The Dragon is the only mythical creature in the Chinese zodiac. It is characterized as powerful, confident, intelligent and naturally talented. People who are born in the Dragon year are thought to also be the luckiest of the bunch, so much so that couples orchestrate having a baby during a Dragon year. 2024 is the year of the Wood Dragon, where the wood element symbolizes a good foundation for long-term success. What a wonderful outlook!

The Tennis community is gearing up for the Adult Club Singles Championship happening from March 1 – 3. Whether you are “almost pro” or just learning, check in the Sports Counter and see how you can be part of the fun. Alternatively, get the littles ones involved and get ready for the Parent-Child Tennis Tournament on Sunday, March 17.
The lucky color for 2024 is green; lucky numbers are 7 and 8, and the lucky charm is a jade stone. In my opinion, nothing attracts good fortune better than an attitude of gratitude and paying it forward. Huat Ah!
