  • 2025-04 Emails | Sunshine Estates

    S EPO Community Emails: April 2025 Sent 2025-04-30: WC - Cinco de Mayo Party/Potluck - Randy Davis (From Facebook) Sent 2025-04-28: SCCE Fishing Association Raffle - Pat Heinerikson, Director, Area 1, accepts $400 checks from Bill Peterson, President SCCE Fishing Association to use for improvements/expenses for the billard and the fitness rooms. The donation was made possible from using proceeds from the fishing club raffle held earlier this year. Winners from the raffle were as third prize, dining and pet grooming gift certificates, Larry Jeneson. Tony graciously donated the fishing trip back to the club which allowed us to provide a larger donation to SEPO. Thank you to all to participated and supported the raffle. - From Facebook (Deb Eich) Sent 2025-04-27: Golf Course Aeration - Golf crew will be doing the spring aerating of the greens starting on Monday. They will post a hole closed sign on the box of the greens starting Monday they are working on. Please skip that hole - From Facebook (Scott Kronshage, SEPO Board) Sent 2025-04-26: Tree Cutting - Hi All – Those of you who are still physically in Sunshine are aware of the status of the tree in front of the office. I would like to share this and additional info with you and also everyone else who has already left the community for the summer, for vacation, etc. I have attached three photos; before after a clogged gutter showing the leaves that are in it now. Before After Clogged Gutter Cutting down this tree will allow us to look at the possibilities moving forward by not allowing this tree to clog gutters and add a burden of more water to our roofs. I’m doing everything I can to keep the cost down concerning roof repair, which we will focus on in the fall. It would be more cost-effective to do the roof's gutters and downspouts all in one fell swoop, rather than piecework, where they would have to take apart some of the material that they have installed to do additional work, rather than do everything all at one time. Concerning the garden that was under the tree, I have spoken with Susanne and she is looking forward to presenting it to the Garden Club and/or the Women’s Club to come up with an idea of what we’d like to put in that area. Personally I would like to see an outdoor area of some sort where somebody could have a quiet lunch around a picnic table away from the pool area and/or a nice little outdoor meeting area with native plants, cactuses and palms that require little to no maintenance. I believe this would be an asset for ourselves and future owners in our community as a nice first impression when they pull up to the office. You can direct questions / concerns to me. Pat Heinerikson, SEPO Board Director (Common Area 1) 816-810-2862 heineriksonp@gmail.com Sent 2025-04-26: Common Courtesy Request - When a 'mess' is made in a common area in our community, it is common courtesy to clean it up yourself, notify a SEPO employee for assistance or notify a board member for assistance. Last week, a board member was notified that there was human feces on the floor in the fitness room women's bathroom. This unhealthy situation was not attended to for almost 24 hours. This is unacceptable for so many reasons. We understand accidents happen, but PLEASE don't leave a mess and then walk away without doing something. If you see something, say something so these situations can be addressed immediately. Thank you. - SEPO Board Sent 2025-04-24: Texas Ave - Hi, This is to address the conversations, emails and phone calls I've had with many of the owners at Sunshine, about the email John Chajec recently sent. John sent an email to many in the community talking about the drainage ditches, retention area and the possibility of dredging in the wetland area near Texas Ave. I believe the thought is to allow for more water to be stored in the retention area. I reached out to Pat Harvey to see what the history was with this area and if Sunshine had ever dredged there? Pat said that Sunshine had not. Pat told me he reached out to many of the local government entities and the state, when they were doing improvements to Texas Ave. And was told that it was under the jurisdiction of the Army Core of Engineers. Pat had a conversation with them and the short version was do not dig, fill or disturb the area that John is referring to, as the retention area. It is part of a Watershed District they control. Pat told me that the Army Core of Engineers had created the pond west of Sunshine when the intestate was built. One of the items John discussed in his email was how much water from our neighbors comes into Sunshine. We are unfortunately from my observations and the phone call with Pat, the low spot in the neighborhood. So any heavy rains in the area, ultimately go through those ditches behind Minnesota Ave. And if the ditches north and east (downstream) are full, there's no where for our water to go. I think I understand the intent of the email and I'm sympathetic to those concerns, but having spoken to Pat about this and his conversation with the Army Core of Engineers, I don't see removing material from that area as an option for storing excess water. If anyone has other information about this area, feel free to contact me. - Tom Perrier SEPO Board Director Area 2 Sent 2025-04-22: Pump - Hi all! Someone has unplugged the pump at the Texas Avenue dog park. If there’s a problem with the pump please let me know or the office. The pump is on a GFI outlet, but where it’s at is in standing water. If that GFI fails you could get electrocuted. Lalo is installing a lock on the box. Thank you - Tom Perrier, SEPO Board Sent 2025-04-20: Construction materials in the Sunshine streets - For you walkers out there, over the next few weeks, if you wouldn’t mind keeping an eye out for nails and screws in the road. It’s not really a late Easter egg hunt, but it would help our community tremendously. If you pick up more than 20 in a day, you can brag if you wish. However, as a reminder there is a section in the SEPO Policies & Procedures that directly addresses this sort of situation. CONSTRUCTION The disposal of any residue from a resident/homeowner’s construction site is the responsibility of the property owner. It is the responsibility of the property owner to maintain the site in an orderly and safe condition. Any building material (nail, screw, etc.) originating from the site that might puncture a tire found on an adjacent street or driveway and turned in to the SEPO Office shall result in a fine of $10 per item. The fine shall be added to the homeowner’s monthly or annually assessed association fees. - SEPO Board Sent 2025-04-18: WC Easter Sunrise Service: Printable Flyer - You can access a printable flyer for the Sunday Easter service HERE .

