That original net has since been replaced by SEPO. ​ A few of us went to the courts a couple of weeks ago and hoisted that screen up. This is not an easy job as you can see from the pictures on the Web site HERE . But then we had a picnic in the pavilion. So the day wasn't all work. And although those of you who used to watch us play from the outside of the fence can't do that anymore, we are able to actually play now on those windy days. ​ If you are so inclined, come join us and play tennis and/or pickleball. Tennis starts at 8 am on Mon, Wed & Fri. Pickleball starts at 8:30 am on Tue & Thu. Just show up to play. We have a great time and get lots of 'fun' exercise. - Lisha & Steve Johnson ​ Sent 2022-12-30: Better LATE than NEVER: WC Caroling Pics - I knew this was going to take some time - and it surely did this evening.

Any one household may not reserve the ‘same’ Common Facilities, i.e., Retzlaff Hall or the Pavilion, for private parties, on consecutive days, consecutive weekdays, or consecutive weekends during any one month. This restriction mitigates the potential for a few persons to reserve our Common Facilities for extended periods. c. The Pool and Hot Tub are Common Facilities which can only be reserved for Board approved SEPO events. Streets shall be open to the public during the hours the front gate is open. Residents of ENCORE SUNSHINE RV PARK located in Harlingen, TX (hereinafter called ENCORE) shall be allowed to walk or bike on SCCE streets at all times. Bicycles and golf carts must use lights at night. Rollerblading, roller skating or skateboarding is NOT allowed. ENCORE residents wearing their badges may use the golf course during open hours by filling out a green fee tag, displaying it on their bag and depositing the correct green fees in the mailbox used for collection located at Number One tee. All outdated green fee tags must be removed from their golf bag. Use of the golf course by ENCORE residents will be reviewed at least annually by the Board of Directors and will be restricted or eliminated if the Board finds the course is overcrowded or such restriction is needed for any other reason. Organizers of approved golf tournaments shall be allowed to invite persons other than owners to enter and play golf in tournaments subject to paying the appropriate green fees. In the event an Owner is the single owner/occupant of a home, then he or she is allowed to invite one guest to accompany him or her in the use of the common facilities at any time. ON-STREET PARKING A. Streets defined: Any and all streets, right-of-way, or thoroughfares platted as part of SCCE. ​ B. Vehicle defined: Any motorized or non-motorized vehicle or conveyance designed to move on wheels, i.e., cars, trucks, boat trailers, golf carts, motor homes, motorcycles, etc. Pursuant to Article VI, Sec. 6.4 of the Covenants, there is to be no overnight (from midnight to 6 AM) parking of vehicles on the streets. When parking a vehicle overnight alongside a street, it must be parked in a way that the tires are not resting on the asphalt/blacktop of the street. However, the tires may rest upon the gutter along the street. An exception to this overnight parking rule is that RVs and Cargo Trailers may be parked on the street for up to three days for the purpose of loading or unloading. An extension may be granted for unusual circumstances or in the case of overnight guests as to parking on the street. Apply in the office for permission. No vehicle may be used at any time for the purpose of residence, temporary residence, or additional living space or used as any type of living quarters when parked on any street or driveway or the storage area in SCCE. Failure to comply with any or all of the above will result in the vehicle being tagged, showing date, time and violation. The owner will then be responsible for a $20.00 per day fee for each violation. This fee will be due by the 10th day of the month following the violation. All violation fees not paid within 30 days of due date will be assessed an 18% per annum penalty and possibly result in SEPO filing a lien against the owner’s property. SEPO is authorized to have a commercial towing service remove any vehicle of a non-resident in violation of these regulations 24 hours after posting notice of noncompliance on said vehicle. All lot owners or residents desiring to appeal any assessment for an on-street parking violation shall do so in writing to the SEPO Board for consideration at the next Board meeting. No one under the age of 16 years shall be allowed to operate a golf cart or motorized vehicle of any type, unless accompanied by a resident, anywhere on SCCE property. GUESTS ​ An incidental guest is defined as not being a member of your immediate family and who resides within a 50 mile radius. Guests who wish to play golf must be accompanied by the host resident and no more than three (3) guests may play with the resident. Such incidental guest is limited to no more than two occasions per year of use of the common facilities. Private party