‘Tis “In Season” in Del Tura The “Season” began with the Halloween Dance and Costume Party followed by our Tree Lighting and Holiday program. What a wonderful event! It included our Del Tura Singers, the story of the Nativity, a Del Tura version of The Nutcracker that featured a cast ranging in age from four years to eighty plus years, the Hanukkah story, and a visit from Santa. All of this directed by our Del Tura Reparatory Director, Jacqueline Keen, to whom we offer a heartfelt “thank you” for all of her time and effort. See photos related to this event on another page inside this issue of The Tower. Del Tura Reparatory Director, Jacqueline Keen

From the President’s Desk

By the time you receive this issue of The Tower, 2014 will be just a couple of days away, and that means you’re almost shopped out, decorated out, and partied out: in other words, it’s January: when you have to come to terms with how much you ate, how much you spent, and how much it really irritates you that all those decorations never seem to fit back into the box they came out of. Worst of all, you may have to turn the heat on. January heralds change. The HOA office will have moved to its new home at 18571 Avenida Escorial. The digital sign should be working properly, allowing the removal of those rather unsightly cardboard signs at the intersection. The HOA Board will be gearing up not only for the February elections, but also the announcement of the new Couple and Person of the Year. What we hope will not change is the dues for HOA membership. After much discussion of finances, the Board has concluded that if we can increase our membership number to one thousand, and barring any unforeseen major expenses, we can afford to keep 2014 dues at $12.00. The Del Tura HOA yearly membership fee is low by comparison to other communities’, and it hasn’t been raised in a number of years. So, you’ll be hearing reminders at Tuesday Coffees

about the benefits of HOA membership, and it will be in everyone’s best interest to help recruit new members. No promises, especially for 2015, but for now, we plan to stay at $12.00—another good reason to renew your membership early. I think you’ll also see some variations in the types of activities available. As our population’s profile evolves, bringing in more residents who still work full or parttime, the Board is seeing a definite change both in the amount of time people are willing to volunteer and the types of activities they find entertaining. This doesn’t mean we are suddenly going to see flash mobs in the Clubhouse or break-dancing in the streets, but it does mean some old favorites will be joined by new events. Any HOA member interested in being a candidate for the HOA Board in the

upcoming February election should contact Louise Wilcox at louisew5530@gmail. com or at (239) 731-8474. I will close first with a reminder: please, please be sure HOA has your e-mail and your summer addresses. And finally, I don’t want the year to end without taking the opportunity to personally and publicly express my heartfelt gratitude to the officers and members of the HOA Board of Directors. You’ve been the best of the best, and I thank you. Happy New Year to you all.

Send Well Wishes to Friends in the Local Hospitals

By Sherry Plisch For your information: You can send your “Well Wishes” to your friends who are in the hospital by going to the website: www.leememorial.org. Click on send a Well Wish to a Patient. Then you may choose from a list of hospitals. But you will need the room number of the person to whom you are sending the greeting. (Just call any of the hospitals, day or night and they will give you the room number.) They will print out your message and hand deliver them to the patient. They do this several times a day and it is free. This is such a nice program, especially when you would like to visit, but just can’t get there and you want the patient to know you are thinking of them.

