Dear TGO Community, This is the Halloween Issue of The Happenings, so please don’t be frightened as you might find a few Goblins sprinkled throughout the issue. This issue also introduces you to Musa Alici, our new Food and Beverage Manager. Musa and the entire Blue Heron team are getting ready to serve you some outstanding food and service this season. We look forward to your feedback. These past few weeks we have made investments in our community through training opportunities for our CSA staff. I’m happy to report that Mike O’Neal, Grounds Manager, and Carolyn Banke, HR Representative, completed a two-day Safety Leadership Academy in Orlando, FL. This academy trained them how to provide safety leadership to the CSA staff in topics such as accident prevention, workers compensation, accident investigations and safety audits. Recreation Manager Carmella Galley and four of her Recreation team members (Les, Scott, Gage, Danielle) completed the Certified Pool Operator (CPO) training. I joined this team for training. We now have six CSA staff members who are state-certified to operate our pools and spas. Finally, Phillip Wolf, our Aquatics and Drainage supervisor, completed a certification in heavy equipment operations. This past week our Board of Directors approved some changes to our Rules and Regulations regarding disposal of trash, organic yard debris and recycling in our maintenance yard. Details of these changes were sent out in the Chairman’s Notes last Friday, but I will summarize here: We’ve received many complaints about the safety and overall poor appearance of our trash collection area; therefore, the Board will not allow dumping of large bulk items onto the ground in the yard. If your garbage or debris cannot fit into the trash compactor or the courtesy open-top dumpster, then you must take those large objects to the county collection facilities located just a few miles away in Titusville. This rule change will be enforced through video-surveillance. CSA is reconfiguring the bins in the maintenance yard to support this change, and moving our vegetative debris pit away from the bins. The goal here is to clean up the maintenance yard and make it a more respectable reflection of our premier RV resort. You can find a complete list of the new rules on page 18 of this issue. Finally, a quick update for those who look forward to using the Oak Cove bathhouse. This bathhouse was closed in September for renovation. We can expect this bathhouse to re-open on November 7. Originally our goal was to open mid to late October, but as with many projects, there was a delay with one of our contractors. Our countertop installer is telling us now that he is back on schedule for installation next week. We look forward to receiving your feedback on this renovation. I’ve peeked into this refreshed facility, and our buildings team has done a great job again! Sincerely,

Billy Specht CSA Manager

Six members of our Recreation team, including Billy, completed a twoday Certified Pool Operator (CPO) training. We now have six CSA staff members who are state-certified to operate our pools and spas.

REGENERATE YOUR BATTERIES! Now available at Golf Carts Unlimited What is Sulfation?

Sulfation, the accumulation of hard lead sulfate crystals, is the main reason for capacity and efficiency loss in lead-acid batteries. Sulfate crystals can develop rapidly, preventing your batteries from accepting a full charge. Over time, sulfation crystals rob battery capacity. As a result, the battery needs more charge more often with a shorter runtime. As sulfation increases, so does your need to replace your batteries. Desulfate to reduce costs.

We Now Have the Capability to Reverse the Sulfation Process!

Here is how it works...

• Increase Your Battery Life-Span • Return Lost Capacity to Your Used Batteries • Keep Your Battery Pack(s) in Sulfate-Free Condition • Save Money on Purchasing New Batteries

Schedule a time to bring your cart in. We will hook it up to our Desulfator Machine. We will need your cart for 48 hours. Cost for a desulfination process including a complete diagnostic report - $250

Our Regeneration Process helps break down and dissolve the lead sulfate crystals, restoring the battery's performance. We will provide you with a detailed health report for each individual battery, including your battery pack’s performance both before and after the regeneration process. This process will extend the life of your batteries for multiple years, especially if you establish a yearly maintenance program. All work is done on premises at Golf Carts Unlimited. Call to make an appointment...

321-268-4882

Bring your cart to us and we'll provide a ride back to your home - and drop your cart off when complete.