guests in Retzlaff Hall or the Lounge, Sunburst and the Pavilion are excluded from this rule. Greens fees are set forth under GOLF. A temporary guest is defined as not being a member of your immediate family and who resides outside of a 50 mile radius. Such temporary guest includes those staying with the owner in his home or elsewhere while visiting. If the guest is staying outside the resident’s home, the resident must accompany the guest while playing. This temporary guest is limited to use of the common facilities for no more than thirty consecutive days per year. Greens fees are set forth under GOLF. A badge is no longer required for in-house overnight guests who are entitled to use all facilities in the common area. All children under age 16 years must be accompanied by an adult. If your in-house guest wishes to play golf you must obtain a yellow tag which must be displayed on the golf bag. The tag must be returned to the SEPO office. If an owner wishes to pay for their house golf guest they may do so by keeping track of the number of times their guest plays and pay the proper amount after the guest leaves. RENTERS Residents who own a home at Sunshine Estates and rent out their house must instruct the renters to come to the office and fill out the appropriate renter’s forms. Forms will include verification of over 55 years of age and the Renter’s Emergency information form. They must also sign a waiver form that they have received the Bylaws, Covenants and Policies & Procedures and have read them and agree to abide by same. Homeowners are responsible for providing copies of the Bylaws, Covenants and Policies & Procedures to their renters. There are available on our Web site here ( https://www.sunshinecountryclub.com/seporules ). ​ SUNSHINE CLUBS/GROUPS GUIDELINES Sunshine Estates Property Owners, Inc. is a non-profit corporation. As such, all clubs, groups, or other organizations existing and approved by SEPO must also be strictly non-profit. To request the formation of a new Club/Group, the resident(s) should complete a SEPO Suggestion/Complaint/Idea form available in the SEPO Office or on the Sunshine Web site ( https://www.sunshinecountryclub.com/suggestion-complaint-idea ). To establish guidelines for groups wishing to form a Sunshine Club, the following is required: Membership must be open to only residents/renters. Invitation to non-residents/non-renters to participate in the Club must be approved by SEPO. If approved, residents/renters always have priority pertaining to club activities. This approval request must be made by completing a SEPO Suggestion/Complaint/Idea form available in the SEPO Office or on the Sunshine Web site ( https://www.sunshinecountryclub.com/suggestion-complaint-idea ). Immediate family of Residents/Renters are always welcome. Invitations to non-residents/non-renters must be made by a resident/renter to an individual. There can be no ‘blanket’ invitations from Club members, i.e., hanging a poster at an RV park to join the club or putting an invitation in a newspaper. Any non-resident/non-renters, other than immediate family, must be 55+. Guest speakers are not required to be approved by SEPO. Any money collected from resident/renter club members can only be used to cover the cost of equipment and supplies used during club activities. No profit can be made by anyone. Scheduling of “fundraising” events that will take place within Sunshine Country Club Estates for the purchase of the club’s equipment or supplies must be approved in advance by SEPO. The request process is defined on the Sunshine Web site ( https://www.sunshinecountryclub.com/activity-mtg-request ). The request form is available there and in the SEPO Office. Any bank accounts established for the club cannot be in the name of Sunshine Estates Property Owners, Inc. and must be in non-interest-bearing accounts. PETS Pets are allowed as long as they do not become a nuisance. All pets must be kept on leash when not on the owner’s property. At no time can pets be allowed to enter other people’s property without their permission. Owners are responsible for cleanup or damage caused by their pets. Never place cleanup (poop) bags into another resident’s garbage can without permission. Pets are never allowed on the golf course, in any SEPO buildings or in the Pool/Pavilion area. Pets that are fostered (given temporary shelter and not owned) shall be counted as part of the two pets allowed at any one time (Section 6.10 of the Covenants). Owners in violation of any of these provisions may be subject to fine or penalty. ​ PROPERTY AND YARD MAINTENANCE It is the responsibility of all property owners to see that their property and yard are maintained, mowed, and trimmed AT ALL TIMES. If it becomes necessary for SEPO to care for an owner’s property at any time, a service fee of $50.00 for mowing and $75.00 for weed removal of non-grass yards will be made each time such services are performed. There will be a service fee of $75.00 per incident to pick up fruit that has fallen from your