See you soon. - Tom Stone, President Birding and Nature Club Sent 2026-01-29: Birding & Nature Club - Info & Interest Survey - Birding & Nature Club – A legacy of positive impact for SEPO residents Early members played a significant role in making Texas Avenue what you see today. Previously, the swamp covered most of the current grassy areas where the dogs now walk. The club removed trees and other types of vegetation, brought in fill and worked to level the ground. Periodically, new trees and shrubs were planted, and identification plaques were installed. The original butterfly garden and fountain were installed. Berms and plantings were made behind the gazebo. Bird feeders were added and maintained. Last summer the metal mesh fence was installed to support vines. The goal of that area is to have native plants that continue to attract birds and butterflies. The club has held beginning birding classes, led bird walks in the community and around the RV “lakeside”. Field trips have gone to local birding hotspots. Bird books were donated to the library, and a community bird sighting list is maintained there. The club continues to host outside speakers. Some members have even participated in the annual Audubon Bird Count. To help keep the Birding & Nature club relevant to current SEPO residents, we would greatly appreciate it if you would take a couple of minutes to at least review the survey.

This little sticker identifies your vehicle as belonging in the Sunshine community. This makes it easier for the people on Neighborhood Watch. Several years ago, my car broke down on the expressway.

I took all the information, thinking that this would be a wonderful thing to do during our 2026-2027 season (our last directory was done in 2020-2021). I presented this project to the SEPO board at the February 9th board meeting, and it was approved as a SEPO sponsored event. At the Women’s Club meeting on February 20th, I talked about this project hoping to get a committee started. A huge thank you to Judy Stone and Jill Ventrello for chairing this project. Here is a summary of the details we know now: Dates of photo sessions: several days in both December 2026 & January 2027 (exact dates TBD). Every household photographed by Universal will receive a FREE 8 X 10 portrait and directory booklet. Universal will provide a professional studio right here in our community. If you have pets, you are allowed to include them in your photo(s). Bring props that express you and your personality such as instruments, sports equipment and hobby items. The photo you pick for the directory booklet will also be posted on our community website under the secure resident section. This photo directory project is open to homeowners and renters – we hope all of you will participate in getting your photo taken. Stay tuned for more details to be announced in future newsletters, emails, and Facebook postings. - Tracy Wagner, SEPO Treasurer

