BBQ's
On Saturday, May 23rd, in celebration of
Memorial Day, Sal cooked up some burgers, dogs, beans, corn and tossed a little
salad for those hanging out at Silver Palms RV Resort. The question: Is Amanda
supervising, assisting or just watching? Hmmm. Stay tuned, and plan to come for
these upcoming, delicious Saturday BBQ Celebrations, 2-4pm, Poolside. BYOB, and
remember fun to please leave the glass at home.

Organizers are needed to lead and/or teach a group. It's possible
to have more than one leader per group. These leaders are also the liaison
between the group member and the lifestyle director. They work with the
director to find space and determine the best time based on the current
schedule of activities. The director will also communicate this information
through all available channels. Needed:
- Library.
This entails weeding out and replacing books, plus adding any new
donations to the shelves. After several years, Barbara Striker has decided
to pass the wand. Thank you, Barbara, for giving Palms everyone a
well-organized library!
- Hand and
Foot. Several people touring have asked if this is an activity. Is anyone
out there willing to start this up?

Resortgate
An investigation conducted by the Silver Palms
RBI has found evidence that the gate code was released to the public by several
culprits, too many to pin down, and the scandal perpetuated due to an
inefficient process. "This has to stop," said the Resort GM, Lisa
Migliore. To prevent future violations, Silver Palms RV Resort is in the
process of installing a new gate system, and each owner will be given two cards
at no cost. Replacements will cost $5. More details to be released as they come
in. (FYI: (1) this is just a fun pun against all the "gates" in the
news; (2) the old gate code will still work until all owners have access to
their gate cards.)
Community Highlight

Manager's Final Word
By Lisa Grasso Migliore
There's a lot of work being accomplished here at
Silver Palms in this steamy Florida heat - from painting to cleaning to
updating the facilities. I've hired Aquatic Vegetation to maintain our lakes
and wetlands; they are expected to begin in June Silver. The new bathhouse has
sheetrock and spackle and is on schedule for completion. Also, a new storage
update is in the process of being outlined. It will be released to the owners
in a separate communication. In closing, I'll do my best to keep you up-to-date
throughout the summer in this monthly, off-season newsletter. And know that
anytime you have questions and comments, feel free to drop me a line by clicking here. If it concerns you, it concerns me!
