JOHN & MARGARET NOCTON
KICK OFF THE JULY 4TH EXTRAVAGANZA AS
MARSHALS OF THE PARADE

John and Margaret Nocton were our official marshals for the 2006 July 4th Extravaganza Parade. To celebrate the 4th of July residents decorated cars, golf carts, bicycles, and even dogs and paraded around the community. We also had 2 “majorettes” twirling batons. This was the second year this event was staged and in addition to the parade residents enjoyed swimming, sharing great food, and competing in a variety of games at poolside. See more photos of the event in the July Highlights section..

Community Notices

To all our wonderful friends and neighbors… You will never know how much all the cards, flowers, food, transportation and PRAYERS have meant to us the past few weeks. This was my first experience at not being able to do many routine things and I just never realized what it takes to keep everything going smoothly (or at least sort of smoothly). You all stepped in and more than anything else, kept all of us smiling with your offerings and even more, your willingness to help in anyway. Ralph and I always knew that if we got into a tough spot, one of you would be there. What a special place to call home!

Ralph and Barb Deater


A fellow resident has suggested that whenever possible folks driving golf carts to the clubhouse double up on the parking spaces, either side by side if the space is wide enough, or one cart behind the other. As our population grows, so will the number of golf carts and cars.

Thanks to the Wednesday night card players who braved the ferocious storm to run out to the pool deck to remove all of the umbrellas from the tables on July 19th. Unfortunately, we still lost 2 glass tables as the strong winds tipped them over and the tempered glass shattered. Thanks also to Tony Zito for calling Stu at home to alert him, as well as coming to the clubhouse the next day and helping Stu & John clean up broken glass. Just another example of the giving spirit of the folks that make up this very special community.

Leslie Sanazaro
In concert August 12th
7:00 pm to 9:00 pm

$7 per person - Bring a friend!

To hear a sample of Leslie’s music from her new EP “Stars In The Attic” go to:
http://www.myspace.com/lesliesanazaro

She has a wonderful range, and some of her vocals bring to mind Maria Muldaur (Midnight At The Oasis - 1973). She is extremely easy to listen to and is described as a down tempo jazz singer. We are fortunate to have her come out to HHR to do a show for us. Locally, she can also be seen at Cicero’s, Mangia Italiano, The Way Out Club, Big Johnson’s Doc Haus, and the Dorsett Inn.

Schmolsen Gold Concert/Dance
Saturday August 26th at 7:00 PM

$7 per person - bring a friend!
Contemporary and classic songs from a huge repertoire of intimate ballads, classic rock n roll, and current country music. Mickey Olsen (keyboards, vocals) and Jac Schmidt (guitar vocals) bring a wealth of profession music experience.

HHR Friday Night Golf

Each Friday evening residents gather at the pro shop at 5:30 PM to check in for a night of golf followed by a gathering either on the pro shop patio or clubhouse pool and card room to enjoy food, drink, and the friendship of other neighbors. The golf usually is a four-person scramble that often has some interesting twists that make it not only fun but competitive too. Generally the foursomes are a mix of neighbors and friends and that too offers the opportunity to meet other people in the neighborhood and share some interesting tales of past experiences. The golfers usually tee off at 6 PM and the nine holes take about 1 1/2 to 2 hours to play and then it’s time for food, drink, and the telling of tales. If you plan to play sign up at the pro shop any time between Tuesday and early Friday morning. Recently we included a celebration of the retirement of Jerry Stephenson at one of our Friday night events, photos of that outing are included with this article.
 

Thank You
Jerry Stephenson thanks the Friday Evening Golf group for helping him celebrate his first day of retirement on June 30th. Jerry said that when people ask him what he is going to do in retirement, he tells them about what a great community we have here at Heritage of Hawk Ridge.

Jack Jones - thrilled the audience at the July 8th Blue Jean Concert


 


DIXIE RHYTHM KINGS BIG HIT!

On July 22nd we tried out a new band, the Dixie Rhythm Kings. Karen Singleton had suggested them. They were great! They had 10 members including a pianist and a singer, and played standards from the 20’s & 30’s that everyone knew. We’ll be sure to book them again.

 
Besides the parade during the July 4th Extravaganza, various games, and great food, there was a spirited game of water volleyball. Our new schedule for water volleyball is Mondays at 9:30 AM and Thursdays at 6:30 PM. It’s easy to play and all are welcome.
