Because of the lengthy time required to publish these newsletters, I’m required to write these president’s letters about a month before they’re actually delivered. I’m gonna go out on a limb and say, “Happy Summer,” perhaps presumptively because May weather hasn’t been quite the show stopper we all hoped it would be, and it certainly didn’t feel like summer. It was kind of gray and damp, and, well . . . good riddance. Let’s hope that June turns out to be everything we want it to be. So, if all went to plan, the community pool opened on Memorial Day weekend replete with crisp new canopies, a freshly sanded pool surface, and a newly renovated ladies restroom. This marks the second consecutive year that ClubCorp has made a meaningful contribution toward improving Hamlet amenities. And . . . we have a new General Manager in place. Kris Reinert is now running the golf club. We wish him the best of luck, and I look forward to working with Kris to make even greater strides in the future. Ya, so the wonderful folks at Verizon have gone on strike and they didn’t quite finish splicing all the fiber optic connections before hitting the picket line. What does all this mean? God only knows. We’ve had one delay after another, and we’re all disappointed by how long this process has taken. We’ll have FIOS service eventually. Someday soon I hope. Keep your fingers crossed or say a prayer. I have not been altogether thrilled with the daily give-and-take communications between the community and our management agent at Fairfield. Without getting into too much detail, the tenor of the communications, both written and oral, were not in keeping with the friendly tone the board wishes to project. Effective immediately, Virginia Manning will be taking over as the Hamlet’s management relationship agent, replacing Suz Landi. I look forward to seeing all of you at the open meeting at the end of this month. As the community ages, it faces new challenges. I look forward to reporting to you and receiving your input in our annual forum. Have a great month.

The Flag of the United States is to be honored and carries with it both history and tradition. On June 14, 1777 the Flag Resolution was signed, making the current stars and stripes the National Flag of the United States of America. On May 30, 1916, President Woodrow Wilson called for the nation-wide observance of Flag Day. In 1949, President Harry S. Truman signed congress’ decree, making June 14th of each year National Flag Day.

It was first celebrated by a Babylonian youth named Elmesu, who carved a Father’s Day card out of clay around 4,000 years ago. His special card was to wish his father good health and long life. • Mrs. Sonora Smart Dodd (now known as “the mother of Father’s Day”), whose father was a single parent and raised his six children, first proposed a national day to recognize fathers in the US. She conceived the idea of celebrating Father’s Day while she was listening to a Mother’s Day sermon in 1909. The first Father’s Day was celebrated on June 19, 1910. • In the year 1916, US president Woodrow Wilson approved the idea of observing an annual Father’s Day. And in the year 1924, President Calvin Coolidge made Father’s Day a national event. • After a couple of decades, President Lyndon Johnson designated the third Sunday in June as Father’s Day and issued the first presidential proclamation honoring fathers in the year 1966. Then in the year 1972 President Richard Nixon signed the public law that made the Father’s Day celebration permanent. Since then, this day is celebrated each year. • Around 72% of Americans celebrate and acknowledge Father’s Day. • Do you know Father’s Day acquired fourth position last year as the most popular card-sending holiday, with an estimated $100 million sales figure? Nearly 95 million Father’s Day cards were given last year in the United States. • According to a survey, sons and daughters send 50% of the Father’s Day cards to their dads; 20% of Father’s Day cards are purchased by wives for their husbands; and that leaves 30% percent of the cards, which go to grandfathers, sons, brothers, uncles and “someone special.” Advertising Space Available! 631-223-2029 / 5starnewsletters.com / [email protected] Happy father’s day!

We are so confident in our process we offer an unsurpassable Guarantee: summertime safety! • Check weather reports for local UV index – the higher the number, the greater your exposure to skin-harming UV rays. Take extra precautions when index is eight or higher. • Cosmetic products containing sunscreen are effective. Use an SPF of at least 15 on sunexposed skin. Remember to reapply sunscreen at least every 2 hours, even when cloudy. Walking on the beach can be relaxing and help keep you in shape. But before you take that stroll and remove those flip-flops/sneakers remember these tips: • Keep your flip-flops on when walking around pool area and bathrooms to avoid athlete’s foot or other infections. • Remember to apply sunscreen to the tops of your feet and your ankles. • People with diabetes should avoid walking barefoot. You should always wear socks and shoes to protect your feet, even at the beach. SUMMER SOLSTICE • The Summer Solstice marks the beginning of the summer season in the Northern Hemisphere. On this day, the North Pole is tilted towards the Sun at the highest degree of angle. • Places in the Northern Hemisphere experience the longest hours of sunlight throughout the year on this day. The history of the Summer Solstice is rooted in both ancient mysticism and nature. This day takes place somewhere around June 20th or 21st each year. • On the Summer Solstice, the North Pole receives 24 hours of daylight, and the South Pole receives 24 hours of darkness. • Solstice comes from the Latin words for “Sun” and “to stop.” • Many Native American tribes celebrated the Summer Solstice by holding “sun dances”. • On the summer solstice, the Earth’s axis is tilted the most, up to 26°.

The day also serves to promote the oceans’ contribution life and the need to protect it from harmful pollution, overexploitation, destructive fishing and climate change. Unfortunately, as a result of human pollution and exploitation, the world’s oceans are becoming increasingly delicate. In 1992, the Government of Canada proposed World Oceans Day at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro. By 2002, the Ocean Project, a non-profit organization dedicated to conservation of the planet’s oceans, began to promote and coordinate the event on a global scale. Finally, in December of 2008, the United Nations General Assembly officially proclaimed June 8th as World Oceans Day. • The theme for World Oceans Day in 2016 is Healthy Ocean, Healthy Planet. • It is estimated that 50-80% of all life forms on Earth is found under the oceans’ surfaces. Oceans consist of 99% of all living space on the planet. • If all of the Earth’s ice melted, the oceans would rise about 216.5ft. and flood all low-lying ground. • The lowest point on the plant is located in Marianas Trench in the western Pacific. The point, known as Challenger Deep, is 6.9 miles deep. (Mt. Everest is only 5.4 miles tall). “We are tied to the ocean.