AED Basics (Automated External Defibrillator)

Have Someone Call 9-1-1 While You Operate AED The Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a portable electronic device that diagnoses incorrect heart rhythm patterns that could potentially be life threatening. The device treats the condition with electrical shocks. AED use requires minimal training because an electronic voice prompts the user through each step. If you are helping a person who collapsed and you’re unsure if a heart attack is the reason, don’t hesitate to use the AED. Every minute counts. The device determines if the patient needs an electrical shock or not. Simply place the AED pads on the patient’s bare skin, one on the right upper chest and the other on their lower left side. No one else should be touching the patient because false readings could result. The AED will advise you, the device operator, what to do next. TGO has seven AEDs located at CSA buildings.

Meet Musa Blue Heron's Food and Beverage Manager

The Blue Heron Restaurant has a new Food and Beverage Manager... say hello to Musa Alici! When you first meet Musa, “gregarious” is the first word that comes to mind. He has a great gravely voice backed up with a big smile. He exudes confidence and it won’t take you long to learn that he has an extensive background in the restaurant industry. Born and raised in Turkey with a Turkish mother and an Italian father, Musa’s very name means Moses. He’s got a remarkable 47 years of experience in the food and beverage world, dating all the way back to when he was just 11 years old, working during his summer breaks. He’s a globetrotter, having traveled across five continents, and has worked with some incredible people and corporations. In his earlier years, Musa learned his craft at a variety of restaurants throughout Europe. He eventually came to America and landed in Boca Raton, where he served as a Dining Room Manager at one restaurant and then a General Manager at another. His culinary journey eventually took him to the northern corner of the U.S. where he became a co-owner and operator of the White Rainbow Restaurant and Martini Bar in Gloucester, Massachusetts. “This was a beautiful full-service restaurant that seated 115 customers, including a martini bar,” Musa proudly explained. “I completed the design of the restaurant adding an upscale bar and patio, with an indoor waterfall that earned awards such as “Best Place to Kiss,” “Most Romantic Restaurant North of Boston” and “Wine Spectator Award of Excellence” for four consecutive years.”

Musa found his way back to Florida where he created an award winning franchise concept which he sold after two years. He then opened another restaurant in Vero Beach before finding his way to The Great Outdoors.

He’s a globetrotter, having traveled across five continents, and has worked with some incredible people and corporations. Musa is a man of many talents. He’s skilled in recipe and menu development, crafting new cocktails, implementing restaurant operations manuals, creating employee training programs, and managing everything from food procurement to payroll. For a guy who started out as a line cook, he has gained a world of experience.” Now, he’s set his sights on the Blue Heron and its patrons. “Right now, we are finalizing the new Blue Heron menu which I plan to roll out after November 10,” Musa shares. The new menu is designed with the preferences of our guests in mind, featuring pub fare and smaller Continued on page 42

The Roof Over Your Head

By Ed Brown

It’s True. Shed roofs, home roofs, RV roofs and all styles of roofs. They all are exposed to the weather. They all have the potential for leakage from rain or snow melt. Often that potential is obvious to the cursing homeowner. Sometimes it takes a good leak detective, also called a roofer, to track down the source of the leak. Often, where it is dripping on your new sofa, is not below the leak in the roof. It can be a maddening situation and well worth the cost of hiring a good roofer to track it down and fix it. Now, roof leaks often put water in contact with electrical wires in the roof, walls, attic floor and appliances. Wires are waterproof, but they are ever so attractive to rodents (rats, squirrels and bats) with big appetites for electrical wire insulation and big families. Fire Prevention Week was one week in October. All of October is National “Fire Protection Month!” With that in mind, we should focus on your home’s most fire-prone area during a wildfire. Surprise, it’s your roof! The culprit this time is not sneaky critters, it is roof trash. Sparks and ignited debris on roofs can be lifted and carried to gutters packed with leaves and to “roof valleys” anywhere the roof lines change. So, the periodic cleaning of gutters and dried tree trash is another maintenance chore. Even replacement of damaged roof vent screening to keep sparks and racoons out would be a Firewise use of your time. Home roofs come in several types: 1. Asphalt Shingle: This is the most common and the least expensive roof covering. I have seen the shingles stripped from a roof by winds of far less than hurricane velocity (75 mph). Life expectancy for a new shingle roof could be 15 years. There are few original construction shingle roofs in TGO that have not ever been replaced! 2. Architectural asphalt shingles: life expectancy 15-20 years. 3. Metal Roofs can last 20 to 50 years. 4. Tile Roofs can still be effective after 50 years. If planning to re-roof, get at least three quotes from roofers in your area. Beware of out-of-area contractors! Check with your neighbors for feedback on their recent re-roofing experiences. Ultimately you will be comparing the cost, the life span of the new roof, the fire resistance and the resistance to animal-caused damage.

