The holidays are upon us. Many of you will be
attending the Santa’s Breakfast with your families, while others will be
volunteering to help at the breakfast. This is a wonderful time for our
community to come together. A time when we get to meet all of those children
and When we give of ourselves we receive our greatest gifts. Another way in which this community comes together is at the Annual Holiday Party. It is a night of good food, good entertainment and good friends. This year promises to be just as much fun as last year! We have been asked why our Homeowner’s Association helps with the cost of some of these functions during the year. With the soaring costs of just about everything these days, we feel it is important for us to help defray some of the cost of these functions. As you all know, we are unable to accommodate everyone in the clubhouse at one time. This is the reason that our Holiday party must be held outside of our community, and why tents must be rented to allow everyone the opportunity to attend the 4th of July party. All of this costs money. We feel this is an important part of being an "active adult" community. We are fortunate to have such an active social committee and so many generous volunteers to provide these activities for us.
Anyone wishing to volunteer to work on an
activity committee or chair a
On behalf of myself and the Board we would like
to wish you all a Pat Schneider
Remembrance of In 1941, my father was the Naval Public Works Officer on Ford Island, the small island in Pearl Harbor along which the battleships were moored.
On December 7, 1941, I was ¼ mile away from
Battleship Row in Pearl Harbor. Of the 2400 American deaths that infamous
day, 1800 (75%) were men stationed on these battleships. Thus, I was
literally at ground zero. In fact, I was wounded in the first half hour
(hearing loss when 500 tons of explosives detonated inside the Arizona) and
again later that day when my older brother dropped a heavy wooden box full
of 50 caliber machine gun bullets on my right foot.
Please join me on Sunday, December 7, 2008 at
2:00 pm in the clubhouse for more "Remembrances of Pearl Harbor."

Brickman Field Notes: Overall, we consider the over-seeding to be a
great success and a step in the right direction for overall turf improvement
in the community. Remember, this is in some cases a two or three season
process so be patient. There have been a few concerns in the community
regarding germination. Many of the troubled areas that we have looked at are
going to continue to challenge us. Thanks to all of you that attended the
"Seasonal Color Conversation." We strive for these meetings to be a resource
for you and welcome any suggestions for future topics. We completed our pruning around the homes in
early/mid November as well. |
