They were greeted at the door by Larry German and servers with a free glass of rum punch.

The menu buffet included jumbo shrimp cocktail, mini lobster rolls, curry chicken kabobs, bacon wrapped scallops, carved lamb with mint jelly and carved beef tenderloin. Yum!

You may have noticed the huge crowd in the Clubhouse portico on Sunday, November 26, when we lit up the night sky at our 16th Annual Tree Lighting Ceremony. All were dazzled by the lights, sirens, bells, and whistles as Mr. and Mrs. S. Claus were delivered in style to the stage, courtesy of the Lee County Sheriff’s Office. Sgt. Jevon Matthews and Lt. Angelo Vaughn are exemplary representatives of the Sheriff’s Community Response Unit. Their huge personalities, kind nature, wit, and enthusiasm, made them an instant hit with our members and guests. The Deputies surprised those attending by not only bringing the

Colorful seasonal outfits in red and green dotted both golf courses at HP’s annual Christmas Scramble held Sunday, December 3. A full field of 288 players hit the links for some festive competition. There were four flights on each course, with the top four teams in each flight winning $100, $90, $70 and $60 respectively in pro shop credit.

The HP Book Club will meet on Friday, January 19th, at 2:30 p.m. in the Activity Center to discuss The Forest of Vanishing Stars by Kristin Harmel. Inspired by true stories of survival, this novel is about a young woman who uses her knowledge of the wilderness to help Jewish refugees escape the Nazis until a secret from her own past puts her and those with her in danger. One reviewer said that the book has “unforgettable characters, nail-biting drama and deep emotion that endures long after the final words are forgotten.” Jane Breisch will lead the discussion.

Club meetings are open to all residents who read the book. If you wish to be added to the HP Book Club mailing list, please email me.

The 2023-24 season kicked off with the 20th birthday celebration of our 9-hole League in November. Our members contributed $300 to Guardian ad Litem, this year’s charity. The Christmas Scramble followed, with many enjoying the cosmos and the festive decorations.

From The Pro Shop

By Bob Kelly, Director of Golf bkelly@hpgc.com

Hello from the golf shop. Season is here and we’re looking forward to another busy year of golf. The golf courses are in spectacular shape, and it’s the responsibility of every member to do their part to keep them that way. You, as members, have made a great investment in your courses so please make sure to fix ball marks, fill divots, rake bunkers, follow cart directional stakes, and all the other little things that will help keep the courses looking great.

I’d like remind everyone that the Chelsea Tee Time System is now in “season mode” from January 1 through April 15 A brief list of how the system operates during season:

• Chelsea points are assigned to members bringing guests.

• Chelsea points are assigned at the placement of tee times three days prior to the day of play.

• Once points are assigned, they will not be removed unless the golf course is closed for play.

• If a player is substituted in an assigned tee time, the player who is removed will retain their point from placement and the new player will receive a point as well.

• Any time booked on the tee sheet after placement, but before the day of play, will also receive Chelsea points.

• A member who fills a vacant tee time on the day of play will not receive Chelsea points.

• Chelsea points will not be assigned for any tee time 2:30 p.m. or after.

• Abuses of the system will result in penalty Chelsea points assigned to your number and may lead to suspension of golf privileges.

One other thing to keep in mind as season begins is PLAYING READY GOLF! As golf courses begin to fill from sun up to sun down we all need to be aware of our time on the course. A round of golf is much more enjoyable when the pace is good. It’s the responsibility of every player to maintain a good pace. We’ll be sending out periodic reminders throughout the season to keep this topic on everyone’s mind.

The entire golf shop staff is here to help and we are excited about another great season of golf.

In accordance with our MGA Bylaws, the Nominating Committee of Al Kaminski, Andy White, and Bob Wittman will be recruiting candidates to fill three season-end vacancies on our Board. Further information and application instructions will be emailed to all MGA members and posted on the MGA Bulletin Board. Info can also be obtained by contacting the Nominating Committee.

The Harry Chapin Charity Luncheon will be held January 11. A $20 donation will be charged to the account of each participant that day, making this the single biggest fundraising event in our campaign. We thank you for your continued support of the Food Bank.

