April 2023 Oracle

Hard to believe we are heading towards the end of the season …. What a season it has been!! So much to be grateful for. I choose to focus on all the positive … I personally want to thank all the volunteers who step up to make a difference in the resort. It does take a village of positive people to make this all work. Your hard work, giving so freely of your time, does not go unnoticed. It ’ s so much easier to judge from the outside on what is wrong, as opposed to jumping in and trying to make a true difference. So, all of you who help the resort become a better place, thank you!! I encourage so many more to hop on and help. Coming from my committee, I want to thank Maryellen Muir, who gives so much of her time to this resort, she has served with me for 5 seasons on the health and fitness committee. I will miss you serving with us, but I know you have so many other projects that help make this an awesome place to live! Welcome new members to the health and fitness committee. Cynthia Rose and Bobbie McDonald. Excited to have them join our committee. If you are interested in our committee, contact me at Lot #1. We have a new standup digital scale coming to the gym. It should arrive by the middle of April. All the leather on the equipment is being replaced as we speak. We no longer allow talking on cell phones in the gym. If u get a call please step outside, and respect others that are working out . We ’ ve had complaints about the gym being too hot and then some say to cold. We try hard to keep it a happy place for all, but it ’ s hard to please so many people. Just bear with us! The temperature is monitored by a phone. Please do not open the doors, it ’ s hard on the air conditioner and throws it out whack. We will be looking at new weight machines in the near future. Just another reminder, PLEASE, clean off your own equipment after each use. So many still aren ’ t doing it. Also, the cloth wipes are for cleaning the screens ONLY and the spray bottles are labeled for screens only! The blood drive was a big success. It was awesome to see so many of you out to donate. Thank you so much!!! 26 pints of blood was collected in 4 hours. That ’ s several lives saved!! The Health Fair was very nice with so many vendors, but I must be honest, the turnout was very low. There were just too many activities happening during our event. I hope that next season we can have a better turn out. The vendors pay to have a booth here, so it ’ s important we get people in the doors. Hopefully they will come back next season and we will have more people supporting the event. Enjoy your summer and remember to keep moving ❤ Chavalla Lopez, LMT, MMP Health and Fitness Chair
