The changes approved are as follows: Elimination of the advance sign-up. Members will show up to play at either the 8:30 am launch or the 10:15 am launch. Fifteen (15) minutes before each tee time, a ball with the player’s name will be drawn for hole assignment. Golfers arriving less than 15 minutes before tee time will not be assigned to a team for that tee time. Early players who arrive late can return to play at 10:15 am. Second shift players who arrive late will need to wait until the following week to play. The fee structure has also changed. Gone is the requirement to pay $1.00 per week and a $20 membership fee. It has been replaced with a membership fee of $40.00 which covers weekly play, tournament costs and administrative costs (ink, paper, etc). Cash only will be accepted for payment. In order to have your golf ball (supplied by Matt Lyne) placed in the case for player eligibility each golfer must pay his $40.00 membership fee before playing. The first date for 2024-2025 season is November 5, 2024. In order to accommodate players who wish to play on November 5, Matt Lyne and Jerry Wetherbee will be available to collect membership fees from 7:30 am to 8:00 am, and from 9:30 am to 10:00 am. Alternatively, if you wish to pay early you may drop your $40.00 off with either Matt or Jerry prior to the November 5 start date.

Each tag on the tree has the name of a child, whether they are a girl or a boy and their age. You take a tag, put your name on the list and then purchase a gift of not more than $20. Do not wrap the gifts, just attach the tag to the gift. Then put the gift in the box under the table. I know this seems early in the year, but the deadline for this drive is November 23. Lenore will also be doing a separate drive at a later time for toys for the Police department and the Marines. Any questions can be directed to Rich Hulswit at (701) 566-1257.

Sent 2024-09-10: REMINDER (first): OCT 2024 Newsletter Articles Due by End of Day SEP 24, 2024 - Yes - It's that time of year already. The Sunshine Community 2024-2025 Winter Season (10-01-2024 thru 03-31-2024) is almost here. And I've volunteered to create your Sunshine Newsletter again this year. I made an executive decision last weekend. Since some of this winter season's activities start right off the bang near the beginning of October, I think sending the first reminder that the October 2024 Newsletter articles are due by end of day on the 24th of this month (September) is warranted. All articles need to be submitted to seponewsletter@gmail.com . And, if at all possible, please don't wait until you get the next reminder (later in September) to send me your articles. But, if you are waiting for as many details as possible to be finalized, I totally understand. This is a super way to get the word out about upcoming activities. Even if you don't have all of the information finalized by the Newsletter deadline, at least put 'what you do know so far' or even just a 'Save the Date' sentence in the Newsletter. Updated Newsletter Guidelines , dated Aug 1, 2024 , are posted on the website HERE . Prior Newsletters, which you can use as examples, can be found HERE . Let's fill this Newsletter with all kinds of good info for the Sunshine Community. Please contact me with any issues/questions. Beth Parrish, SEPO Newsletter Mgr Email: seponewsletter@gmail.com 314-960-6710 Sent 2024-08-04: NEWSLETTER Guidelines Updated - I noticed last week the Newsletter guidelines still listed the previous sepoenews email in error. I have updated the guidelines to fix a couple of grammatical errors and also to reflect sepoenews@sunshinecountryclub.com as the correct email for SEPO emails. You can find the updated document HERE . Please contact me with any questions. - Beth Parrish SEPO Newsletter Mgr Email: seponewsletter@gmail.com 314-960-6710 Back to Top

Thank you for your compliance. - SEPO Board Sent 2022-11-11: Toys for Tots - Toys For Tots Dear Friends, We briefly spoke about this at Woman’s Club the other day – so as a reminder: Our Harlingen Police dropped off a TOYS FOR TOTS box. It is in the Library. Toys For Tots – is the premier community action program sending a message of hope through the gift of a new toy to help bring the joy of Christmas to the less fortunate children. The mission is to collect new toys each year and distribute these toys as Christmas gifts to these children in our community. The Harlingen Police Department becomes familiar with these families, currently is collecting toys and hereby requests if anyone at Sunshine can please donate a gift ($10.00 or so). They (HPD) are waiving the “unwrapped” part since the Harlingen PD is most familiar with us thru NW & CERT and wrapping would be handy – just put GIRL/BOY and AGE __yrs. on the gift – visibly on the bottom. The Officers will pick up the boxes in a few weeks. THANK YOU Lenore J. Combs 956 245 1276 Resident and member of the Hgn.

We will be completed Friday afternoon. The course will be playable, but the greens will be rough and you will need to skip holes that are being actively worked. Throughout the next few months, on Thursday mornings (while it’s still dark), we will be spraying turf management solution. This is purchased at Home Depot over the counter. It helps with our grass and as a side by-product helps kill mosquitos where they breed. It does not affect ornamentals, roses, flowers, shrubs, trees, fruits, citrus, and vegetables. If you don’t drink it, it’s safe for humans and pets. It has a smell to remind you to be extra aware for you and your critters. Also as needed, there will be periodic spraying to kill clover and encroaching carpet grass in small sections of the course. Thank you for your patience.

In an effort to not have SEPO pay more for additional storage space, I have been reviewing the larger files that are linked to on the site. As I suspected our meeting videos took up LOTS of space. So that's where my cleanup began. I have downloaded all BOARD videos dated prior to Oct 1, 2022 to a personal storage device and removed them, along with any links to them, from the website. If you need/want to view anything I have removed, just send an email to sunshinecountryclubweb@gmail.com and I can get it/them to you. The Residents' meetings video are all still accessible on the website. I will be continuing with this effort the next couple of weeks. Wish me luck. :) - Beth Parrish SEPO Web site Admin E-Mail: sunshinecountryclubweb@gmail.com 314-960-6710 Back to Top

This denotes the change from the 1st week to the 2nd week of those two months where there are holidays on the 1st Monday. Note: my original suggestion only listed dates in May 2022.

Please share this information with anyone you know who might be interested and doesn't have an e-mail address on file in the SEPO Office. - Karren Amos Sent 2022-04-12: ROCK PAINTING at Sunshine! - TO all: I am trying to see if there's any interest in ROCK PAINTING at Sunshine! It would be a good hobby during very hot periods of time. You do not have to have any previous rock painting, or any painting talent at all. Have you noticed painted rocks by the mailbox entry? I left them for anyone that would want them. They are always gone the next time I go check our mail, and leave another rock. I've received feedback for a couple of the rocks I left there. One is on its' way to WI by a Sunshine resident. If you are interested, please let me know by contacting me per my information below. Depending on interest, or not, I will be providing further details on how this would work. Best days, times, etc. Those that are interested could go to FB Harlingen Rocks to get a glimpse of "painted rocks"! Anyone could enjoy this activity with no previous painting or art experience. Karren Amos ph 309-781-3479 email karrenaamos@gmail.com I look forward to hearing from you soon. Back to Top
