The Ceramic Club
by Mariann Hornlein
While driving around Holiday Village,
you may have seen an occasional turtle resting under a bush
or a rabbit peering at you, or perhaps a friendly gnome peeping
through the leaves. What you may be seeing are some of
the results of our ceramics class. This activity has been
ongoing for 25 years and meets in the craft room of the
clubhouse every Monday night between 6:30 and 8 p.m. Al
Virgilio is the present chairman and kiln-master.
The present ten members of the group either buy our
bisque from the items available at the clubhouse or through
Al from other sources. And we buy everything! Turtles of
all sizes are a great favorite and make wonderful presents.
Lit and plain Christmas trees also come in many sizes and
are in plentiful supply in the months preceding Christmas.
Right now, bunny rabbits, chicks and Easter eggs are
available. We have made vases, pitchers, napkin holders,
candy dishes, church scenes, motorcycles, plates, elephants,
welcome plaques, wall plaques, bowls, dragons, fish and
just about anything you can imagine.
Al has books that show the paints available, including
under-glazes, crystle, neon, crackle and regular glazes. And,
of course, there are the many stains which do not require
firing in our kiln. Al will help anyone choose the proper
glaze or stain for a particular project and will also show
anyone who asks the proper technique and brush to be used.
Since the various paints come from different manufacturers,
we buy them through Al who goes to wholesalers for us.
If you would like to spend a few hours of your time
creating something for a gift, a yard, or just for fun; if you
would like to see what you can create for your kitchen or
bathroom or wall and have fun doing it, come out and see
what is going on.
Energy Solicitors
from The HVCSA Office
Please be aware that there are men and women
canvassing the area trying to get residents to sign up for an
alternate energy program. They have been very aggressive
and are asking for personal information and demanding to
see your PSE&G bills. They are neither representatives of
PSE&G nor are they from the State Energy Commission,
as they have been claiming.
The Mt. Laurel police have told the management office
that these people do not have permits to solicit in Mt. Laurel.
The police have said to call them immediately if they come
to your door, and they suggest you do NOT open your door
to them. Also residents have been receiving phone calls
from this company. Remember, you have the power to
hang up your phone immediately if you do not recognize the
caller on the other end. It is suggested you do not let them
engage you in conversation because they can be very
persistent and persuasive.
The non-emergency phone number for Mt. Laurel
police is: 856-234-8300. This number is also printed on
the last page of the 2013 Holiday Village Directory.

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
by Gene Kutner
Mount Laurel Township has come to realize
that handling the blue recycle container may
be too difficult for some of the residents in
“Over 55” communities. Exemption forms are available at
the Clubhouse Office. If signed by your physician and
submitted to the township, you may be permitted to put
your paper recycle items in with your regular weekly trash.
A date for a pick-up of the blue containers will be announced
shortly. For those few people who are storing the blue
containers outside their house, the Board asks that they be
placed inside your garage.
A group of young men representing an alternative electric
company have been soliciting our residents to change their
electric provider. They have been coming in the late
afternoon and upsetting many of our residents. We have a
“No Soliciting” policy here in Holiday Village and we suggest
calling the police if they knock on your door.
The Board is investigating the purchase of an automatic
door opener for the Clubhouse. This would be a big help
for our some of our residents. We also are considering
using fobs similar to the ones in use for the Fitness Center
to enter the Clubhouse after the office closes at 3 p.m. each
day. This will prevent strangers from entering the Clubhouse
without our Custodian’s knowledge and heighten security.
You will soon be receiving a list of the candidates and
their qualifications who will be running for the Board of
Trustees. We hope you will attend the “Meet the Candidates
Night” on April 3 and exercise your right to vote on April 16.
Holiday Village is a corporation with an annual budget of
three quarters of a million dollars and it is important that we
elect competent Board members.

AROUND THE WORLD
provide general medical information such as medical history,
what their local doctor says about their condition, and what
is the reason they want to go on the medical tour. Next, they
are advised by either a certified medical doctor or a
consultant. Then, the approximate cost for accommodation,
travel, and the actual procedure is discussed.
