FROM THEBOARD OF DIRECTORS
By Bob McGough, HPCA Board President
The last month's Pines Article discussed some financial aspects of Food and Beverage and this months article will place a primary emphasis on the other
revenue generating amenity of Golf. To begin with, a study conducted by McGladrey of the Amenities Program at Heritage Pines in 2010 warned against focusing on both F&B and Golf as profit centers and as we have seen over the history of the community neither of these AMENITIES has produced a profit. Since 2010, Golf has been in a deficit position every year. The expense to revenue ration has been relatively consistent throughout these years. The expense to revenue in 2016 (1.29) was higher than the average from 2011-2015 (1.27). Much of the loss in revenue in 2016 has been attributed to two primary factors, rumors that the course was going to be closed for an extended period which resulted in a drop in annual packages and the poor condition of the course. The final loss for 2016 was $254,797. The losses in 2011, 2012, and 2014 were higher at $271,882, $262,797 and $272,861.
The golf course is a very important amenity for Heritage Pines, some professional management firms estimate that the golf course in HOA commu-nities represent as much as 30% of the value of your home. When McGladrey performed a study of HP amenities in 2010 they found that we were performing very well against industry standards from a financial perspective. If you compare the latest trend report from RSM (McGladrey) we are still performing well in relation to other communi-ties of our size and makeup. HP is experiencing some of the same issues that have caused golf participation nationwide to decline in the recent past. Our scenario however is somewhat more complicated since we have a captive audience without a high turnover rate. Our recent experi-ence shows that many of our residents have reached the age of reduced golf participation and many of our new residents while moving into a golfing community don't play golf. Add these residents to those unhappy with our course conditions and taking advantage of less costly continue to next page
FROM THE GENERAL MANAGERBy
By now most of you have probably seen the new email sent out each Tuesday. It is called the Heritage Pines TRUE. The TRUE stands for Truth-Respect-Unity-Engage. In the weekly email you will get information that is
the TRUTH. Hopefully by getting this information out to the community our residents will have more information that can generate more RESPECT for the decisions made by the Board, Committees, staff and other residents to improve Heritage Pines and bring more UNITY to our community. As our residents get more insight into the operations that make our community better and dispel the rumors that can harm our community maybe more will ENGAGE in volunteering for different committees and activities. The emails that we have received since this started have been overwhelming and we appreciate all the positive comments and support.
In my report in last month’s newsletter there was an error concerning the work to be done on the roughs of the golf course. It said that the roughs were being re-sodded and it should have said re-sprigged. In all the communication last month leading up to the work being done is was stated correctly. We are very pleased that the work was done in less than 10 days and with the rain and heat that we had in late August and should have for another month the roughs will be much improved.
For the past six months we have been involved with contacting and interviewing companies about upgrading our website. Kim Norton has done a great job in identifying what would be necessary to have more information made available to our residents. By looking into the web integration for the Back

courses in the nearby area and the result is less play. Management has initiated action to reverse these trends with additional incentive programs and a major effort to bring the course back to a higher level of excellence. I would guess the majority of golfers would agree that the condition of the course has significantly improved in the last 24 months due to the efforts of John Burns and the management staff. Loving attention, new tee boxes and attacking the weed problems have resulted in visible results. A long prolonged dry period slowed the efforts. More annual packages were sold in 2017 than last year and Ricky's Friday lesson and seminar with 9 rounds of golf has been very successful. The Board will be working with the golf associations and the Golf Committee to improve revenues and at the same time holding the line on expenses. This is your course, play it, enjoy it and help take care of it.

Now that the Association Sustainability Committee has been approved they will become active in the marketing opportunities in all areas that will enhance our profile on line. More details will become available in the next couple of months.
Just one more thing. As residents begin to come back over the next couple of months, please be aware there will be more golf carts and traffic on our roads. Slow down and comply with the speed limits and stop at all stop signs.
ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENTMember Charge (Jonas) System
We always ask that you bring your member charge card to the club for purchases. This just helps prevent charge errors. If you do not have your card, please do not sign your charge until you have verified it has correct member information at the top. Also as mentioned before, our Jonas system separates your HOA fees and club charges, so we need to have them paid separately. We appreciate that most monthly accounts are current and if not it is usually a one time over sight and we take that into consideration. Please keep in mind club charges not paid by the 20th of following month can be assessed a $25 late fee as well as HOA fees not paid in the month they are due for.
2017 HOA Fees
The monthly assessment amount is $185 per month for Heritage Pines Community Association. Many of the village assessments have changed as well. Please check with your village manager if you have any questions on that amount. You do not have to do anything to change monthly automatic debit amount if you are set up for ACH. It will be processed at the new amount.

GOLF COURSE AND COMMONGROUNDS MAINTENANCE NEWS
Hard to believe that school is back in session and that fall is fast approaching! With the imminent change in season it's time to start wrapping up our summer growing season projects. We are in the process of sprigging thin areas in our roughs. This project entails spraying out existing turf and weeds, then scalping those areas to prepare for the cultivator. The sprigs are planted at the rate of 500 bushels per acre and are then fertilized and watered heavily for a couple of weeks until properly established. Sorry for the inconvenience to play but these areas will remain wetter than normal until the sprigs are established. We will make every effort to minimize disruption. Sprigged areas will be flagged and we appreciate your vigilance in avoiding these areas with golf carts. We are sprigging with Tif Tuf bermudagrass that has proven to thrive in our area. We have used it in several areas of the rough to great success. Elsewhere weed spraying continues and we have increased the fertility in those areas to help facilitate faster turf recovery. I'm happy to report that overall the course has shown nice improvement in 17. We look forward to continuing that trend as we move into the fall.
Phase 2 of the Common Grounds project continues as we await
the return of bids from our vendors. These should be received shortly and we will move forward with our Islands leading from the Front Entrance to the Clubhouse.
Today's featured plant is the Crossandra. Also known as Orange Marmalade. These plants are hearty, drought tolerant and a great choice for late summer or early fall planting. Glossy green foliage and vibrant orange flowers are bound to show well in any landscape. Availabilty is good this time of year so why not spruce up your landscape? We have planted them on twelve tee area near the stairs. That's all for now. Enjoy the rest of your summer and we look forward to seeing you in the community!

