From the Master Board
Activity has slowed at VCC for many of the members. However, this is not the case for the team of professionals at the clubhouse, administrative office, golf course, and pro shop. Rafael and Kwazie and their teams have worked to create a new menu of drinks, entrees, and bar bites. Please stop by and check out the new options. Work on the golf course has been ongoing. During the week of May 12-19, when the course was closed, there was a fervor of maintenance on the course. It looks great.
In addition to their regular duties, the team at the pro shop is doing a great job of scheduling reciprocal tee times for the members. Thanks to John, and the Pros at neighboring courses who created a consortium, we have several opportunities to play their courses for only $35.00. If you are a new member of VCC please know that Sharon, the GM, and the administrative team are invaluable. They prove this every day for the membership.
At the April 22 Master Board meeting, Arcos Bridge Inc. was approved to inspect the three vehicular bridges, and the two golf cart bridges within VCC. The last inspection of the bridges occurred in 2008. The current inspection took place on April 30 of this year. The report was received from Rolando Corsa, PE, CBI, a Principal for Arcos Bridge, Inc. That report is available to the members on the VCC website at this link. The good news is, all the bridges are in good working condition
for their age. A schedule of maintenance is needed to maintain the bridges longterm. If followed, the bridges should remain in service for years to come. Going forward, the bridges should be inspected at least once every two years.
Work on the main pool continues. Have you seen the progress of the project? You can keep up with the project by viewing the photos and aerial footage posted on the Major Projects
webpage at this link. You can also access the photos by visiting the Major Projects webpage; Main Pool link on the VCC website.
Have you seen the survey teams working around the community? To arrive at an estimate of the cost for the Clubhouse/Cabana project,
a survey of the property is one of the necessary steps of the major project process.
(continued on page 4)
The land survey process determines boundaries, exact demarcation of the location of the project, ensures elements are the correct slope, and alignment, and are needed for compliance with local building codes and safety standards.
Please watch the Friday weekly updates from the General Manager for a schedule of Town Hall meetings for members to discuss major projects.
Also, please review the Strategic Plan. Two important VCC assets; the pump house and the satellite pools are listed on the strategic plan for this summer.
The Master Board appreciates the volunteers who work to support our community. In addition to the formal committees, there are several informal committees. Often, these committees work in tandem with one another to make VCC better. Additionally, we are aware of neighbors who work one-onone with their neighbors and friends to support fellow members. VCC is truly a community of support and giving which we believe is unlike any other. The Master Board would like to say, once again, thank you for your efforts to make VCC the best it can be –Thank You!

Hurricane Prep For Your Trees
PATRICIA SMOYER
As you all know we are heading into hurricane season. I am sure most of you have started preparing yourselves and your home for hurricane protection during the coming season.
Now it is time to protect your first line of defense, your trees, against those high winds. Your trees will protect you if you take care of them against the winds of a hurricane. Our trees need to be strong and stable. As far as your palms are concerned, they need to be fertilized now and they need to be watered right after you fertilize them. This will strengthen your palms. Hardwoods do not need to be fertilized, they make their own. You may fertilize palms any time of the year, unlike your lawns. July first is the last time you may fertilize lawns until after hurricane season. Always fertilize when the ground is moist. The same is true for flowers and bushes. Hardwoods need to be trimmed prior to hurricanes. The canopy needs to be thinned
out to reduce wind resistance which prevents a tree from toppling. Other weak or dead branches need to be removed so they do not become projectiles during a storm. You will need assistance from your lawn care provider or an arborist to do the trimming. Palms need to be trimmed also. Seed pods need to be removed, the fronds that are dying need to be removed. When it looks good, it probably is healthy with green and fronds gently moving in the breeze. Now it is time to quit trimming. It is not good to over trim a tree.
You can give your tree a good soaking which helps it to anchor itself.
The Common Grounds Committee hopes all of you have a safe and uneventful hurricane season.

