President’s Thoughts By Dick Rae…..
Letter from President …….1
Where would Schalamar Creek be without our volunteers??
Car Show……..………………...2
I got to thinking about this the other day when I was going through the
different committees and activities here at Schalamar Creek. I was preparing for the Memorial Day weekend pool party and wanted to put my team
together. The first six people I talked to volunteered with excitement and
energy—anxious to share their views.

Disclaimer
The Schalamar Creek Homeowners’ Association Summer Newsletter presents content as objectively as possible to ensure accuracy of information. However,
we have no liability to the User
as a result of any action, claim,
loss, damages or expenses, direct or consequential, suffered
by the User due to their reliance
or use of the information from
this newsletter.
Then I reflected on the HOA activities committee and all the shows and
dances they put on all year. They put in many long hours of planning and
preparation to complete these events. The chair person of each event has
to organize their team of volunteers to make these events successful.
We have a host of other activities requiring volunteers, such as pickle ball,
bocce ball, shuffleboard, water volleyball, crafts, cards and board games,
Schalamar players, Schalamar Singers, trips outside the park, CAP patrol, pot
luck, coffee and donuts, bingo and many leagues for the men and women
golfers. I apologize if I missed anybody.
Many of the volunteers are long term veterans that have served on many
committees. We are also seeing new people and new ideas being introduced all the time. It’s exciting and ensures our many activities will continue.
The summer activities we are planning have been met with excitement and
support as we are trying to bring back year round fun and enjoyment with a
smaller volunteer force. I would ask for continued support from the residents so we can make all our activities successful.
If you are enjoying any of our activities and talk to any of the volunteers,
please don’t hesitate to thank them for their efforts.
Put a smile on their face!!

Schalamar Men’s Golf League
Summer League
Anyone not presently a member of the Men’s League, but are interested in joining the league for the
summer, can see Gene Novak or the Pro Shop for sign up. The entry fee is $17.50. The summer league
plays on Monday mornings. The sign-up sheet is on the Men’s league bulletin board in the hallway outside the pro shop. You can sign up for 9 or 18 holes. The pro shop makes up the pairings and the games.
An added attraction for the summer league is a $5 cash prize for closest to the pin on hole numbers
4 & 6. Closest to the pin prizes will be given for each nine holes played in the league.
Election of Officers
The Men’s league will have an election of officers in November. There is a sign-up sheet on the bulletin
board for anyone interested in running for the open positions of president and vice president. If you are
not here in the summer, you can e-mail me to express your interest. We would like all volunteer candidates’ names no later than October 1, 2016, so that the league secretary can post the list of candidates in
compliance with our by-laws. So far, we have two persons interested in the president position and one
person interested in the vice president position.

Determination, Exercise and Aging by Diane Hastings
As we age, everything seems to either slow down or hurt. Excuses for lack of desire abound. Unless medical conditions
prevent activity, challenging yourself in all directions helps slow down both physical and cognitive decline.
First to admit, easier said than done, perhaps I push myself too much, but overall, challenging of the mind and body reaps
rewards, even if it’s lying face down on the couch saying, “What the hell was I thinking?”
During a recent stay-cation, my goal was to paint the master bedroom. Plan in place, a goal for each day, the daunting task
began. With the Flower man away most mornings, I pushed myself to begin work the moment he left. As a person who
normally has to pre-plan the day for a few hundred people, walks miles each day, this task should be a snap! With certain
smugness, I began hauling all the necessary components for the task to the designated room, this included a cup of coffee
(closed container), past experiences with open cups were firmly etched in my aging brain. I had pre-planned by removing
some furniture to other rooms, even cleaning out drawers in the process, but THAT was a task in itself. Past experiences
also reminded me: wear shoes that will remain on your feet—flip-flops are not work shoes. Proper tools for the job: A brief
sidebar here, eons ago, I reminded my sons, “kitchen utensils are NOT screwdrivers” as visions of bent butter knives swirled
through my head!
Approximately ninety minutes into the job, taping completed, electrical plates removed and stored properly (Ziploc bag),
again a side bar ..those little screws from the electrical plates: nasty to find in the carpet at 2 AM bathroom run, also a common occurrence during the aging years. By 11 AM, the first wall completed, cleanup begins. Brushes washed, paint cans
securely covered, we won’t sidebar on this one, although we could but the memory is much too painful!
The Flower Man, home from his morning duties, is impressed. I have a sense of accomplishment, am feeling smug, let’s eat
lunch! With a bit of quiet time well deserved, I sit to read the paper, check e-mails and relax ..another side bar.. I should
have continued exercising regularly over the years, every muscle in my neck and knees screamed for mercy. It did not become easier as the week progressed, but the job completed and a sense of accomplishment overtook the pain. I also
learned to pace myself and took heed in the words of a famous philosopher: Confusius say, “It doesn’t matter how slowly
you go, as long as you don’t stop”. Amen to that!

