Magic Sands Mobile Home Community
DECEMBER 2025 MANAGER’S CORNER
To all the residents of this great community known as Magic Sands. I know how hard it is to keep your lots maintained and kept in a neat and attractive condition; it takes time, money and hard work. I want to thank all of the residents who take pride in their homes and have the ability and resources to maintain their homes. While we are experiencing this great California weather, I would encourage you to continue to spend time beautifying your lots. Once the rains cease it will be much easier to maintain your lots due to the fact nobody likes to work in the rain, that’s why I am encouraging all the residents of Magic Sands to get as much work done as possible while the weather is good.
I would also like to thank all the residents of the Park for their courteousness, respectfulness, kindness, and patience in dealing with one another mainly our neighbors and residents alike. I want you to know that the Park appreciates it. You may file written complaints for legitimate issues and we will make every effort to resolve these disputes in a manner that is fair and legal for all parties involved. It is our sincere hope that we will be able to bring a satisfactory resolution to resident’s disputes before any legal action is needed. Again, the Rules and Regulations of the Park and the California Civil Codes will be the main determining instruments in determining resident disputes as well as disputes with management.
Again, thank you for all your hard work, patience, and understanding as it pertains to lot maintenance, neighbor relations and park pride. If you have any suggestions that would be a positive word of encouragement, or a story of how you personally experienced a positive outcome by using the behavior mentioned above please write me a small note so I can share it with others.
I encourage all of us to practice more love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control with each other to pave the road for joyful, peaceful happy lives.
From all the staff here at Magic Sands. We Want to Wish Every Resident a Very Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year.
Sincerely,
Abraham I Caraba

My
Christmas Wish To YOU
ByCatherinePulsifer
If I could wish a wish for you, it would be for peace, faith, and happiness not only at Christmas, but for the whole year through!
I wish that there always be food on your table. That you always give to those less fortunate. May you always take time to share, and thank those who have blessed you.
I wish for time, so you may reflect on the blessings that you have, and that you express your love to those who are dear to you.
May you never feel lonely, because there are those who care.
That you realize: you are special, you are unique, you make a difference, not only at Christmas, but all year!
I wish for your thoughts to be positive ones, that you never quit, that you never give up, and that you continue to learn.
I wish for the love, and peace of God, to be yours always.
Born In a Manger by Catherine
Pulsifer
Born in a manger Was that of a Savior
How little did they know How heaven and earth were a glow.
This baby he did grow And lived to thirty-three you know But the influence of His presence Gave us all the best present.
He taught about love
About the kingdom above For our sins He did die A gift we cannot repay.
Lord Jesus we thank you Your presence is true Our love for you is great And at Christmas we celebrate.