AdoptA-Road
MICHELLE SUAREZ
In February of this year, VCC volunteers met with veterans of the Lee County Adopt-A-Road Program to learn the ropes. VCC is responsible for picking up trash along Corkscrew Road from Three Oaks (east) to Design Parc Road (west). Armed with the necessary equipment: trash pinchers, work gloves, trash bags, and neon work vests, we set out on our inaugural trek. You can imagine the kinds of trash that lands on the roadside; paper, cans, candy wrappers, automobile parts, and oh so many cigarette butts. Some of the unusual items we’ve found to date are construction materials and tools, flossers (yuck!), reflectors from the middle of the road, and cash.
Lee County suggests going out once each month to pick up trash. The VCC crew can generally be seen working the first Saturday of the month. Six to eight volunteers meet at 7 a.m. to distribute supplies and plan our attack. We head out in groups of two and “sweep” the sides and median of the road. It’s important to get out early to beat the heat and the traffic. Generally, it takes one-and-one-half hours to walk the VCC section of Corkscrew Road. After the trash is collected and

dropped at the pick-up spot, a report of the day’s haul, number and names of volunteers, and number of hours worked is submitted electronically to the County. This is also the time to order additional supplies if needed. The program supplies trash pinchers, bags, and vests.
(continued on page 12)
When the volunteers were asked why they decided to participate, they said they were happy to help our community and the County … and going out to breakfast after was a plus!
Lee County’s program began in 1991. Lee County has 301 segments established in its Adopt-A-Road Program. A variety of groups have adopted 245 of the segments. The number of volunteers per group varies. Some segments are a group of one while others have as many as 50 members. From September 30, 2023 to October 31, 2024, a total of 1,417 volunteers worked in support of the program. Collectively, these volunteers dedicated 2,605.5 hours to pick up trash across the County. One of the most
senior groups is still active. The Country Lakes Owners Association has been active since 1993.
The coordinator for Lee County is Ashley Cruz. She is proud to be a part of a program that has been in existence for 33 years. Ashley says, “Our volunteers and group, just like yours, do such an amazing job in contributing to our program. They take pride in their communities and dedicate their time and efforts to the County.” She continued, “We are immensely grateful to all our groups and volunteers. You are all a pleasure to work with, and I look forward to continuing to provide support for you and your group during your time in our Adopt-A-Road program.”
Since January 1, 2025, volunteers and groups have picked up a total of 640.5 bags of trash and worked to clean up 152 miles across our Lee County AdoptA-Road segments.
If you would like to volunteer for the VCC Adopt-A-Road program, please send an email to salukialum85@hotmail.com. Please also visit the VCC Facebook page to learn if volunteers are needed for a particular month.

VCC Showcase
LOIS CHRISTENSEN
There are a lot of talented folks here in Country Creek. The Villager would like to help you get to know them. Over the next few months The Villager will include a section in which to introduce those talents to the community. Watch for “VCC Showcase!”
GLEN CULBERTSON
Glen Culbertson has been a Florida resident since 1990. He is originally from Bourbon County, KY and for the last 14 years has been married to Barbara, a Florida native. His career as a scientist with the Cleveland Clinic in the area of pathology and cancer research included degrees in medical technology and health care administration. Glen has always wanted to become a writer, and over the years he has worked on various forms of writing, mostly as a poet and essayist. He pays close attention to his surroundings, finding that often a word or phrase spoken in his vicinity will spark an idea that he can turn into a piece of writing. In his words, he “grasps the moment.” His poetry and essays have been published frequently in newspapers and online. You may have read some of them at recent Veterans Day celebrations here at Country Creek. This month The Villager offers a few others for your reading enjoyment.
Handprints
Glen A. Culbertson
Every time my grandchildren come to visit, they leave behind a mess. Displaced toys, legos, blocks and more are discovered everywhere for months after they’ve gone back to their own realm of perpetual broken toys, lost puzzle pieces, ignored stuffed animals and general disinterest in any play item more than a week old.
There is absolutely no aggravation in the discovery of those temporarily lost fun things the grandkids misplaced in my home. It’s merely a gentle reminder that my life is fulfilled by the awesome giggles, simplicity and innocence of a child. Allow them to be such.
The numerous handprints found on the windowpanes and glass doors leading outside are left there as long as possible representing their presence and the love we have for them.