Crochet Guild
Deb Weiderman, President 863-816-4876
Happy summer to the hardy souls who live year round at Schalamar! We already miss
our northbound friends. It was hard for some of our groups to break for the summer, but we will resume
our busy activities in the fall.
I would like to let you know that the Crochet Guild meets year round every Tuesday from 2-3:30 pm in the
All Purpose Room. Our numbers have diminished somewhat, but we still have plenty of ladies in attendance
Since you will have time on your hands, now would be a great time for you to learn to crochet. Joining our
group is very easy. Just show up with $10 in hand and we will supply you with a crochet hook and a starter
ball of yarn. You will have one-on-one instruction from our expert team.
Over the summer, we will be working on patriotic afghans to donate to the Veteran’s Dance in November.
We would love for your input into this most valuable project. If you would like to donate red, white and
blue yarn, or even a completed afghan, please drop it off during the above mentioned times. We would
much rather see your smiling face, but donations are always welcome. We are also busy working on items
for our fall crafts fairs. We would love suggestions on what you think might sell.
Come play with us!!
Busy Fingers
by Sandy Slack
Hello everyone, I hope you are enjoying your summer.
There are several projects that we will be working on over the summer.
Here’s an example of a few:
We will be making assorted greeting cards, bundling 3 or 4 together to be given to a variety of cancer support groups.
We will be working on a couple centerpieces for events here at Schalamar Creek.
We also will be painting glasses to be again, given to charity
The next few weeks will be Open Crafting on Thursday’s, 1 – 3 pm. Bring in your own project
your working on, or just come and visit.
Please watch the bulletin board in the Craft Room for dates on these events.
Summer hours: Tuesdays 11 AM to 2 PM

WATER AEROBICS
Coordinators: Cheryl Grant (816-3050) and Vicki Rice (614-338-9380)
Water aerobics is another free activity that continues all summer. It is currently well attended by 12-16
women (Men are not excluded, they just don’t come). We meet at the pool Monday through Friday at 9 AM for a 40 minute
workout. Our instructor, Bobby Jo, is never late, is always perky, has a great voice and knows just how to get us going. You see,
Bobby Jo encourages us via CD.
Everyone works at their own pace, using low impact exercises. If you fall, the water catches you and puts you back on your feet.
Neuropathy prevents me from doing a lot of walking, so this is a great alternative. In addition to exercise, the ladies work on
their tans and their Vitamin D levels. It gets you out of the house early and ready to “plunge” (pardon the pun) into your day
Our conversation is lively and always encouraging.
Light rain and cool temperatures don’t stop these foolhardy gals. Unless there is a thunderstorm or gale force winds in the air,
they will be there. I am a wimp when it comes to the weather, so you will only see me there if the sun is shining and the temperatures are in the high 60’s. There is no problem in the dead of summer when the pool feels like bath water and you actually
sweat while getting wet. Hats and heavy applications of sunscreen are essential then.
When there is a lot of us, you run the risk of getting whacked by flailing arms and legs, but this seldom happens because we all
develop a sixth sense for those around us. There are those who use the cold pool when it gets crowded, but it is difficult to hear
some of the instructions from there. No matter, you still get a workout and you feel better about yourself. Feel free to join
us..if you dare!
——Deb Weiderman
MOTHER’S DAY LUNCHEON 2016
The Mother’s Day Lunch at Schalamar on May 7th was a huge success. The
best one yet, attended by 75 of our most deserving ladies. With the help of
Bright House and 10 volunteers, we pulled it off. Thanks to Jim Zimmer, who
gave every lady a red carnation and to Pattie Hornbeck, who prepared a little
gift for the girls over 90. Nadime Sims made 85 cup cakes, which were enjoyed by everyone. Since HOA is planning to
support the lunch in the future, this good work will continue. Many thanks to the Caddy Shack staff, Linda Peelo, Chris
Eaton, Linda Bushong, Kathy Brickely, Aaron Lusby and Wayne Short. It takes a village.