LIFESTYLE COMMITTEEBy We had a wonderful meeting with many new ideas tossed around.
First we have a Fall Festival planned for November 10th in the pavilion. This is a casual fest with bring your own food and drinks. It's basically a Jam Session of anyone with musical talent in HP. So, get your village together and bring your guitars, banjos, and fiddles, spoons, or whatever along with your chairs for some “down home” fun.
Also, mark your 2018 calendars for our annual St. Jude Auction which will be held in the PAC on March 10th. We will also be hosting a St. Jude Golf Tournament, date for this to be announced soon. Thanks to Lynn Aigotti for volunteering to be chairperson of this fantastic event. Many of our gracious ladies have volunteered to help Lynn with this heartwarming event. Lynn has met with the gals from St. Jude and many wonderful plans are in the works.
The HP Health Fair will be January 17th in the PAC. Elaine Sedlak and Mike Russell are working together on this super event as well as Paula McGough, Alarine Knight and Jan Martinelli. Plans are being made for a wonderful and informative day. Watch for more news to come your way about this event.
Packages For The Troops
At this time we are stocked up with goodies in the boxes, but we need the money to ship the boxes. It cost us $17.35 per box…..so could you help us out and donate just enough money for one box. Thanks, as always!!
Get your best running and walking shoes out… Hitting the Pavement is scheduled for October 13th. This great fundraiser is to raise money for cancer research. Plans are still in the works, with hopefully help from The Cancer Society. I have received good news from our “cheerleaders” from last year… they will be on hand this year with even more outlandish antics. Can't wait to see what these fabulous girls have cooked up!!!
Pies, Pies and more Pies!!! Our HP Craft Fair on November 4th with the Lifestyle Committee selling home baked pies, just in time for Thanksgiving… the plan is to bake for two days and sell FAST, FAST, FAST!!!!
The HP Golf Cart Parade is scheduled for December 14th. This year the parade will start and end in our new pavilion with music, cookies and snacks. Get your thinking caps on… lets see what new ideas you can come with to decorate your golf carts. We need residents to cheer on our parade as well… start now to get your village geared up to send our carts on their way!
New ideas for Gingerbread Houses are in the works for the holidays. See the flyer in the glass showcase for details. Part 1 –
Nancy Niarchos, Chairperson Lifestyle Committee
COMMITTEE/MEMORIALTREE PROGRAM
By Linda O'Leary
The Community/Memorial Tree Program provides the opportunity for our residents to purchase a tree in memory of a loved one or friend. Trees may also be purchased to honor a person or because you wish to donate one in your name to beautify our community. They can also be purchased as a gift, perhaps a birthday or anniversary idea. Prices vary according to the type and size of tree. Residents may choose a general location for a donated tree which can be on the golf course, along the main boulevard or in other areas of the community. The final placement of each tree will be approved by Heritage Pines maintenance facilities. Trees will be planted during the months of February/March and September/October. Please plan your purchase during the preceding months. The Community/Memorial Tree Program is headed by Linda O'Leary. Please contact Linda at 819-9207 for pricing information.
A map showing the location of all donated trees is located in the hallway by the Magnolia Room. Also, there is a book at the front desk of the Clubhouse listing information about the many trees planted throughout our community. Each page includes the names of the honoree(s), sponsor(s), tree location and type of tree. Residents may look through this book as desired.
Directions, Samples and Supply List – November 6th, Part 2 Build your Gingerbread House – November 17th. Sign up in the lobby. Thanks to Hope Botterbusch for volunteering to teach this class.
We are so lucky to be working on bringing a hair stylist into HP to show us the newest products and styles. Elaine Sedlak's friend “George” will be here October 20th. Plan on attending this wonderful “girls” day out.
Rock painting will be taught by Denise Mallek on October 3rd from 11:00 – 1:00 in the Craft Room.
Watch the newsletters and emails for more news coming from The Lifestyle Committee. We hope to make living in Heritage Pines, fun, informative and just down right fun.
Our next meeting is September 14th at 10:00 in the Magnolia Room. Come join us.

ARCHITECTURAL CONTROLCOMMITTEE
By Mike Miller, ACC Chairman
Now that the summer sun is beating down we remind homeowners to maintain their mailbox. Referring to the Architectural Control Manual.
10.12 Mailbox
“A standard size black metal mailbox with a red flag is used in the community. When replacing the mailbox post, each maintained and self-maintained village will decide upon one of the following colors for their mailbox posts: muted green, black, or brown.
Protective material may be installed no higher than eight (8) inches from the ground around the mailbox post to protect it from weed eaters and must be painted the same color as the post.
Plantings are not permitted around the mailbox post to avoid injury from insects and other pests. Reflectors are prohibited. There are no plans for a change in mailboxes at this time.”
Many mailboxes and mailbox posts need to be repainted or replaced.
10.10 House Numbers
“House numbers must also appear on the mailbox post 1” in height and in white which is used throughout the community.”
Many mailbox posts are missing numbers.

c. Your address within Heritage Pines
d. The event you want tickets for

Are you out of town, travelling, or just plain busy when tickets for a major event go on sale? No worries, Heritage Pines is now proudly offering a “Will-Call” procedure for those residents who are unable to purchase tickets the day they go on sale. The events and shows at Heritage Pines have become incredibly popular. So much so, that we are booking many events and shows with back to back performances. Tickets are selling on the first day they go on sale! It goes without saying, that the Clubhouse has become the hub of social activity within our community.
g. And most importantly, you must include the following phrase in your email: “Through this email, I authorize Heritage Pines to charge my member account for the number of tickets requested. I understand that this charge will show on my monthly statement.”
2. Click Send! – it’s that easy...
3. Now, here are a few follow-ups:
a. Will-call tickets will be purchased AFTER all residents who have “lined-up” on the day of and received their tickets.
b. Only ten tickets can be purchased per resident account.
c. Tickets will be purchased in the order they are received.
d. We cannot accommodate residents who wish to be seated with anyone else, tickets will be sold to the first available seats.
4. Tickets can be picked up at the front desk at a time that is convenient for you!
We hope this added service comes as a benefit to you all!

RSEBy Joy Stefany, Handicap Chair
“Two basic premises underlie the USGA Handicap System, namely that each player will try to make the best score at every hole in every round, regardless of where the round is played, and that the player will post every acceptable round for peer review. The player and the player's Handicap Committee have joint responsibility for adhering to these premises.”
That being said, I want to remind players to POST all eligible scores! It is the Players' responsibility to POST all acceptable scores, whether you play at Heritage Pines or any other course. Please remember that ALL of the tees at Heritage Pines are rated for both Ladies and Men.
• If you play quota points and pick up after not making a point, record your most likely score – not to exceed your ESC.
• If you have an 18-hole handicap and play nine holes, record the nine-hole score. Let the GHIN system keep track of the nine-hole scores and combine to make an 18-hole score. It does NOT matter if it's 2 on the front, 2 on the back or 1 front and 1 back. This is true if you play either the front or back twice in one day.
• If you have a nine-hole handicap and play 18 holes, record the front and back separately.
• If 13 or more holes are played, an 18-hole round MUST be posted. Record par plus any handicap strokes that you are entitled to receive on the holes not played.
• If 7-12 holes have been played, post a nine-hole score. If seven or eight holes are played, record par plus any strokes for the holes not played. You must play at least seven holes on the front or back in order to post a nine-hole score.
The annual Village Golf Tournament is coming up. This is always a fun event where the villages compete in a net game. We not only verify that the participants have a USGA approved handicap but that the handicap is current. That means that you MUST post all eligible scores. In the past, it was determined that some of the players were required to play 'scratch' as the GHIN handicap was inactive, players were posting erroneous information to the scoring record or not posting scores. This puts the golfer and the player's team at a disadvantage when an accurate handicap is not available.
If you have any questions, please contact a member of the Handicap Committee. And remember POST YOUR SCORES.
MEN’S GOLF ASSOCIATIONOn Sunday, August 6th, during the tax free school supplies sale, Immediate Past President Scott Taveau and his crew proceeded to Walmart to purchase back packs and school supplies for 150 needy kids who attend Shady Hills K-4 School.

We are able to provide these supplies and Thanksgiving dinners due to the generosity of the Ladies and Men Golf Groups.
One of our newest members of the MGA Norm Pritchett got his first Hole-in-One at Heritage Pines on Thursday 10 August but third overall (not bad for someone who has only been playing for ten years). Norm was playing with Jim Montgomery, Jim Rankin and Steve Lizakowski. He was hitting from the green tee on hole 17 using a 7 iron to cover the 141 yards.

Two players from each team will be matched against the other team player closest to his handicap using the full handicapped system.

The MGA has obtained a unique gift for each member of the winning team. If you are not playing in the tournament, but wish to attend the luncheon, please do not put your name on the sign-up sheet, just let the pro shop know your intentions.