This doesn’t infer that they get away with everything, though. Yes, they get away with much, but those are my choices, whether their actions are truly worthy of potential correction or reprimand. Primarily, I need to remember that I was once a child, breaking things, making mistakes, being and saying foolish things.
And then, life becomes more ordered, more shaped and controlled by society and expectations. I suppose we grow up! But, who really wants to? Why leave such a glorious childhood behind where there are no responsibilities, no job, no worries, no fears?
The only relatively close proximity to rediscovering our childhood and the simple and capricious nature therein is to see and feel, vicariously, through the eyes, joy, laughter and hugs of your grandchildren.
And when they’ve left again, leave the handprints on the glass. The love you recapture, each time you see them, reignites that firestorm of affection only a grandparent can feel for their grandchildren.
Leave the handprints there.

A Soldier’s Honor
I’ve served for and with great men, The vast majority braver than I, Without hesitation to go to war, Along side these soldiers, I chose to die.
We left our loved ones behind this day, So you, with yours, could stay, No guarantee that we would return, So our children, together, could play.
(continued on page 16)
Considered our prime American duty, To defend and protect our shores, Many are called upon to serve, To safe-keep you and yours.
Marching off to war without fear, And knowing I’m offering my life, Is of paramount import to me, My country honor’s my sacrifice.
So many never saw home again, Scars seared deeply in the ones that did, All in effort to simply live in peace, Hatred and evil, we fight to rid.
All veterans stand tall and strong, Those of us left, young or old, Deserving of your love and respect, For going to war, facing horrors untold.
You won’t hear us brag about our time, That we served in far away lands, We simply want to live a normal life, Reassured that America still stands.

VCC Veterans Day
JANE HOPSON
The committee members that assist in organizing the VCC Veterans Day Breakfast honoring our Veterans of Country Creek, have recently met, and planning is under way for another special program. So, please mark on your calendars November 11, 2025, with a start time for the buffet at 9:30 a.m. Last year was a sell out!
We will have the usual wonderful buffet that is put out from our kitchen staff, the Missing Man Table upon entering, a special registration table for our Veterans, tentatively the JROTC from Estero High School with their presentation of colors, the acknowledgment of our Veterans and their service area, and the Tolling of the Bells At 11:00 a.m. This year we are adding a guest speaker with a short presentation about her experience of being in the Pentagon when the hijacked American Airlines crashed into the building on 9/11/2001.
We also would like our community members who enjoy writing poems to submit a poem in honor of our Veterans. These will be put on each table.
Our committee feels it is an honor to help on this special day. The committee is composed of members of the Daughters of the American Revolution local Barefoot Beach Chapter –Mary Ann Baker, Diana Burton, Jane Hopson, and Carole Romp.
VCC Wine Dinner
LEE EISENBERG
On Saturday, April 26, VCC had a wine tasting dinner on the patio. The weather and setting could not have been better.
There were about 30 people who attended and were treated to an amazing meal. The main dish was a Wagyu steak that was delicious.
We had 5 different wines. Dry Brut, 2 whites and 2 reds. Before each wine was served, a brief description of each was given. There was live music all evening.
Everyone present enjoyed themselves and are looking forward to similar events in the future.
VCC History – Renovations of the VCC Clubhouse and Housing Prices
Peak – 2006
Talk of renovating the VCC clubhouse began in early 2005. Plans were unveiled at the March annual meeting by architect Bruce Tyson, Tyson and Billy Architects. A twentytwo-page report on a mold study had revealed extensive mold contamination on both levels of the clubhouse.
The design phase of the Clubhouse Restoration Project was underway in February 2006. A Steering Committee was named with Board representatives Gary Miller, Ron Reichert, and Pat O’Connell and representation from the initial Clubhouse Renovation Committee, Bob Selby and Roland Jolie. A Mediation Committee, headed by Tony Meta, was also formed. Bruce Tyson was the Architect. The general contractor was Compass Construction who named Richard Simon Project Manager and Gene Frank Resident Superintendent. The Interior Design Company was the Club Design Group. The Clubhouse lobby was the communication center to track progress of the project. Members of the Design Committee were Chair Barbara Litzen, Carol Moore, Nancy Reichert, and Gerald Simon.
