And, when your event is complete, please send any pictures you took to sunshinecountryclubweb@gmail.com so I can post them as well. Please keep in mind. one of the main purposes of the Web site is to promote our community as a super place to live. I know a lot of you found out about this great community by viewing the Web site. Therefore, I will be relying on both the Office and "all of you" to keep me informed of what activities and events are being planned and taking place over the summer. I am already hearing about some things in the works, but have not received anything to send to the community so that everyone knows about it. So lets promote, promote, promote. And as a final note - Don't forget to complete an 'Activity Request' form so that your event gets added to the Events Calendar by the Office. Please call with any questions. And to those of you whom I may not see prior to this Friday, have a super fun summer and I'll see you in the fall.

God Bless them. -- Lenore J Combs Sent 2022-03-03: SEPO Communications Changes - As some of you know I have been looking into ways to free up my time from all of my Volunteer efforts for this wonderful community. I need to get some of my life back. Anyway, I have been reviewing all of the 'communications' tasks I perform concerning the Newsletter, E-Mail and the Web site. The Newsletter came first. After several months of asking for help or turning it over to someone, Sue (Sue-Bob) Swidryk has graciously accepted the responsibility of preparing and distributing the Women's Club Newsletter to the community ongoing, starting with the Oct 2022 publication. E-Mail was next. I will continue to send SEPO E-Mails but will be changing the timing of when I send them. Instead of sending the e-mails out whenever I sit down at the computer and see them in my Inbox, I will be doing the following. When a SEPO e-mail arrives in my Inbox I will 'queue' it up to be sent overnight. By doing this you won't have to be checking your e-mail throughout the day (which most of you probably don't do anyway - HA). You will see everything the first time you log into your e-mail (at whatever time of day that may be). This new process will start next Monday, March 7 . I hear some of you asking yourself - what if I need something sent out right away? The solution to sending 'emergency' e-mails is for you to either 'call' or 'text' me and let me know of the urgency. I will send it as soon as I can. NOTE: I will continue to update the Web site with all e-mails sent HERE . I will do this as time permits within 24 hours of an e-mail being sent. Now for the Web site. MARKET - Homes for Sale or Rent : I will continue to list these the same as I do now. Looking For AND Household+ For Sale will be Going Away at 5PM on March 15. I know this may upset some people. Although it is not difficult to do, it does take time to put those listings out there, most of the time with pics and then follow that up with an e-mail informing the community the page(s) were updated. And on multiple occasions I just get the info out there and I get a notice that the items sold immediately. Hence, I have to go out and delete everything I just added. As Background - Both of these pages were created when Covid-19 hit. No one was allowed to enter the Library, which is previously where these types of items were posted. Now you are free to go to the library 24 hrs a day. I will be asking the Board President, the Board Director of the SEPO Buildings and Valerie to determine if a different and/or better spot can be set aside in the Office/Library for residents to physically post these types of items ongoing. The community will be notified of the outcome of this review. OTHER WEB PAGES - I plan to do a thorough review this summer of how the Web site is set up and what types of information is being posted. I would appreciate any and all constructive criticism/help with making the Web site a useful place for our Residents/Renters to obtain information. And I also want to make it as enticing as possible to attract new residents to our community. On a final note, I will be updating any affected Communications Guidelines as my time permits and notify everyone when the guidelines have been updated on the Web site. If anyone has any questions, comments etc. about any of the above, please feel free to contact me. Thx for your understanding with these changes.