This season’s Welcome Back Happy Hour will be held on January 16. This informal event gives you an opportunity to mix and mingle with your fellow members, and hear updates on this season’s programs. We hope to see you there!

There seems to be a lot of confusion here at Heritage Palms about a ball in a penalty area when there is a red line painted on the cart path. This is what every member needs to know about this situation.

There is NO free relief if your ball is in the penalty area and you would have to stand on the cart path to make your next stroke. This is true even if your ball is very close to the cart path and your golf club would strike

the cart path on your next stroke. The player may play the ball as it lies standing on the cart path (no penalty) or take penalty relief adding one penalty stroke to your score.

The only time you would receive free relief is if your ball is ON THE CART PATH, OR TOUCHING THE SIDE OF THE CART PATH.

This Local Rule only applies to cart paths that have red lines on them.

Golf Etiquette

Here is this month’s etiquette tip: Hit and sit. What this means: hit your shot, get in the cart holding your club, drive to the next ball, then clean your club and put it away.

Pickleball at Its Best

By Joy Weiner jcweiner3@hotmail.com

Pickleball has no problem attracting millions of amateur players with over 40 million players in the US. But, is the game as fun to watch as it is to play? Professional game investors, such as Lebron James, are counting on it. You can tune in to live streams of Pickleball on YouTube or ESPN day or night. However, we are lucky to have the Acesports Pickleball Pro League here in SW FL. This league is comprised of higher-level players or teaching professionals, who play every two weeks or so during the season. Here’s the

link to their schedule: http://www.facebook.com/share/p/nEtL 8yxziWJ5YDgS/?mibextid=zLoPMf. Other than a fun relaxing night out with friends, spectating allows one to observe and learn technique and strategies from players who are more skilled.

For those of you who want your own opportunity to play in tournaments, there are numerous opportunities in our area. The HPPA will be sponsoring three tournaments this season at HP for our members – January 17 & 18, February 17 & 18, and March 18, 2024. You’ll be able to sign up on the Chelsea system. Stay tuned for details. If you’d like to participate in a sanctioned event, sign in to pickleballrackets.com or pickleballtournaments.com for local tournaments.

Happy New Year! See you on the courts!

L-R: Sue Nink, Julia Purcel, Mary Locher, Jan Smelter, April Kispal, Susan Smith, Ann Mieczkowski, Diane Jansen, and Anne Conover.

Dear friend,

“I Just Don’t Believe That…”

When I meet people in town, they usually say, “Oh, yeah, I know you, you’re that doctor with the beard on TV.” Well, perhaps I should tell you a little more about myself, the picture from television and why I use it in my ads.

Let’s start with me, the guy with the beard. Ten years ago I was living here in Florida. At that time my mother was down visiting from New Jersey for the season when she showed up in my clinic with a frozen shoulder. She was desperate and in pain having lost practically all use of her dominant arm. She could hardly fix her hair, reach for a coffee cup or even fasten her brassiere. Basic hygiene had become extremely difficult for her. She was afraid, because the two orthopedic surgeons that she had consulted told her, “Your only option is to have your shoulder replaced.” I remember saying to my mother, “I just don’t believe that.”

Now at that time I was a chiropractor who worked primarily on the spine. Frankly… I didn’t know how I was going to help her. I just knew there was a nonsurgical solution out there and I was going to find it.

And boy did I find it! I found the answer to my mother’s shoulder problem and much, much more. And where did I find it? Of all places, I found it at the birthplace of Elvis Presley, Tupelo, Mississippi. Immediately I hopped on a plane and flew into Memphis, rented a car and drove out to a chiropractic neurologist who was willing to teach me how to fix my mother’s frozen shoulder. I spent three days in his clinic shadowing him, learning a new technique I had never even heard about before. Eager to help my mother, I developed this new skill set quickly. When I returned to Florida I wanted to be able to immediately fix my mother’s shoulder.

And that’s exactly what happened. After I performed the first Non-Surgical Operation on her shoulder, her pain went away significantly and she recovered to nearly full range of motion. She was so happy that she avoided surgery and got her life back.