NINERS LADIES’ GOLF
18 HOLE ‘PAR’TICULARS
Very soon, Niner seasonal players will be drifting back from their northern homes. It's always great to see all the smiling faces again and to pick up where we left off with games and social events for the new season. We'll keep you posted.....
The Niner trip to Mission Inn will be here before you know it … October 24th and 25th. Your balance of $176 is due by September 8th. Checks made out to HPNLGA may be given to Dianne Estensen or Cathy Stoehs.
A nine-hole invitational has been offered by the Timber Greens golf course. It will take place on September 19th and the cost is $24 for golf and dinner. You are asked to be there by 2:30 - play will start at 3 p.m.- ending at approximately 5 p.m. A light dinner and social will follow. Please contact Cathy Stoehs for more information.
The Niners' Mary Giella Golfin' for Kids annual tournament, usually played in October each year, has been put on hold for the duration. It has been decided, with the plethora of charity tournaments being held in Heritage Pines, the quest for a fresh approach is needed. You will be hearing more on this issue in future postings.
Please don't forget your on-going support for the Mary Giella School kids. Christmas isn't that far away, and there is a never-ending need for food for these families. If you can't remember school or food donations on a timely basis, a cash gift is always welcome . Maggie Shell will accept your generosity at any time and in any fashion. To say it is appreciated, is an understatement....thank you!
Our July Nine and Dine gathering was cancelled due to rain. However, winners (for excellent attendance) were Joyce and Gary Johnson and Dottie and Ken Ritchie. Please note that Sunday start time has been changed to 1 p.m. for the month of September to avoid late afternoon thunderstorms.

August has been a quiet month in Heritage Pines as many of our members have been away, or have chosen not to brave the heat and humidity of a Florida summer. On August 24th, the League was invited to play at Southern Hills, and enjoy lunch, by the Florida Tax Advisors. This course is beautiful and challenging so it was a terrific day.

The Niner Board is once again open for nominations to fill all positions. A nomination committee, led by Rhonda Gibson, will meet in September to further discuss the issue. Slight changes are in the works which may make it more amenable for people to serve. Please consider giving your time and talents to any one of these positions, or to join a committee. We see a lot of new, eager faces out there – this is your moment to show us “whatcha got”!
Due to weather conditions and golf course closings, there was only one game to report for the month of July: On July 25th, our own Marge Warren won the prize for the only Birdie that day! Whoo-hoo!! Way to go Marge !
Schedule for September:
Sept. 5 Individual Stroke Play – Back nine
Sept. 12 Throw out two holes
Sept. 19 Individual Stroke Play – Front nine
Sept. 26 Even holes (½ handicap)
Don't forget your thoughts and prayers for members and their families who are experiencing unsettling times just now. A kind word or two and a hug can do wonders for a friend.
With the end of a sultry summer in sight – we hope – keep those fans whirring and those ice cubes tinkling... can't be too long now.

Q: Recently a popup message appeared on my computer screen telling me my computer was infected with a virus. The message contained a number for me to call for assistance. When I called the number the person requested I allow them to access my computer remotely. I did this but became suspicious and terminated the call. Since the message continued to popup I called you to remove the popup and determine if my computer had a virus. Was I speaking to an actual support agent or was this a scam?
A: This was definitely a scam. As far as I know, none of the antivirus programs alerts with a phone number to call when a problem occurs. If an actual virus is detected the program will display a message indicating that a virus has been detected and report on the success of the repair.
Often, a fake popup message will claim to be from the manufacturer of your computer, the provider of the antivirus software you are using or Microsoft. It is likely that your computer doesn't have a virus at all. The only virus is the popup message itself which prevents you from using your computer until it is removed. If either of the above happens to you I recommend shutting down your computer immediately even if it means pressing and holding the POWER Button to force a shutdown. Do not attempt to close the message.
If you ever allow someone access your computer remotely and feel they may not be who they say they are, you should have your computer checked for viruses and other monitoring software. This type of software may be used for unauthorized

access to your computer without your knowledge or permission.
Similarly, if you receive an unsolicited call from someone claiming to be from Microsoft, Symantec or Hewlett Packard telling you that they have detected problems on your computer and want to access your computer hang up immediately. This is DEFINITELY a scam.
In recent months, several of my HP clients didn't follow my advice and were talked into allowing a random caller, who claimed to be from Microsoft, access to their computers. When they refused to pay for bogus support they later discovered that their computers were password locked which prevented them from logging into their computers. Unfortunately, I was unable to remove the lock requiring a reinstall of Windows and the loss of all document, photos etc. that weren't previously saved on an external backup. The scenario is as follows:
The resident either placed or received a call with someone who claims to be from either Microsoft or Windows. The person claims that the resident's computer has a serious problem that requires immediate attention. The person then tells the resident how to bring up an Event Log file and uses this information as evidence that the PC will soon fail to work correctly. The person requests remote access to resolve the problem. The resident allows the remote access and is told that there will be a fee to correct the problem. When the resident was informed of the cost they told the person they weren't interested and hung up the phone. What they didn't know was that the person had already installed a virus on the computer that will lock the computer on the next reboot.
The resident called me when they couldn't get into their computer. After I looked at the computer, I had to inform the resident that without the password I could not remove the virus. To restore the computer to operation I had to do a full install of Windows and all documents and files that were not previously saved were lost.
Be advised that no legitimate business will ever call you about a problem with your computer. These calls are always scams. Under no circumstances should you allow an unknown person to remotely access your computer. My advice to everyone is to hang up on the caller.

Florida Do Not Call Lists I continue to receive nuisance calls from solicitors, charities and scammers. Is there anything I can do to reduce the number of nuisance calls I receive daily? As the Primary and General Election get nearer the number of these calls is increasing.
A: If your phone service is Frontier FIOS a free solution is available that will eliminate Robocallers, Telemarketers, Charities, Debt Collectors and Junk Faxes. This service was definitely beneficial during the previous election cycle.
The Nomorobo service is free but requires your phone provider to offer the Simultaneous Ring feature. To sign up visit the Nomorobo Website (www.nomorobo.com). You will receive an email with instructions on creating a free account and to setup the service on phone. The setup can be done via the FIOS website (https://frontier.com/account#/voice) or via the TV Set Top Box Settings Menu selecting FIOS Digital Voice Calling Features option.
The service is available immediately after activation. When an unwanted call is received, your phone will ring ONE TIME and disconnect before the Second ring. The website allows you to report calls that haven't been previously reported. For anyone who actually want to receive calls from Political or Charitable organizations these call types can be enabled via the web site.
Unfortunately, if your phone service is provided by Brighthouse, which doesn't offer Simultaneous Ring, you won't be able to signup for Nomorobo. I suggest that you call Brighthouse and request they offer this service.
If you previously signed up for this service before Frontier acquired the FIOS business from Verizon you may need to redo the signup process.

The phone number is 352-293-2015 and it is best to call first as they have variable hours. They really help women get back on their feet and into a productive place in society. When a woman has an interview, My Career Closet will dress her in an appropriate outfit for an interview. If she gets the job they will provide five outfits that are appropriate for her work.
In order to help this most worthwhile cause, The Angels have arranged for a one day drive for Heritage Pines residents to easily donate to the Career Closet. The date is Sunday, October 8th from 1 to 3 p.m. in the Craft Room. Items to be donated should be clean and free of needed repairs. All sizes are needed, and requested items include suits, slacks, blouses, jackets, tops, dresses, shoes, purses, and jewelry. In other words anything that would be appropriate for any type of job interview.

