Thanks for your support. Many residents lined up along the Parade Route showing their support, cheering us on, tossing candy and enjoying this seasonal festivity with family, friends and neighbors. A special Thanks goes to all the entrants as their time and talent plus endurance led to this successful event. Eleven challengers vied for the prestigious Women's Club award for "best decorated". Winners were 1st Place: Terry and Rich Debackere - 2nd Place: Heidi Dill and 3rd: Kathy Walker and granddaughter Jessica. Cathy Richmond with fearless Gizmo and Share Nelson with mischievous Maggie contributed to this pet-friendly part of the entourage and the McGruffmobile was proud to have his crime fighting four legged buddies as backup. Larry Lentz and his wife Linda, (son of Alice Montgomery), new resident, new volunteer for NW Patrols and recent Citizens Police Academy graduate drove his golf cart advertising our CERT Team. Lisa (new resident) was pressed into action 30 minutes before showtime as our Firefighters were battling a field fire until the last minute - possibly not able to show up to carry Santa. Several of Santa's helpers helped dismantle her beautiful Thunderbird convertible so Santa could be chauffeured. (The reindeer had a previous engagement). Sgt. Jaime Palafox volunteered to be our lead HPD Police Car supporting efforts of our Neighborhood Watch. Bob Saylor drove the NW Golf Cart (the McGruffmobile is named after the famous crime-fighting dog Mr. McGruff). So the phrase "It takes a Village,,,," puts it mildly when you think of how many Sunshine folks were involved and our neighbors - don't forget the Choraliers, the Christmas Tree Lighting, Hot Cocoa and cookies and Santa photo op. Guess you noticed the famous gate was wide open (like having our own International Peace talks.....). Hope you and your families have a wonderful Christmas and a healthy, happy New Year.

