“For the Residents, by the Residents” Merry Christmas December 2011

Christmas Past

Each Christmas I remember

The ones of long ago;

I see our mantelpiece adorned

With stockings in a row.

Each Christmas finds me dreaming

Of days that used to be,

When we hid presents here and there,

For all the family.

Each Christmas I remember

The fragrance in the air

Of roasting turkey and mince pies

And cookies everywhere.

Each Christmas finds me longing

For Christmases now past,

And I am back in childhood

As long as memories last.

A Sunny Christmas

Every year at Christmas time

there’s not a sign of snow.

Instead we spend our yuletide days

in the sun's warm cheery glow.

We have the best of Christmas things,

The lights, the gifts, the bells,

(And "snowbirds" who arrive en masse

To fill our beach hotels and homes.)

The glorious weather fits right in

With our happy Christmas mood,

And we can also walk and run

Without having to be snow shoe’d.

So don't feel bad for your (Dade City) friends

who have no snow or ice.

We think our sunny Christmas here

is a holiday paradise!

Santa May Be Late!

I’m writing this note to remind you, that inflation has taken away, the things that I hold most essential.

My workshop, my reindeer, my sleigh and now I’m making my rounds on a Donkey.

He’s old, he’s crippled, he’s slow………….So you’ll know if I don’t see you at Christmas, that I’m out on my

Behind in the snow up North or the sand here in Florida!

Ever wonder why????

Not long ago and not far away, Santa was getting ready for his annual trip, but there were problems

everywhere.

Four of the elves got sick, and the trainee elves did not produce toys as fast as the regular elves, so

Santa was beginning to feel the pressure of being behind schedule. Then Mrs. Claus told Santa that her

Mom was coming to visit. This stressed Santa ev

When he went to harness the reindeer he found that three of them were about to give birth and two

had jumped the fence and were out, heaven knows where……………more stress.

And then, when he began to load the sleigh one of the boards on the sleigh cr

to the ground and scattered all the toys. Frustrated, Santa went back into the house for a cup of coffee

and a shot of whiskey. He found that the elves had hit the liquor cupboard and there was nothing there

to drink. In his frustration, Santa dropped the coffee pot on the floor and it broke into hundreds of little

pieces. He went to get the broom and found the mice had eaten the straw it was made from.

Just then the doorbell rang and Santa cussed on his way to the door. He

angel with a great big Christmas Tree. The angel said, “Santa, where would you like to put this

Christmas Tree?”

And that my friend is how the little angel came to be on top of the Christmas tree!

From the Managers

Extra Parking.

Parking in the RV storage area is now by assigned space only except …. we have designated 2

spaces for guest parking. If you have guests and don’t have room for them in your driveway, they can park in

one of the 2 spaces adjacent to the dumpsters (see signs for guest parking). All other spaces are assigned to

specific vehicles. As of this writing, we still have a few spaces available. If you need a space, even on a short-

term basis, please come to the office to check availability and/or request a space. And remember, just because a

space looks empty, doesn’t mean it is available. You wouldn’t want to take a trip and then come back with your

RV, camper, trailer or truck, and find you can’t park where you thought you could, would you?

In a Hurry?

We have noted several drivers who seem to have a heavy foot. As the signs state, the speed limit throughout the

park is 15mph. Please slow down, especially early morning and evening when there are many residents out

walking or cruising in their golf carts. By the way, the speed limit also applies to golf carts!

Please Help Us …

Keep the clubhouse floor clean. If you spill something, it would be greatly appreciated if you would wipe up

your spill. Since the tile has been installed, we have had the dust mop “stick” to the floor several times when

trying to dry mop the floor and we regularly find “spots” where something gooey has been deposited (maybe

someone is thinking it will air dry or evaporate by itself). We can’t wash the floor every day but we do try to

wash it at least once a week (now that doesn’t mean it’s ok to be “sloppy” the day before we wash). And a

thank you to the LaForests for volunteering to help in keeping the clubhouse clean.

Backyards.

John recently rode around the park with Rick, the lawn maintenance contractor, to check on overgrown trees in

back yards. They did find several trees, especially fruit trees, that needed attention, because they were making it

difficult for the mowers to get around. He also found that some back yards are a little “messy”. Keeping your

back yards looking nice is just as important as keeping your front yards looking nice. We all want Southfork to

be a community that the residents are proud of and that people desire to live in. Please check your backyard to

see if it could use some attention.

