The boccie playoffs were played over three days in March, with large crowds of spectators and the championship crowns going to the teams of Charles and Eileen Schlosser and Paul and Mary Boeggeman.

After the championship game, the players had a hot dog bash around the pool thanks to JoAnn Camino and her wonderful volunteers. Awards were given out at the meeting on March 29.

Thanks to the Boccie Club president, Lloyd Johnson, for adding the winners' names for the years 2003-06 to the plaque on display in the card room.

And, as always, thanks to the boccie board and all the volunteers for their help during the past season. Please be sure to sign up for next year. We hope you all have a great summer and we will see you in the fall.

The last Boccie Club meeting will be at 3 p.m. Wednesday. The new board for 2006-07 will be on hand and an ice cream social is planned for members. The sign-up sheet is at the front desk folder.

The Homeowners Association Mother's Day luncheon will be from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. May 13 in the auditorium. The menu includes tuna or chicken croissant, salad, fruit bowl, cake, coffee, tea or lemonade.

Mothers eat free; the cost for others is $4 each. Pick up your tickets in the card room from 8:30 to 10 a.m. today and May 1 and 2. Although they eat free, mothers need to pick up tickets. The breakfast is open to village residents only.

Line dance classes are finished for the season. Marie, the instructor, will see you again in October.

Do you have suggestions for hurricane preparedness, survival or return to the park? If so, drop them off at the desk, and they will be shared with residents via the village bulletin.

Here's one to get you started: Small boxes of milk — not powdered or canned, but real grade A milk in boxes that don't need refrigeration — are now available in most stores.

Remember the free blood pressure and blood sugar clinic will be from 9 to 10 a.m. Friday in the arts and crafts room. The blood sugar test requires a 12-hour fast.