If anyone has any comments/questions they would like to address to the Board, I would encourage them do so. You can find the minutes on the Web site HERE .

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.

  • Election 2024 Ballots | Sunshine Estates

    SEPO 2024 Election: Ballots Sunshine Estates Property Owners, Inc., (SEPO) governs Sunshine Country Club Estates (SCCE). ********************* ******** ********************* Each Ballot to be voted on (exc luding th e SEPO Board Candidates ) are lis ted below. The followin g 'three' Ballots all pertain to the Covenants. NOTE: If you do not submit any vote for a Covenant, it is counted as a NO vote toward the requirement to pa ss. 2024-03: NEWSLETTER - 2024 SEPO Election I want to personally congratulate the newly elected 2024 SEPO Board members: Tracy Wagner, Randy Davis and Scott Kronshage. And thanks to those who are retiring from the 2024 Board: Share Nelson and Mark Owen. I know from personal experience being on the SEPO Board is not an easy ‘volunteer’ job, but it can be very rewarding as well. I want to again thank the many (25 or so) SEPO resident volunteers who assisted me on the 2024 SEPO Election Committee. All of that work could not have been accomplished without you. It was a learning experience for lots of us and we came away with some lessons learned, which I hope will make the process even smoother next year. I published the election results in a SEPO email, but thought it was worthwhile attaching it to this Newsletter as well. The results of the 2024 SEPO Election were presented during the 3 PM portion of the Annual meeting on Feb 20, 2024. Each of the three Board Candidates, Tracy Wagner, Randy Davis and Scott Kronshage were elected to fill the three open Board positions. Immediately after the Annual meeting the 2024 Board members held the Required Board meeting and determined which members would fill which Board positions. This document is available on the Sunshine Website HERE at the SEPO Board 'Contact Us' button. The proposed Covenants descriptions and the tallies of the Ballots submitted and 'not' submitted' for all three proposals are below. To change a Covenant requires 205 'approvals' of the 306 possible ballots. As was emphasized before the election, if you did not submit a ballot for a Covenants proposal, it is an automatic 'DISAPPROVE' vote. Any questions please feel free to contact me any time. - Beth Parrish, 2024 SEPO Election Committee Chairperson 2024-02: NEWSLETTER - SEPO Board FROM THE PRESIDENT We have an election coming up and with it three ballots to vote on. I will address each briefly. 1. A change to Architectural Control Committee (ACC) Rules in Exhibit B. of Covenants . As it is currently written, colors of storage buildings must be earth tones of tan, brown or gray. The change would be to allow the owner’s choice of color subject to final review of ACC. As with any outside improvement in Sunshine, approval must be given by ACC. As to houses in the community, they have posted in the library colors that are acceptable. That differs from the rules set out in the ACC Rules for storage buildings. Some storage buildings are already in colors other than in the Rules. They did not receive approval for that. Rather than make people re-paint their buildings to conform, we feel if the residents are alright with those colors, it should be changed to allow it in the Covenants. 2. Another change is in ARTICLE VI. Currently anyone can reside here (longer than one month) who is 18 years of age and older as long as they are residing in a home with someone 55 years of age or older. When you were looking for a retirement community, you weren’t thinking that your neighbors might be an 18-year-old, or a 20- or 25-year-old. You were probably thinking they would be somewhat near your own age. What would you have in common with that younger age group socially? What if, for instance, Grandma has a college age grandson attending a local college and he has three or four friends who would all like to come stay with Grandma during school. We have a pool, tennis, all kinds of great attractions. Now we have the equivalent of a frat house. And we would all love those weekend parties! That may never happen, but it could. The change would move the minimum age to live here with another person 55 or older to 40 years old. 3. The last change is in ARTICLE VIII. It is simple. House Bill 614 establishes enforcement policies and refers to fines. It is already set out in our adopted “ Rules and Regulations Pertaining to Non-compliance to Covenants Fee Schedule .” Our attorney tells me the courts do not look at semantics, so our fee schedule is enforceable. He would not and has not hesitated to take it to court. This is simply to have our Covenants match the wording in the law. - Share Nelson, SEPO Board President Back to Top

