Michigan Dr. Harlingen Tx 78550 - Valerie Basaldua Office Manager Sent 2022-06-24: Lounge & Pool - We are aware of the foul smell in the lounge. Be patient, we are working on finding the problem. Happy Fourth of July! On July 5th, the pool will close after the morning exercise classes. The pool will be partially drained. Our pool advisor has been advocating this for a couple of years. Immediately after the pool has finished draining, it will be refilled and chemicals added. The pool should be ready for use on the afternoon of July 6th. Please, note that the pool is closed the first Wednesday morning of each month for routine cleaning. Apparently, partially draining and refilling a pool allows the chemicals to work better. Since our pool hasn't been partially drained and refilled in years, we will see if it works. The hot tub will not be drained and will, only, be closed on Wednesday morning for its dose of monthly chemicals.

But it also says "Need Chairpersons". These dates were requested last March by me, only in order for this event to get on the calendar. We haven't had it for the last two seasons, due to Covid-19. So, I know there are residents who really want to see it started up again. Although that seems like a long time off, if this event is going to take place this season, now is the time for residents to step and volunteer to chair it. If you have never chaired such an event there are several residents who have chaired this and other similar golf events. I'm assuming they would be more than happy to get you going and answer any questions you may have. I believe a committee of about six to eight people can put this on. If you are interested, please contact me and I will assist you with getting the paperwork going for this. I do not play golf, but I know the people who have played in this tournament in the past have enjoyed it immensely. Thanks for your consideration.

Dale Hopfner & Sherri Gardner Casino Night Chairs (FROM 01-04-2019 E-NEWS): Casino Night - We are preparing for our 6th Annual Casino Night as well as "our" last. We have decided to step down as Casino night co-chairs. It has been an interesting and at times overwhelming experience. We feel we have it fine tuned now and it is a great fund raiser for the Women's Club. Therefore, it is our hope that someone else within our community would enjoy the challenge and continue this project and keep it going for the Women's Club! We feel that if it is dropped at this point, it would be difficult to reestablish, as well could end up with higher costs. So, we are hoping there are a few of you out there in our community, that would be willing to shadow us in our last year and see what it takes to operate. Now would be a great time to step up and learn the ropes! You are welcome to attend our next meeting on Tuesday and discuss any questions you may have or give either one of us a call if you are interested.

We never knew that Casino night would grow into such a popular event, but we are sure glad it did. Without the large number of volunteers it takes to run this event, our success would not have been possible. We are so grateful to all who have volunteered their time, effort and financial support to our Casino night. As well as to all of our Sponsors and all who attended our event and helped to make it one fun and exciting evening! Thank you as well to all who sing our praises, it is very much appreciated but humbling. Because it really does "take a village" and what a village we have here in Sunshine Estates.

Ronald McDonald Wish List (From 03-09-2019 E-News): Hi All! This is a reminder that on this coming Thursday, March 14, 2019 the Women's Club will be putting on a dance/fundraiser donating to Ronald McDonald House Charities. Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Rio Grande Valley supports our community by providing a "home-away-from-home" for families of critically ill or injured children at local hospitals and clinics. We hope you plan to attend so that you can help them continue with the important work they do! A representative from this charity will also be in attendance. In order to supply them with items they need we are asking for everyone who attends this event to either give a $5 donation per person or bring an item from the wish list. Their Wish List is posted in the Library and can also be found on the Web site by clicking on the icon located here (www.sunshinecountryclub.com/activities-details ). ALSO - Bring along some extra money so that you have a chance to win one of the many prizes that have been donated and that will be given away/raffled off. Remember, this is all for a very good cause. The dance is being held in Retzlaff Hall from 7 PM to 10 PM . Music is being provided by the Classics Band (of which Wade Prater is a member). This is a BYOB and snack type of event . AND - You may think the committee isn't aware that this is the normal Thursday Pavilion Happy Hour event day. BUT - You would be mistaken. We'd very much like folks to come out before the dance and join in the fun of the Pavilion Happy Hour. You might even be able to snatch a sizzling hot dog or two off the grill. NOTE - This is no signup for this event. Just come and get your groove on and enjoy your neighbors and friends. This will be one of the last events (and definitely the last Womens' Club event) before most of us head north for the summer. Thanks in advance for your support. Tiffany and Debbie (From 03-17-2019 E-News): Donation Results - Ronald McDonald House From Beth : I saw Deb had posted the below on the SunshineCCE Facebook page. I know lots of you SEPO e-mail suscribers don't use Facebook so I thought it would be nice to share this with others. From Deb Robins : A big thank you to all of our generous neighbors. We were able to raise over $1400.00 for Ronald McDonald House! For those of you that missed the party, but would still like to donate, please feel free to drop by my home (4129 N Minnesota). I will be dropping off their wish list items, gift cards and money on Tuesday. Again, thank you for being so generous. Back to Top