Financial Resolutions for the New Year About 45% of Americans usually make New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s resolutions, according to a survey from the University of Scranton. But the same survey shows that only 8% of us actually keep our resolutions. Perhaps this low success rate isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t such a tragedy when our resolutions involve things like losing a little weight or learning a foreign language. But when we make financial resolutions â&#x20AC;&#x201D; resolutions that, if achieved, could significantly help us in our pursuit of our important long-term goals â&#x20AC;&#x201D; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clearly worthwhile to make every effort to follow through. So, what sorts of financial resolutions might you consider? Here are a few possibilities: Boost your contributions to your retirement plans. Each year, try to put in a little more to your IRA and your 401(k) or other employersponsored retirement plans. These tax-advantaged accounts are good options for your retirement savings strategy. Reduce your debts. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not always easy to reduce your debts, but make it a goal to finish 2014 with a smaller debt load than you had going into the new year. The lower your monthly debt payments, the more money youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to invest for retirement, college for your children (or grandchildren) and other important objectives. Build your emergency fund. Work on building an â&#x20AC;&#x153;emergency fundâ&#x20AC;? containing six to 12 monthsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; worth of living expenses, with the money held in a liquid account that offers a high degree of preservation of principal. Without such a fund, you might be forced to dip into your longterm investments to pay for emergencies, such as a new furnace, a major car repair, and so on. You might not be able to finish creating your emergency fund in one year, but contribute as much as you can afford. Plan for your protection needs. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t already have the proper amounts of life and disability insurance in place, put it on your â&#x20AC;&#x153;To Doâ&#x20AC;? list for 2014. Also, if you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t taken steps to protect yourself from the considerable costs of long-term care, such as an extended nursing home stay, consult with your financial professional, who can suggest the appropriate protection or investment vehicles. You may never need such care, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a chance you may not want to take â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the longer you wait, the more expensive your protection options may become. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overreact to market volatility. Too many people head to the investment â&#x20AC;&#x153;sidelinesâ&#x20AC;? during market downturns. But if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not invested, then you miss any potential market gainsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the biggest gains are often realized at the early stages of the rally. Focus on the long term. You can probably check your investment balance online, which means you can do it every day, or even several times a day â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but should you? If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re following a strategy thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appropriate for your needs, goals, risk tolerance and time horizon, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re already doing what you should be doing in the long run. So thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no need to stress yourself over the short-term movements that show up in your investment statements. Do whatever you can to turn these New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s resolutions into realities. Your efforts could pay off well beyond 2014.

family moved to Florida when she was ten years old. She received BS in Education from Barry University in Miami and a MA in Religious Education a few years later. Mary has served in several different career fields through the years, including being a Teacher and Principal. She retired in April 2012, after fourteen years as Evaluator and then Supervisor at SW Florida Safety Counsel. Mary eagerly talks about how in July 2012 she took out her notes from many years of journaling and began writing her book: “Pathway Through Life with God” under her pseudonym Elizabeth Lablond. She says, “It reveals my life story and shows how people can handle challenges that we all go through with the help of God.” The book was published earlier this year by XULON PRESS. You can order a copy from 1-855-519-1660 or directly from Mary by calling 239-699-3774. Mary finished the interview by firmly stating, “I still enjoy living here in Del Tura with the quiet and friendly atmosphere!”

This is the time of year that many of us make resolutions which we later break before we reach the end of January. That doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean that we should not attempt to make and keep resolutions we believe will make us happy. The quote above is good advice on how to go about becoming, or remaining, a happy person. A balance between the past, the present, and the future seems to be good advice on how to become or remain a happy person. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m resolving to keep this quote in mind as we begin 2014 and, hopefully, throughout the year. The Past: I will remember all the wonderful Del Tura and Good Timer friends with whom I have shared some wonderful experiences. Recent memories include the Nite at the Races and the Golf Cart Parade which I chaired with my cousin Deb Winsor, and which events many Good Timers attended: The Broadway Palm Holiday Show, hosted by Louise Dodge - thank you again, Louise. The Good Timers Holiday

Christmas Dinner at our own Fountain Grille where we celebrated the birthdays of Gloria Ellis, Alice Harris, and Serafina Goncalves, Linda Leeper, Nancy Skorlinski, and Brenda Blasie. The Christmas Tree Lighting and show, and the New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eve Celebration in the beautifully decorated Starlight Ballroom, which was also the setting of so many wonderful shows and dances. Two former Del Tura residents and Good Timer members recently celebrated birthdays Helen Stormer celebrated her 90th, and Josephine Rendo, Anna Incorvaiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mom, celebrated her 107th. We send special birthday wishes to these friends. We were pleased to welcome Pat Clemens back at the December meeting. We are still missing Gloria Ellis at our meetings and dinners, and hope she will feel well enough to join is in the new year. Speaking of the December meeting, our vice-president, Joan Whaley, chaired the meeting since Peg McTernan, our president, was out of town. Joan did a wonderful job. Be careful, Joan, you know what happens when you do something well - you get the job! No worries, Joan, you can handle it. We are very proud to have