Once the patient arrives at their destination country, the
medical tourism provider will assign a case executive to the
patient. The case executive will take over handling all of the
patient’s accommodation, traveling to and from the hospital
and all other general care.
But there are risks involved. Some of these risks relate to
being sure that the quality of your treatment is excellent.
Other risks are related to traveling both before and after
treatment and also, what would happen if something goes
wrong with your treatment? So you need to research carefully
and seek reliable advice on whether or not medical tourism
is appropriate for you.
with Jack and Joan Fingerman
856-206-9613
Medical travel or medical tourism/health tourism refers
to people/patients traveling abroad to receive healthcare. Also,
it is when medical providers travel to other countries to
provide care.
The many popular sites for these travels are India,
Malaysia, Philippines, Cuba, Columbia, Thailand, Argentina,
Mexico and most recently Ukraine.
Well over 800,000 US citizens in 2011 alone have gone
on these medical ventures seeking cheaper healthcare. It
has become a major part of the industry in many countries.
It is so important that now South Africa has medical safaris
to further enhance their medical touring industry. It will be
a $100 billion dollar market by next year.
Senior citizens and senior communities are especially
vulnerable to medical travel. Why would anyone do this?
For medical professionals, this means big bucks. They know
that someone from another country might be willing to pay
double what their patients in their country would for a
procedure. Or in other cases, they will go to another country
to perform a more risky surgery that cannot be done in their
home country.
For the people seeking the medical help¸ the case is
usually that they don’t want to pay too much to have a
certain job done, so those on a tight budget may prefer to
travel to have such a procedure carried out, saving money
for the next treatment rather than spend too much on this
one treatment. For example, a knee surgery performed in
Thailand may cost almost $410,000 less than it would in the
United States. So of course someone would rather travel
there and save money for the next procedure than spend all
of his or her money on one procedure.
Last year, many of America’s senior citizens traveled to
Mexico to receive either dental care or nursing home care.
Most have said that they travel to Mexico because their
insurance won’t cover all that it should. Or they have full
coverage by insurance and they want to visit another country.
Surprisingly, the medical fad is catching on so much now
that many companies are thinking about saving money by
offering their employees medical treatments in other countries.
It’s predicted that this will save them at least 70 percent of
what they are paying now.
So how exactly do you go a medical tour? It sounds
seemingly easy. People who are seeking medical treatment
will contact a medical tourism provider. The patient will then

“EN PATROUILLE”
·
by Gil McDonald, Neighborhood Watcher on Foot Patrol
·
Over recent weeks, as I have walked the HV campus, I
find with some frequency collections of hardware left behind
by contractors. Here is a picture of some of the nails, screws
and staples that I have picked up outside HV residences.
This stuff was just waiting for a chance to jump into your
car tires.
When you put your blue bucket to the curb, place it
with the wheels against the curb. On each of two recent
recyclable pickup days, I found about a dozen buckets either
backwards or sideways. The pickup device cannot handle
those cleanly.
Also, because the pickup device and its operator need
room to work, leave 2-3 feet between the blue bucket and
anything else, i.e. your mailbox or other containers. Be
particularly alert to where you put your blue bucket vis-a-vis
parked cars; we don’t want a car scratched or your bucket
left behind because it was inaccessible.
I usually walk during the mid-to-late morning timeframe,
but one evening I was busy earlier and took my lap around
the Village between 7 and 7:30 p.m. Since it was dark, and
remembering Harry Ivory’s frequent reminders to light up
residences to deter intruders, I decided to see how many
houses were unlit. I walked from my house on Bastian up
to Holiday Boulevard at the top end, turned left then left
again into Falmouth, thru to Fairfax and across to Bastian at
the lower end and thence home. Of the 236 residences I
passed, counting those on the adjoining courts, 65, or more
than a quarter, were completely dark. I did not count those
that had only interior lights or the proportion would have
been well over half. All I could think was that here were
dozens of houses calling out to would-be burglars, “Pick
me! Pick me!
