Reports
from Committees
Welcome Back Party
Inverness and
Turnberry are doing the party this year.
Joyce Blenkush reported that about 90 tickets have been sold to
this
point. Things are all set for the party this coming Sunday night.
Entertainment
Books
Pat Hodor reported a
profit of $144 so far. She is
going to order 20 more books.
4th of
July
There was money
returned from the 4th of July party. A
check was given to Mike for the amount of $97.76.
Cook Books
Louise reported that
cook books are still for sale and that and an additional $30.00 worth
have been
sold.
6.
Old
Business
Size of Notices:
Betty Brice reminded
people that notices on the bulletin boards should be on a 1/2 sheet of
paper if
possible, instead of a full sheet of 8 x 10 paper. By doing this, it
helps
keeps things organized for each building.
A recommendation was made to put a date on certain items and
take the
notices down after a month. If
outside people put things up on the board, they should be taken down.
Channel 95
Equipment
Ed DeCrosta reported that so far this year
the problems that we were
experiencing with the computer for channel 95 have not happened
(computer
freezing). Hopefully things will
continue to work well. Betty Brice
reminded the committee that a total of $600.00 was approved to purchase
a new
computer if needed.
The computer being
used was donated by Vince O'Connor and
will be used until we have problems with
it. Ed also reported that we
received a check from Jim Higgins in the amount of $900.00 for his
advertising
on Channel 95. The check was
turned over to Mike. Ed and Faye
are going to try and get a few other local businesses to advertise on
the
channel. This added revenue can
always be put to go use.
Rummage Sale
Betty Brice reported
that chairpersons have been picked for the rummage sale.
The chairpersons will be posted in
January and people will be able to volunteer for the committee they
wish to
serve on.
Donations for the
rummage sale are now being accepted.
Ed Davis wanted to
know if any plans have been made on how to spend the money made from
the
rummage sale. As of this time no
plans have been made. Anyone with
an idea may give them to your building rep.
7.
New
Business
Thanksgiving
Mike Manfre reported on
the
plans for the Thanksgiving Dinner.
There will be a meeting on November 15th for
planning all the
details of the dinner.
Christmas Program
Betty Brice reported
that on Tuesday, December 12th between 7 – 8:30 pm there will be a
Christmas Program in the Clubhouse. The entertainment will be a piano
player.
Jan Dorak and Pat Blood have been asked to help prepare for this
because Betty
and others will be gone on that date.
End of season
party
Westchester and Glenn
Abbey would like to retire from running the farewell party this year. Please think about whether your
building would like to help plan and run this party.
Remember When
2006-07 season
The script has been
written and a copy given to Tom Duffey.
Other than that, everything is still in the planning stages.
Lee County Parks
and Recreation
Holly O'Connor
reported that the Lee County Parks and Recreation Department has Senior
programs and activities at eh Wa-Ke Hatchee Recreation Center located
on Bass
Road. This center is located near
the new school on the right as you are going into the Lexington
community. There are many activities such
as Table
Tennis, Bridge Therapeutic Martial Arts for 55 and up, weight rooms,
Volleyball, Pilates, Line Dancing and more. A newspaper with list of
events and
activities were given out to the building reps. You can join for $5. This is a lifetime membership.
Some activities have an additional
cost.
Pool Table
A letter from Ernie
Paoletti regarding the pool table and purchasing a new gaming table was
submitted. The following is
the letter:
If
the committee agrees that this is a valid request, we ask that our
chairperson
write a letter to the Board of Governors for their consideration.
We
suggest that the pool table in the meeting and activities room be sold
because
of its limited use and because it takes up so much needed space. We further suggest that the money
obtained from such sale be used to purchase a pedestal type gaming
table which
would provide a variety of uses for members and would give that room
much
needed space.
Members
of the committee would be happy to discuss more details of this
proposal with
the Board of Governors at their convenience.
Thank
you for your consideration of this proposal.
The cost of this
table would be around $700.00. It
was mentioned that the activities committee approved the purchase of
two new
tables last year for same committee. Ed Davis stated the new tables
haven't
lasted one year. He stated the
legs are not working and new tables are needed.
It was suggested that
a survey be taken in January (everyone will be back then) on whether or
not
they use the pool table. Before we
get rid of it, we need to know the amount of use. It
was also mentioned that it's hard to use the table with the
Bingo Board in the way. The whole
issue of the back room, what to do with the items in it, where they
should be
placed and how to help the crowded condition, was of concern to
everyone
present. We need to study
what can help this room get in better shape and solve the problem of
the Bingo
Board.
A Motion was made by
Faye and seconded by Holly to form a group
to submit
to the Board a design and proposal for the placement of the Bingo Board
and
Large TV on a wall in the club house. Faye and Marge Gotro will work on
this
problem.
Phone Directory
for Golfview
The question was
raised as to whether or not a new phone directory was going to be
published
this year. If so, a few
suggestions were made to help
improve the directory. Some people
stated they like the old format, because they didn't really know
everyone's name,
but new they lived in a certain building and could find their name
easier. Also that not being listed by
building
made it hard to know their address.
Holly wasn't sure if
she and Vince were going to do the directory again this year.
8.
Adjourn
Motion made by Joyce
Blenkush and seconded by Ed Davis to adjourn the meeting.
The motion passed. The meeting was
adjourned at 4:31 pm by Betty Brice.
Next Meeting: Thursday,
January 11, 2006 at 4 pm.
