Snowbird Farewell
What a wonderful evening we had at the Snowbird Farewell potluck. We had 56 excited and hungry people. There were so many dishes to choose from and of course we ate too much.
A map of Oregon was cut into puzzle like pieces and each party had to try to fill in the map where they thought it might go. There were drawings for candy and three stuffed animal “snowbirds”. Jackie put on a skit using several guests. It was funny.
We had cake and ice cream. While that was being devoured, Karen handed our small purses filled with money for their trip (of course it was play money…..darn). The guests staying for the winter were given ‘crying towels’. Thanks to Karen Hofferber, Jackie Deal and Kathy Perry for the great party.

Reminder . . .
There seems to be interest by quite a few members that our clubhouse is in need of some tender loving care. This issue was brought up at our recent Annual Meeting. You all should have received a Clubhouse Survey in your mailbox this past Monday. The survey will give us a better idea of how you feel about this subject. Perhaps we can start some planning to address these needs. We encourage everyone to fill out this brief questionnaire and drop it into the “In Park” mail slot by this Friday, September 23rd. The Office will be closed the following week for carpet replacement. We will share the results of the survey at a later date. Thank you very much.
