Activity Board President

This project is being paid for by the Activity Board. Projects like this are why we have our fund raising events throughout the year. This could be a great benefit to all of our residents.

Over 100 owners did not vote. An unreturned ballot is the same as a NO vote. 250 owners voted yes, leaving us 12 shy of the 262 needed for the measure to pass. The owners petitioned for another vote on this measure. On March 7 we will hold a Special Meeting of the owners for this purpose. Watch for the ballots to be distributed. Your YES vote is needed.

I’m so glad to be back home in our beautiful community. My trip back from Indiana was uneventful but LONG. I had a wonderful visit with family and friends.
Once again I want to thank the many people who have stepped up and given of their time and talents to keep our park running smoothly.
Season is FAST approaching and I’m getting excited to see everyone and for all our fabulous events to get started.
Some of our residents are beginning to arrive. For those of you headed south soon, I wish you smooth sailing and safe travels.
see you soon I hope.

Good morning all. 
Summer heat and little rain has been the norm for several weeks now.
I’ve been reading , playing cards and board games with friends to pass the time.
Couple of news items to report. We were able to purchase a couple of dart boards and we have been enjoying some friendly tournament play on Thursday afternoons during Social Hour.

On Monday August 21 the resurfacing of the tennis/pickle ball courts will begin. It will be in great shape for the 23/24 season.

Our volunteers have been doing a bang up job filling in as needed around the park. Many thanks to all of them.

I will be out of the park for the month of September. Going up to my hometown in Indiana hopefully to cooler weather. 

Before you know it, all our seasonal residents will be back and the fun will begin. I am resting up and planning a few new things. Bring you dancing shoes as we will be doing lots of that.

So long for now. Keep the park in your prayers that hurricanes stay far far away.

The dogs days of summer are upon us. Hot, hazy days with afternoon showers/storms becoming the norm.

Not much to report, it’s pretty quiet around here these days.

All of our regular weekly events ( Bingo, Koffee Klatch and Social Hour) are back up and running. Cheri Neville has found a dart board for sale. Via a text message,  I canvassed the Activity Board members and it was unanimous that we move forward with the purchase.  Looking forward to some dart tournaments soon.  

We will be having a July 4th Potluck at 5:00 pm. We discussed grilling hamburgers and hotdogs but the consensus was to have fried chicken. Please sign up by the mailboxes so we can figure out how much chicken to buy. As usual bring your table service and a dish to share. I think people enjoyed the games after Memorial dinner so lets do that again.  

Several residents continue to battle health issues so keep them in your prayers. Also pray that any major storms stay far away from Tree Lakes.🙏🏻🙏🏻

Until next time, JoAnn

Hope everyone had a peaceful Memorial Day. We had a nice Potluck Dinner in the Cypress Room. There were almost 50 in attendance and the food was plentiful and yummy.  Several stayed around afterward to play cards and board games.

The kitchen remodeling is in full swing. The floor is done and the cabinets are progressing nicely. I think the pale grey color is beautiful. After a little hiccup with the door/drawer pulls, the new black ones look great.  Countertops and sinks going in the end of this week. I’m excited to see the finished product. Next step, pick a color for the walls. Need some bright color to pop and contrast with all the grey. A couple of suggestions are: coral, teal or yellow.  I will pick up some samples and bring them to Koffee to get some input.

Speaking of Koffee; even though we can’t use the kitchen yet, we still have Koffee Klatch on Tuesdays. We gather at 8 and at 8:30 we have a very informal meeting. Right now we are requesting you bring your own coffee and we will still have pastry selections to choose from. Most Tuesdays we do a 50/50 drawing.  Tuesday JUNE 6 we will meet at Popi’s at 8 for breakfast. 

Bingo will be back in business next Monday June 5. Hope to see you there. 

Happy hours will will also resume Thursday June 1 at 5:00 in the Cypress Room. Come join us for fellowship and to keep up to date on Park happenings. 

Until next time.   JoAnn🤓✌🏻👒🐊🌴🌻🌞🌙

Happy Wednesday.  Hope everyone had a great Mother’s Day. Although I was not with my son and granddaughter, it was a good day. Had Brunch with my friend which included a mimosa🍾.

• We are already experiencing hot temps and lots of gorgeous sunshine. Not much rain but rainy season is right around the corner. This made the road sealing go as planned except for one small glitch. All roads and parking lot sealed and painting done👏🏻👏🏻.  Kitchen floor has been replaced (looks great) and cabinet resurfacing scheduled first week of June. Kurt Miller has removed the cabinet doors and drawer fronts as well as the counter tops, sinks and faucets.  Thanks Kurt.  Sadly this means we have not been having Koffee Klatch. I really miss seeing everyone. Working on a fix for that. Watch this space and the gate message board for details.