a published author as a member of the Good Timers. Joan J. Johnson resides here in Del Tura and has published a number of non-fiction books and has written a book of fiction entitled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Salamander Crossing,â&#x20AC;? a thriller. Some of the book clubs in the community have read the book and had Joan as a guest at their meetings. Having read the book, which is available on Amazon, and being present at one of the club meetings, I can report that the book is full of suspense and well-developed characters. Hearing from Joan regarding how she developed the plot, etc., is fascinating. Eat your heart out, John Grisham! The Future: Some of the events the Good Timers will share include meetings the second Tuesday of each month at 5:00 p.m. at the Clubhouse; Sweets Party (February 11); the Road Rally (April 10) and the Kentucky Derby (May 3). Mark your calendar and attend the monthly meetings, and/or look on the bulletin board in the lower level of the clubhouse across from the Pub for further details. As always, newcomers are welcome. All singles and widowed individuals are encouraged to join. Call Pat Clemens (567-0716), or Lyn Bailey (543-9020) for further membership information. The Present: I have left the present for last because I believe that it is the most important. When I reflect on the present, I think of how fortunate I am to be sitting here in my home in beautiful Del Tura, at this moment surrounded by family and friends with whom I can share memories with, and plans for future good times. Wishing you a Happy and Healthy New Year, filled with fond memories of the Past, happy Present moments, and exciting Future endeavors to anticipate and enjoy.

Back in 1785, William Cowper said, “Variety is the very spice of life that gives it all its flavor.” Based on the feedback we have received from Del Turians concerning types of entertainment preferred, that still appears to be true. Therefore, the entertainment presented this season will consist of a variety of shows and dances, and music, including oldies, jazz, country, and comedy, etc. Our successful New Year’s Eve Show/Dance featured an internationally famous jazz singer, Katt Hefner. The next show which will be on Friday, January 17, features both music and comedy. Maryellen Hooper is a renowned comedian who has appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Dennis Miller Show, and the Martin Short Show. She has had her own special on Comedy Central and has been awarded “Fe-

male Comedian of the Year” at the American Comedy Awards. Glen Johnson will also join us on January 17, and share his musical talents. Glen has opened for performers such as The Oak Ridge Boys, Pat Boone, Larry Gatlin, and Ray Price. If Johnny Cash, Conway Twitty, or Elvis songs are among your favorites, you will be treated to Glen’s rendition of some of them at the show. Tickets for this show go on sale Monday, January 6, starting at 7:30 a.m. in the Poinciana Ballroom for HOA members only the first day of sale. Tickets will be sold starting at 7:30 a.m. on both January 7 and January 14, before Tuesday coffee. Ticket sales are open to all on these two dates. This show is HOA sponsored, and there are no refunds. Please note the new ticket pricing will be in effect for this show. Non-HOA members, the ticket price will be $18.00, while the price per ticket for HOA

members will remain at $16.00. Information regarding other up-coming shows this season is included on a notice in this issue of the Tower so that you can plan ahead. Note that the tickets for the Friday, February 14 Valentine Dance starring Del Tura favorite, Brylcream, will go on sale before coffee on Tuesday, January 28 for HOA members only starting at 7:30 a.m. in the Starlight Ballroom. Tickets will also be sold to all before Tuesday Coffee starting at 7:30 a.m. on February 4 and 11. Ticket prices for HOA members for this dance are $8.00 for members and $10.00 for nonmembers. This is a very popular group with Del Turians, and the Valentine’s Dance is a yearly favorite, so plan accordingly. This event is also HOA sponsored, and there are no refunds. Please join us for the shows and dances to “spice-up” 2014. Happy New Year!!!

News From Hometown

By Jim Marlow, Community Manager

2/14

www.hollowaychumblerdental.com

First and foremost I would like to thank everyone who attended the Del Tura Video and Hometown resident appreciation parties! It was wonderful to see everyone having a great time and man can you folks dance! I would also give a special thank you to your Assistant Community Manager Julie Rath who organized the events and made sure they came off without a hitch. I would also like to thank Nick and his staff at the pub for their help as we couldn’t have done it without them. As a favor to me, please tell both Julie and Nick thank you for me the next time you see them. Speaking of talented people, I attended the Tree Lighting Ceremony and all I can say is WOW! I was expecting just to hear a few holiday words and then the light-