A Special Thank You to Dick Rae, President of the SCHOA and Mark Schneider, G M of Schalamar Creek for collaborating on an idea to bring a summer community newsletter to life. That was the easy part. The important player in
this process is Ginny Reid, volunteering to bring the product to fruition. In order to bring the residents a year-round
newsletter, the Schalamar Creek Community is supporting the printing of the Summer newsletter. If you would like
to submit an article for the newsletter, please submit it to Ginny ([email protected]) by the 15th of the month
to have it appear in the newsletter. Also, feel free to submit questions that pertain to the community. We will introduce a Q & A section in the summer newsletter. Questions will be reviewed by the HOA and SC Management
and a collaborative response will be given.
Paper Recycling
We really appreciate your help in keeping the
planet green, but we need to follow the rules
for the recycling bin by the clubhouse!!!
CAP Volunteers Needed
The CAP (Citizen Assisted Patrol) is a volunteer group under the
direction of the Polk County Sheriff’s Department. The volunteers perform a 2 hour shift weekly around the streets of Schalamar Creek. Their mission is to OBSERVE and REPORT possible
problems to the Sheriff’s Department. The patrols start at 8 AM
and end at 4 PM daily. The summer is the hardest shifts to fill as
many of our riders have returned back north. The patrol is a nice
way to see all of Schalamar and the many things going on and
meet many residents and their dogs. The cart is well known for
carrying doggie treats and our 4-footed friends know many of us
well. If you think you would enjoy the ride and are of the volunteering nature, we would love to talk with you and show you
what we have to offer. You can contact Ray Mitchell at 863-8166348, Gary Ross at 863-668-8640, Sandy Schultz at 207-653-2695

DELIVERY OPTIONS
Why do we live at Schalamar Creek?
Is it the first impression we get as we come through the gate, of
it’s beauty and it’s being so serene? Is it the first look at the beautiful
greenness that is the golf course? Is it perhaps the beautifully manicured
homes we see as we drive through the community? Maybe it’s the beautiful clubhouse with it’s pools outside and always busy rooms inside. All
these things are benefits, but are they reasons? The answer, of course, is
that they are part of the reason.
The real answer is pretty simple. All we need to do is walk out of
our front doors and look around. It is our neighbors, our golfing friends,
our card playing buddies, our crafting friends, the people we meet for
breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It’s the folks we see as we walk our dogs, ride
our bikes, or just meet taking a walk. That’s why we’re here.
We all came from different backgrounds, different work careers,
different parts of the country. We all came, however, with one idea in
mind, to enjoy our latter years in a sunny warm climate.

Do we all have the same ideas on everything or anything. Probably not, but we all bring many good thoughts from our past lives that we
wish to share. It’s a wonderful conversation and sometimes a new activity emerges.
Life is to be relaxing, stress-less, and fun. We all are why we live at
Schalamar.
Enjoy!!!
SCHALAMAR CREEK PHONE BOOK
The Schalamar Creek Phone Book is an continuing project all year long. We try to
stay current on the information that is published, but we do need your help and
input. Our records are only as good as the information that is passed on to the
HOA. Please let us know if there are any changes to your listing. If you are new to
Schalamar Creek, or know someone who is new, please let us know so that they will
be recognized in our next directory. We also publish a monthly listing of birthdays
and anniversaries, so if you would like yours listed, please tell us. There is also a
listing in the back of the phone book for e-mails. If you need to make changes,
please e-mail me at [email protected] , call me at 863-669-1963 or by mail at
1148 Ashboro Court.
Thank you for your help in keeping our phone book up to date.