This letter is to help remind you, while you are “back home in the northlands" , to consider maintaining this tradition for our 2024 Tournament. We are soliciting your help in continuing to prepare “Gift Baskets” of items found locally in your area during your summer stay. We suggest selecting things that set your home area apart from others. These gift baskets will be awarded as prizes during our Awards Banquet. I am aware of several recipients in the past of these unique gift basket prizes, who have indicated how blessed they were to receive these baskets, and they genuinely appreciated Sunshine Residents’ generosity. In our 2023 Awards Banquet, one of the people who received a Gift Basket in the prior year donated a beautiful quilt made by his wife to pay it forward. For example, I most recently lived in Lafayette, Louisiana. So, I will put together a basket of “Cajun items”; seasoning, rice, Tabasco/hot sauces, Beignet mix, cookbooks, and locally brewed beer/wine for our gift basket. Just think of items your area is famous for and start accumulating them to bring back with you. We want the baskets in the $30-$50 value range. By preparing the baskets we are also providing a showcase for various products that are in North America where Sunshine Estate residents live during the summertime. I hope to see everyone in the Valley in a few months.

S EPO Community E-Mails: April 2021 Sent 2021-04-28:Pool and hot tub - The repairman came today. He ordered the part to fix the heater for the pool. It might be here by Friday. The pool is usable just not heated. We are aware that half the jets in the hot tub are not working. One of the Big Jets that controls half the little jets in the hot tub is broken. The Big Jet is old. Our repairman is searching for replacement parts. We hope he can locate them because buying a new Big Jet will be very expensive. That being explained, we will limp along with half the little jets working while we explore what needs to be done to fix the situation. The hot tub is hot and usable. Thanks for your patience.

Valerie Basaldua Office Mgr Sent 2021-04-07: FOUND: Drill - A drill was found on the road and has been turned into the Office. Valerie Basaldua Sent 2021-04-06: PLEASE READ: Hot Tub Facts - Did you know? Children under the age of 5 should not be allowed in any hot tub. It is just too dangerous for their little bodies. Children are susceptible to ear infections and damaging their eyes if they put their heads under water. (Adults too). There is a higher concentration of impurities (urine, dead body cells, etc.) in a hot tub than a pool. There is less water in a hot tub to dilute the impurities than in a swimming pool. KEEP YOUR HEAD ABOVE WATER while in a hot tub. A child’s body is not as efficient at regulating its body temperature as an adult's. Children can experience hyperthermia quickly. Hot tubs should not be considered play areas. If a youngster goes in the hot tub, he or she should SIT for a maximum of 5 to 10 minutes depending upon the size of the youngster. A responsible adult should be within an arm's length of the youngster at all times. The Red Cross recommends that hot tubs regularly used by children be under 100 degrees. The Sunshine hot tub is set at 102 degrees. After reading this, if you want your young ones to use the hot tub, please, monitor them very, very carefully.

SEPO Board Sent 2021-04-02: SEPO & Covid-19: Pool, Hot Tub & Pavilion - Past SEPO & Covid-19 Board decisions concerning the Pool, Hot Tub and Pavilion being closed have been largely based on CDC guidelines. After reviewing the CDC Information Release dated April 2, 2021, which includes the lifting of travel restrictions for vaccinated individuals, the following was approved by a consensus of the Board, via e-mail, on April 2, 2021. The Pool, Hot Tub and Pavilion are reopened, effective immediately, to the following individuals. Immediate families of Owners & Renters who have been vaccinated . Guests of Owners & Renters who have been vaccinated . Per the SEPO Policies & Procedures - Immediate family is defined as mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, grandchildren, brothers, sisters, and the spouse of any of the preceding persons. You are fully vaccinated two (2) weeks after having received the last dose. Vaccine numbers are up and vaccines are more available - many are immunized. Travel restrictions for those vaccinated have been waived. Recommendations for unvaccinated travelers remain in place. No one has the right to ask anyone if they are vaccinated. The SEPO Board believes our Owners & Renters are responsible enough to respect the guidelines outlined above. As a reminder, the current Policies & Procedures state: POOL AND HOT TUB AREA Shower before using pools to remove any lotions. Soap is not allowed in the showers. Diving into the pool is not allowed. Running in the pool area is not allowed. If your guests are young children, keep them under control and have an adult supervising them. Throwing any object into the pool or pool area is not allowed.