Hope everyone had enough to eat! We do have some amazing cooks here. For the few who could not join us because of illness, we hope you are feeling much better. To all my helpers in bringing this together, Thank You all!!! You all made hosting this meal a great success. There was one casserole brought to dinner wrapped in a pretty white towel with embellishments. If this is yours, please call me at 7082808910. Thank you again, for spending the holiday with your friends and neighbors here at Sunshine😊. Sincerely, Cathy Chajec (2019-11-20) Thanksgiving - Dear Friends and Neighbors: Thanksgiving is a week from tomorrow. We would love to have you join us for our annual Thanksgiving dinner on the 28th. I need to have a count on who would like to attend by Monday at noon. I will need time to shop and plan table set ups. All are welcome, including family and friends from outside. The cost is $6 and includes white and dark meat turkey, ham, dressing, gravy and coffee, tea and water. You supply a dish to serve 12 that will enhance our meal. BYOB of course. This year, the turkey breast will be fresh and not processed. Last year we had some people who did not like the processed turkey. Sorry, it was an oversight by the committee. We try our best to make the holiday special for everyone attending. Social hour begins at 1 and dinner will be ready at 2 p.m. Please sign up before Monday if you care to join us. Sign up sheet and envelopes are in the library for your payment and space for what dish you will bring. The committee and I wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving, no matter what you choose to do. Any questions, please contact Cathy Chajec at 708-280-8910. Thank you (2019-11-12) THANKSGIVING DINNER - Dear residents - Thanksgiving sign-up sheets will go up on the easel in the library this afternoon. There will be a box with envelopes near the easel for your virtual tickets. Tickets will be $6 per person and checks can be made out to SCCE Women's club. Please place your money in the envelope, fill out the information on the front and drop it in the slot on the box. Please also make sure you fill out the sheet on the easel with your information and what you plan to bring to share. Your names will be added to a master list which we will check off at the door. Doors will open at 1 pm with dinner being served at 2. The menu will consist of the committee making the turkeys, ham, dressing and gravy. Your contributions will round out our meal. We always have plenty of food. The sign-up sheet will come down by noon on November 25th so we can plan the shopping we need to do. Visiting family and friends are always welcome. Please make sure to follow the above instructions so we know how much food to prepare. This also gives us a count for table settings. We are so blessed to be able to share thanksgiving with all our friends and neighbors who do not have family here. Please don't be alone on this special holiday. Come join your neighbors for this celebration, make new friends, and eat till you are stuffed! Any questions, please contact Cathy Chajec at 708-280-8910. ​ (2019-11-09) Thanksgiving - We have a chairperson & Need Committee Volunteers - Dear Residents: I, Cathy Chajec, have volunteered to Chair the Thanksgiving Dinner on November 28, 2019. I am desperately looking for volunteers to help make this a wonderful holiday for all those who are staying in the Estates. With many helpers, it is an easy dinner to put on. There is a sign-up sheet in the library area where you can place your name and contact number if you choose to help out. I will be looking for turkey bakers, kitchen help preparing the dressing & gravy, turkey carvers, decorating help, and clean up. If I receive enough help with the preparations , I will post a sign up sheet in the library on November 14th. Cost will be $6 per person and a dish to pass. One person, a dish to feed 6; and couple, a dish for 12. Such items as mashed or sweet potatoes, green beans, corn carrots or other vegetables, cranberry relish, deviled eggs, or other relish tray, or pie/dessert. There will be a women's club box and envelopes to fill out and put your money in. These are considered virtual tickets and we will have a list made up so we know who and how many are coming. The menu will consist of Turkey, Ham, Dressing, and Gravy prepared by the committee. For any new residents, this is a good way to get your "feet wet" and see what it takes to be part of a crew to host a party. Everyone in the Estates is welcome, as well as those family and friends who might be visiting. It is a nice way to enjoy Thanksgiving as a community, without having to do all the cooking and cleaning involved in a home party. I hope you will consider helping in some way to make this event possible for all of our residents. Thank you for your consideration. Cathy Chajec, 708-280-8910 if you have any questions. (2019-11-07) Thanksgiving - Thanksgiving is right around the corner and we need co-chairs to head up this event. Grab a friend and sign up. This is a way that our residents can have Thanksgiving together as a Sunshine family when we are not celebrating with our individual families. If that is something that interests you, please contact me. Thank you! Vickie Jones Women's Club Activities Director 262-689-7068 ​ ************************* COMPLETE Veterans Day Tribute (11-11-2019) (2019-12-01) Thank You - Thanks to all who supported our salute to our Veterans on 11-11-11. Our committee members worked hard to put this patriotic program together to remember the fallen and honor those who have served, are serving and their families. Thanks to: Heidi sang the National Anthem for the U.S. and for Canada. Helen recited “In Flanders Field Where Poppys Bloom”. Jean gave us highlights on the 75th Anniversary of Iwo Jima and the Battle of the Bulge. Caroline Clements related her brother’s story on his Battlefield Commission during the Battle of the Bulge. Also, Caroline provided Veterans patches for us. Sally and Lenore performed the Flag Folding Ceremony and Cathy Chajec read the script. Ron presented the Folded Flag for the Missing Man Table while John read the significance of the items on the table. The American Flag and the Canadian Flag were posted. Our Branch Flags were proudly carried by our Veterans and/or their families. Marian, Karen and Share helped with all facets including Pot Luck. Lenore Combs (2019-11-10) CHANGE OF PLAN - Veterans Day Tribute - There is a slight change of plan for the Veterans Day Tribute being held in Retzlaff Hall tomorrow (11-11).