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 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.

Contact me if you have any questions etc. Thanks Lenore J Combs 956 245 1276 ___________________________________________________________________________________________ TOYS FOR TOTS - 2020 Hello Everyone here at Sunshine, Earlier today, the Harlingen Police Department dropped off a Toys For Tots box. It will be in the Sunshine Library for the next few weeks just waiting to overflow. If you can find it in your heart to donate a toy for this cause, it would be deeply appreciated. The mission is to provide a tangible sign of hope to economically disadvantaged children at Christmas. It is one of the top rated charities and our PD teams up with the local Marine Corps League. It is also a 501 C (3). A donated ~ ten dollar toy of your choice will make some child’s day. Just wrap it simply with a ribbon and place “BOY" or "GIRL" and the age visibly on the bottom. Ultimately, Harlingen PD, with its partners, has access for the distribution plan which is usually mid December. I have worked a bunch of these and they are breathtaking – to see the kid’s eyes light up for a gift – and to see them sit on Santa’s lap for a photo op – wow! Thanking you in advance for your marvelous generosity. Lenore J. Combs 956 245 1276 Harlingen Citizens Police Academy Alumni Member Newsletter 2021-01: Toys for Tots - Hello everyone here at Sunshine, December 2020 – Congrats - Thanks and Blessings to each and every one who participated in this year’s Toys For Tots initiative via the Harlingen Police Department. Mission accomplished! The goal is and has been to bring the joy of Christmas and send a message of hope to America’s less fortunate children, in particular for children in our area. HPD came to Sunshine with some toys to be wrapped. They took back the equivalent of at least four topped-off huge boxes stuffed with beautifully wrapped donated gifts. On behalf of Assistant Chief of Police Miryam Anderson and Sgt. Fechner, our HPD District Representative, they are most grateful. You all outdid yourselves with love and generosity – but that has always been the Sunshine way. Thanks again. I have a few photos that Beth Parrish (SEPO Communications Manager) has posted below.

There will be a signup sheet in the library on the 14th. The date to ring bells is Friday, November 27, 2020.

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.