ing. Instead, I was surprised by a holiday pageant! I am impressed daily by the number of talented people we have in Del Tura. Congratulations to all who were part of the show and thank you for giving me a holiday memory I will not soon forget. I would like to remind everyone that you have until the end of January to get your bar code for your vehicles at the reduced price. We will be making it our standard operating procedure that all residents have a bar code for their cars. This will help us reach our security and safety goals for the front gate. Your support is greatly appreciated. You may have noticed that the HOA’s new electronic sign is up and operational at the 4 - way stop on Gran Via and Las Palmas. Keep an eye on it when you come into the community for special events and announcements. This is going to be a great tool mov-

ing forward to help keep the residents of Del Tura informed of important information they need to know. We have had a very successful year with regard to home sales. During 2013 we not only saw an increase in homes sold but we also saw an increase in prices. Come see Betty or Jack at the sales office if you would like to list your home or if you’re thinking about purchasing another home in the community. Finally I would be remiss if I didn’t acknowledge the great efforts of Jim O’Brien and the decorating committee. Del Tura’s entrance is the best looking community entrance on 41! Great job! I would like to wish each of you a Happy and Healthy New Year and I’m looking forward to an exciting 2014 here at Del Tura!

Fruit Trees

An update of our fruit tree project and an outlook for the future: The question of why our citrus trees are in trouble is Florida Wide: Here is the story: The trees are Symptomatic for greening and insect damage. The latter is of no significance. Citrus greening is also known as HLB (Huanglongbing) disease. The disease is caused by a bacterium vectored by an insect known as the citrus psyllid. There are many beneficial insects that feed on psyllids to control their populations. Virtually all citrus species, hybrids and cultivars are affected by the bacterium. Many trees become unproductive when affected. A typically citrus greening symptom is blotchy mottle leaves. This is a variegated chlorosis or yel-

lowing of the leaf that is not symmetrical on either side of the center of the leaf. The symptoms on the two halves of the leaf are not mirror images of one another. So far, there is no cure for citrus greening once a tree is infected. You can try to prune, fertilize and water but the trees are not going to survive. This info is not based on my infamous wisdom but copied and edited from one of our local newspapers and is intended for your education and information only. Let’s hope for a fruitful year for the needy! Your FISH fruit pickers committee chairs.

ATTENTION NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH & SAFETY PATROL MEMBERS

As of July 2013, the Del Tura Safety Patrol Program was discontinued. Please remove your Safety Patrol sign from your golf carts. They are no longer needed. I would like to thank all of you who participated in our Safety Patrol Program. I would not have been able to do it without your help. I want to especially thank Linda Storma who started the Neighborhood Watch and Safety Patrol program over six years ago, also

Eddy Highfill who took over for two years while I served on the Board of Directors. I then took it over after Eddy became ill. With the help of Linda Storma taking care of my computerized member rosters, my job was made easier. Thank you for helping to keep Del Tura a safe place for us to live in. There is still a Neighborhood Watch Program. It’s just a matter of all of us looking out for each other homes and neighbors.

If you see something that is not quite what it should be, call Sheriff’s Office at 477-1000. If it is a matter of life or death, call 911. Again, it has been an honor and a privilege to have served as your Neighborhood Watch and Safety Patrol chairperson. Thank you all. Henry Moreau

SPORTS PAGE Friday Shuffleboard League

By Jack Blevons By the time you read this, the holidays are over for another year and we are into 2014. Janet and I both hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas and will have a good New Year. We hope that a lot of you got to see and enjoy our decorations that we had up in our yard again. Now we can spend a week taking them all down and storing them in our garage for another year. A lot of work but knowing it was enjoyed by so many, that makes all the work worth it. We do it for all of you. Anyhow, after today’s play, December 6, the standings are as follows: The A-flight leaders are Jack/Janet Blevons in 1st place at 12/3 followed by Bob Crawford/ Ben Hargraves and Fred and Car-

olyn Brueggemann tied for 2nd place at 11/4. The B-flight leaders are Dave and Nancy Denny in 1st place at 11/4, followed by Chuck and Marcella Carothers in 2nd place at 10/5, and the teams of Lynne Sabel/Barb Jones and Joe Vigilante/John Eck are tied for 3rd place at 8/7. I would like to welcome some new players into our league this year. Leon and Mary Lou Buss are a new team this year that were subs last year. John Eck, who is playing with Joe Vigilante, and his wife Marlene Eck, who is playing as a sub. We are also glad to have Jo Ann Liddle back again and she is partnered with Bob Lawson who also is new this year. Dave Denny, who also was a sub, is now partnered with his wife Nancy as a new team and