Ginny Grandpre: 727-697-0955, Lynn Aigotti: 727-862-6404

CAT SITTERSWe will devote this article to helpful hints about what to do for your cat if you take a vacation. First, you don't want to take your cat on a cruise or a long trip north. Cats are creatures of habit and prefer no change in their environment. So, leave your cat at home and get a cat sitter to care for it. Volunteers can provide it with fresh food, fresh water, and a cleaned litter box daily.
Help by preparing a list of foods and activities to entertain the cat. Leave a piece of your clothing, an unwashed T-shirt or sock, for the cat to nap on. Cats feel more comfortable if they can smell the scent of their owner. Leave doors open so they can roam their house. Leave a low light on somewhere. Remove breakable objects that can be knocked over. Leave some blinds open so they can see the outside. And, of course, leave out their toys, blankets, or anything belonging to the cat available for its use.
For your comfort leave a phone number where you can be reached if something happens or is needed for the cat. Leave your vet's name and number. The more medical information about the cat you can leave the better. And lastly, know that your cat will be taken good care of but will still miss you. If you need a volunteer cat sitter, please call Minette Salomon at 973-651-7589, or Rusty Peacock at 352-232-5300 and you will receive help.

Starting September 12th we will begin a new eight week study by Chip Ingram the senior pastor of Venture Christian Church in Los Gatos, California, and teaching pastor and president of Living on the Edge, an international teaching and discipleship ministry. The study is called “The Real God – How He Longs For You To See Him”.
When we join Chip in this in-depth study of the seven attributes of God – His goodness, sovereignty, holiness, wisdom, justice, love and faithfulness – we will see Him in a whole new light. The study will change the way you think about God, yourself, and others. We will learn to pray and live with a deep peace and a renewed purpose as you see Him as He longs to be seen.
Each week we will view a video by Chip Ingram with discussion afterward. A workbook is available by calling Evie Clark at 727-868-3454. Plan to join us for study and fellowship on Tuesday mornings at 9:00 until 11:00 in the Magnolia Room of the Clubhouse.

We meet every Saturday in the craft room from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Even if you have never done ceramics before you can learn. Some of the ladies have years of experience and we all can help anybody that is new to the class. Something new to the class is that we now have a small inventory of items for sale at a reasonable price. These are what are called “bisque,” which means they have been cleaned and fired. Ready to be painted. You can paint them two different ways. You can use acrylic paint with a clear topcoat for protection, bought from Wal Mart or some of the craft stores like Michael's. The other is to use a special ceramic paint that needs to be fired after you have finished. This paint has to be bought from a ceramic store; we can give you the names and addresses. If you have any questions stop in on a Saturday morning. Meet the ladies and get some information, or you can call Jackie Ciesla at 727-861-1965. Everyone is welcome. Hope to see some new faces.

Many residents will be returning from summer travel during September, bringing with them many books they have read throughout the summer months. A great number of those books will be showing up in our Heritage Pines Library as donations are made to our Library. Take the time this month to check in and see what new books are appearing on our shelves and take one or two home with you.
Paperback books do not need to be returned and we are on the honor system for hardcover books - no due date! Hardcover fiction books are on the right-hand side of the Library and non-fiction books are on the left-hand side. Paperbacks are also on the left-hand side as you enter the Library from the hall.
We are unable to accept donations of magazines, puzzles, catalogs, and books of limited appeal. Please contact Mary Lou Ballmann (862-1438) or Susan Bell (868-4261) if you have any questions or concerns.

TENNIS NEWSBy Bill Tory
O.K., have you ever been in a tennis match and your opponent hits a ball, you call it OUT and World War III begins. Your opponent shouts out in a voice that would wake the dead, "what do you mean out, that ball was clearly in". Well, not only were you within plain sight of the ball and could easily see that it missed the line, your opponent was on a dead run in the opposite direction and about as far away as he/she could be. After some back and forth about who needs to see their eye doctor and what asylum they have escaped from, you both think that you are right and you know the game needs to progress. What do you do? Who can be right in this situation?
U.S.T.A. Rules---Making Calls
1. Player makes calls on own side of net. A player calls all shots landing on, or aimed at, the player's side of the net.
2. Opponent gets benefit of doubt. A player should always give the opponent the benefit of any doubt. When a match is played without officials, the players are responsible for making decisions, particularly for line calls. There is a subtle difference between player decisions and those of an on-court official. An official impartially resolves a problem involving a call, whereas a player is guided by the principle that any doubt must be resolved in favor of an opponent. A player in attempting to be scrupulously honest on line calls frequently will keep a ball in play that might have been out or that the player discovers too late was out. Even so, the game is much better played this way.
3. Ball touching any part of line is good. If any part of a ball touches a line, the ball is good. A ball 99% out is still 100% good. A player shall not call a ball out unless the player clearly sees space between where the ball hits and a line.
4. Ball that cannot be called out is good. Any ball that cannot be called out is considered to be good. A player may not claim a let on the basis of not seeing a ball. One of tennis' more infuriating moments occurs after a long hard rally when a player makes a clean placement and an opponent says: “I'm not sure if it was good or out. Let's play a let.” Remember, it is each player's responsibility to call all balls landing on, or aimed at, the player's side of the net. If a ball cannot be called out with certainty, it is good. When a player says an opponent's shot was really out but offers to replay the point to give the opponent a break, it seems clear that the player actually doubted that the ball was out.
5. Either partner may make calls in doubles. Although either doubles partner may make a call, the call of a player looking down a line is more likely to be accurate than that of a player looking across a line.
6. All points are treated same regardless of their importance. All points in a match should be treated the same. There is no justification for considering a match point differently from a first point.
7. Requesting opponent's help. When an opponent's opinion is requested and the opponent gives a positive opinion, it must be accepted. If neither player has an opinion, the ball is considered good. Aid from an opponent is available only on a call that ends a point.
8. Out calls reversed. A player who calls a ball out shall reverse the call if the player becomes uncertain or realizes that the ball was good. The point goes to the opponent and is not replayed. However, when a receiver reverses a fault call on a serve that hit the net, the server is entitled to two serves.
9. Player calls own shots out. With the exception of the first serve, a player should call out the player's own shots if the player clearly sees the ball out regardless of whether requested to do so by an opponent. The prime objective in making calls is accuracy. All players should cooperate to attain this objective.
10. Partners' disagreement on calls. If one partner calls the ball out and the other partner sees the ball good, the ball is good. It is more important to give opponents the benefit of the doubt than to avoid possibly hurting a partner's feelings. The tactful way to achieve the desired result is to tell a partner quietly of the mistake and then let the partner concede the point. If a call is changed from out to good, the principles of Code § 8 apply.

I know that is a lot of information, so you can see it's not always as simple as it seems! The main thing to remember is that we are all friends and we are out here to have fun.
In other news, our Lobster Elite ll ball machine was down for a few days this August while the wheels responsible for throwing the ball was ordered and replaced. The water cooler between courts three and four that has been here since the tennis courts first opened, was replaced in August with a brand new one. We are still working with maintenance on replacing a lite on court two and getting the water cooler repaired between courts one and two.
Have you played tennis in the past but feel those days are gone because you aren't as young as you used to be? Have you never played tennis and wish you could be out there too but worry about not holding up your end? Perhaps you are on top of your game. We have competitive players to challenge you as well. We have GOOD NEWS for you! We are ALL getting older and we all wish we could play as we used to. Our games are slower. Our games are less competitive. Our games are very social. We just have lots of fun being active. And we are looking for YOU to try us out! Membership dues are $10.00 per year. Our courts are soft, easy on the joints, all four courts are groomed daily. All courts have lights for night use. Ball machine available for use (with training). There are many opportunities for scheduled play:
Men's Open Play for all levels on Monday and Thursday mornings at 8 a.m.
Men's League Play on Monday evenings at 6 p.m.
Women's League Play on Monday mornings
Women's Open Play for all levels on Wednesdays
Mixed Doubles Play on Sunday evenings
For pickup games, check the tennis reservation book at the front desk to make sure your court time does not conflict with existing reservations. To get started, contact, Bill Tory at 586-873-9697 or [email protected] or any tennis board member.

