WELCOME I hope you and your family and friends are enjoying the winter season and the hint of spring in the air.

We have already experienced many delightful activities and events at Windsor, and there is more to come.

In January, we hosted a pop-up dinner presented by the famed New York culinary institute Le Cirque. It was a sold-out affair with exquisite food and wine. Mauro Maccioni, Le Cirque co-owner and son of the restaurant’s founder Sirio Maccioni, was on hand to tell guests about each course and to share stories about the restaurant and his family’s experiences.

PLANNING A VISIT? ELITE AIRWAYS ADDS MORE NONSTOP FLIGHTS

Getting to and from Windsor is becoming even more convenient now that Elite Airways is adding more nonstop flights to the Vero Beach Regional Airport.

In 2015, the airline launched in Vero Beach with nonstop service to Newark, New Jersey, a popular route that allows travelers to bypass the international airports serving Vero Beach. Since then, Elite has added other nonstop routes, additional connections and flights.

Vero Beach has become the airline’s most successful market, according to President and CEO John Pearsall.

Although Elite Airways plans to expand its Vero Beach market even more in the future, many Windsor residents and visitors can still use the Melbourne, Orlando and Palm Beach airports, which are also easily accessible offering a high volume of direct flights.

LEGENDARY LE CIRQUE

CHILD’S PLAY AT

MCKEE BOTANICAL GARDEN

POPS UP AT WINDSOR

McKee Botanical Garden is a Vero Beach treasure. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this exceptional 18-acre botanical site features more than 10,000 native and tropical plants and one of the country’s largest and most diverse collections of waterlilies.

In February, Windsor Members enjoyed an inspiring talk by the founding Principal of Didier Design Studio, Emmanuel Didier, who shared his vision for McKee’s latest project – a Children’s Garden.

The evening presentation was part of the Windsor Community Spotlight Series. Throughout the season, this series showcases the area’s cultural offerings by inviting leaders of various nonprofit organizations to share news on their latest developments. The revolving series of lectures is held in Windsor’s Town Hall.

Although the Garden already successfully engages visitors through exhibits, educational programs, activities and events, the Children’s Garden at McKee will be a unique project that nurtures and promotes outdoor physical interaction and exploration for children who are growing up in a world surrounded by technology.

The plan is to create a fun and whimsical outdoor space that will inspire imagination and curiosity, where children can safely play in Windsor Members and their guests gathered at Windsor’s Beach Club in