Judy Lessard, who also subbed last year now plays regular on a team with Gail Hargraves. Last but not least, Cindy Forrest who was a sub last year and now is partnered with Mary Pimental. Welcome aboard to all. I don’t think I missed any. Now that we are into January we have a lot of renters back and also it’s the season for visitors and family so I would just want to remind everyone who comes to play on the courts to PLEASE respect the rules by NOT walking on the courts and also to treat the equipment that you use to play as though it were your own. Equipment gets expensive to replace and Hometown has been great in maintaining our courts and providing us with parts to repair the pushers when they get broken and also provides us with chalk for our scoreboards. Janet and I will try to repair broken pushers and keep chalk available as needed. As the renters arrive you will notice that Hometown replaced our worn benches which were getting in bad shape, with all new benches. We are very appreciative of that so lets keep them looking as nice as they look now. In closing, please be sure all the lights are off and the shack door and window are both closed when you are done playing. Thanks for your cooperation. DEL TURA

Amigo’s Softball

By Jay Flanagan

11/14

DEL TURA

The Del Tura softball team is readying themselves for competition in their new league, The Mark and Mary Ford League, based in Punta Gorda. Though the league and playing site is new, there will be a familiarity with the teams. The league is composed of eight teams from seven North Fort Myers’ communities.

The new fields are located at Charlotte County’s Carmelita Sport’s Park off Florida Road in Punta Gorda. All of the games will be played at 5:30 p.m. on Mondays and Wednesdays starting January 6 through March 26, 2014. For those fans looking to follow the Amigos, there are a number of ways to get to the fields that are located just north of Edison State College on the west side of I-75.

The easiest way to find the complex is to go north on 41 to Taylor Road (there is an Edison State College sign before the road) on which you turn right. Follow Taylor all the way to Airport Road (2nd stop light) where you take a right. Then follow Airport, take a left on Florida just before the overpass over I-75. The complex is off Florida on the left, approximately one mile north.

Nine-Hole Women’s Golf

By Rita Immoor Wow! What a busy, busy month! November 7 was a scramble with a two-team tie. On November 14, it was drop your worst score . Flight 1 had a tie between Molly Brown and Mary Ann Wuerdeman, Flight 2 Mary Kay Tointon and Flight 3 Trudy Olds. On November 18, the couples’ challenge resulted in a tie between Mary Ann and Dick Wuerdeman and Molly Brown and Gary Perkins. The challenge was followed by our cocktail party with hor’dourves at Pat Alley’s and a delicious dinner in the Starlight Ballroom -- as a result of which was we all went home bigger than we started! On November 21, the game was low net on the North and A flight winner was Molly Brown, B flight winner was Carol Durfer and C flight

winner was Nancy Skorlinski. November 28 was Thanksgiving and we all spent it in our own special way but not in club golf. On December 5, our A team winner was Joan Leydon, B flight Justine Fitzgibbons and C flight Louisa Vaillancourt. December 6 was the Annual Awards Banquet, which was well attended and many prizes were awarded to the various winners in our club. In addition to regular announcements at the weekly tournament play, members are reminded to regularly review published announcements on our Bulletin Board to obtain specifics for all planned events. New members are always welcome to join the Nine-Hole Women’s Golf Association at any time during the year. Don’t hesitate to contact Marlene DeGraaf at 5994404 for more information.

Tuesday Night Duplicate Bridge

December also included an A/B/C/D Welcome Back Scramble on December 14 and Glow Ball on December 28. And, of course, the annual Bloody Mary Scramble is on January 1, 2014. Ryan continues to give clinics. They are usually on Wednesday. Check in the Pro Shop for time and lesson topic. It will be interesting to see what the New Year brings. I don’t think it will be sleet or wind chills at minus 20! It could be the story of the one that almost went in for that elusive hole-in-one, the bad luck of the tree that got in the way and, of course, the putt that lipped out. (Just ask Tiger!!) But, mostly, may the New Year bring you joy and happiness and good times with friends on and off the Golf Course.