WATER AEROBICS: THE NEWWAVE OF WELLNESS?
Finding a cardio activity that you enjoy is an important part of sticking to a weekly fitness routine and achieving your short and long-term wellness goals. These days, many older adults are staving off workout boredom by jumping into the swimming pool.
If you've always had a love for water, aqua aerobics, also known as water aerobics, is a great way to get a full body workout while also taking it easy on your joints.
Water aerobics exercise routines typically involve cardio and strength-training exercises traditionally performed on dry land, only they're done in the safety of the water. This includes walking, jogging, jumping and even using free weights in the pool.
Water provides more resistance than air so your muscles have to
work harder in the pool to push against the resistance than they do when you perform land-based exercises. Despite the extra effort, little stress is put on your
joints, making aqua aerobics especially attractive to those who suffer from joint-related pain or are recovering from a joint injury or joint replacement surgery.
With the rising popularity of water aerobics, class variations like aqua Zumba, water pilates and pool-based tai chi programs are popping up at pools and community centers across the country. Contact a pool in your area to find out what classes they offer. And if you're looking for a real challenge, aqua cycling, which is where you pedal an exercise or spin bike in the pool (called a submersible ergocycle which is pedaling on you noodle ) is a great way to incorporate resistance training into your exercise regime.
6 Health Benefits of Water Aerobics
1. Water aerobics build strong bones. Experts agree that regular exercise promotes bone health and is key for the prevention of osteoporosis, a disease that effects 50% of women and 25% of men over age 50. According to the Aquatic Exercise Association (AEA), shallow-water aquatic exercises can help build and maintain bone mass. The AEA recommends doing water aerobics exercises in conjunction with walking, stair climbing and strength training for best results.
2. Water aerobics is good for those with low back pain. The AEA maintains that deep-water training (which is when you have no contact with the pool floor) can benefit those with low back pain because “deep water is a non-impact environment and significantly reduces the compressive load on the spine. Deep water is also very effective for training the core muscles, which is important for proper alignment, good posture and back health.”
Fitness trainer Marietta Mehanni agrees that postural issues are well supported in the water. “Clients often comment on how much better and taller they feel as the water actually creates traction in the joints, including the vertebra of the spine.”
3. Water aerobics reduce arthritis pain. The Arthritis Foundation encourages water exercises, asserting that something as simple as walking in water can help arthritis patients move easier with less joint pain, and feel stronger and more flexible. In fact, the foundation's AEA-managed aquatic program offers, “classes designed specifically for individuals with arthritis, related rheumatic diseases and musculoskeletal conditions,” says Julie See, AEA's director of education.
People with arthritis or pain aren't the only ones who can benefit from water exercise. Doing at least two and a half hours of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise—like water aerobics—can help protect you against heart disease, diabetes, and other conditions. Bonus: It can improve your mood.
4. Water aerobics help with recovery after hip replacement surgery. In one past study researchers found that an inpatient aquatic physiotherapy program had a positive effect on early recovery of hip strength after joint replacement surgery. The

positive effects largely stemmed from the buoyancy of water, which reduced body weight up to 80%, placing less stress on healing joints.
5. Water aerobics burn calories. While water aerobics exercises may burn fewer calories than a land-based workout, you'll still reap rewards. According to statistics, “a 60-minute workout in the water can burn between 350 to 500 calories.” Deep water aerobics can burn up to 800 calories.
6. Water aerobics' group environment is a great motivator. There's no question water aerobics is a social experience. An AARP survey studying the exercise attitude and behaviors of adults between the ages of 50 to 79 found that older adults are more likely to maintain their fitness programs if they'd committed to an exercise group or trainer.
Jacqueline Pattman, national chair for the Aquatic Therapy Association of Chartered Physiotherapists agrees with the findings. “The peer support that people gain by working with others in the water is very valuable in ensuring they stay motivated and have a sense of belonging.”
Aqua Aerobics Tips
Before you dive in, here are two tips to consider:
1. Wear water aerobics shoes. While the impact on weight-bearing joints is greatly reduced in the pool, you will still experience some impact stress. Mehanni suggests wearing water aerobic shoes or non-slip socks for added cushioning, shock absorption and comfort. “If you require arch and foot support in everyday life, you'll likely require the same when exercising in the pool,” she says.
2. Stay hydrated. Though water cools the body more effectively than air, you will still perspire during vigorous water aerobics routines. Because of this fluid loss, Pattman recommends drinking water after your pool session. Re-hydrating will also help prevent overheating, muscle cramps and heat stroke.

Rick Myers, the Director of our fall play, has selected 'Fox on the Fairway” by Ken Ludwig. This is a hilarious and furious paced farce poking fun at Americans' obsession with winning by using a stick to hit a little ball around a great lawn…otherwise known as golf. It takes place in the lounge of the Quail Valley Golf Club prior to a heated match with their archrivals Crouching Squirrels who have won the tournament the past five years. The Golf Director of Quail Valley is on the hot seat and might lose his

Tai Chi and Qigong are also an exercise option at Heritage Pines. Although it seems very slow and easy, it is deceiving. Come join us on Tuesday or Thursday morning for a different kind of exercise, one that will exercise your internal as well as your external muscles. Tai chi opens joints and introduces a gentle range of motion that helps you in all of your everyday activities.

Phyllis Poirier has been a line dance instructor for over 25 years and she makes it fun and easy to learn. Our group learns many new dances while getting a good work out. Each week we review the dances from previous weeks and usually learn a new one. This format makes it so easy to learn and to fit in with the group no matter whether you are a seasoned dancer or a beginner. Most of us stay for lunch after the class.
Join your friends and neighbors every Thursday morning in the PAC room from 10:30 a.m. until 11:30 a.m. Men and women welcome. The cost is only $5.00. Make sure to put the date on your calendar. We look forward to seeing you there.
If you are unsure whether line dancing is for you, we invite you to come on Thursday mornings and watch what we are learning. There is no charge to observe. Then decide whether you would like to join us next time.
We are exploring the possibility of a beginner's class starting in mid-October depending on the interest.
Please call either Phyllis at 813-523-1675 or Linda at 727-836-0986 if you are interested.
We start to welcome back our snowbirds with the Show Palace production of "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers" on Saturday, October 28th. New ticket price is $43.50 each to include show, dinner buffet and all taxes. Gratuities are extra. Full payment is due 30 days prior to the show. The closing show for the 2017 season at Show Palace will be the Christmas show on December 16th. We have another show booked for the same date. "Love Never Dies" is the continuation of Phantom of the Opera. A suggestion was made that if you are going to that show and want to have dinner, why not dine at the Show Palace and see both shows. Let me know if there's interest.
Please check the theatre book for the latest information of shows at Straz Performing Arts Center and Ruth Eckerd Hall. We must have a $25 deposit when you sign up for any of these shows.
For Friday night entertainment, Show Palace has booked some one night only shows. There's too many to list so check this out in the theatre book. "The George & Gracie: Together Again" performance on Friday, November 3rd will be a dinner show for $44.