Lesson for all: If you have work done to your house
that involves some disassembly or demolition with
subsequent rebuilding or reconstruction, make it very clear
to your contractor that you expect him to clean up thoroughly
after himself. Emphasize that this requirement includes the
areas where he has worked, both inside and out, and wherever
he parked his vehicle.
Invariably, after trash or recyclable collection, I see loose
trash. For sure the trash guys do drop some, but they would
probably drop less if we implement a few simple suggestions:
Bag trash as securely as possible; minimize the numbers
The Holiday Villager
March 2013
of loose bits.
Be especially aware when high winds are forecast;
tighten everything down as best you can
Avoid overfilling recyclable buckets; if it doesn’t fit, bag
it.

FLORIDA FACT AND FICTION
#The Everglades has a variety of snakes, including
Burmese pythons, descended from pets dumped there by
disillusioned owners. Their length exceeds 10 feet and they’re
wide enough to swallow a child.
by Don Rosser
Florida is one of America’s favorite states. Right or
wrong, here’s what I KNEW about it.
#Seminoles, Florida’s largest Indian tribe, were feisty.
After the Third Seminole War (1855 - 1858), hostiles were
forcibly relocated to Oklahoma. The Florida remnant now
operates casinos.
It’s a long peninsula. It has the Everglades with alligators
and rivers with manatees. It’s the Sunshine State, except
during hurricanes. Its native people, the Seminoles, are
vastly outnumbered by Cubans and retired Northerners. St.
Augustine was the first city founded in the U.S. Florida
citrus fruit has pits. Florida has no state income tax.
#In 1861, at the start of the Civil War, slave-state Florida
seceded. Without major battles, Union forces occupied many
of its coastal cities. Florida was re-admitted in 1868.
Here’s what I KNOW NOW about Florida’s long
history.
#After World War 1, the construction of railroads finally
opened the peninsula to development. The first land boom
arrived in the early 1920s.
#Juan Ponce de Leon discovered it in 1513 and named
it La Florida, Spanish for flowered land. Early Spanish
explorers reached the Mississippi, laying Spain’s claim to a
West Florida extending along the Gulf of Mexico to that
river.
#Florida’s population today is over 18 million, fourth in
the nation. It also has populations of rattlers, skinks, and
Florida panthers.
#Florida is 375 miles long, or 500 miles if you count the
Keys. At its widest, it’s 160 miles across the panhandle to
Alabama. As we learned in the election of 2000, it spans
two time zones. With 53,958 square miles, Florida ranks
22nd in size. Lakes and swamps make it the third wettest
state. (Alaska is first.)
#The first settlement was not St. Augustine, but
Pensacola in 1559, when 1,400 settlers in 11 boats arrived
from VeraCruz, Mexico, led by Tristan Arellano. A hurricane
devastated the settlement later in the year, causing
abandonment of the place in 1561. St. Augustine was settled
by Spaniards in 1565. Although privateer Francis Drake
burned it in 1586, St. Augustine is the oldest continuously
inhabited city in North America. Jacksonville was settled
shortly thereafter as a haven for French Huguenots.
#People flock to Florida for its climate. But, as frozen
oranges attest, the weather can be frisky. The hottest
temperature ever recorded was 109 degrees. Those who
believe the mercury never goes below zero must reckon
with reality. A temperature of -2 was recorded in 1899 at
Tallahassee.
# Spain, after losing the Seven Years’ War with Britain,
traded Florida to the English in 1763 in exchange for control
of Havana. However, after Britain was defeated in the
American Revolution, Spain took Florida back. In 1810,
settlers declared independence, and President Madison began
the American annexation, claiming Florida was part of the
Louisiana Purchase.
Back to Juan Ponce from Leon. He reported that he
dropped anchor at 30 degrees, 8 minutes north latitude. A
possible landing site is an inlet that bears his name, Ponce
Inlet, just south of Daytona. And, as the year was 1513,
Florida is celebrating its 500th year anniversary, almost every
day of it above zero.
#Florida was made a U.S. territory in 1821 and became
the 27th state in 1845. It had many plantations where sugar
