Volume 22, Issue 7
July 2024 PRESIDENT’S PEN Do you ever wonder who is involved behind the scenes at Windsor Gardens? Well, recently, the accomplishments of our staff have been especially notable, and Bobbie these individuals should Mays, be recognized with a Board thumbs-up or thank you. President Only a few are named here; there are many more who deserve to be recognized. A recent hailstorm left much of our community in need of immediate attention. On Saturday and Sunday after the storm, several grounds crew members were here to clean up what was left behind. The tremendous aftermath was exhausting for these workers, especially after working the previous week in the hot weather, and they reported to work without complaint again on Monday to resume their regular duties. The community BBQ was well attended by approximately 400 residents and family members. This event required a lot of preparation for feeding so many people! Activities Director Steve Follweiler, the activities staff, and additional administrative staff were there to make sure everything ran smoothly. We also appreciate the many volunteers who helped serve the food, not to mention the helpful hands who pitched in for the set-up and cleanup tasks. I can't tell you how many bags of trash needed to be disposed of, recycling items dumped, PRESIDENT'S PEN continued on page 4