What wonderful hearts you have! - Mary Hull, Event Chairperson Newsletter 2025-10: DONATIONS NEEDED FOR SCHOOL CHRISTMAS PROGRAM! - This is a personal plea, not connected with Women's Club. I have been involved prior to coming here in doing a Christmas program for students at a school that has the neediest children in the area. Jefferson Elementary is that school in Harlingen. My goal is to have our Sunshine Resort bring "Sunshine" to 2nd graders (possibly 1st also depending on donations). My plan is to have a program with Santa and Mrs. Claus, music, treats. etc. I ordered backpacks, pillows (many don't have their own), and hope to give them a doll or car/truck and school supplies. Audra is making them caps with their school colors. I have already received several financial donations toward covering costs and some school supplies as well. Some of you prefer to remain anonymous, which I will do. But that does not prevent me from sending out a great big THANK YOU to those who have already donated. Also, if you'd like to be there that day, the more the merrier. You won't regret it. And I can't forget the teachers. If you'd like to provide a basket for teachers (or supplies to put in them), Kleenex, wipes, markers, scissors, etc., please contact me. God bless you all for considering being involved in whatever way you can! - Mary Hull 612-695-1600 Sent 2025-07-24: Jefferson Elementary Christmas program - I sent the below SEPO email (dated 07-21-2025) to the community on Monday for Mary Hull. And today I saw additional info concerning this personal endeavor on the "SCC Estates Group" Facebook page. Knowing some or you aren't on Facebook, I have set up a page on the Sunshine Website under the EVENTS Tab in this page (Special (Winter 2025-2026 )". If Mary sends me anything she wants to have an email sent about, I will do that. Otherwise, if you aren't on FB (or even if you are), you can check on the Sunshine website (this page) for updates. Hope this helps out you non-Facebookers. - Beth Parrish, SEPO Enews Email Manager Email: sepoenews@sunshinecountryclub.com 314-960-6710 - Mary Hull Facebook 2025-07-21: Backpack Donations - I found a place where I can order backpacks for $5.30 each for Jefferson Elementary but I'd need to order 48 (total $255). If anyone wants to donate toward this purchase, it would be much appreciated. Thank you. - Mary Hull Sent 2025-07-21: Jefferson Elementary Christmas program - Hi to all Sunshine residents! Hopefully most of you are back in your homes after repairs. You've all been in my prayers. This is a reminder that I'm asking for donations to provide a special Christmas for second graders at Jefferson Elementary, the poorest school in Harlingen. I'm asking for real barbie dolls and trucks/cars (nothing needing batteries), twin size pillows (our quilters are making pillowcases. Thank you ladies! ). Audra is making stocking caps in school colors..thank you so much! There are about 30 second graders. If we get more than enough, we will do first grade as well. But I wasn't sure how successful our venture would be so thought I'd start small. I'm trying to get a deal on backpacks so we can put crayons, pencils, rounded scissors, candy etc. We will gladly take financial donations to cover missing supplies. I will be back October 5. I have a special bank account specifically for donations. Pam Davis is my second in command so you can give her checks or cash prior to that. This is not a Women's Club activity, but a Sunshine "adoption" as I'd like to make this an annual thing. Anyone willing to come the day of the celebration is welcome to help. We will need a Santa and Mrs Claus and someone to lead singing Christmas songs. I've been involved at another park and you will not regret it. These kids are so happy. Most don't have their own pillows which is why we are doing that. So please open your hearts and participate however you can. You can always contact me for any information. Thank you in advance. God bless you! P.S. it was suggested to do teacher baskets with things like Kleenex, markers and maybe a little something special just for the teachers. - Mary Hull Sent 2025-03-21: DONATIONS REQUEST: Christmas for Jefferson Elementary 2nd graders - (From Facebook in March 2025) This is a request to all residents of Sunshine country Club Estates. I am planning a special Christmas for Jefferson Elementary 2nd graders(and possibly 1st). This school is 99%economically disadvantaged. My plan with your help will be to provide them each with a backpack filled with pencils, crayons erasers, coloring books, a toy from Santa and Mrs Claus...Barbies for the girls and a truck or car for the boys, a pillow and pillowcase(cases being made thanks to the quilting group), small stuffed animals, treats, and music. Many of you have already left for up north, if you find good deals on any of these items and would like to contribute, I can guarantee these children will be appreciative. I've experienced it in Brownsville. If you would prefer to contribute with a financial donation that will be used to purchase missing items or possibly cover another classroom, you can deposit a check earmarked for Jefferson but made out to me, Mary Hull or Pam Davis in the library. I have set up a checking account for this purpose only! I also have containers in the library for those of you that are full timers and want to drop them off. I almost forgot. It was suggested we put together a basket for the teachers as well . So tissue, hand sanitizer, kids scissors etc all are welcome. Thank you in advance for considering donating. And I will be in need of Santa's helpers that day. You'll never regret it. Let's bring Sunshine to some needy children. I will also post the above list of items requested in the library. I hope this can become an annual event. - Mary Hull, Event Chairperson Back to Top ************** Christmas Tree Decorating From Facebook 2025-12-02: by Mary Hull - What a fun afternoon decorating the hall.

SUMMER YARD CARE - As part of SEPO Policies and Procedures, if you will be leaving for the summer, please remember to contact Valerie in the office.

WILD ANIMALS IN AREA – We have received reports of some potentially dangerous wild animals on our property. This includes bobcats and javelinas along the resaca on Missouri Street and heading across onto the golf course near Wisconsin. These creatures are likely not a danger to humans, but we suggest keeping a close eye on smaller dogs/cats at night.