Be Firewise TGO... Be Safe! Thanks to Ron Wagner and Butch Jones, residents of TGO, for technical input on this subject!

Meet Musa

Blue Heron's Food and Beverage Manager portions. You can expect exciting new dishes, daily soups, and we will even be introducing a children’s menu.” Musa understands the balance of ordering enough and not too much, all while providing a menu that will hopefully appeal to everyone. He understands how to utilize his ingredients in many different ways so that waste as well as inventory is minimized. Musa is currently looking for a few more employees for the kitchen and is working with our current wait staff. “I am a big believer in education, continued Musa. “The more our staff knows, the better our customer’s dining experience will be.” He wants the staff to become more knowledgeable about the food, having them taste the daily specials so they will be able to explain them to the customers. The conversation changed to the overall appearance and atmosphere of the Blue Heron. As you know, it’s fairly drab with undecorated gray walls. “I can see some beautiful, nostalgic black and white prints on the walls,” says Musa. “Some classic prints of vintage golf photos, some tennis shots and, of course, nature images. We have a lot going on in The Great Outdoors and our restaurant would be a great place to showcase these activities.” The Blue Heron Restaurant and our Golf Course are the heart and soul of TGO. As its owners, we need to support these establishments as much as possible to assure their continued success. We encourage you to stop by the Blue Heron, introduce yourself to Musa, we’re sure you’ll agree he’s motivated to take our dining experience to the next level.

The Blue Heron Crew 42

Hi. I’m Beth. I have been serving at the BH for 5 years. It’s not just where I work... it’s my family. I am looking forward to another fun year. Outside of work I enjoy my kids and my grandkids.

Hi. My name is Brandy. I have been at The Blue Heron since February. I love our customers and fellow co-workers. I wake up every day excited to come to work. Outside of work, I enjoy reading and watching Korean dramas. I have been married for 33 years and I have 4 kids and 4 grandkids and 2 great grandkids and one great, great grandkid. Oh yeah... I love trivia!

NO!!! You're not looking at a wall in the Post Oﬃce! But you are looking at our current waitstaﬀ at the Blue Heron. These ladies are doing a great job under Beth's leadership. They are all enthusiastic and willing to go the extra mile to make your dining experience as pleasurable as possible.

Hi, my name is Danielle you also may know me as Danni! I’ve worked at the Blue Heron for two years and I absolutely love working here because the people are some of the best people you’ll meet. They have become part of my family as have my co-workers! I grew up here in Titusville, I am 33 years old, I have 4 kids, Kyla-16, Ashlynn-14, Dallas-3 and Grayson-2. Definitely NO more kids for me!! Outside of work I spend most of my time at home with my family. When I get time away from home I’m a very adventurous person. I love music and love to dance like Elaine on Sienfield, as I’m sure most of you have seen! I plan on being at the Blue Heron as long as I can! Hi, my name is Maddie and I’m new to the Blue Heron. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my dogs. I also have a professional duck walking business for those duck owners who don’t have time to walk them themselves. I can’t wait to meet everyone who comes in for lunch or dinner. Just don’t order the duck when I’m serving.

Hey! My name is Nina. I’ve been a server at the Blue Heron for about six months. The Blue Heron has proven to be one of the best places to work, because the community we serve is wonderful, and my co-workers are the best people I have been blessed to spend time and work with. The people here both customers and employees - are the reason that I genuinely love my job. Outside of work, I am a mother of two little girls and a full-time college student, attending the Academy of Art University for 3D Animation and Visual Effects. My photo here is actually AI generated. Hello my name is Courtney, I’ve been at the Blue Heron for only a couple of weeks and I love it, y’all are all amazing. I love how this job works as a team and really shows appreciation to one another. I’m 27, I have no kids and in my free time I just like to have a good time and chill. I’m super nice and always try and do what I can to help. I plan on staying here as long as I can. I really appreciate our staff.