Also, if you have a picture as or of a veteran you would like to post on the Bulletin Board during the ceremony & dinner, please bring it with you before the ceremony and we'll get it up there. Please spread the word about these changes as there are quite a few folks who still haven't provided an e-mail to Beth Parrish (e-mail admin) in order to start receiving the Sunshine E-mails. Questions - call Lenore Combs (2019-11-07) Veteran's Day - This Monday, November 11th there will be a Veteran’s Day Program in Retzlaff Hall at 3 pm. Following the program there will be happy hour at 4:30 followed by a potluck at 5 pm. Everyone is welcome and there is a sign up sheet in the library so we can get a numbers count for setting up of tables and chairs. Come out and honor those who have given so much to make our country the best place to live! If you are interested in participating in the program on Monday, there will be a planning meeting on Friday, Nov 8th at 3 pm in the library. Lenore Combs will be organizing the program for Monday, but she needs volunteers to help with flags, readings ..... Hope to see you there! Vickie Jones Women's Club Activity Director (2019-11-07) WOMEN'S CLUB, Veteran's Day - We are hoping to have a Veterans Day program here at Sunshine on Monday 11 November 2019 with a Potluck to follow. There is a sign-up sheet for volunteers in the Library. This is usually a 2part deal – one Patriotic and the other a social Potluck. In the past John and I have assisted with the Flag Ceremony (Patriotic side) while Marian Young handles the Potluck side. We need Flag bearers and someone to talk on Veterans day. We can consider a Flag retirement ceremony outside or whatever you like. Also, included in the Opening will be a 2 minute of silence observed calling for all people to pause in honor of the service and sacrifice of our Veterans throughout the history of the Nation. We will also honor our Canadian Veterans. There will be sign-up sheet in the Lounge for a Flag Detail and for the Potluck. If anyone wants to say a few words about the day – step up. Honor our Veterans and their families. No support = no program but let’s hope for the best. Lenore Combs (2019-10-16) Veterans Day Tribute - Dear Friends, Please give this communication your best consideration. Sunshine is a great place to live because we have great people living here.

Janis McFee President MEETING NOTICE: Womens' Club 2020-2021 Activities Planning - I know you enjoy attending the Womens' Club (WC) activities each season - RIGHT !!! 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.

Coffee and refreshments too! I expect it should also be a great opportunity to meet our Harlingen and Combes Police Officers. Perhaps you could consider joining our NW program - many hands make light work. You will be fully oriented. I want to sincerely thank those of you who have been so faithful in taking Patrol as it keeps the Bad Guys on their feet. Thanks to all who made our Finger Lickin' Chicken a success and we will get a facelift for the McGruffmobile from the proceeds - namely tires and some new style lighting. Your suggestions are welcome. The January and February schedules are out - thanks to Linda & Dick Jones. May you all have a safe, wonderful new year.

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.

And she is right, there are lots of great pictures and information out there already. Hopefully, this will provide a spot for those of you who are wanting to get the word out about things outside of the Sunshine borders, that are non-SEPO Club/Group related. A couple of things; although I would be overjoyed if this FB page would mean I no longer needed to do SEPO Communications, that is not the case. All residents are not on Facebook and those who aren't won't see these postings. Non-Sunshine residents won't be able to join the new FB group and, therefore, they won't see the postings either. The original intent of the Sunshine website, above and beyond keeping residents informed, was to entice potential buyers to come check us out and possibly buy in Sunshine. If you want the entire current community to be kept up-to-date about what's going on here in Sunshine AND also entice potential buyers, you will need to continue utilizing the SEPO Communication processes - emails, website updates and (during the winter seasons) the newsletter as described HERE . Thanks again to Pam Adams. - Beth Parrish, SEPO Communications ​ Sent 2023-03-22: SEPO-Sanctioned Facebook Page is now up and running - At the request of SEPO Board President, Share Nelson, I have created a SEPO-sanctioned Facebook (FB) page for the Sunshine community.

It has been mentioned by more than one individual, so we are taking it seriously. I don’t know that much about the equipment and don’t want to pretend that I do!!! ​ A couple that do use the equipment along with some of their friends, have working knowledge of the equipment in the room and suggestions as to make it more usable. David and Robin Fleiner have graciously offered to put together some suggestions along with all of you as to how we could improve the “workout room”. It has even been suggested that we consult a physical therapist who could offer suggestions on equipment for seniors. Anyone that might be interested in sharing their opinion may contact David or Robin at 808-269-0948 or email dpfleiner10@yahoo.com . ​ Thank you David and Robin and we look forward to some kind of report or suggestions that can help us solve the problem of the “workout room” !!!! - Jim Kennedy, SEPO Board ​ Sent 2023-03-16: Taped Recording of Residents Mtg on Mar 16, 2023 - There was an issue with the Google Meet Video for the March 14th Residents’ Meeting.
