August 2025

Hi Everyone,

PARK MANAGER’S CORNER

August 2025

Yard Sale: The public yard sale on June 21, 2025, was a success. There were 20 residents that participated in the sale who indicated the buyers were courtesy and friendly, the sale and traffic were well coordinated, and no problems were encountered. Alan was at the entrance passing out at least 57 maps, and Marie and Larry rode around and watched the buyers and traffic to ensure safety. Some of the comments of the participating residents were:

• I thought it was fantastic. The vast majority of our sales were in the 1st two hours. So, if you have to negotiate with the residents who didn't care for the sale, you could make it shorter.

• We just had a few things to sell, but I think it went well. Traffic was slow as far as people coming thru. People were respectful, no incidents.

• I was not overly impressed with the turnout perhaps because of my location. I did sell a few items but I closed down by noon as I could see that the folks visiting basically had dwindled by 11 a.m.

• We think it was a success everyone drove by in a very nice manner, Allen and Larry did a fine job

• What a great time! Chatted with neighbors, meeting new people! Personally, I think the time spent was too long. Perhaps start at 10:00 and ending at 2:00.

• I think the attendance was ok and no problem with parking. The visitors were polite and courteous. For us, we sold most items for $1.00. ‘DOLLAR SALE’. Jewelry and pictures frames were a big sale item. All in all, the time spent wasn’t lucrative, but so much fun! Let’s do it again. Maybe one in Spring and one in Fall.

• Thank you for all the effort that you and management put in to make this happen.

• My goal wasn’t money… good thing, I made $24.00! People were so nice, enjoying the beautiful morning, parking was well handled. Personally, I hope it happens again next year… I have a back shed to clear out����

So, almost everyone thought this yard sale was a positive thing, except the hours of 9-3 were too long. The hours should have been 9-1 pm or 8-1 pm. Thank you to all who participated in making this a positive and successful event.

Mailboxes. One of our residents noted that recently, at almost midnight, a car pulled up on the sidewalk at the mailboxes on the corner and then sped away down the street. She could not determine whether they were opening the mailboxes or not, because it was too dark to see , nor could she tell what kind of car it was. We again remind everyone to be sure to pick up your mail each day after the mail person makes the deliveries

SOCIAL CLUB PRESIDENT’S REPORT FOR JULY 2025

Happy August.

I can’t believe we are already in August. Seems like this summer is flying by. I hope everyone is having a great summer.

I want to thank everyone who attended the 4th of July BBQ. The turnout was well attended. It looked like everyone enjoyed themselves. We also had our 3rd Annual Bocce Ball Tournament which was fun. Congratulations to the winning team.

On August 16th we will have a Luau with bring your own Pūpū (Hawaiian for appetizer). There will be professional Hula dancers to enlighten you. Last year they performed for us and everyone enjoyed it. We also have our usual events such as bingo, karaoke, game night, Pokeno, TX Hold’em just to name a few.

Thank you again to all who contribute to the recycling! This is a reminder that we pick up recycling every Monday at 5:00 p.m. If you miss the pickup time, please keep it for the following week. We only go around the park one time.

The Social Club has many activities that everyone is encouraged to attend. Please join us for these wonderful events. Events that will keep you entertained, well fed at times and engaged in social activities.

The Social Club meets on the first Saturday of every month at 10:00 a.m. at the Clubhouse.

Cheers, Thank you,

Stay Safe and Be Well!

June 2025 Birthdays

On June 11, 2025, we celebrated our June birthdays with a white cake, raspberry filing and whipped cream frosting. We only had 2 residents celebrating their birthdays, but we had a good group of residents who came to help them celebrate.

Our June birthdays were Barbara Dibble #78 and June Rossini #118.

KARAOKE, JUNE 20, 2025

Another great night of singing and fun at the monthly Karaoke gathering. Below are photos of some of the singers.

Trivial Pursuit was played on Game Night. The women and men challenged each other. The women won one game, and the men won one game so the evening was a draw, but was lots of fun. Below are a couple of pictures of the players.