Hi, my name is Katie! I started at The Blue Heron in May and have quickly found way more here than just a job. I grew up in East Orlando and have lived in Titusville for a few years. I earned my Bachelors in Communication from USF in 2021. I love my two fur babies and enjoy anything outdoors.

Hi! My name is Amanda, and I have been at the Blue Heron for about two months. I have two daughters I love very much. In my downtime, I enjoy spending time with my family and raising buffaloes, llamas and alpacas at a local ranch. Hey! I’m Sarra, I’ve been serving at the Blue Heron since August and I love my job! Everyone is so friendly and has made me feel just like family. I’m super excited to see what the future holds for me here! At home I have a beautiful one year old daughter. Before I worked at the Blue Heron I was a stay at home mom, so, needless to say, my baby is my whole world! Hello, I’m Heidi. I’m originally from New Hampshire. I’ve been in the service industry for 30+ years and I truly love what I do! In my free time I enjoy boating, shrimping, volunteering for our local school’s sports programs (go War Eagles), and spending time with my family, especially my 2 grandsons. My mantra is “Happiness is a choice” ... and serving y’all fills my heart with joy.

Hi, I’m Dawn. My husband and I retired to Florida in 2015. This is my third season at TGO. When not spending summers in Maine, I stay busy golfing with the LGA, traveling, and spoiling my granddaughter and niece.

Funny Thing Is… Dentists Are Nothing To Smile About

Visiting the dentist is nothing to smile about. Oh, the doc and the staff are very nice and, if it was just a visit, I would enjoy it so much more. When you walk in the office you are greeted by a lovely young receptionist with a perfect smile, of course, and immediately you are put at ease. You check in, have a seat but you notice that everyone else in the waiting room looks like they just received an audit notice from the IRS. NOBODY is smiling. Then you hear the high pitched whine of a small drill in the other room. Now you look like the IRS is after you, too. Even if you’ve never sat in a dentist chair, your natural reaction to the sound of that drill is, “Oh, this can’t be good.” You’ll find out in a few minutes that’s so true. But first you must be pleasantly greeted by the attractive hygienist, also with a perfect smile. Don’t get too comfortable. She may like you but this is not a date. Unlike that former plus one that used to torture you during your time together, this one will do it with weapons. You can’t help but notice the little metal tray with all kinds of pointy razor sharp tools. Uh oh. For the next 30 minutes you try not to wince, whine, or sweat, but you’re only so strong. That lovely young girl now feels like a middle linebacker busting you in the mouth. Ouch! You’re so relieved when you hear the words “all done,” but the fun has just begun. The next room has a tray with even more weapons including more than one of those drills you heard before. Now you have two or three people attacking, one of them being the doc who also has a perfect smile. I’m not falling for that anymore. I know this is gonna hurt. You think that drill sounded bad? When they press it to your teeth your whole head vibrates. I guess that’s to loosen the rest of your teeth so you’ll come back to visit again. Then you hear the words again, “all done.” Whew, thank God. But, as if you haven’t suffered enough, there’s just one more thing. On the way out you’re given a bill that could have covered your next car payment. Man, I can’t wait to be invited back for my next visit! NOT! - Dr. Sammy -

You Know About Frankenstein, The Mummy

Skunk Ape VS Deep within the impenetrable, sweltering swamps of the Florida Everglades, a legend looms large - the Florida Skunk Ape. The Sunshine State harbors more than just its share of mysteries, but few tales are as pervasive and unsettling as that of the Skunk Ape. It is a creature that has captured the imagination of locals, researchers, and thrill-seekers alike. The legend of the Florida Skunk Ape reaches far back into the annals of indigenous and regional folklore. The Seminole and Miccosukee tribes, who have called the Everglades home for centuries, recount tales of a monstrous, ape-like creature inhabiting the inhospitable wilderness. Its stench is unmistakable - a foul and nauseating odor that has given the creature its name. Similar to his west coast relative known as Big Foot, the Skunk Ape is typically described as a massive, humanoid ape, standing around seven to eight feet tall. Its hair, thick and matted, is a deep reddish-brown or black, providing natural camouflage amidst the swamp's tangled undergrowth. Witnesses recount eyes that gleam with an eerie, amber-like luminescence, adding an extra layer of drea.

