SCC Celebrates 60 Years

By Kai Rambow

Sun City Center recently celebrated its 60th anniversary.  The event, spread out over a Sunday afternoon, had the added bonus of reuniting people.  “It’s been almost two years since we saw you,” was a frequent comment.

The History Society displayed key events and photographs for people to view before entering Community Hall. Most people took their time to review the history of our community.

Larry Smith enthusing about the Sixty Years in Sun City Center, Florida book.

Before entering the hall, cupcakes, ice cream, and coffee were available.  Many enjoyed their treats while sitting with neighbors and friends. People were glad to be out and reconnect with others. A slide show played in the background and copies of the 60th anniversary book were available for purchase.  A continual stream of people enjoyed the occasion.