job if his team fails to win this time. A substantial dollar bet is made between the Golf Directors of both clubs that, to ensure victory, causes the Quail Valley Golf Director to recruit a scratch golfer only to find out at the last minute he changed his mind and is playing for the Crouching Squirrels. Panic sets in because of the huge bet at stake. You must see the show to learn how it all plays out in the end.
Members of the cast of six (three male/three female) are a zany bunch composed of two artless types, a clownish dolt, a nervous Nellie, a beautiful older woman and a battle-ax matron all dressed in outlandish golf attire.
The show is filled with mistaken identities, slamming of doors and romantic shenanigans that will keep you laughing. Don't miss this performance especially if you love the game of golf and the social aspects associated with it.
Auditions for the play will be held on Thursday, August 31 at 1 p.m. in the PAC. For those of you who might be out of town but wish to audition, contact Rick at [email protected]. Rehearsals will be on Mondays and Thursdays 1-4 p.m. beginning September 14. Show time is scheduled for the weekend of November 24-26.
Remember, auditions for our plays are open to all resident's not just members of the Drama Club. Should you audition as a non-member and be selected for a part, then you will be asked to pay your $5 annual membership fee. Geez…. a great way to become famous for only a few bucks! Think of the future acclaim from your family, friends and neighbors!!!

Please note summer hours as noted above. The Saturday morning class has been canceled until October. A new Beginner class will start in early November, so for now the Tuesday morning class is an Intermediate class, and the Thursday morning class is for advanced students and Qigong. However, we welcome all new students to either class.

The Sportsman's Club meets on the second Thursday of each month in the Magnolia Room at 11:00 a.m. This meeting usually lasts about an hour. Afterward, some enjoy lunch together in the Clubhouse. Our next meeting is scheduled for Thursday, September 14th.
If you haven't been checking out the Sportsman's Club Website (available from the Heritage Pines site) you have been missing a great way to keep abreast of club activities. Check it out, you may be surprised.
Club activities include: bocce, pistol and rifle target shooting, clay target shooting, horseshoes, fresh and salt water fishing, biking, canoeing and kayaking. Everyone with an interest in these and other related activities is welcome to join us.
Due to the summer temperatures, bocce play was suspended during August with plans for play to resume once the weather cools. Stay tuned and prepare to come out, bring a partner and join in once play begins again. Observers and players of all skill levels are welcome.
Those who shoot trap, skeet, five stand and crazy quail, form groups and on Wednesday mornings, carpool to either the Silver Dollar Shooters Club in Odessa, or to Robinson Ranch in Dunnellon. Congratulations to Harry Koerner for breaking all 26 clay birds while shooting Crazy Quail at the Dollar on July 13th.
Car pools to the trap and skeet fields usually leave the community around 8:30 a.m. Silver Dollar and Robinson each offer traditional clay target shooting in addition to other shotgun games like crazy quail, and five-stand which are also great fun and a good test of shotguning skill. Those needing assistance with transportation can call on any club member. Rifle & pistol target shooters usually shoot at The Phoenix Gun Club on Wednesday or Friday mornings. Check out the Phoenix website for their range schedule.
If you are interested in doing some kayaking or canoeing, give Howard Stringer a call at 727-204-0603.
Fishing trips are being organized by Frank Scarfi. Frank's number is 727-378-8818.
Bicycling outings are being arranged by Pat Lanphier. Pat can be reached at 352-686-6598. If you like to bike, call Pat.
Welcome back to everyone who was away for the summer and are now beginning their annual southward migration to our beautiful communities. Please mark your calendars with the date for our Christmas Party which has been set for Tuesday, December 5th at the Heritage Pines Clubhouse. Hope to see you there.

Feel Good Every Day....
One of 23 Ways to boost your Brainpower, according to a number of written articles is to play PING PONG! Table tennis has long been lauded for its ability to improve attention and concentration. Japanese researchers also found that in players older than 50, ping-pong improved brain function by activating specific neurons, and showed promise in preventing dementia as well. Plus, it's lots of fun, and a great aerobic workout! Yes, aerobic...... Please join us on Thursday mornings in the PAC room at 10:30 a.m. for some Brainpower! We are also playing on Tuesday evenings at 6:30 p.m.
Note: You can use the Ping Pong table (stored in the PAC) room and the paddles and balls (stored at the Front Desk) whenever the PAC room has not been assigned for some other event. Call the Front Desk to determine if the PAC room is open and come up with family and friends whenever.

TOYMAKERSThe Craft Room is buzzing....sanding, painting, detailing and putting wheels on so many wonderful and colorful wooden toys. Last holiday season we made approximately 1,200 toys and gave them to three schools for the pre-k to second grade children. What fun the children have deciding which toy to take home. The ToyMakers and the Angels in the Pines work
together to bring joy to the children before the holiday break. The Angels make hats, scarves and purchase gloves to give to the children with the toy.
The ToyMakers meet every Monday in the Craft Room from 11:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. Many of us stay to have lunch at the Fireside afterwards. Once a month we celebrate the birthdays for the month. We have a great time while working on this charitable project.
Men and women are both welcome so come and see if this project is for you. Our Woodshop here at Heritage Pines is where all our wonderful toys begin. For more information call Phyllis Matheson at 727-861-5546 or Vicki Hoffman at 727-378-6800.

If you haven't played pool (billiards) with the Ladies, or the Couples Groups then you are missing a lot of laughs and fun. We do not have a league, but we do have some talented players who are very patient and are helping all of us to improve our game.
The Ladies Group plays on Wednesdays from 1 p.m. through 3 p.m. and on Thursdays from 9:30 a.m. through 11:30 p.m. The “ladies” are always willing to welcome new players and teach novices. Simply drop in to play either Wednesdays or Thursdays in the billiards/card room at the clubhouse.
Then we also have a Couples Group meeting to play on Saturdays from 2 p.m. through 4 p.m. This consists of beginners to some amazingly skilled generous players who want to share their knowledge while still having a good time with their partners. The comradery and support that everyone gives each other, whether a good shot has been made or a miss, makes the afternoon a lot fun while giving you an opportunity to meet some new residents. Makes for some very interesting matches!!!!
If you played pool “back in the day” or never at all, please feel free to drop in and join us. We know you'll enjoy it like we do. For further information, please call Ruth Stickel at 869-7848 or Deb Tribbey at 857-6583.

All former league players as well as newcomers to the game are welcome. This open play format will allow each player to get better acquainted and promote a sense of friendship and competitive enthusiasm. Hope to see you each Monday during the summer at 3:30 in the Game Room.