Sent 2020-11-14: Sunshine Heroes Wall of Honor - Project Background - It was decided here at Sunshine that we would recognize our neighbors, not for a single act of heroism but their heroic service. We wanted to recognize the people from our community who made a commitment to give part of their lives for the benefit of others. This is what the SUNSHINE HEROES Wall of Honor represents. It is our way to recognize them and say thank you for your service. Last Spring in Retzlaff Hall, we unveiled our Sunshine Heroes Wall of Honor complete with their engraved names on an individual metal plate. There is also a Memory Book of photos of our heroes. This touching monument serves as a reminder that many of our residents sacrificed their lives for the freedom we enjoy today. (See picture below.) You may support this wall by completing an application and some brief information (form available at SEPO Office). We would like a photo in uniform. Jim Tennant is available for questions 616 866 9960. What is a Veteran? - whether retired, discharged, active duty or reserve – is someone who at one point in his or her life, wrote a blank check made payable to ”The United States of America” for an amount up to and including his or her life. (Author unknown) What Is A Hero? - Dictionary.com defines a hero as a person noted for courageous acts or nobility of character. A true hero is someone who gives of themselves for the benefit of others, sometimes at great personal risk. There are many in our community who have given parts of their lives in the service of our country regardless of the risk. There are those who have chosen a career of community service – Law enforcement, First Responders and Fire Fighters are examples. All these people have given freely of themselves for the benefit of others. These are a few examples of what we can all recognize as heroes, but we do not usually honor them for their service. If you save a person from a car accident or give CPR to someone you would be recognized for heroism. The person who donates blood to help others is a hero. A person who may donate an organ or bone marrow is a hero. Are these very special people any more heroic then the others who served us? Jim Tennant Wall of Honor (Ongoing) Sent 2020-03-21: SUNSHINE HEROES - As another winter season comes to a close, I just want to give you all a reminder about the SUNSHINE HEROES wall. In case you haven’t seen it, the wall is up in Retzlaff Hall and has 41 names on it. Those of you who have made a pledge for this project, I will be coming around this week to collect. I want to thank all those who have donated to this project both monetarily and with their time and labor. The applications are still available from Valerie in the SEPO office. When you complete your application return it to Valerie along with your picture. If you do not have a picture or prefer a current picture be sure to check the box on the form that you will need a picture taken. I will be contacting you upon my return in the fall to take a current picture for this book. Remember as we travel home to be safe and when you get there find your favorite picture of you or your spouse, in uniform or not, to be placed in the book that is placed with the display wall. I want to have this SUNSHINE HEROS display to represent all of the people who served. Jim Tennant 4161 N Missouri (616)866-9960 Email: jimbuck1050@yahoo.com Back to Top

Good Neighbor Day Golf Tournament Committee Chairman - Tony Tramel Sent 2023-01-26: Good Neighbor Day Golf Tournament ( GNDGT) info - Hello Sunshine Friends and Neighbors, The 37th annual Good Neighbor Day G olf Tournament (GNDGT) on March 2-4th is fast approaching. This is a 27-hole, 3-day golf scramble, with an awards dinner on Saturday evening. We have had more than 180 people participate in this event in the past. It is a fun tournament for 55+ aged persons. Each year we encourage Sunshine Country Club residents to participate in any way they are most comfortable. We know that everyone is not a golfer, but this event is a perfect way to get involved in our community and “Let the Sunshine In!” Although the GNDGT Committee will purchase many gifts for the Award Dinner, in the past, we asked residents to consider preparing a gift basket and donating it for the drawing/awards dinner. Gift baskets have been a great success as a personal prize during the awards dinner. Many residents donated these baskets, which the recipients greatly appreciated during the drawing. This year we would also like to open the possibility of Donations. If you would like to participate with a donation, here are some ideas: Gift baskets valued at $25- $50, filled with “new items,” (In past years, many of the baskets were filled with items of their favorite sports team or “New” items purchased from any local retailer or even your hometown). You might consider donating a Gift Card. You can donate any amount from local retailers, including restaurants. Direct monetary donations are also welcome; don’t hesitate to contact the committee chair to make this happen. Gift baskets and other donations must be received before the March 2nd event date. Our goal is to have fun before and during this event! Don't hesitate to contact the GNDGT Chairperson, Tony Tramel, at 337-693-6344 or trtramel@gmail.com regarding donations and/or other questions.

