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.

In Memoriam Tributes 2021 Marian Seelye (September 8, 2021) It is with a sad heart to announce the passing of Marian Seelye, mother of JoAnne Anderson, and past resident of Sunshine. Marian had just come to stay with JoAnne and ultimately make a trip here. Marian laid down for a nap, JoAnne went to check later and she had gone peacefully with the Angels. Marian was special - she was the SCCE Choir Director several years ago for many years and assisted putting on many wonderful shows here, especially at the holidays. She also had her Choir group sing occasionally with the Sunday Night Sunshine Jammers and was a presence in many of Lassey's productions. And she made some great dishes for our Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. We will miss you but remember the "Good Old Days". God Bless American and God bless you and your family. Condolences can be sent to JoAnne Anderson (daughter) 22931 185th Street Detroit Lakes, MN 56501 Lenore J Combs 956 245 1276 2020 Steve Phillips (May 3, 2020) Sorry for short email earlier, not thinking real clear. If I may share some more... " My husband, Steve, passed away hours ago....Saturday night. He had another pulmonary embolism, he had one about five years ago. He has not felt good for weeks, but the Dr couldnt do a MRI because of covid. (Only emergencies, and his wasnt at the time) I dont know that they would have discovered it if so, but they did last time. I followed the ambulance to the hospital, and was with him about a hour before the Drs told me there was nothing they could do, and he was gone. He passed in the ambulance, but they recovered him, only to lose him in the hospital. The Drs said he had huge blood clot in both lungs and kidney failure. I'm still in shock. (I have asked family not to travel here, as it would be devastating to cause covid virus in anyone) Steve and I were very private people, but we dearly love our family and friends...in Texas and Oklahoma, also our dear friends we have made in Harlingen. Steve was incredibly proud of being the President of the men's golf here in Sunshine Country Club Estates and his three best buddies he golfed with daily. Also, his music making pal Wade, who would attest to what an amazingly gifted musician Steve was. Steve was the smartest person I've ever known and I will cherish our ten years together. We rock and rolled many nights away. His best friends in Dallas enjoyed his musical talents long before I met him, and were like family to him (and me). I dont imagine there will be a service here, with covid virus...but in about a month I will take his ashes/remains to Dallas, hopefully, and celebrate his life with friends and family there. I'm so sorry Steve's son, Jonathan has lost his father, along with Jonathan's wife and four children, and his other family members. Also, my family will miss him dearly. Ten years can make a lifetime of memories, and it did. Please be patient if I dont answer calls or the door too quickly, I am still trying to figure out what life is now, and that will take some time. We all have losses, recovering from them is an individual journey. My # is 214 549 3993 if any questions. Tomorrow seems far away right now. ♡ Irene Phillips Back to Top

Woodshop If you've never been inside the Woodshop, here's what the excitement is all about and what you're missing. SAWSTOP Table Saws General Info News & Events (Previous Years) Woodshop Events Woodshop Pictures (Various) General Info Location: The woodshop is in the Storage Lot area on the right-hand side as you enter the lot. Details: No fee (most HOAs, RV resorts charge a fee). Shop is open to members year-round. Shop is a 40' by 60' building. Woodworking building holds the latest and some of the best woodworking tools around. The lathes are used often. Members can work with power equipment after attending a Safety and Information class. Officers (for 2025, effective starting Jan 2025): President - Nancy Lyne Vice President - Hal Resides Treasurer - Richard Hulswit Secretary - Cathy Chajec Contacts: Please contact Nancy Lyne with any questions. Monitors: They are all volunteers. There must always be a monitor in the shop for safety reasons. Only monitors have keys to the shop. During winter months, monitors sign up on our calendar to monitor woodshop activities. The SEPO Office has a copy of this calendar. There is usually a monitor who goes to work on projects. As long as a monitor has the shop open, woodworkers who have had the "safety training" are welcome to come in and work OR check out equipment (small items like hand tools, ladders etc.) for a minimum of three days. In fairness to the Monitors, if there is little activity, they may close early, so if you wait until five (5) minutes before closing time, you may be disappointed. If you have a crisis need, you can contact any Monitor to find a time other than the above. Hours: Normal (Winter Seasons) - Monday thru Friday - Woodshop is open for use (as long as a 'monitor' is available) from 9:00 am to noon AND 1 to 4 pm. Saturday and Sunday - It is 'hit or miss'. But a monitor is usually there working on projects. Normal (Summer Seasons) - Open only when a monitor is there. It is kind of a catch 22. If anyone needs in the shop they can always call a monitor. Orientation: Woodshop orientation sessions for new residents/renters or anyone who would like a refresher course are generally held during the Winter seasons by John Chajec (708-280-8940). He notifies the community via SEPO email when these classes are scheduled. Meetings: Woodworker Meetings are held the 2nd Monday of every month beginning October through March. They start at 1 PM and last about one hour or less. Cleanup: Woodshop cleanup is the first Tuesday of every month at 7:30 AM and takes about an hour. Volunteers are most welcome. The Woodworkers sponsor a Spaghetti Dinner every winter for the residents. All proceeds are utilized for equipment, supplies etc. in the Woodshop. ******************** Back to Top Previous Woodshop Info Winter Season: 2025-2026 Sent 2025-12-15: Wood Shop Orientation Class Wednesday December 17th 5 pm - UPCOMING WoodShop Orientation Class Wednesday Dec 17th 5 pm in the wood shop.