Where To Hang Those Wet Clothes.

We have noted several nice-looking structures that are attached to carports that could be used to hang things

from. And we have actually seen some clothes hanging on those structures in carports! Please remember that

the rules only allow umbrella type clotheslines (Rule 19G). These nice-looking structures could be used for

hanging plants, but not clothes.

Reminder - Resident Referral Program.

Just a reminder that we have instituted a resident referral program where you, as a resident, can earn up to $500

if you refer someone who buys a home in Southfork. You may have already seen the flyers that explain what the

program is about but if you haven’t, or even if you have, please come by the office and ask about this great

opportunity!

See you around the park!

John & Sandi

Christmas Holidays

Christmas and Holiday decorations sparkle the entire community. Thanks in advance to all who

decorate their homes for the holiday season. It really adds to the spirit and gives a

neighborhood feeling of good will and cheer. If you have a chance, take a ride through this wonderful

community of homes and check out the beautiful scenes.

Hanukkah Begins at Sun down Dec 20th

At last! At last! Hanukkah is here! The whole house is bursting with holiday cheer.

Pancakes are sizzling as hard as they can, Browning delectably crisp in the pan.

The dreidels can scarcely wait to be spun; Presents are hidden for Hanukkah fun.

And there, on the table, polished and bright, the shining menorah gleams through the night.

Like the oil lamp in ancient history, that burned on and on miraculously!

And each flaming candle proclaims the great story of the Maccabean heroes, their deeds and their glory.

NOMINATING COMMITTEE

The Southfork Mobile Homeowners Association nominating committee, chaired by,

Tony Trubiano, is now and has been working to get a slate of potential candidates to

fill the positions on the Board such as, President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer for the

upcoming elections at our January 2012 Annual meeting.

Please take some time to think of this opportunity so your voice can be heard and join the ranks of the

other volunteers of directors. If you are interested in being a candidate for one of the positions on the

Board or if you know of anyone who might be interested, call Tony at 813-992-0844

from the Association President

Women’s Club

On November 2nd, 43 ladies attended the monthly meeting. The clubhouse was decorated

for Thanksgiving and this was hosted by Mary Bolin, Brenda Goebel, Ginger Shanbeck and

Willie Stoever. Thanks to Kathy Gallick and Dixie Logoyda for the decorating of the stage for

the baby shower. The meeting was followed by a beautiful lunch prepared by our social group.

Thanks to all for your great work!

All the reports were read and approved. The Charity committee will try to get Bob Williams to come

and talk to us about the Troops at our January meeting. We had him before and his program was very

interesting. We sent him $200.00 for the postage to help him with the shipping of parcels to the

troops.

Mary Bolin talked about the Bazaar on November 19th and everyone is ready. Thanks to Nancy

McCallan who brought a beautiful Advent Calendar that she had quilted this summer and donating to

our club to be raffled at our bazaar.

Willie Stoever did a wonderful presentation on the Pilgrims followed by a series of questions and

some prizes were given to the winners and it was excellent. A lot of work was put in this presentation

and thank you Willie for a job well done. We also raffled off 5 bags of Avon Products given by Tanya

Hahn. Thank you Tanya!!!

At 10:30am, we had 2 women from the “Foundations of Life”, Marisela Castillo and Lillian Gimenez

who came for the baby shower and we had so many items for them and they were so appreciative

and they had to fill their van to the top because of the success of the baby shower. Here is a list of

the many items donated by our generous members: 3 large diaper bags, 4 crib sheets, 4 high chairs,

18 large pack of wipes, 44 toiletries, 6 baby bottles (1 w/money, $15.49), 2 bottle cleaners, 12 packs of

pacifiers, 7 baby body care, 21 boxes of assorted sizes of diapers, 1 umbrella stroller, 1 baby mobile, 14

pairs of socks, 3 pairs shoes, 47 receiving blankets, 9 quilted crib blankets, 4 hand knitted sweaters, 8

hand knitted hats, 3 towels, 24 wash cloths, 19 bibs, 112 pieces of clothing.

On December 7th, we will have our meeting in the clubhouse at 10:00am with a gift exchange of

approximately $10.00 and you will receive a gift back from Santa. It should be a lot of fun and also

some surprises. After this meeting we will all go to the Golden Corral for our Christmas lunch.

PS “TOYS FOR TOTS” brought a box in the clubhouse. We don’t want any toys, but we would like

(Children’s underwear, socks, tooth brushes and tooth paste) instead.