fruit tree onto any Owner’s property or the street. Initial notification to owner must be attempted via phone call from the SEPO office. Whether communication is completed or not, a written notice will follow on that same date referencing the aforesaid phone call or attempt thereof and the issue that needs to be addressed. This written notice may be handed to the owner of the premises or sent via e-mail or regular mail, or by posting the notice on or near the front door of the resident’s home at the property location. Owners will be given seven (7) days from the date of said phone call and notice to bring the premises into compliance before the SEPO services are scheduled. All owners must furnish SEPO office personnel with up-to-date information as to who is responsible for their property during the owner’s absence. It is a violation of SEPO rules to throw vegetation or refuse into the streets. All owners desiring to extend their ground care to walkways, utilizing any type of trim enhancement, must have permission from the SEPO Board. The property owners will be asked to sign a release stating if it becomes necessary to use this area with heavy equipment and the two feet of property they are maintaining becomes damaged, they are aware this is SEPO property and there will be no recourse for any damage that may have occurred. No placement of any type of enhancement on the golf course area (flagpole, bird house, tree, shrub, flower, etc.) is allowed without approval of the SEPO Board. In order to control water pressure for the golf course, owners are prohibited from watering their own yards using Resaca water between the hours of 7 p.m. and 7 a.m. Noncompliance may result in the capping off of the Resaca water to their property. ARCHITECTURAL CONTROL Owners wishing to make additions or any outside improvements/changes to their property must complete a proposal form obtained at the SEPO office to receive permission from the Architectural Control Committee (ACC) and may not commence work until the necessary ACC approval has been obtained. Owners who proceed without ACC approval are subject to imposition of the “Rules and Regulations Pertaining to Non-compliance to Covenants Fee Schedule” and legal intervention as identified in these SEPO Rules, (adopted August 31, 2021). See document at this link: (https://www.sunshinecountryclub.com/sepo-rulesregs-fees ) In the event of noncompliance with the foregoing paragraphs the Architectural Control Committee shall report such conduct to the SEPO Board who will in turn issue a STOP WORK ORDER until approval is obtained from the ACC. In the event work continues, then the SEPO Board may impose FEEs in the amounts defined in the Non-compliance to Covenants Fee Schedule (linked to above). If the fees are not collected, a lien may be placed upon the owner’s property. You may not expand upon or change that work which has been approved without submitting a new plan. As to fences, Exhibit B of the Covenants states in paragraph 16, “no fence, wall or hedge shall be built or maintained nearer than ten (10) feet to the front curb line of any lot, or side curb line on corner lots. An exception shall be retaining walls of not over twelve inches above the ground.” Paragraph l7 states, “No fence, wall or hedge or shrub planting which obstructs sight lines shall be placed or permitted on corner lots.” Paragraph 18 states, “All fences shall be approved prior to construction.” Paragraph 19 states, in part, “No lot owner shall impair any easement. No fences, walls or structural improvements shall be built or constructed on any easement.” For clarification, our lots have a ten foot utility easement from the lot line across the front and a five foot utility easement from the lot line across the back. That in itself declares no fences will be allowed within the five foot rear lot easement adjacent to the golf course. Owners are allowed to erect a barrier for golf ball protection. They must be approved by the ACC. Protective measures for golf balls can include a type of netting or other material but cannot be intrusive on neighbors. All Fences and Barriers must be approved by The ACC prior to installation. 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. ​ GOLF COURSE The golf course may NOT be reserved for private parties. It may only be reserved for SEPO events, with SEPO Board approval. Sunshine Country Club Estates’ guests (not qualifying as immediate family members of owners) as well as ENCORE residents are required to pay green fees before starting play. ENCORE residents must wear their RV name badges and display the green fee tag on their golf bag. All golfers are required to have their own clubs and bag or other appropriate carrier. Foursomes are suggested when the golf course is busy except during league play. More than five should never play at one time. Play is required to start at the number one tee at all times from October 1st through April 30th. However, persons may join players already in progress as long as it is agreeable to