July 4th Barbeque

The Social Club had their annual Barbeque on the 4th of July. We had a large crowd (approximately 65 people). Larry Stone, Al Fiori and John Gomez were our cooks and Larry made his famous chili. We also had lots of delicious side dishes, especially fruit dishes!. Below are a few pictures of the event. It was a terrific event. Thank you to the Social Club & helpers for putting it all together. Great job!

Note: I would also like to thank Toni Dalbec for making all the wonderful patriotic coasters and giving them away to those attending the July 4th barbeque. Thank you, Toni, for the coasters. We all appreciated having one (or two)!

July Birthday Party

The July birthday party was part of the July 4th barbeque. Six residents celebrated their birthdays and they are represented in the following picture. We had a white cake and a chocolate cake from Costco decorated in a patriotic theme, along with ice cream cups. Thank you Sandy Johnson Lipori,#117 for coordinating the party and to Donna Branham #22 and Deborah Art #125 for helping with distributing the ice cream cups and cake.

The Birthday Club would like to invite the July Birthdays to the August Birthday Celebration. There was a lot going on at the July 4th BBQ and I feel the residents did not get the personal attention they deserved for their special day. Please join us. Sandy

. Happy Birthday Everyone!

OUR SCRAPBOOK •

IN THAT ROOM

As I get older, I am losing a lot of friends. But I am thinking I could have been a better friend. When I am visiting with them, why was I only focused on the everyday noise that complicates our life? Gossip, complaining, politics, gas prices, etc. Why did I not get to know them? Their accomplishments, interest, hobbies and family.

Because in that room, there is a former fighter jet pilot.

In that room there is a person who hiked the tallest mountains in the US

In the room there is someone with two Master Degrees

In that room there is someone who advocated for the Homeless I had to learn all this from the Obituary.

Why did I not ask?

Beach Wanderings from John Morgan

In the 1990’s we lived in the idyllic location of Central Coast California near Pismo Beach. Every summer the owners of the local hardware store put on the World’s Worst Poetry contest. So I figured being a naturally bad poet I would enter. As it turns out, I came in as 2nd place winner. I found out later from the organizers that 1st place was won by a woman who entered every bad poetry contest around the country who would win dubious prizes. I hope she’s happy. My prize was a pretty good looking plaque and a coupon for a lunch of clam chowder in a sour dough bread bowl at the famous Squash Café. It’s still there by the way.

So I now submit my 2nd place winning poem. It may not be the worst, just maybe bad. You be the judge.

MEET OUR NEIGHBOR

What's always interesting when meeting new residents is finding out what has drawn them to our lovely community. Robert and Roberta Hinchman are no exception. Moving to 122 Shamrock Circle on May 1, the couple wanted to find a home near family. After touring several manufactured homes communities, "we knew immediately that Shamrock was the one for us," said Roberta in a recent interview.

They instantly set to work on renovations and repairs. You may have noticed the landscaping upgrades. "We'll be doing more," added Robert. They have removed dry rot, installed new siding and have had all the interior painted. With an electrician in the family, their home has been inspected and is now "safe and sound," says Roberta. A tankless water heater and all new appliances have been purchased. Whew! Once a few more projects are completed, the couple looks forward to engaging in Park activities.

Having moved from El Dorado Hills, near Sacramento, Roberta and Robert (Bob) were pleased to relocate to this area. Bob was born in Windsor and Roberta, in San Francisco. Raised in Petaluma, she also enjoyed living in Rohnert Park and Santa Rosa.

It's always fun to find out how a couple has met. The two were introduced by a friend in Fremont on April 10, 1991, and Bob proudly reported that they were married exactly a year later.

Both having been married before, they each brought children to their union. Roberta has 2 sons in Sebastopol and Sacramento. Bob says, "I was more prolific." His progeny includes 2 daughters in Rohnert Park and San Diego, and they have given him a grandson, granddaughter and 2 greatgranddaughters. (He hardly looks old enough to have greats!) His son lives in El Dorado, producing a grandson.

