendor spaces are still available. Anyone interested in participating should email Vickie at vickiejallen@gmail.com to reserve a spot.
An Evening at Lakeside: Trivia, Dinner & a Movie
Get ready for an evening filled with great food, movie trivia, and a little romance on the dance floor. Join us at Lakeside on Sunday, October 11, from 5:00-8:00 p.m. for a themed dinner and movie experience inspired by one of cinema’s most beloved summer romances.
The evening begins with movie-themed trivia, a surprise welcome cocktail, followed by French onion soup, a Kellerman Garden Salad, and shrimp cocktail. For the main course, guests may choose between Royal Rib Roast with au jus or Mornay Mushroom Chicken, served with Duchess potatoes and almondine red pepper-haricots verts. Chiffon cake with vanilla cream and Grand Marnier mint-berry compote will provide a sweet finish, just like the movie.
Test your knowledge during themed trivia, enjoy an elegant dinner, and settle in for a film that might have you ready to dance by the end of the night.
Tickets are $49.95 per person (tax and gratuity included). Seating is limited, so please call Lakeside at 407-933-3588 to make your reservation.

Baking for Boobies Celebrates 15 Sweet Years!
Get ready to indulge for a great cause! Baking for Boobies is celebrating its 15th annual fundraiser on Saturday, October 17, from 12:00 - 4:00 pm in the Gameroom, kicking off a very special week of fundraising at Cypress Cove leading into Nude-A-Palooza.
Cypress Cove’s very own Herman Galon spearheads this fundraiser every year, driven by his deep passion for supporting those affected by cancer. Once again, proceeds from the event will benefit Florida Cancer Specialists, and there are plenty of delicious and fun ways to show your support.
40 Cheesecakes. One Very Good Cause.
The star of the day is, of course, the cheesecake! Choose from an incredible 40 different varieties, available for $6 per slice. Whether you stick with an old favorite or make it your mission to sample something new, every slice helps support the cause.
But cheesecake isn't the only treat on the menu! Baking for Boobies is a full bake sale, with a variety of homemade goodies available for purchase, including cookies, muffins, and other baked treats. Come hungry and take a few extras home for later!
Want more than a slice? Eight whole cheesecakes will also be available to order for $72 each. With a limited number available, you'll want to get your order in early.
Raffles, Raffles & More Raffles!
Raffle tickets are just $1 each or 15 for $10, with a great selection of prizes up for grabs. Tickets may be purchased from Herman at Cheeks, Monday through Thursday.
The small raffle prizes will be drawn during the pool party on October 17, and you must be present to win. The Large Prize Packs will be drawn that evening at Lakeside, and you do not need to be present to win those.
Prizes you could take home include a sterling silver Cypress Cove pendant and necklace, a Nude-A-Palooza Prize Pack, a Deck Party Prize Pack, and more!
Who Are You Fighting For?
This year's fundraiser also gives you a special way to recognize someone who has been touched by cancer. For a donation, add an "I'm Fighting For: ______" dedication card to the Pink Tree. Write the name of someone you're honoring, remembering, or supporting and help fill the tree with a powerful visual reminder of why this fundraiser matters.
Make It a Week of Giving
Baking for Boobies takes place just one week before Nude-A-Palooza, making October a big month for coming together, having fun, and supporting an important cause.
Come hungry, grab some cheesecake and baked goodies, buy a few raffle tickets, add a dedication to the Pink Tree, and help us celebrate 15 years of Baking for Boobies. After all, supporting a great cause never tasted so sweet!
Do you only want to make a donation? Purchase a virtual cheesecake HERE!
*Herman needs volunteers; please email Newsletter@cypresscoveresort.com to help on October 17th!