those players and does not make more than a foursome. Use of a tee is required at all times when teeing off. Practice is not allowed on any part of the golf course except on the putting green by number one tee box. Keep riding carts on cart paths when teeing off and 20 feet from greens when possible and practical. Replace divots on tee boxes and fairways. Repair ball marks on greens. Do not trespass upon owner’s property at any time except to retrieve straying golf balls. Never hit the ball out of an owner’s yard. Do not rake for balls during active play. Everyone is required to wear appropriate clothing including shirts at all times on the golf course. No bicycles or motor scooters are allowed on the golf course. Anyone wishing to use a riding golf cart to play golf may do so by paying an annual Golf Course Improvement fee. A sticker must be purchased each year and placed in plain view on the windshield of the cart. All Golf Course Improvement Fees collected shall be used for the construction/continued maintenance and repair of: future/existing concrete golf cart pathways/trails, water features on the golf course, including, but not limited to, masonry walls of the golf course ponds and aeration pumps/fountains, water irrigation and pond lighting improvements. All of these improvements shall be located within the limits of the golf course. When the golf course is closed because of excessive rain accumulation or for maintenance procedures, signs will be posted in front of the Office and at the number one tee box. At times when the course does remain open there may be posted restrictions on the use of riding golf carts even though walkers are permitted. If in question, you should check the office area before proceeding to the first hole to play, in the event you are not starting on the number one tee in league play. The golf green fee for a temporary guest as defined under GUESTS is $2.00 to play in scramble for nine holes, which includes tournaments and guest days. The green fee for a temporary guest to play nine holes is $5.00. These fees are paid at the office. The golf green fee for an incidental guest as defined under GUESTS is $10.00 for nine holes and $15.00 for eighteen holes. This same fee will apply to residents of ENCORE. You may only enter or exit the golf course by means of a cart path, never from your backyard or a neighbor’s back yard. There are cart paths leading from each street to enter and exit the course. The course is for playing golf. It is not a shortcut from one street to another. The SEPO golf course is restricted during Men’s and Women’s Golf League play as follows: During the months from April 1 thru September 30 the SEPO golf course is restricted for: Tuesday Men’s League play from 8:30 to 10 AM. Wednesday Women’s League play from 8:30 to 10 AM. During the months from October 1 through March 31 the SEPO golf course is restricted for: Tuesday Men’s League play from 8 AM to Noon. Wednesday Women’s League play from 9 AM to Noon. If you are not participating in the Men’s or Women’s scheduled Golf League play, you must wait until the entire League play is completed before gathering to play. Golfers who wish to play ‘after League play has completed’ are requested not to stage at Hole #1, as this has shown to prevent League players from using the cart paths to advance on the course. Non-League golfers should gather on Michigan Avenue, away from the cart path, in anticipation of League play completion, in order to reduce congestion on Hole #1 tee box “Feeding ducks on the golf course is prohibited.” Per the TX Parks & Wildlife, it is an offense to feed or offer any wildlife or exotic wildlife unsecured in a manner that makes food available to wildlife or exotic wildlife unless specifically authorized. The feeding of birds can be permitted using feeders that contain food in a specific area. TENNIS COURT, PICKLEBALL AND SHUFFLEBOARD Treatment of courts: Proper footwear is to be worn at all times. Shoes with abrasive soles of any kind and shoes with black soles should not be worn on the courts. Shufflers should walk on the concrete area between the courts when changing ends. Do not use the Courts as a short cut. The green surface is a very specialized cover and may be damaged just by walking. Any activity other than tennis and pickleball on the tennis court and shuffling on the shuffleboard lanes is forbidden. These areas may be reserved for private parties using the same method as the Lounge and Retzlaff Hall, but all rules must be observed as set forth above. ​ POOL AND HOT TUM AREA Shower before using pools to remove any lotions. Soap is not allowed in the showers. Diving into the pool is not allowed. Running in the pool area is not allowed. If your guests are young children, keep them under control and have an adult supervising them. Throwing any object into the pool or pool area is not allowed. No bicycles or skates are allowed in the pool area. Anyone displaying rowdy behavior may be asked to leave by any resident owner. These areas may NOT be