Both had interesting careers. Roberta started out at the Sonoma Developmental Center until it closed, joining the same company in Stockton and Sacramento. She thrived in serving that company, praising the privilege of having a "humanity-driven job." Later she worked for the California Board of Equalization.

Bob was a manufacturing engineer for Thermo Electron in Reno, until it closed, when he relocated to work for the company in Fremont. (Lucky him - that's where he met Roberta!) After the years, he was employed by the California Department of General Services, enjoying work as a state engineer.

Perhaps you have seen Bob on some of his frequent walks with the couple's dogs. They have a 7-year-old half Yorkie/"half something else" and a 3-year old mixed. Bob says he's enjoyed getting acquainted with a number of residents on his walks.

Meet

Our Neighbor (continued)

A former golfer, Bob's favorite hobby is enjoying his virtual flight simulator. He told me he wears goggles and it's like being inside an airplane, and you have to be careful not to crash. He recently introduced the fun to a family member, who is now hooked. He offered to show my husband, Ken, his hobby.

Roberta loves to sew and she hopes to reach out to other crafters in our area. Her past projects have included quilts, garments and -get this - refurbishing dolls, making them wardrobes and giving them away.

Finally, it's always a delight to hear about residents' travels. Bob's eyes lit up as Roberta described a trip they took to Italy 10 months ago for a granddaughter's wedding. Later, he said they loved visiting London. They took a river cruise to the south of France 2 years ago. And Roberta enjoyed a family European Christmas Market river cruise 3 years ago. More travel in the future, they say, but currently their cash flow goes towards property renovation.

As usual, I invited them to come watch karaoke in order to meet residents. In fact, just before the Clubhouse interview began, residents Nate and John walked by, after a swim. It was fun for me to let Roberta and Bob know about their energy at our Park.

Our newest fun residents - hope you can meet them soon! Welcome!

QUOTES

A salary is the drug they give you to forget your dreams.

Kevin O'Leary

I would visualize things coming to me. It would just make me feel better. Visualization works if you work hard. That's the thing. You can't just visualize and go eat a sandwich."

Jim Carrey

When we forget to use visualization and imagination, it is like not using our minds.

Jose Silva

You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.

Mahatma Gandhi

The start is what stops most people. Don Shula

I realized early on that success was tied to not giving up. Most people in this business gave up and went on to other things. If you simply didn't give up, you would outlast the people who came in on the bus with you.

Harrison Ford

Want of foresight, unwillingness to act when action would be simple and effective, lack of clear thinking, confusion of counsel until the emergency comes, until self-preservation strikes its jarring gong, these are the features which constitute the endless repetition of history.

Winston Churchill

The difference between try and triumph is a little "umph."

Author Unknown

The pessimist worries about the wind; the optimist thinks it will change; the realist adjusts the sails.

William Arthur Ward

Progress equals happiness.

Tony Robbins

The Lighter Side

Careful

A wife was making a breakfast of fried eggs for her husband.

Suddenly, her husband burst into the kitchen. "Careful," he said, "CAREFUL! Put in some more butter!

Oh my gosh! You're cooking too many at once. Turn them! TURN THEM NOW! We need more butter.

Oh my gosh! They're going to STICK! Careful. I said CAREFUL!

You NEVER listen to me when you're cooking! Never! Turn them! Hurry up! You know you always forget to salt them. Use the salt!"

The wife stared at him. "What in the world is wrong with you? You think I don't know how to fry a couple of eggs?"

The husband calmly replied, "I just wanted to show you what it feels like when I'm driving!"

GI Insurance

Airman Jones was assigned to the induction center to sell recruits GI insurance benefits.

Captain Smith noticed that Jones had a 100% record for insurance sales. It had never happened before.

The Captain then sat in the room and listened to Jones's sales pitch. Jones explained the basics of the insurance.

"If you have GI Insurance and get killed in battle, the government has to pay $200,000 to your beneficiaries. If you don't have GI insurance, and get killed in battle, the government only has to pay $6,000. Now, who do you think they send into battle first?"
