Members are wishing everyone a
wonderful June filled with fun and
good times.
Flag Day is the June 14, and I know
that everyone will proudly display
that wonderful American Flag with
pride.
On June 21, we need to turn back
the pages of time and laugh at the
stories about all of our Fathers, and
how much all of us are just like him.
Happy Father’s Day!
We would like to welcome all of our
new Residents to our wonderful
Community.
We would like to meet you and
encourage you to join our friendly

Charles Goren told this story ... A
fellow had made a bad bid, and had
gone down 1400 points. “I am sorry,”
he said to his partner. “I had a card
misplaced.” His partner innocently
asked him, “Only one”?
Always remember that the first rule
of life is to have a good time. The
second rule of life is to hurt as few
people as possible. There is no third
rule. Brenden Gill (Writer)
Have a Happy Healthy June and bid

June brings the beginning of our
Summer Survival Events where you
get to choose your own partner for a
round of fun and laughter followed
by a yummy lunch and socializing.
June is also the Great Outdoors
Month so we are fortunate to be
able to spend our time on the golf
course. If we could control the
weather we’ll ask for rain overnight
to catch up on our drought to keep
the course green.
Our league is still growing, now at
44 members although, participation
in summer months does decline
without our snowbird members. Safe
