ASSOCIATION MANAGEMENT NEWS DEANNA LOUGHRAN, Executive Director

Though Severe Weather Preparedness Week was officially March 4-10, 2018, we should always be prepared for severe weather throughout the spring and summer months. As a reminder, the Village of Huntley has an Outdoor Early Warning Siren that will sound if a tornado has been sited and considered to be a danger to the Village of Huntley. If you find yourself in one of the lodges during an emergency, the restrooms, locker rooms, and behind the Drendel Ballroom stage are designated shelter areas in Prairie Lodge. At Meadow View Lodge, the entire lower level is the designated shelter area.

Every month for the board meeting management report, I congratulate staff on a job well done with a ‘shout out’. My February 28 shout out went to Operations Director Chris Leuck, Exterior Maintenance Supervisor Russ Woodside, and Exterior Maintenance Assistant Supervisor Steve Redenz for establishing and utilizing the Information Hotline for information regarding Attached Product Neighborhood snow removal. I received the following from resident Dottie Bobzin of Neighborhood 34: “Kudos for the telephone hotline. Good idea. Voice on the recording is very clear and he does not speak too fast. Easy to understand. That should help the number of calls that neighborhood reps receive.”

This month, outdoor pool covers will be removed and prepped for the upcoming swimming season. Exterior service stations will be opened by April 30.

Please note both lodges will be closed on Sunday, April 1, for Easter. Happy Easter!

MEMBER ID/ACTIVITY CARDS UPDATE

Effective immediately, the Association will no longer accept old Member ID/Activity Cards for purchase of activities or access to the Fitness Centers.

If you have yet to obtain a new Member ID/Activity Card, please do so at the Fountain View Welcome Desk during the following hours: Monday and Friday: 9am-9pm, Tuesday through Thursday: 9am-4pm, and Saturday and Sunday: 10am-4pm.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR AD HOC COMMUNICATION COMMITTEE

Residents interested in applying to be on an ad hoc Communication Committee, to study the effectiveness of Board to Resident communication, should fill out a Letter of Interest, available on the community website’s Document Library and at the Prairie Lodge Member Services Desk, by April 14. This will be a seven-member committee that will begin meeting May 1, 2018. Interviews will begin after April 15.

LAWN CARE & YARD WASTE REMINDERS

After the freezing and thawing cycles of winter and early spring, many yard items may have become broken, tipped over, or crooked. Please take some time this spring to walk your yard and remove broken or damaged yard ornaments as well as straighten some that may have become crooked, including solar pathway lights, shepherd’s crooks, and bird house posts. Yard waste is picked up the first week of April through the last week of November on the same day as waste/recycling. Yard waste stickers cost $2.50 each and are available at any Customer Service Desk.

PET OWNERSHIP REMINDERS While enjoying your spring stroll with your pooch, please keep in mind the following: • Pick up after your pet.

No one wants to see or smell the droppings your pet leaves behind!

• As a courtesy, don’t allow your pet to urinate on someone else’s lawn. Dogs can use the parkway (i.e., the grassy area between the sidewalk and the street) but remember to pick up all solid waste and place in a waste receptacle.

• Pets are not allowed in either of the lodges. The only animals allowed are service animals or those trained to assist an owner with documented disabilities.

Happy Easter!

ID FRAUD/SCAMS WORKSHOP

Sponsored by the Civics Committee Have you been fooled lately? Come to the free Illinois Comptroller's ID Fraud/Scams Workshop on Monday, April 16, 1pm, in the Birch Room.

SECRETARY OF STATE'S MOBILE DRIVER SERVICES

Sponsored by the Civics Committee Monday, May 14, 10am-2pm, Drendel Ballroom The popular Secretary of State Mobile Driver Services will, again, be at Sun City. Need to take the written driver's test, or are you due for a vision screening? Non-expiring state ID cards are also available for Illinois residents. Free if 65 and older. If you are from out-of-state, you will need more than your current driver's license (e.g., utility bill with address) to get an Illinois license. You can review the types of acceptable identification at the Secretary of State's website at www.cyberdriveillinois.com.

Please be aware that the unit can serve up to 80 people during this time frame. Please note: the driver road test can only be conducted at Secretary of State Facilities such as Woodstock, Elgin, and Belvidere.

LSC508 RULES OF THE ROAD

Sponsored by the Civics Committee Monday, May 14, 10am-12pm, Drendel Breakout Check-in: 9:30am This complimentary refresher class is for those who need to review the written driver’s test! Seating is limited. Maximum of 32 participants. Registration required.

PROPERTY WATCH, A FREE NEW SERVICE FROM THE KANE COUNTY RECORDER

Hosted by the Civics Committee Friday, June 1, 10am-12pm, in the Prairie Lodge Social Lounge Property Fraud is one of fastest growing crimes in America today. Homeowners at risk of foreclosure have become a target for predators seeking to profit from their misfortunes.

Criminals simply record a document at the Recorder making it appear they own or have placed a lien on the property.

The Kane County Recorder is providing the free PROPERTY WATCH service to automatically notify you of any documents being recorded against your property. Once you sign up, you will receive an email notification whenever a document is recorded against the property, with a link to the document.

Instant access to live updates on important transactions to your property records. Review your current chain of title to your property. Make sure you have clean title before buying, selling, or refinancing your home.

Brian has been traveling and singing the beautiful and challenging songs of Roy Orbison fulltime since 1995.

A fan videoed Brian singing at a club one night, and without his knowledge, sent the tape off to a Las Vegas producer.

Soon after, a very surprised Brian received a telephone call while on the air. The caller was John Stuart, the originator of the world-famous impersonator show “Legends in Concert,” and Brian's career changed overnight to one of bringing Roy's music to the stage in a tribute to the Big “O” that is amazingly natural. This artist is new to our community, so be sure to get your tickets for this special night to enjoy the songs from all of Roy's eras!

Friday, May 18, 10-11:30am FV Birch Room $5pp Instructor: Steven Frenzel LSC289 10 COMMANDMENTS OF BASEBALL This program discusses the meaning of rules for success in baseball – and in life. They were composed and published first in 1921 by a then minor league baseball manager, Joe McCarthy. The Commandments themselves are the down-to-earth strategies the manager later used training his players. McCarthy went on to having a Hall of Fame career managing the Chicago Cubs, New York Yankees, and the Boston Red Sox in the “golden age” of baseball from 1926 to 1950. Relive anecdotes from Babe Ruth’s famous call of his home run shot at Wrigley Field in 1932, Lou Gehrig’s “Luckiest Man” speech in 1938, retiring from baseball after 17 seasons, and the 56game hitting streak of Joe Di Maggio in 1941. Listen to the colorful stories our speaker has collected illustrating the McCarthy’s rules. Come to the program, and understand why Mr. Thorne’s book, “The 10 Commandments of Baseball,” has been selected for sale by the museum store of the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. Hear his joyful presentation.

Millions of Americans doubted the wisdom of President Wilson’s decision to send American troops “over there.” In fact, one government official stated that the war would not be won on the battlefield, but rather in the hearts and minds of the American people. To accomplish this, the Wilson Administration commissioned artists to produce propaganda posters that would “sell” the war to the American public. Posters encouraged people to enlist, conserve, work, purchase “Liberty Bonds,” care for the wounded, and remember who our enemies were. Local historian, Bob Frenz, will bring some of his original World War I posters to share with us.