The Women’s Club will again supply $300.00 worth of children’s shoes as in the previous years.

Please do not bring any canned goods to this meeting in December because we are going out for

lunch. Thank You for all of your generosity during this entire year!

Marielle, President

Southfork Men’s Club

The Men’s Club gathered at the clubhouse on Nov. 3rd

and conducted

a meeting. We welcomed one new member and discussion was held on

possible events and/or activities for the New Year. We talked about having a

dance or party with music and this will be pursued at the December meeting.

There is a sign up sheet at the clubhouse for all who are interested.

We are now collecting dues for the year 2012, so please see Pete, our treasurer,

at the next meeting.

enjoy our Christmas luncheon. Don’t forget to sign up at the clubhouse so that

we can make proper seating arrangements. Looking forward to seeing you all

there.

SOUTHFORK'S

“A LUAU in lieu of Halloween”

Bobbi Gillis & Don Duarte Enjoying Luau (Photo by Pete Logoyda)

True to Southfork's way of doing things we decided to have a Hawaiian Style Luau in

“lieu” of Halloween.

After many hours of planning, heavy construction and cajoling of persons to volunteer to

help, our pool, gazebo and clubhouse was transformed into a tropical Honolulu Hilton

Courtyard Lagoon

Flaming tiki torches set the mood while polynesian style music wafted thru the balmy

evening air. Guests arrived to be greeted by grass skirted beauties, presented with of a

leis and then escorted to the luau feast that had been prepared in their honor. The

attendees feasted on skewered pork medallions with braised tomatos, peppers, onions

and pineapple served on a bed of rice and drizzled with sweet and sour sauce. This

entree was accompanied by a baked sweet potatoe and garnished by a sprig of grapes.

Hawaiian style punch and pineapple upside-down cake as dessert complemented the

sumptious luau style feast.

Floating Flower Garden in Southfork's “Honolulu Hilton” Courtyard Lagoon (Photo by Pete Logoyda)

Some observant guests might have even noticed a new island floating in the Courtyard Lagoon containing a

roasted pig's head (paper mache') complete with ferns and fruit and more tiki torches.

After dinner our association president started our show portion of the evening by giving a definition of the

Hawaiian word “ALOHA”. She then prompted the guests to greet each other with the “word of the evening”. The

president then introduced the EMCEE for the evening who gave a short dissertation concerning the history of the

Hawaiian Islands.

The headliner then introduced the royal guests for the evening, King Hula-ka-wackee and his lovely princess who

were engaged for the evening to demonstrate the ancient Hawaiian dance of the HULA. After a brief lesson

performing the HULA to a typical island song, King Hula-ka-wackee and his princess then ventured into the

audience to pick out some “volunteers” to also dance. After fitting the new dance troup with grass skirts the

sound technician then put on the song “WIPEOUT” to the dancers surprise. That music was stopped and another

island melody was played and then audience voted for the best dancers using the Southfork Applause-o-meter to

reach a decisioon. All of the dancers were deemed “the best” and awarded prizes

After a couple of lame jokes by the emcee an impromptu HULA Hoop competition was staged with prizes going to

the persons who could manage to hula hoop the longest. A drawing was held and nice door prizes were awarded

to lucky winners. In typical Hawaiian Island Luau Tradition all good things must come to an end so the emcee

asked all of the guests to stand and form a circle to dance the traditional Hawaiian ALOHA dance. The guests were

surprised to learn that the dance was performed to the lyrics of the HOKEY-POKEY.

The evening ended with all of the guests saying good bye to each other using their new found Hawaiian word

“ALOHA” and then returning to their huts.

The Southfork Mobile Homeowners Association would like to thank the over thirty volunteers who worked diligently

to truly make this an event to remember.

RESTAURANT OF THE MONTH

GrillSmith

State Rd 56 & Bruce B Downs

2000 Piazza Ave, Bldg 4, Suite 100

Wesley Chapel, Fl

Hours 11am to 10pm (Lunch stops at 4pm) (Open 7 days a week)

Sunday Brunch 10am to 3pm

I have never visited this restaurant but have been told this is one great place to eat at and you’ve

probably heard the expression, “It’s right under your nose.” GrillSmith is a Tampa Bay chain (6

restaurants in Florida only). The restaurant is advertised as serving “New American Cuisine” which is a

term meaning “upscale, contemporary cooking.”