reserved for private parties. They may only be reserved for SEPO events, with SEPO Board approval. RULES AND PROCEDURES POSTED ON THE LARGE SIGN IN THE POOL AREA ARE ENFORCED AT ALL TIMES. LOUNGE AND RETZLAFF HALL Reservations for use of either space will be made through the SEPO office. No fee will be charged for private parties if no supplies are used. However, you are responsible for turning off lights, fans, air conditioning and P/A systems, so make arrangements for getting help. Only 206 seated people are allowed in Retzlaff Hall at one time in compliance with the Harlingen Fire Code. A limited number of older brown tables are available for loan. No white tables may be borrowed. The white chairs may be borrowed at a cost of $1.00 each and must be signed out from the office in advance and returned in 48 hours. Ask at the office for information. Tables will be delivered and picked up by SEPO employees. There is a $2.00 charge per table, a two table limit and a two day table use. The following three areas are all located within the building adjacent to the postal area. POOL ROOM. Guests under age 16 years must be accompanied by a resident adult when using the Pool Room. Care and consideration of others should be taken when utilizing the Pool Room and equipment. EXERCISE ROOM. Guests under age 16 years must be accompanied by a resident adult when using the Exercise Room. The equipment located in this area must be utilized in the manner for which it was intended. Residents are responsible for themselves and should know their limits to avoid injuries. CARD AND ACTIVITIES ROOM. Scheduled card games and other activities occur in this room. Other than weekly scheduled activities, the room may be reserved by contacting the SEPO office. PAVILION This area is designed to provide a covered space extending beyond the pool for entertaining and lounging and will include storage. It may be reserved for private parties using the same method as the Lounge and Retzlaff Hall. ​ MULTI-PURPOSE ROOM This room is located between the Pavilion and the Fitness Room and can be used for multiple purposes including to store mail packages too big to fit in your mailbox. This room is locked at all times with a keypad lock. If you would like to reserve this room you need to follow the normal Activity Request process. ​ STORAGE AREA The storage area is a gated area with the gate operated by the same opener that will open the front entrance gate. Deposit all brush, clippings, weeds, etc. on the northeast side of the storage area in either the spot marked City of Harlingen or City of Combes, depending on where you live. These cities will pick up this debris periodically. They will not pick up any other items such as appliances and pieces of building material. Do not pull brush across the streets or across the marked areas for RV parking. All RVs, trailers and storage shed spaces must be assigned from the office. Prices vary according to the lot size. All lots are rented on an annual basis and the rent on your designated lot including those with storage buildings must be paid in full by January 20th each year. Inquire in the office regarding space availability and prices. In the event a certain section of the Storage Area becomes filled and there are residents that desire to rent a space in that area, then a list will commence for the opportunity to rent the first available space. Any resident desiring to rent a space in an area that is currently filled must go to the SEPO office and register. In the event a space becomes available the first person whose name is on that list will be notified and given the opportunity to rent the space. The SEPO office must receive rental for the space within fifteen (15) days of notification. If he declines or fails to pay rent when due, the SEPO office will call upon the next name on the list. Some of the materials and properties stored within the SEPO Storage Lot shed area, which is located north of W Iowa, Ave are sand for our golf course bunkers, rocks, lumber used to create forms for our golf cart pathways and other stone and brick materials. These items are all SEPO property used by the Board Director in charge of the golf course to operate and maintain our Par 3 nine-hole golf course. These materials located here are not available for use by SEPO residents at their home. They are owned by SEPO and should not be removed.

Negotiations for any structure existing on a lot that is changing renters must be between the previous renter and the new renter. In the event a previous renter vacates a lot and abandons the structure, it will become the responsibility of the new renter to demolish or maintain and insure the structure. WOODWORKER'S SHOP All residents of SCCE are entitled to the use of the Woodworkers’ Shop and membership in the Woodworkers’ Club. Residents may have use of the shop only when a qualified monitor is present. Prior to the use of the Woodworkers’ Shop a resident must read and accept by signing the Rules and Regulations of the Woodworkers’ Shop.