Although it was apparent that renovation was necessary, the community began to express many viewpoints about the
plans and costs, creating divisions among residents. As a result, plans that had been presented to the community were revised.
The actual physical renovation began on stucco on the exterior of the building in April 2006. Mold remediation and demolition on the lower level began in May. Mold was found in the walls, HVAC system, and under the ceramic floors. There was mold everywhere.
The restaurant closed in May; however, minimal food and beverage was available near the Pro Shop. An auction took place May 13 to sell all the restaurant and clubhouse furniture and fixtures. Window replacement began, and roofing was contracted. Mold remediation and demolition on the upper level was completed in June.
In July, building permits were received and the administration offices were relocated to a trailer. An Open House to view renovation progress at the end of the month attracted about 200 residents.
By August the kitchen framing was complete, the epoxy flooring was laid, and insulation and drywall was installed. The kitchen equipment was cleaned, refurbished and re-installed.
Next, the Pro Shop was relocated to the cart barn. Contracts were issued to Viking Construction for rough and finishing carpentry, to ARC1 for metal and wood doors and frames, to R&D construction for metal studs and drywall, to Accent for audio/visual work, and to ADT for security and monitoring services.
By September Clubhouse renovation was 60% complete and ahead of schedule despite some unforeseen problems. Ninety percent of the outside of the building was completed. Stucco was complete, the roof was mostly complete, exterior doors were installed and Lee County had approved the design of the handicap ramp and a contract to complete the ramp was signed. Studding was completed in the interior, and sound insulation and wallboard was installed on the lower level.
Work in the Pro Shop began for a planned opening October 27 with temporary air. On the upper level studding was complete and the kitchen was mostly complete. The renovated office space was available in November. The mold study company (AMRC) reported that the building was now “mold free.” Contracts were within budget.
A construction completion date was set for December 15, 2006. The interior décor was begun, putting everything in place. The parking lot was re-paved. Exterior landscaping and clean up followed. Final inspection and other details were completed and the opening date was set for January 22, 2007.
(continued on page 22)
Clubhouse restoration didn’t keep the residents from their volunteer contributions. Kimberly Christenson took over CCTV in May. The Master Board approved the Country Creek website, and operation began in June thanks to the web site team of Dale Erickson, Pat Callen, Eldon Fredericks, and Allen Cummins, with Dale as web master. The Charity Yard and Bake sale raised $6876.
In 2006 home values in the area skyrocketed. In the Villages at Country Creek, single-family homes were selling in the $400,000s, condos at $299,000, villas at $369,900, and manor homes at $329,000. In greater Estero, fewer housing units were permitted during the first eleven months of 2006 than in the same period in any year since 2000. In spite of this decline, the average building value, excluding the land beneath it, was far higher than in any prior year and almost double the average price in 2000.
The value of commercial buildings permitted in Estero during the first eleven months of 2006 totaled $177 million. The next highest commercial permit total for that period, $75 million, was in 2000, when the Hyatt Coconut Point Resort was permitted. The major projects that contributed to the 2006 total are the Coconut Point Town Center, the Lowe’s store in the Estero Town Commons, Phase 5 of the Miromar Outlets Center, office buildings in Estero Park Commons, the Walgreens Drug Store in Paradise Shoppes, (northwest corner of U.S. 41 and Williams Road), the Lee County Utilities facility on the south side of Corkscrew Road east of I-75, the Barkis Car Wash south of the Corkscrew Village Shopping Center on U.S. 41, and several Empire Builders office buildings in the Galleria project.
Building was booming and prices were rising. We thought that year, 2007, could only be better for the housing market in South Florida.
Cane Toads
LOIS CHRISTENSEN
As the rainy season gets underway in Southwest Florida, you may see an influx of cane toads in your backyard and surrounding areas. Cane toads are one of the largest species of toad in the world posing a danger to pets due to their toxic nature. Native to South America, the species was originally introduced to Florida in the 1930s-1940s in an attempt to control agricultural pests in sugar cane fields, and the pet trade contributed with releases and escapees during the 50s-60s.
shoulder region that produce a bufotoxin, a powerful toxin that can be fatal to pets if ingested. This toxin is capable of causing severe illness or death to potential predators and poses a threat to our native wildlife and to any pets that attempt to attack them.
