Here we are embarking on a new season (my fifth already!) We have just completed our successful Welcome Back Parties. How heart warming to see your\u00a0smiling faces and your lively chatter as you meet and greet your friends and neighbors. And don\u2019t you just love the clear skies and sunshine?? Many of\u00a0you are still arriving. Welcome! Now get ready for the biggest and best season ever!!<\/p>\n
Starting November 1st the majority of our clubs and classes will resume. Have you decided what you would like to be involved in this year? Whether it\u00a0be sports, or arts and crafts, or just learning how to play a new card game. (Try Triple Hand and Foot on Tuesdays), you can sharpen your mind and\u00a0body. Seventy is the \u201cnew 60\u201d they say, so why not also feel 10 years younger!! Check the bulletin boards and power point on channel 6 as well as\u00a0checking my newsletter or online for a complete schedule of events.<\/p>\n
Thank you to all our leaders and volunteers for your commitment to excellence. Because of your leadership you make it possible to have all our clubs\u00a0and classes. I encourage you to think about offering your talent either to help out or lead. Many who have volunteered in leadership positions are\u00a0retiring this year and moving on to new opportunities. We are grateful to all the retiring volunteers. Please see me or your present leader if you\u00a0would like to volunteer. Who knows what you can bring to the table? Twenty year ago I was a guest visiting my Mother at Silveridge. I remember\u00a0attending a dinner show and when I walked in there was Lou all dressed up in her hat and jewelry. She made me feel so welcome with her smile and hugs.
\nShe did not know me but she made a lasting impression. I wanted to be like Lou to everyone I met. God had a plan. Little did I know that He would put\u00a0me in the position as Activity Director where I could strive to emulate Lou through my work. One person can make such a difference in other people\u2019s\u00a0lives. Let us never forget that. We will miss you Lou. Your legacy will live on in our hearts forever!<\/p>\n
My sympathy to the families of all those who have lost loved ones over the summer. The names are published in this newsletter as well as o n the\u00a0memorial board across from the post office.<\/p>\n
Do I have some exciting news for you! There will be some changes coming with the current newsletter. Starting in December my printed version will be\u00a0shortened and there will be more information online on the soon to be newly revised Silveridge web pages! I now have a partner editor, Dale Dauten who\u00a0will be editing the Silveridge Sun online. He is a fabulous writer and columnist. Do check out the October and November online newsletter and the\u00a0interesting and informative article about our new GM, Rhonda Ciacco. You may want to join the \u201cWriter\u2019s Group\u201d. Email dale@dauten.com. And don\u2019t forget\u00a0to submit a park motto. You can bring your suggestions to us in activities or submit online.<\/p>\n