It’s strange how life is, because that same doctor who showed me how to fix my mother’s shoulder opened up his treasure chest of knowledge and showed me how to help people with chronic knee, neck, low back pain and those suffering with neuropathy in their hands and feet, all without the use of Drugs, Surgery or Injections.

I spent the next several months flying back and forth to Mississippi learning all that I could.

Many years later we now have over one thousand successful patient testimonials. Many of them were told by their doctors that their only option was to have their knee or shoulder replaced or to take toxic drugs for the rest of their lives to mask their neuropathy symptoms.

Al was one of those patients who was told he had ‘bone on bone’ degeneration. His knee stopped unlocking properly, similar to what I’m describing in the photo, and he was facing knee replacement surgery. He was suffering from chronic degenerative knee pain, couldn’t walk properly and was easily holding onto 60 pounds of excess body weight. His doctors would have eagerly scheduled him for a knee replacement surgery had he decided to go in that direction.

Immediately after the Non-Surgical Operation I performed on Al’s knee, he was squatting and walking up and down the stairs normally without pain.

Al is now in his early 70s touring Alaska in his RV. He has dropped over 60 pounds and is biking 15 - 20 miles per day and loving life. He regularly sends me great pictures from his adventures.

Joyce was told by her oncologist, “There’s nothing that can be done.” She would have to live with the chemo-induced neuropathy in her hands and feet. Hot and cold were indistinguishable and the numbness and tingling made it impossible for her to walk any distance.

Joyce was a cancer survivor only to have come out on the other side with another debilitating condition. She and her husband showed up in my clinic and told me what their medical doctor had said. I told her the same thing I told my mother, “I just don’t believe that.”

After a thorough neurological examination and report of findings she trusted me enough to follow my protocols. Within two weeks her numbness and tingling in her feet subsided and the feeling was coming back.. After 12 weeks she was feeling the sand between her toes as she walked along the beach again. At her one year checkup Joyce’s sensory loss had improved over 80% overall to within the normal range… She is all smiles these days!

You should know that I don’t heal anyone of anything. What I do is perform a specific non-surgical operation that resets the communication between the brain and knee or shoulder, instantly decreasing pain and inflammation, increasing strength and flexibility and helping with tissue healing. For our neuropathy patients we have a 4 step, proven approach that heals your nerves and reverses your symptoms. We get tremendous results. It’s as simple as that!We get tremendous results. It’s as simple as that!

Today in the United States medical doctors are prescribing more drugs than ever before. These drugs are designed to cover up symptoms as your condition gets worse underneath the surface. The toxicity from the daily use of these chemicals ultimately leads to nasty side-effects and more drugs to treat the new symptoms. The current “healthcare” system was built to maintain your condition, not fix it. It’s a brilliant business model for the pharmaceutical industry and the hospitals, but a horrible strategy to follow if one is looking to age gracefully.

That’s where my practice comes in. I have found a way so that more people are able to afford the treatment they need, even those on a fixed income with or without health insurance coverage. One Non-Surgical Operation in my clinic could cost what you’d pay for just the deductible of a joint replacement surgery.

You Benefit from a Unique Offer…When you bring in this article, you will receive a FREE CONSULTATION with me to determine whether you are a good candidate for our Non-Surgical Knee or Shoulder Operation. If you’re being seen for Neuropathy we will take a thermal image of your feet at no charge to you. This will give me enough information to know whether I can help you. Once we determine you’re a good candidate and you feel comfortable in my clinic the complete examination is only $197. That’s it, for the entire neurological examination & report of findings. This examination & report could cost you over $500 elsewhere. But, please

call right away because this offer expires on January 1, 2024, and I don’t want you to miss out. By the way, further care is very affordable and you’ll be happy to know that the non-surgical, drug free therapies and procedures performed in my clinic can cost as little as $300 per month. You see, I’m not trying to seduce you to come see me with this low start up fee, then to only make it up with high fees after that. Further care is very important to consider when making your choice of doctor because higher costs can add up very quickly.

“You shouldn’t be forced to choose drugs and surgery just because that’s the only treatment medicare and your insurance company will cover.”

You should know a little about my qualifications. That’s important so that there’s no misunderstanding about the quality of care.