GAZEBO All residents are entitled to use the gazebo located on Texas Avenue when it has not been reserved using the same method as the Lounge and Retzlaff Hall. Contact the SEPO office for scheduled activities and availability. SMOKING REGULATIONS All of the buildings of the Common Area are declared to be smoke free as well as the area contained within the walls, gates and fences surrounding the Pool and Pavilion. Smoking will be allowed on the Golf Course but no cigarette butts may be discarded on the grounds. Consideration should be given to nonsmokers if riding in the same golf cart. Extinguished cigarette butts may be placed in the cup holders used for broken tees. ​ POLICY ON NEPOTISM SEPO shall not employ, either part of full time, a close relative of an existing employee or member of the board of directors. Close relative includes spouse, sibling, child, parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle or cousin. ​ DONATIONS TO SEPO When an individual, committee or organization purchases “something” for SEPO, then ownership becomes SEPO’s unless explicitly noted otherwise. Once accepted by SEPO (either explicitly or implicitly), future maintenance, usage, replacement or removal will be SEPO’s responsibility and expense. If SEPO has ownership, the board will have sole discretion for its usage and whether replacement or removal is in SEPO interest at that time. There is no guarantee of replacement. If ownership remains with the donor, then future maintenance, usage, replacement and removal will be the owner’s responsibility and expense, however, SEPO may request its removal at any time for any reason or no reason. ​ FISCAL POLICIES All checks should be signed by the Treasurer unless the Treasurer is unavailable. If that occurs, the next available persons, in the following sequential order shall be sought out to sign requested check(s): President, 1st VP, then 2nd VP. Invoice related payments will normally be issued only once a week on Fridays. In the case of a COD or an emergency, accommodations will be made to issue payment. Ideally this needs to be coordinated with the Treasurer. Invoices and timecards must be approved by a Board Member. Credit card charges must have a receipt. Board Members should not, under normal circumstances, use their personal funds and later seek to be reimbursed by SEPO. Only in emergencies should this occur. All backup documentation should be reviewed by the check signer prior to signing checks. DISPOSAL OF EXCESS OR RETIRED SEPO EQUIPMENT OR PROPERTY When SEPO Equipment or Property is no longer required by SEPO, in order to give everyone a fair chance to procure it, if they wish, we will use the process defined as follows: The community will be informed via Community E-mail and physical posting that an item is available for inspection at a ‘specified location’ until a ‘specified Day, Date and Time’. Anyone can send an e-mail (or handwritten bid with a legible signature) to a ‘designated person’ with the amount they are offering by a ‘specified Day, Date and Time’. The ‘designated person’ receiving the bids is not eligible to submit a bid. On a ‘specified Day, Date and Time’ the ‘designated person’ will look at the offers and announce the name of the purchaser to the community via e-mail and physical posting. Concerning any item that fails to receive a bid, the Board will vote on how to dispose of it. Back to Top

If the answer to a question is unknown at meeting time, the topic will be researched and the answer provided to the questioner. There will be no debate with any SEPO Board member. There will be no ‘shout outs’ from residents who haven’t requested to speak. Vulgarity will not be allowed. The speaker shall not make any derogatory comments about any person(s). The speaker will simply state factually what his/her comments / concerns / questions are.

It seems that the enthusiasm for this project has slowed. I want to remind all of our residents that this is an ongoing project and costs you nothing. I was doing some work on this project and noticed that it appears that someone has tried to remove a plaque from the wall. Once the plaques are in place they are permanent and can only be removed by destroying both the plaque and the wall. All new residents and existing residents can be recognized for their service to their country and community. If you or your spouse served in the military or served as police officers, fire fighters and first responders and want to be honored for this service all you have to do is fill out an application form. These forms are available in the office. Check with Valerie to get one, or see me, my information is below. Fill out the form and include a picture you what displayed and return it to the office or me. The picture you provide for use will be copied and returned. Please be sure to include your address here in the estates so that I can return your picture. If you want a current picture I can be available to take one if you contact me (the information is below). All name plates and pictures that are placed on the wall and in the book should remain there indefinitely. Thank you for your donations towards this project. I hope to hear from you in the near future. Thank You For Your Service. - Jim Tennant, 4161 N Missouri 616-866-9960 Email: jimbuck1050@yahoo.com ​ Sent 2023-02-14: UPDATED PROCESS & FORM: SEPO Suggestion/Complaint/Idea - During the Feb 7, 2023 Board Meeting the Board approved to update the Process Document and Form being used to submit "SEPO Suggestions/Complaints/Ideas".

Part of Yelper system is in our gate and the other part is in their Units. When the yelp has been recognized for three (3) seconds a trigger is sent to open the gate. This is an effective way for emergency service to respond - not needing a code or a key. A call has been made to have it repaired. However, it will probably be Monday before that occurs.