While skeptics may dismiss the Skunk Ape as pure fiction, locals have shared chilling accounts of their run-ins with this cryptid, and the tales are nothing short of horrifying. Here are some of the ghostly and harrowing things for which the Skunk Ape is known: Stench of Doom: As the name suggests, the Florida Skunk Ape is notorious for the unbearable stench it carries. Witnesses often liken it to a noxious combination of rotting garbage and sulfur, a smell that lingers long after the creature has passed. Nightmarish Howls: Deep in the heart of the Everglades, the Skunk Ape emits a bone-chilling, guttural howl that pierces the stillness of the night. Elusive and Stealthy: The Skunk Ape is a master of stealth and evasion. It's rarely seen by human eyes, and those who claim to have seen it report that it quickly vanishes into the dense underbrush. Unearthly Strength: The Skunk Ape possesses incredible strength, capable of tearing through thick vegetation and leaving behind unmistakable signs of its presence. Midnight Marauder: There are accounts of the Skunk Ape raiding campsites, food stores, and even homes near the swamps. Locals speak of devoured livestock with only skeletal remains.

Babies Beware: One of the most unsettling legends about the Skunk Ape's is it's attraction to human infants. Some believe it may be drawn to the scent of the babies, but no matter what it is, numerous reports of missing babies have been reported throughout the Everglades area. Over the years, numerous sightings and eerie howls in the night have fueled the belief in the Skunk Ape's existence. Yet, the Skunk Ape remains an enigma, its legend as potent as ever. Whether real or mythical, the Florida Skunk Ape has left an indelible mark on the collective consciousness of those who dare venture into the dark heart of the Everglades.

and The Werewolf, But Do You know About...

The Wendigo? The Wendigo is a creature from the folklore of several Native American tribes, particularly those of the Algonquian language group, including the Ojibwa, Cree, and Algonquin peoples. It is a malevolent and supernatural being associated with extreme cold, hunger, and cannibalism. The Wendigo is a deeply ingrained part of indigenous North American culture and is often considered a cautionary tale and a representation of the consequences of greed and human weakness. The Wendigo is often described as an emaciated, gaunt, and towering figure. It is said to be incredibly tall and thin, with elongated limbs, sunken eyes, and sharp, jagged teeth. It has a heart of ice or is sometimes depicted as having no heart at all. The Wendigo is associated with extreme cold, frozen landscapes, and harsh winters. It is believed to be a creature of the coldest and most desolate regions. One of the most prominent themes associated with the Wendigo is its insatiable hunger for human flesh. The creature is often linked to stories of people who resort to cannibalism during times of famine or extreme hardship. In some versions of the legend, merely resorting to cannibalism is seen as a transformation into a Wendigo. According to the lore, a person can become a Wendigo if they engage in cannibalism, even out of necessity. This transformation is often portrayed as a curse, where the aﬄicted individual becomes a monstrous, uncontrollable predator. In addition to its physical attributes, the Wendigo is often used to explore the psychological horror of hunger, isolation, and the moral dilemmas faced by individuals in extreme survival situations. The Wendigo is typically associated with forests, particularly remote and desolate regions, where it lurks and hunts for potential victims. The legend of the Wendigo carries cultural significance for many indigenous communities. It is often used to teach lessons about the consequences of selfishness, greed, and the importance of respecting nature.

The Wendigo has also been featured in modern horror literature, films, and video games, often as a creature of terror and madness. The Wendigo legend has endured for generations and continues to be a powerful symbol in Native American storytelling and a source of inspiration for horror fiction. It embodies themes of isolation, hunger, and the consequences of violating cultural and moral taboos, making it a rich and enduring element of folklore.