I definitely want to ensure everyone - it was a 'technical' error. The Google Meet session said it was recording and I verified to Tony just prior to the meeting that I thought it was as well. You will hear that on the recording I'm linking to below. However, the meeting did not get recorded. Normally Tony gets an e-mail from Google within 2-5 hrs after the meeting stating the video is available for downloading. This time - no e-mail - no video. In order for me to be accurate and thorough (or as some may interpret as lengthy - LOL) I also start my tape recorder at the beginning of all of our meetings. In order to be totally transparent with the community, which I guess you could call this Board's motto, I have uploaded my tape recording to the Web site for anyone who wishes to listen to the meeting. Please remember, this recorder is lying beside my laptop, and I also shuffle through lots of paper during a meeting, so you will hear those noises as well. I have listened to the entire tape, and you will definitely be able to hear what transpired during the meeting. It is a ".mp3" file and is available: from the Residents Meetings Web site page or directly from this link . As I have stated previously, a recap of all Speaker Requests (which there were five of them during the Residents meeting on Dec 13) will also be recorded into the Board meeting minutes from Dec 14, which I will be sending to the community next week. Please call me with any issue/questions.

At this meeting we did have five Speaker Requests. As per process, these will be documented as part of the minutes from the Dec 14, 2021 Regular Board Meeting.

SEPO E-News E-Mail Guidelines "Do Not Reply" Updated 04-01-2021 (Rev #1) Concerning Replies to SEPO E-Mails Hi All – I know we have had lots of new neighbors move into Sunshine this year. So, the following may be new to some of you. This is also a reminder to those of you who have seen my ‘do not reply ’ request before. My ultimate goal with these guidelines is to help you understand why you shouldn’t reply to a SEPO e-mail (sepoenews@gmail.com ) unless you are requested to do so . Here is how things work when you want an e-mail sent to the community. A resident sends information that he/she wants the SEPO Community to see by e-mailing that info to sepoenews@gmail.com . The Guidelines for requesting a SEPO e-mail to be sent are located on the Web site here . An e-mail request from the resident comes to the sepoenews mailbox, which is monitored by the SEPO E-Mail Admin . At the current time that is Beth Parrish. Upon receipt of an e-mail request, please allow 48 hrs for it to be sent out. However, they are often sent the same day. If your request is an emergency – please state that, and it will get sent out as quickly as possible. When preparing to send the e-mail a Resident requested, it is copied and pasted into a system called Send-In-Blue. That is why you see the ‘unsubscribe’ message and the sendinblue Logo at the bottom of each e-mail sent. If you wish to unsubscribe from our newsletter, click here 5. When you receive a Community E-Mail from the Send-In-Blue system the following are constant: The ‘From’ always says SEPO Community . The ‘To’ is the e-mail address that you, as a Resident, has supplied to the e-mail admin. So now – in ending this long explanation – here are the KEY points to remember: The e-mail admin is the only one who receives REPLIES to the sepoenews mailbox. That means the admin is the one who would need to ‘forward’ your reply to the composer of the e-mail - which is far too time consuming to do. That is why it is so important to reply to the COMPOSER of the e-mail (unless you are requested to reply directly to sepoenews@gmail.com ). All Resident e-mails that have been supplied to the e-mail Admin are HERE . I am sure most of you know the Communications Manager does spend a lot of time working on SEPO E-Mails, the Web site and the Newsletter. That person is happy to volunteer to do this, but also wants you to understand some of what is done and why the request is made 'not to reply’ to the e-mails sent out. Thanks for your understanding with this matter. Beth Parrish SEPO E-Mail E-News Admin E-Mail: sepoenews@gmail.com 314-960-6710 Back to Top