A Spooktacular Night for Our Young Trick-or-Treaters!
Get those costumes ready and grab the candy buckets! Our youngest ghosts, goblins, superheroes, princesses, and everything in between are invited to go trick-or-treating around the Cove on Saturday, October 31, from 5:00–7:00 p.m.
We’re putting together a Cove Trick-or-Treat Map to help families find all the stops where treats are waiting. Residents who would like to join the fun by handing out candy are encouraged to participate. Decorate your site, dress up yourself, or simply have a bowl of goodies ready for the kids. How much you get into the Halloween spirit is entirely up to you!
Want your home or site included on the Trick-or-Treat Map? Email us at Newsletter@CypressCoveResort.com and let us know you’ll be handing out candy. We’ll add your location to the map so our trick-or-treaters know exactly where to find you.
Whether you’re walking the Cove with the kids or waiting for a knock at your door, help us fill the evening with costumes, candy, and a little Halloween magic. The more stops we have, the more fun it will be for everyone!
Who Has the Spookiest House at the Cove?
It’s time to dig out the skeletons, untangle those orange lights, inflate the giant monsters, and give your neighbors something to talk about. The Halloween House Decorating Contest is back, and we want to see the Cove decked out for Halloween!
Whether your style is creepy and haunted, funny and over-the-top, or so elaborate that we start questioning how much free time you actually have, we want you in the competition. You don’t need a Hollywood-sized decorating budget just a little creativity and plenty of Halloween spirit.
Think cobwebs, tombstones, ghosts, witches, pumpkins, lights, monsters, and whatever other spooky surprises you can dream up. Better yet, get your neighbors involved and turn your whole corner of the Cove into a Halloween destination.
Ready to compete? Email Newsletter@CypressCoveResort.com to sign up and make sure your house is entered into the contest.
Then join us at Lakeside at 9:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 31, when the winners will be announced and Halloween bragging rights will officially be awarded.
Don’t leave all the fun to your neighbors. Sign up, decorate, and show us what you’ve got. This Halloween, we want the Cove looking frighteningly good!

Four great prizes, donated by the participating businesses, will be awarded to the four best hands, with winners contacted that evening. You don’t have to be shopping for a home to join the fun!
With our winter friends returning, it’s also a great Saturday afternoon to reconnect, meet new arrivals, and catch up with neighbors. Stop in, say hello, and discover all the great offerings at the participating businesses right here inside Cypress Cove. We look forward to seeing everyone!

Monday Nights Are Getting Competitive at Scuttlebutts
Monday night at Scuttlebutts was anything but quiet! After a typically laid-back Monday around the Cove, VERSUS Team Games & Karaoke brought exactly the change of pace we needed. The room filled with friendly competition, plenty of laughs, a little trash talk, and some wonderfully questionable karaoke choices.
DJs Laura and Joy kept the fun moving as teams went head-to-head through games and challenges, with bragging rights on the line. It was competitive without taking itself too seriously—the kind of night where you can show up with friends, join a team, meet some new people, and quickly find yourself way more invested in winning than you planned.
And when it was time to grab the mic, karaoke kept the energy going. Whether you came ready to sing or were perfectly content cheering on the brave souls who did, Monday night was a great reminder that the beginning of the week doesn’t have to be boring.
If you missed the first one, you haven’t missed the fun! VERSUS Team Games & Karaoke continues every Monday night through December from 5:00–9:00 pm at Scuttlebutts Lounge. Come out, pick a team, grab the mic, and help us turn quiet Mondays into one of the most fun nights of the week.
Cribbage Is Back!
Grab a deck, find your favorite opponent, and get ready to count, Cribbage is returning to the Clubhouse!
Beginning Monday, October 5 at 6:30 p.m., this classic card game is back for another season of friendly competition, good conversation, and maybe just a little bragging rights. Whether you’ve been playing for decades or haven’t picked up a Cribbage board in years, it’s a great excuse to get together with friends and put those card-playing skills to work.
Never played before? Don’t let that stop you. Cribbage may have been around for centuries, but once you get the hang of the basics, you’ll quickly see why people still love it. Come watch a round, learn from some of our regular players, and give it a try.
Join us Monday, October 5 at 6:30 p.m. in the Clubhouse and help us welcome Cribbage back to the Cove. Who knows, you might even find your new Monday night tradition!