The mission of the HP Food & Wine Club is to enjoy new culinary and wine experiences as a group with events that members may not have been exposed to in just dining out.
The June Spanish Wines & Tapas Tasting had a sell-out crowd of 31 members and their guests. Chef Josh prepared wonderful Tapas dishes that tantalized our taste buds. We tasted a few Spanish cheeses, followed by a Spanish Eggplant dip on a toasted bread rounds, Pan-fried bread cubes with Chorizo sausage, Fresh melon with Serrano ham and artichoke hearts, and ham croquettes. Mike Russell chose three wonderful Spanish wines that paired with the Tapas dishes and made delicious red Sangria for our sipping pleasure. Most people came dressed in the theme colors of red and black and looked marvelous. We had a fun time with photos taken of us standing behind a screen that made us look like Spanish Flamenco dancers. You can see them on our HP Food & Wine Club Facebook page.
We specifically want to thank our members, mentors, and staff for their contributions to this successful event:
Bernie & Cathy Patterson for donation of a case of wine
Elaine Sedlak and Lou Holscher for welcoming guests
Debra Tribbey for her decorating skills that set the Spanish ambience
Chef Josh Farrington for his outstanding gourmet culinary skills
Mike Russell for his skill at choosing the perfect wines
Tina Gordon for her excellent table service
Phyllis Clukey for setting the table linens and
The guys who moved tables, chairs and portable walls
Thank You All!
Thank you to Ludwig and Carolyn Wallner for their continuing travels of “The Cork.” We enjoy seeing the interesting places it has been. Photos can be seen on our Facebook page.
Please support Heritage Pines by buying a ticket for the New England Clam Boil Sunset Social on September 7. Tickets are $50.00. Again, this is a unique experience not found locally.
Note This Date Change: Our Holiday Party will be on Friday, December 1 at 6:00 p.m. in the PAC Room. The theme will be “Colonial Christmas” Dinner with all dishes authentic to the Colonial era. Colonial era costumes are encouraged. This event is open to all HP residents and the cost will be $50.00 per person. Once again, this event will be a unique experience, not found anywhere else, except maybe in Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia. Look for periodic notices over email for our monthly events. For more information, contact Hope Botterbusch, Club Coordinator at [email protected] or 727-233-2139.

Don't worry - even though we are walking inside you will work up a good sweat! Get your walk in early and have the rest of your day free to do as you please. Grab a towel, some water and join us for some fun.
GENEALOGY CLUBHello again! I am so excited about our genealogy topic today – how to jump-start your research using online tools. As we have discussed before, there is a TON of information on the internet! So, what tools can you use and what information do you need to have to harness the power of the internet? I will answer those questions for you today – so, let's get started!
In order for you to get the most out of your online resources, there are certain things you must know. The first is the community the person you are researching lived. Community can include religious environment, socio-economic environment, ethnic environment, etc. This information will help ensure the accuracy of your data. Second, you need to know the state and/or geographic area this person lived in. Finally, the country the person lived in. Before you can begin to utilize the tools I have listed below, you must have this information, as it will help you weed through the data you are sure to find.
Once you have the information listed above, there is a fount of online resources for you to begin using. These resources include: State archives, State libraries, State genealogical societies, State historical societies, Public libraries (digital collections) – https://dp.la/, State universities (public and private), GenWeb, Ancestry Wiki, Cindi's List (I love this site! It has, literally, EVERYTHING!), Family research, Historical markers (great source of information and can add a lot of fun for a trip!) and Ancestry Research Guide – bit.ly/us-state-guides.
To start using these resources you should make a research guide for each state your ancestors lived in. In my case, the states are NH, ME, MA, VT, CT, MO, AR, TN, and MI. After compiling your list, use the resources above to find a TON of research related to your family.
Don't forget about Find a Grave, this website is currently being updated and contains a plethora of information that you can access. In addition, if your loved one has passed and was cremated, you can create a memorial for them on this website.
Also, don't be afraid to used maps (military and state department of transportation maps)! They can give you valuable information on how your relatives migrated around the world.
To close this article out I just want to remind you – DON'T FEAR THE INTERNET! It can be your greatest resource when researching your genealogy. As always, it was a pleasure to share this information with you and I will talk to you next month!

RETIRED OLD MEN EATING OUT
This is a wonderful way for all our retired residents to get out and be with old friends and meet or make new friends.
A Tribute to our beloved ROMEO President Al Sacher. As everyone knows, Al passed away on July 30th. Fourteen years ago, Al was one of the founders of our Heritage Pines ROMEO Club. He loved the club and its members, nurturing it daily to help the Club grow. There are many ROMEO clubs throughout the world, most with less than a few dozen members. Al grew his Club from the four original members to possibly the largest ROMEO club in the world with almost 220 members. Al spurred this growth by having members not just enjoy a meal together, like other clubs, but by having numerous events for Club members to participate in on a monthly basis. The contributions Al made to the ROMEO Club will never be forgotten and we, as board members, promised Al we would continue to operate the Club in the fashion that Al would have if he were still with us. Al will be greatly missed by all.
ROMEO Upcoming Events
September 29th: ROMEO Monthly Breakfast Meeting (Members Only). The breakfast buffet will be set up and ready to go at 9 a.m. The cost is only $9 per person and includes bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs, potatoes and French toast. Both decaf and regular coffee are available as well as a variety of breads and dessert pastries. We will begin the meeting after everyone has finished their breakfast and induct any new members.
Saturday, October 14th: Annual ROMEO Picnic (initially open to ROMEO Members only). This is being managed by Don Galloway and Jeff Mariano. The picnic will run from 11 a.m to 4 p.m. in the new H.P. Pavilion. Early arrivers will be treated to either regular or decaf Dunkin Donuts coffee and donuts. The Clubhouse will be providing a large lunch buffet which includes: All beef hot dogs, cheeseburgers, potato salad, macaroni salad, a tossed salad, rolls, condiments, cookies and brownies. (See attached flyer on page 20 of this newsletter.) Meal service will begin at 12:30 p.m. and includes free sodas and water provided by the Club. Cost per ticket is
only $15 per person. Our music will be provided by Dwain Schott who is a resident of Timber Pines. Dwain is familiar to all of us who attended our ROMEO dance on July 21st. The Bocce courts will be open and the Bean Bag Toss game will be available. If room in the pavilion is available, we will open this event to all Heritage Pines residents to purchase tickets on September 15th. Tickets for ROMEO Club members can be purchased at the front desk beginning on Wednesday, August 16th.
Sunday, November 5th: Turkey Trot Dinner And Dance (Couples Event). Open to all Heritage Pines Residents. This is our most significant couples event of the year. Cocktails will be served at 5 p.m. and the dinner serving begins at 5:45 p.m. We will be having two main entrees; a Thanksgiving turkey dinner buffet with all the trimmings and a fish lovers Salmon dinner. A chocolate covered sheet cake and coffee will be served after dinner. We have currently viewed and listened to several bands. A memo will be sent out to all members once a selection is made. The music starts at 6:30 p.m. and ends at 9:30 p.m. There will be a cash bar and we will have raffles for prizes. Prizes to be awarded: a $25 Publix gift certificate, a dinner certificate for two at the Fireside Clubhouse restaurant and tickets for a round of four on our Heritage Pines golf course. Finally, we are only printing 175 tickets for this event to help with room and dance floor comfort. Each table will have ten folks and the dance floor will be centered with tables placed around it. This gets everyone closer to the dance floor. The tickets will be going on sale Friday, September 29th, so you can purchase them right after our September breakfast meeting. The cost of the tickets are $25 per person, the same as last year. This is always a sellout so be sure to purchase your tickets as soon as they go on sale at the Clubhouse desk.
ROMEO Club Recently Completed Events
August 24th: Rays Baseball Game at Tropicana Field. The ROMEO Club completed their yearly outing at Tropicana Field to see the Tampa Bay Rays play the Toronto Blue Jays in a matinee game. The stadium seats were in the Press Box level and cost $35 each which included the game ticket and bus transportation to and from the game in St. Petersburg. We filled the 56 seat bus and everyone had a good time.
August 25th: ROMEO Club Monthly Breakfast Meeting. This breakfast buffet was set up and ready to go at 9 a.m. Prior to the breakfast the Club held a tribute to our past President Al Sacher. Our new ROMEO President (Skip Scott) was introduced as such to Club members in attendance. All of the other five board members titles and duties will remain the same for now. Skip requested the membership help us find a new board member since we have found that a seven member board is the best fit for the ROMEO Club. Once breakfast was finished, we began our monthly meeting and introduced new members Dan Driessen and Ron Lime.
Sunshine Committee
Our Sunshine Committee is responsible for sending out condolence and get well cards. We sent out two get well cards in July and one condolence card. We hope all 220 members will keep us posted when they know of any ROMEO member or