People who have been here knew of its existence, but didn’t think it would be anything special. They

admit they were very wrong and have wasted much time when they could have been enjoying

wonderful food.

The food is fresh, tasty and creatively served. The lunch portions are generous so can’t imagine needing

a larger portion. They have many interesting and various appetizers, salads and soups. Sandwiches

galore including ½ pound burgers, crab & shrimp, steak and many more…Have steak dinners, fish

dinners, and Pasta dinners and various side dishes.

Deciding what to order becomes a delightful challenge. “Signature Grillsmith dishes include: Firecracker

Shrimp, Grilled Tortilla Pizza, Seared Ahi Tuna Salad, Wild Mushroom Meatloaf, Black Angus Burgers,

Stoli Ravioli” and to much more to put in this article.

So hope you give this one a try and enjoy all the various specialty’s they have to offer!!!!

Recipe of the Month

• 8 saltine crackers or ¼ to ½ cup breadcrumbs

• 1 egg beaten

• 2 tbsp mayonnaise

• 1 tsp mustard

• 1/4 tsp Worcestershire

Preparation:

1. Carefully check the crab meat for any cartilage. Put meat in a bowl and set it aside.

2. Crush the saltine crackers very fine and mix with all the other ingredients. Gently fold in the

crab. Only mix enough to combine ingredients. You don't want to break up the crab into fine

shreds. Shape into 6 crab cakes, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

SOUTHFORK CHRISTMAS PARTY

Do you remember?

When we celebrated Christmas “just simply”!

Let’s do it again!!!!!!

Getting together with old and new friends to sing Christmas Carols, enjoy a cup of

Hot Cocoa and enjoy the taste of Christmas Cookies. Also, exchanging small gifts

and this will be held on Saturday, December 17th

at 7pm at the Club house.

Santa Claus will host a voluntary gift exchange, if you would like. Approximately,

$10.00 in value and please, mark the gift for a man, or for a woman if you wish to

participate.

This is the time of year for good fellowship and peace and what a time of year to

celebrate. With most of our snowbirds back, we in this community are a family

and we would like for everyone to come out and be together on this great festive

event!

My Christmas Card List!

I have a list of folks I know, all written in a book, and every year when Christmas

comes, I go and take a look.

That is when I realize these names are all a part, not of book they’re written in, but

of my very heart. For each name stands for someone who has crossed my path

sometime ago, and in that meeting they’ve become the rhythm in each rhyme.

While it may sound fantastic for me to make this claim, I really feel that I’m composed of each

remembered name.

And while you may not be aware of any special link, just meeting you has changed my life much more

than you may think.

For once I’ve met some body the years cannot erase, the memory of a pleasant word or of a friendly

face.

So, never think of my Christmas message or cards are just a mere routine of names upon a Christmas

list, or forgotten in between.

For when I send a Christmas card or a Christmas message that is addressed to you, it’s because you’re

on the list of folks I’m endeared to.

For I am but a total of the many folks I’ve met, and you happen to be one of those I prefer not to forget.

Whether I have known you for many years or just a few, in some way you have had a part in shaping

things I do.

Every year when Christmas comes I realize anew, the best gift life can offer is meeting folks like you.

So, may the spirit of Christmas that forevermore endures, leave its richest blessings in the hearts of you

and yours.

Merry Christmas Everyone,

Pat & Phyllis Grossi

Our desire is to treat our guests/neighbors with utmost respect. We operate on high standards here in

Southfork and believe in treating others as we would want to be treated ourselves.

Our wonderful community’s aim is to be considerate and to honor the values and opinions of our

guests and neighbors at all times. This creates a friendly and welcoming experience that can be

compared to no other.

This also brings to everyone’s attention that at all of our events which include card games and bingo etc.

we do invite outsiders as our guest’s and they should be treated with utmost respect and all jealousy

and negativity should be left at the door.

There should not be any negativity of any kind shown to anyone whether they are to another resident

or to our invited guests. We, as a community want to show we are respectable of others and want to

show how well we get along with our neighbors and friends and that they are always welcome.

So hence forth at anytime, if there is any negativity, it will be handled accordingly and no need to be

surprised when addressed. In this great world of ours today, there are wars and unrest because of

negativity and harassment, jealousy, pet peeves etc. and we as a group of adults should respect this

concern and want peace and tranquility.

Thanks to all,

The Association Officers and Directors and the Bingo Committee
