Start planning your outfits. It’s going to be a weekend packed with music, dancing, trivia, and plenty of nostalgia. Come ready to sing along, show off your best ’90s look, and make some totally rad memories with friends!
Laura Takes the Super Mega Trivia 3000 Title
After an exciting battle of knowledge, quick thinking, and perhaps a few lucky guesses, Laura emerged as the new Super Mega Trivia 3000 Champion!
Her victory earned her an impressive prize package: one villa stay, dinner for two at Cheeks, two $5 Cove Coins, and six drink coupons. She was then given the opportunity to double every prize and she did! Laura walked away with two villa stays, two dinners for two at Cheeks, four $5 Cove Coins, and twelve drink coupons.
Even better than the prizes, Laura has earned a permanent place in Cypress Cove history. Her name will be engraved on the Super Mega Trivia 3000 championship belt, and her photo will be added to the official champions plaque for everyone to admire.
Congratulations, Laura! Your knowledge, courage, and willingness to risk it all have made you a true Super Mega Trivia 3000 legend!
Our Summer champion, Laura, will wear the championship belt for a second time.
Science Time with Timmy
For those who have always been fascinated by how things work, love asking “why,” or enjoy discovering something new, Science Time with Timmy is for you.

Come ready to explore big ideas, spark your curiosity, and share in the excitement of discovery.

Back to the ’60s Weekend is bringing a brand-new activity to Cheeks, and you won’t want to miss its debut! Join DJ Adam on Saturday, September 26 at 8:00 pm for a Late Night Dance featuring Musical Bingo.
Instead of listening for numbers, you’ll mark your bingo card when you recognize the songs DJ Adam plays.

You don’t need to be a music expert to join the fun; just grab a card, listen closely, and get ready to shout “Bingo!”

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 6:00-9:00 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. 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!
Nude-A-Palooza Returns October 24th
Get ready to turn up the volume for a great cause. Nude-A-Palooza returns to Cypress Cove on Saturday, October 24th!
This unforgettable day of live music brings talented tribute artists to the stage for an energetic celebration of legendary performers and iconic hits. Even better, the fun supports an important cause, with proceeds benefiting Florida Cancer Specialists Foundation.
Nude-A-Palooza is one of the most anticipated events of the year, so don’t wait until the last minute to make your plans. Purchasing your tickets early is the best way to make sure you don’t miss a full day of incredible music, great company, and the one-of-a-kind atmosphere that makes this event so special.

Wigs for Kids Benefit: Old Hair, New Hope
An update from Patti Sarver...
I am happy to share that this year’s Wigs for Kids Benefit has raised approximately $2,900 so far! Since our bowling fundraiser will take place after the benefit this year, we may still have more funds to add to that total.
As wonderful as that number is, the heart of this benefit has always been the people behind it. I am incredibly grateful to everyone who purchased raffle tickets, made a contribution, volunteered their time, or donated their hair.
This year’s hair donations have been especially meaningful. We often think donated hair must be freshly cut, but that is not the case. Once it is made into a hairpiece, it becomes a lasting gift for a child—regardless of when the hair was cut.
We currently have six hair donors. Josh, Russell, and Patti donated freshly cut hair, while the other three donations were saved from haircuts that took place many years ago. In many families, saving a child’s first haircut is a treasured tradition. But what if that first haircut did not happen until the child was 9, 10, or even 13 years old?
This year, we received three remarkable hair donations that had been carefully saved for as long as 64 years! The theme of this year’s benefit truly seems to be “old is new.” Hair that was lovingly tucked away for decades will now have a new purpose, helping a child feel more confident and whole. Knowing the effect our little benefit continues to have on people and seeing the love behind these donations makes my heart swell.
I also want to thank the club members who helped make the weekend possible. Larry C., Mark, and Amy R. helped set up, take everything down, manage the booth, and provide food throughout the weekend. Josh not only delivered the donation from Tampa Bay Free Beaches, but also donated his hair and sold raffle tickets at the other pool.
Thank you to everyone who participated and supported this special cause. Every ticket purchased, every hour volunteered, and every lock of hair donated helps make a difference in a child's life.
