September 2024 PRESIDENT’S PEN At Windsor Gardens, we have a vast number of volunteers who are seen daily in various areas. Our community is a diverse Bobbie Mays, population, with many Board actively offering their President time and skills to benefit neighbors and friends. I often hear of people who check on others in their buildings, transport individuals to appointments or run errands for those who do not drive. I see individuals sitting on benches talking with others who may be unable to walk along the circle, enjoying a focused conversation. Buildings usually make a point to do things that include many of their residents. Picnics or outings for shopping, lunch, dinners or game days or happy hour in units are just a few examples. How about those folks who volunteer to organize and facilitate clubs and groups on a regular basis? They do it in an effort to benefit others. Organizing these activities takes time. If you attend dances, movies, pool parties or other events, volunteers always help make them happen. When you open Windsor Life and see the many areas we as residents are invited to participate in, wow, the number of interesting opportunities keeps growing. Many of these are the result of the efforts of volunteers who give up their time to keep the activity going. The individuals who sit in CenterPoint and act as receptionists for our activities PRESIDENT'S PEN continued on page 4
