HelloFellow residents. Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a joyous holiday. Well its the start of a new year and everyones resolution is to start participating in our activities and parties more often.

We enjoy each others company and you will too. We have a lot of activities to choose from. Just check your calendar for days and times for events. You will find me at all the events so come join me, I’d love to meet all of you and get to know you.

On another note. It was brought to my attention that one day a police helicopter was flying above making an announcement. Two police cars came into our community and parked to keep an eye out. Apparently they were announcing that 4 men with masks on jumped out of a car to escape from the police and the officers were in our community just in case they jumped over the fence to hide here. There were several people outside watching. This put yourselves in possible danger if they did come and had a gunfight, or took someone hostage.

Please, Please, Please if they are searching for a fugitive stay in your house and lock the doors and windows. You can watch about it on the news.

Please stay safe!!

Until next month Terri

Dear Residents of Terrace Estates Community The Rec Club Committee would like to extend a heartfelt thank you for making 2025 such an amazing year! We enjoyed several fun events that brought us closer together and gave us the chance to simply have a great time. Our events are funded by your generous donations in all different forms (cash, recyclable items, gifts for raffles, profit from bingo games, decorations).

A special thank you to the HCA for their generous donations throughout 2025—we truly appreciate your support.

As we welcome a brand-new year, let’s take a moment to reflect: o What can we do to enrich our lives? o What can bring joy to ourselves and those around us?

Examples of joyful actions: • Greet a neighbor with a warm smile or kind words.

• Volunteer for a community event or lend a helping hand to someone in need.

• Organize a small gathering or coffee chat to strengthen connections.

• Share your talents- whether baking, gardening, or crafting—with others.

• Practice gratitude and express appreciation to those who make a difference.

We invite you to make this year one of connection, kindness, and unforgettable moments—together we continue embracing the community we’re proud to call home!

From all of us at the Rec Club Committee, we wish you a Happy and Joyful 2026!

Elections are coming!!

The Rec Club Committee will be having elections for the upcoming year 2026/2027. Put on your thinking caps and get ready to nominate who you think will be a good candidate for the Chair Person, Co-Chair, Secretary, Treasurer, Sargent-at-Arms, and the Welcome Committee Chair. So look out for your clothes pin mail for the nomination notices in February. Further information will be provided then.

“ An Ocean of Emotion” Recently, I did something that I hadn’t done in a long time. I took a quiet walk along the beach.

I went looking for answers that I had been searching for in the Bible.

But they always seemed out of reach.

As I walked, I looked for the “little things” that sometimes go unnoticed. Things that I hoped would speak to me and offer a clue.

The color of the water along the shoreline was a murky brown. But as I looked out beyond the pounding surf, it changed to a greenish blue.

The welcome silence around me, was only interrupted by the unique sound of the heartbeat of the waves as they were breaking.

I continued to enjoy the beauty surrounding me. While also feeling the pleasant weightlessness of the steps I was taking.

Shattered seashells were scattered along the beach in the shallow water, like some lost souls ,as they tumbled about.

I watched as the predictable incoming tides slowly, and religiously rolled in and out.

I was being rewarded with witnessing the magic of one of God’s vibrantly colored sunsets.

And the vision of the bright ribbons of orange, yellow, and purple were reminding of the swirls of rainbow sherbet.

Your paragraph text

By the time my stroll along the ocean ended, I was OK with my thoughts of never knowing the answers I had been seeking . And would now be guessing.

But I left with one of “life‘s lessons” that day. To never stop searching , and that each and every day I am given is a blessing.

“Our lives are similar to the oceans tides… We must learn to deal with both the highs and lows!”

Happy trails, Don Petty

My Lovely Garden The Morning Glorys of my life...

They call me by the names Of mommy, sister, daughter and wife, And from different seeds, they came.

Like a strong and sturdy trestle, Tilting to one side.

Their vines coil all around me As I quietly watch them climb.

Their blooming flowers are lovely, But become quite heavy just the same.

And if carefully, you listen You can hear the bending of my frame.

A fan of long and narrow sticks, Is all that you may see.

But this you must remember...

Recycling Fundraiser Continues!!!

The Rec Club Committee will continue raising funds for Community Events.

Please remove caps from bottles before recycling (they “ding” us for caps). ALSO … It would really help us if you would put Plastic and Cans in separate bags.

Please place your recyclable items by your mailbox on Tuesdays after 4 PM and someone from the Rec Club will collect them.

Bring them to Coffee and Donuts on Tuesdays after 10 AM and place them in the Recycle Bin at the clubhouse

You may also drop them off at Space 53. “Recycle” marked Bin near the mailbox.