To help with this process, we’re forming a Nominating Committee. If you’d like to help identify potential candidates to represent our community—or if you’re interested in running yourself—please contact me or Gay Paxton. I’d love to have the committee, including a committee chair, formed soon. Beth Parrish has great information for the committee to use, so you’re not starting from scratch. As a reminder for those considering running: you are elected to the board, and then the board collectively decides each member’s area of responsibility. Each term lasts two years, with the option to run again after your term ends. (I’ve reached my term limit and cannot run again.) Thank you in advance for considering this opportunity to help our community. - Randy Davis, SEPO Board President Sent 2025-10-29: SEPO Covenants: Updated/Approved at Feb 10, 2025 Board Mtg (Reg) An update concerning Fences was discussed and approved to be made to the SEPO Covenants at the Feb 10, 2025 Board Mtg (Reg).

After 33 advisory letters went out last week, one of our board members reminded me that we also needed to call noncompliant property owners, per our Rules. I had initially decided not to make those calls in order to avoid taking time away from Valerie’s other duties. However, on Wednesday, October 29, we will review all properties that received advisory letters to see if they are now in compliance. If not, we’ll make follow-up phone calls and send a second seven-day notice. The first letter will be considered a friendly reminder. If compliance issues continue after the second notice, SEPO will handle the matter according to our community procedures. As your SEPO Board President, I take full responsibility for the weeds having gotten out of control in our community. Please know that I’m committed to resolving this — when you see me out on a walk, I’ll be on “weed patrol." If you notice any problem areas, please let Valerie know so we can address them promptly. Thank you all for your understanding and cooperation.

I believe I was very optimistic to say that it would be open on Monday the small amount of rain that we got today along with the water back draining into the hot tub in the pool has been detrimental to our timeframe as we need to have dry surface for the paint and product to adhere to still have tiling and tuckpointing to do around the pool and painting to do inside the pavilion the heater that was supplied to us for the hot tub was incorrect, and a commercial unit will be delivered either Wednesday or Thursday for the hot tub so timeframe wise moving forward hopefully planning on the pool to be open Tuesday or Wednesday. I will update when it is open the hot tub to be open Thursday Friday I will update sorry about the inconvenience but during the short timeframe, we can all enjoy everything being new and sparkly moving forward. 11:42 AM We have purchased a new drainage system to go around the outside of the pool and in between the pool and the hot tub.

Do not place any garbage - such as cardboard boxes, wood pieces, tiles, tires, nails, electronics, etc. - in the storage lot brush pile. This area is strictly designated for tree and bush brush only. 2. In all dog park areas, especially the small storage area dog park, we are noticing an increase in poop that is not being picked up. Specifically, it appears the owner of a medium-sized dog is not picking up after their pet in the storage area dog park. Please be respectful and keep our dog parks clean. Thank you, everyone, for your attention to this. - Lisa Seiser, SEPO Board Storage Area Sent 2025-10-04: MARKET: Homes For Sale or Rent (Weekly Update) - This past week, the following updates were made to the Homes for Sale / Rent on the Sunshine MARKET .

Well - Those activities don't just 'come out of the blue' and magically happen. Each year we hold a 'planning' session, led by the current WC Activities Director. At this meeting, attendees are given the opportunity to present idea(s) for activities for the upcoming season. Then we discuss pros & cons of these ideas and decide what goes into the calendar. This list of WC proposed events must be presented to the SEPO Board for their approval by the next Board of Directors meeting on Mar 9, 2020.

Remind the community of what a great place Sunshine is to live.

And they are being rewarded because they are so successful. So – as a reminder……. Lights on and Lock up! We shall relive the Sunshine Vehicle Decal Program (previously endorsed by our Board). For several reasons, none worthwhile, it was sort of dropped during COVID times. But the Bad Guys have proven value and the Harlingen Police Department agrees. Jean Burgoine and I will begin this soon. We have decals for the vehicles and for our Golf Carts. Congrats to Mary Grandy and Nancy Johns who recently completed the Citizens Police Academy. Thanks to Carol and Miles who resigned for health reasons and who faithfully patrolled Sunshine for many schedules. And thanks again to those who continue to patrol.

The Process for submitting this form and it being approved or denied is currently being reviewed and the updated Process Document will be published on the Sunshine website. An email will be sent to the community as soon as it is completed. For the time being, please continue to follow the current process for submitting your request forms. The updated form can be found HERE , along with the current process. Valerie will also have the updated forms available in the office. The primary change to the Request Form itself is that you will now need to provide the info below: Prep, Event & Cleanup times. This info won't be applicable to all events, but if it is applicable to yours, please list it. This will enable the SEPO Calendar to reflect more clearly the various phases of an event. And when residents view the SEPO calendar they will know the exact time the 'actual event' is taking place rather than the calendar showing the event is taking place all day long or even multiple days.