NATIVE SOUTHERN TOAD
INVASIVE CANE TOAD
While not aggressive, they possess enlarged parotoid glands on their neck and
It is important to note that there are other toad species that are native to Southwest Florida. The native southern toad is the species most likely to be misidentified as the cane toad. The large size is often the first noticeable feature of cane toads. However, cane toads are not always bigger than southern toads, so it is important to be familiar with features that help distinguish the species when they are both a similar size.
The best features to look for are the southern toad head crests! When southern
toads are around an inch and a half in length they start to display small ridges of crests on their heads, between the eyes, while the area between cane toad’s eyes will always remain flat. It is almost impossible to distinguish the two species when they are at any other life state (eggs, tadpoles) or smaller toad in size.
Cane toads prefer habitats created and inhabited by humans. They are particularly common in yards, golf courses, and school campuses. (However, they do not appear to invade most natural areas in the state.) They eat almost anything of appropriate size and are often drawn to pet food left outside. Make your yard less appealing by using
yellow bug lights, not leaving pet food or water outside after dark, and removing brush piles.
Unfortunately, dogs and cats that attack or try to eat this highly toxic toad can be poisoned. Dogs are considerably more likely than cats to attempt to eat them, especially dogs like terriers that readily attack small animals. Severity of symptoms varies depending on the amount of toxin ingested and the size of the animal that attacked the toad, but signs of cane toad poisoning in pets include unusually pink or red gums, drooling or frothing at the mouth, pawing at the mouth, seizures, and sometimes cardiac arrest. Reports of pets, particularly dogs, falling sick or dying after attempting to eat cane toads are not uncommon in southern Florida. If you suspect your pet has eaten or attacked a cane toad, wipe its mouth out with a damp rag and use a hose to rinse its mouth for 15 minutes, making sure the water flows out of the
mouth and not down the throat. And immediately contact your veterinarian!
Additionally, the secretion from cane toad parotoid glands is highly irritating to human eyes and cuts on skin. Therefore, cane toads should be handled with gloves and extreme care should be taken to avoid getting toxin in eyes—wash hands thoroughly after handling a cane toad.
To get rid of cane toads in Florida, humanely kill them on your property, or consider hiring a wildlife trapper. Cane toads are not protected in Florida except by anticruelty laws, and they can be removed and killed yearround on private property with landowner permission.
Here’s how to safely remove and euthanize cane toads:
1. Identify the toad: Make sure you’re dealing with a cane toad and not a native Southern toad, which is beneficial to the ecosystem.
skin protection, and gloves (latex, rubber, or nitrile) when handling.
3. Humanely euthanize: The University of Florida recommends rubbing or spraying 20% benzocaine toothache gel or sunburn spray on the toad’s back or lower belly. After a few minutes, it will be unconscious.
4. Freeze for 24-48 hours: Place the unconscious toad in a sealed plastic bag and store it in the freezer for 2448 hours to ensure it is fully euthanized.
5. Dispose of the toad: Do not bury the toad; place it in the trash.
Important note: Captured cane toads cannot be relocated and released, according to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
2. Safety first: Wear eye and

Care Bears
KAREN DOUGHERTY
This has been a very busy season for Care Bears. But that’s pretty normal. I want to thank the VCC Volunteers for giving Care Bears additional space and for enclosing the ceiling of the storage shed so that our equipment will stay clean. We are very fortunate to have the necessary medical equipment that we are blessed to have been given through donations to provide our community with this valuable amenity. So thank you Country Creek residents for your donations!
Unfortunately, our need for these items doesn’t end at the end of “season”. Our permanent residents continue to need things all summer long. We are here to assist and, when necessary, provide rides to appointments all year round.
At this time, if you are returning items to Care Bears, please remember to clean them before giving them back. Also, it would be a great help to me if you would give me notice when you will be returning anything. Actually, a notice ahead of time is a big help to me when you are needing equipment also.
If you are in need of Care Bears, please call me at 217-220-0626. Thanks everyone for their support. Karen Dougherty
