CLUBHOUSE KITCHEN All beverages stocked in the clubhouse--soda, water, coffee or tea cost $.50 each. Please put your money in the box on the counter next to the refrigerator. If you wish to bring your own coffee or tea k-pod, there is no charge for using the Keurig. Thanks. Also, if you have any bottles or cans (5 cent deposit) you wish to recycle, put them in a bag and leave them at Linda Nemeth s garage door (9 Black Pine St.) and she will cash them in and give the proceeds to the Social Committee. KITCHEN DUTY: Over the years, the Social Committee has assumed the duty of keeping the kitchen stocked for the community. Now that the membership in the Social Committee has decreased and so few new members have come forward, we may not be able to continue to provide this service. We are therefore asking anyone who uses the clubhouse to please contribute your time for one month a year. These duties include keeping the refrigerator and pantry stocked (there is a list that states quantity of items), collecting the money from the sale of beverages, and taking out the trash the day before collection day. Trash goes only as far as the bins by the pool house. No need to put the cans out at the curb or bring them in again. Members of the Social Committee will be available to guide you through these duties. Please sign up with Pat Dodge or call her at If we do not get the help we need, we will be forced to not supply the kitchen and you will no longer have the beverages you now have. Thank you.

7 Once again the list of upcoming events is very sparse. And once again we are asking our neighbors to join the Social Committee to help plan and implement our calendar of events. We cannot remain the vibrant, wonderful, exciting community we have always been if we don t have new members to continue the work. We also would like to remind you that you do not have to be a member of the Social Community to hold a social event. Pizza Night, which is always popular, is not a Social Committee event, but is run by Alma & Frank Cavallaro. Cabaret Night was another example of a successful function not run by the Social Committee. Please consider joining the Social Committee. They meet the third Thursday of each month at 7 P.M. You don t even have to be here all winter to take part. Also, if you have an idea for a function or event, come down and present it to the Committee. They will be happy to help you in every way possible. Please think about coming to the next meeting - THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 19 th at 7 PM. SOMETHING FUN TO TRY: Did You Know???