We are not selling tickets at the door. Cost is $10 per person for shrimp, sausage, corn, potatoes, bread and dessert! We will also provide iced tea and coffee. Bring whatever else you want to drink. Doors open at 4:30! See you there! - Cathy Richmond 303-990-3730 ​ 2022-10 Updates - Virtual signups for the shrimp boil are now available in the library. There will be boiled shrimp, sausage, corn on the cob, potatoes, bread, dessert, iced tea, coffee and condiments. Nothing is cooked with the shrimp for those who are allergic to shellfish. The food is kept hot in roasters, and you will be served. I need a couple more volunteers to work in the kitchen and serving line as well as a couple of strong guys to lift the cooked food out of the pots. Doors open at 4:30. ​ Hey guys! 68 tickets sold in one day for the shrimp boil! Envelopes are in the library to sign up. ​ Several people have asked why there is not a signup sheet for the shrimp boil. My explanation comes from experience with using both the signup sheet and the virtual ticket box. Sometimes people sign up and forget to put their money in the box. The chair of the event then has to check with the resident and explain they didn’t put money in the box. Other times people sign up twice so the chair has to reconcile names with money. It is far easier to simply take names from the envelopes in the box. Not very often do we have a limit on tickets. Since we have a limit of 160 tickets, I check the box frequently and will keep the community updated on how many tickets have been sold at least daily. All that being said see you at the shrimp boil on the 22nd! ​ Sent 2022-10-02: WC Shrimp Boil: Ticket Sale Date - Shrimp boil tickets will go on sale October 12th by virtual tickets in the library.

It will have envelopes on it that are stamped so you can fill in your name and submit either cash or a check made out to SCCE Womens Club. A list will be compiled with names of paid residents and as you enter your name will be checked off at the door. There is a limit of 160 tickets and no tickets will be sold at the door.

This is a 27-hole, 3-day golf scramble, with an awards dinner on Saturday evening. We have had more than 180 people participate in this event in the past. It is a fun tournament for 55+ aged persons. Each year we encourage Sunshine Country Club residents to participate in any way they are most comfortable. We know that everyone is not a golfer, but this event is a perfect way to get involved in our community and “Let the Sunshine In!” Although the GNDGT Committee will purchase many gifts for the Award Dinner, in the past, we asked residents to consider preparing a gift basket and donating it for the drawing/awards dinner. Gift baskets have been a great success as a personal prize during the awards dinner. Many residents donated these baskets, which the recipients greatly appreciated during the drawing. This year we would also like to open the possibility of Donations. If you would like to participate with a donation, here are some ideas: Gift baskets valued at $25- $50, filled with “new items,” (In past years, many of the baskets were filled with items of their favorite sports team or “New” items purchased from any local retailer or even your hometown). You might consider donating a Gift Card. You can donate any amount from local retailers, including restaurants. Direct monetary donations are also welcome; don’t hesitate to contact the committee chair to make this happen. Gift baskets and other donations must be received before the March 2nd event date.

Many residents had questions, suggestions, opinions etc. during the Information meeting. Several residents stated the ‘rumors’ they were hearing around the community. We hope residents left the meeting feeling prepared to vote on the proposed ballots. This meeting was not on Google Meet, and therefore, not recorded. We are asking those in attendance to assist in answering questions etc and clearing up rumors they have heard from their friends and neighbors. In fact, the final statement at the meeting was from a resident asking the attendees to do just that. As was stated during the meeting, these ballots are not proposals to benefit the Board. They are not ‘for’ the Board. They are proposals from the Board that we hope you believe will benefit the entire community. The ballots have been on the Web site for a few days now HERE . PLEASE NOTE: These ballots have not yet been delivered to Owners. The Board will be taking one final look at them during the Jan 10 Board meeting.

Access to Kitchen Area (March 25, 2023) NEW ACCESS TO KITCHEN AREA New keypads have been installed on the door leading into the kitchen from the outside and on the small supply closet just outside of the kitchen door in Retzlaff Hall. A master code will be held by SEPO. When hosting an event or otherwise needing access to the kitchen, a temporary code can be obtained from Valerie in the office. Keep in mind, if there is a weekend event, you should obtain the temporary code prior to Valerie closing the office on Friday. In the event, you have an unexpected need to access the kitchen and Valerie is not available, the President of Women’s Club will assist you. The temporary code will be deleted the following Monday or in an otherwise timely manner following weekday events. Upon leaving the kitchen, the interior doors will be closed and must be physically locked, from inside the kitchen and people will exit from the kitchen to the outside after physically locking that door. If you oversee closing the hall, lock the doors, and exit through the kitchen as described above. The kitchen area is currently open on weekdays from 7:00 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. If a person in charge of an event wishes to lock the freezer, that person must check the key out from the office. If the freezer remains unlocked, there are cameras in place for security in the hall including the kitchen and storage room which can be reviewed for up to three months, if necessary.
