A Note from the President Autumn is officially here. Signs of the season are evident all over this community with homes decorated with pumpkins, scarecrows, mums, and even a ghost or two. Everyone works very hard to keep the neighborhood looking festive. The Board has accepted the resignation of Dick Hellkamp as of Nov.1. Dick has been our Treasurer since the Board took over from the builder and he has worked above and beyond, making sure every penny is well-spent and accounted for. We are all very sad to see him go, but also realize that he has spent the last 5 years working hard on the Finance committee as well as the Board and deserves some free time. Thanks for all of your conscientious work, Dick. Dick had one year left of his term so the Board appointed Joyce Bryant to fill this term. There will be one opening for a three year term on the Board which will be filled at an election held on the night on the annual meeting which will take place on Monday, December 14. The Board has appointed Emmett Waller to head the nominating committee for this election. I want to thank Walt Ramsey and the very talented members of Heritage Pines who performed at the Fall Follies. If you didn’t get to see the Follies, you happened to miss quite a show!
Everyone had a wonderful time and the talent was
amazing. Martha Kozar won the prize for gathering the most On a sad note, I want to mention the death of a resident, Mary Mazzoni, who was the mother of Eva Germano. Mary reached the age of 96 in August, and at the Italian Night in September, Mary came onto the floor to dance with Eva.
Mary looked so happy and Eva commented that her
mother had such a
Looking forward to seeing you out and about,

Tim Mannix won two close to the pin prizes while Walt Ramsey won the other close to the pin and long drive prizes.
Thank you to all who have given non perishable
food items. All of your items have been used to fill grocery bags that are
handed out to prescreened families. However the need is still great. More
families sign up for help every week. Current needs are Jelly, Jell-O,
canned The goal is to give each family a weeks worth of well rounded meals when possible. I am hoping Heritage Pines can make a dent in the need in Cary.

December Dates to Save Music, Music, Music! What is it good for? Music enriches our lives, is a rewarding experience, makes the day more alive, is a source of joy, adds to the quality of life and it is good for the brain.
These are some of the many good reasons to join
the choral group that meets in the clubhouse on Fridays at 2:00 pm. Everyone
who can sing is welcome to join - you do not have to read music. The choral
group will sponsor a Wednesday, night, December 16 for The Encore Singers Concert at the clubhouse.

Clubhouse Fall Display Have you seen the fall décor in front of the clubhouse? Thanks to Margaret Fox, Barb Harcharic, Saundra Robertson & Pat Schneider , HP has a lovely seasonal display. They were joined by incidental passer-by-neighbors. First came Chrys Matthews who said, "Let me send my husband to help." And help Don Matthews did with his mallet and braces. Along came Millie Anderson and her dog to provide advice and counsel. Then came Bob Aliberti who was frozen in awe-struck silence with the quality of work. Even a Brickman employee offered his trimming expertise. Also please go inside the clubhouse to view Pat Schneider’s indoor display. Submitted by Barb Harcharic