SAWSTOP Table Saws Back to Top Woodshop’s SAWSTOP Table Saws Sent 2020-03-10: Wood Shop: SAWSTOP Pics & Info In order to promote our Community Amenities on the Web site, I had asked Suzie Sawyer if she had any pictures of the SAWSOP Table Saws that were puchased for the Wood Shop this season. Sure enough, in these pictures you can see our own Vic Hillman hard at work. The woodworkers can work much more safely now. Suzie told me they shut down in a nano-second when flesh contacts the blade! We have 2 of them. Beth Parrish SEPO Web site Admin (FROM Newsletter: 03-2020) Woodworkers' Club Report - The Woodshop now has two SAWSTOPs (see pictures below) up and functioning; and both saws are paid for!! Our thanks to the SEPO residents/Woodshop Members who supported the fundraising effort to pay for the second saw after the Woodworker’s treasury paid for the first saw. Our thanks to Pat Harvey for leading the SAWSTOP effort and his committee members who put in hundreds of hours transitioning from the older table saws to the SAWSTOPs. Jack Berning, Richard McCorkle, Kelly Kennedy, Steve Valmossoi, Vic Hillman, and Vern Luellen are thanked for helping with the installation of the new saws. Members are finding the new saws easy to use and, of course, safer. Feel free to visit the Woodshop because we’d like to show off the new equipment. Suzie Sawyer, President Back to Top

Thanks Sherri Gardner / Beth Parrish Sent 06-01-2019: Do you have a house in Sunshine for Rent - I've received inquiries this summer from people in various parts of the US wanting to know if there were any houses for rent in Sunshine. So I've decided it might be a good idea to list available rentals on our Web site - just as long as those wanting to rent their home keep me informed when they do get rented and also when they open up for rental again . This will also help Valerie to keep the 'Renters Directory', which is posted on the Web site under the Residents/Password Required tab, up-to-date. The current 'Renters Directory' on the Web site is OUT OF DATE. If you currently have changes to this information, please notify both Valerie and myself. So if anyone wants me to post their available Rentals on the Web site please send me the information you would like a potential renter to see i.e., your contact info, months house is available, price, pictures of your house etc. That information will be located here (www.sunshinecountryclub.com/for-rent ). You will notice we already have one available rental listed there. Questions? Contact Beth Parrish.

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

He died peacefully yesterday Thursday 3 March at home. Stan was an avid golfer and delivered Sunshine news on the net to us. Stan and Sylvia moved to San Antonio several months ago to be with family. 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.

The topic is Birds of North America and their habitat. There is no charge for the program, but we would like for you to sign up in the library, on the easel, if you are coming. That way we will know how many to prepare for. Cookies, ice tea & coffee will be served. Monday, March 7th, 7:00 PM in Retzlaff Hall. Ladonna Harvey Sent 2022-03-03: MARKET: New Household/Outdoor Items - Please go to the Sunshine MARKET: Homes For Sale AND Household to see items either 'added' or 'updated today (03-03-22). And as a Gentle Reminder - Once your items have sold, please inform me so I can remove from the Web site. Thx.