We had four practices in the month of August. All practices were held once a week on Fridays at 9 a.m. Practices were held on August 4th, August 11th, August 18th and August 25th. It should be noted that team management Al Grosso and Jeff Mariano were not able to attend the August 4th practice; so, Christine Grosso and Frank DeRoachment managed that one for us. Both Jeff and Al attended memorial services as follows: Jeff for our Heritage Pines ROMEO Club President Al Sacher and Al for the Commissioner of the Anderson Snow Softball Association Tom Sasso. Here is the picture of the 11 players that were at the beginning of our August 11th practice (three other players not in the picture are mentioned below):
Top Row (from left to right): Al Grosso, Tony Chivallai, Alfredo Velazquez, and Jeff Mariano.
Bottom Row (from left to right): Bob Harris, Frank DeRoachment, Billy Reuter, CB King, Kevin McCrystal, John Clock and his granddaughter Ava Clock.
Christine Grosso was the photographer and Bob Castelli and Al Stork arrived after the picture was taken. A few of the players coming to our practices are from the Anderson Snow Softball Association since they are able to have more hitting practice at our practices. Each player is usually able to get 40 hits at our practices whereas compared to less then ten hits at their Anderson Snow practice sessions due to the large number of players that need to be accommodated there. We used to hold practices at 9:30 a.m.; however, we changed them to 9 a.m. to help avoid some of the hot summer weather.
Here are the upcoming practices for the month of September. We have a total of five practices scheduled for September: September 1st, September 8th, September 15th, September 22nd and September 29th.

Book club to resume discussions in September. The Heritage Pines Book Club meets on the 4th Wednesday of each month. We enjoyed some
wonderful summer luncheons, thanks to our lunch coordinators Susan Bell, Diane Estensen, Roseann Andare and Mary Lou Ballmann. On Wednesday, September 27, we'll resume our book discussions when we meet in the Magnolia Room at 10:30 a.m.
Our September selection is Mennonite in a Little Black Dress by Rhoda Janzen, an intelligent, funny, and wonderfully written (if a little irreverent) memoir. Not long after Rhoda turned forty, her world turned upside down. It was bad enough that her husband of fifteen years left her for a man he met on Gay.com – but that same week a car accident left her seriously injured. Understandably depressed, and needing a place to heal, rest and pick up the pieces of her life, she returned to her quirky Mennonite family's home, where she was welcomed with open arms and offbeat advice. The depictions of family members and others in the Mennonite community are continuously funny and endearing.
Following the discussion, members will adjourn to the Dining Room for lunch and more “book talk”.
The reading schedule for the year is available on the Bulletin Board and in the Book Club binder in the Library.
Everyone in the community is welcome, so please come and join our discussions. If anyone has any questions about the Book Club, please call Judith Chase at 862-4545 or Mary Lou Ballmann at 862-1438. Happy reading!

Paleo Park ~ Elliott Site is Heritage Pines' best kept secret. But now the secret is being revealed in a new way! For those new to our community or for those who are unfamiliar with this site, here is a brief history:
Paleo Park ~ Elliott Site, an ancient sinkhole, has been designated the historic site 8PA596 by the Division of Historical Resources (FDHR). It was an oasis in the middle of Florida marsh land where Paleo Indians made their camps and Spanish explorers briefly stopped on their journey north.
The site was rededicated in 2016 with its naming, “Paleo Park ~ Elliott Site”, in recognition of the tireless efforts of Herb and Paula Elliott. The Elliott's were early residents of Heritage Pines
PALEO PARK ELLIOT SITE

-52-
and both Herb and Paula have watched over this important site where they collected 4,500 ancient artifacts and turned them over to the FDHR for curation in Tallahassee. Being an amateur archaeologist, Herb, immediately recognized the significance of this historic site and with the help of many residents, the site has become a locally designated preservation area that includes an interpretive trail and designated signage.
Paleo Park ~ Elliott Site has been open to our residents and their guests for several years, but beginning in October there will be monthly activities, talks, guided walking tours and a Geocache Adventure called, “The Lost Treasure of Esperanza Cortez”. This is a fun treasure hunt adventure for all ages.
Herb Elliott and Deb Tribbey are currently acting as volunteer stewards of this historic site. With an avid interest in and knowledge of Florida native plants, Deb is actively cataloging, labeling and nurturing the plant materials at Paleo Park along with her husband, Bob Tribbey. Hope Botterbusch has volunteered to coordinate education and outreach programs for our residents and their guests. Hope has a professional background in environmental science education programs. Tours, talks and activities will be coordinately monthly by Hope, and Herb and Deb will be available for occasional discussions and tours. Look for scheduled activities in the Pines Newsletter, the Attention Residents online email, and notices posted in the Clubhouse lobby.
We have also launched new web pages that are found on the HP website. To access these pages, click on Social Activities, and scroll down to Paleo Park. You must sign in to access these

Lots of butterfly species have been seen in my yard and at Paleo Park this summer. Hope you're able to enjoy them also. Here is the State Butterfly of Florida, a Zebra Longwing on a Hamalia (Firebush).
BUTTERFLIES OF SUMMER
ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUESCOMMITTEE
SPANISH MOSS AND BALL MOSS –HARMLESS EPIPHYTES
Beautiful colors, enchanting flight patterns, symbols of life and transformation — butterflies add magic to your landscape and fascinate visitors young and old. A butterfly garden will nourish not only the butterflies but also you, by providing a reconnect with nature.
Florida has nearly 200 species of butterflies, some of which occur only here, nowhere else in the world. Wherever you live in Florida, there are probably several dozen species of butterflies living in your area. Take a moment to become familiar with the most common species. And take note of where you see them. You'll discover that butterflies, like all other wild creatures, don't live on turfgrass. You may be surprised to find the greatest number of butterflies in an empty field, full of “weeds.” A wide variety of native plants, including both trees and wildflowers, are used by butterflies.
Gardening for butterflies focuses on selecting two kinds of plants: nectar plants for the adult butterflies and larval (or host) plants for caterpillars.
Nectar, found in flowers, contains sugar, protein and other nutrients needed by adult butterflies. Butterflies will nectar on a variety of flowering plants, but not all flowering plants provide nectar. A Florida Native Plant nursery will have a large selection of native nectar and larval plants, both shrubs and perennials, perfect for this part of Florida. The Pasco County Chapter of the Florida Native Plant Society holds a Fall plant sale in Land O'Lakes on October 21st.
Larval plants are those upon which female butterflies lay their eggs and caterpillars feed. Most butterflies are very selective and will lay their eggs on only a few species of native plants. If you want to attract butterflies to your yard and keep them there, you must provide the right larval plants for their young (caterpillars). Remember that the plants and the butterflies have co-evolved over thousands of years. If caterpillars overwhelm your plant, it's okay! Don't be tempted to spray! Your plants will recover.
Pick a sunny spot for your butterfly garden, and plant a variety of nectar and larval plants. Most nectar plants need at least a few hours of sun, and newly “hatched” butterflies use the sun's energy to get their wings moving. Butterflies sleep under leaves so it's a good idea to have some tall shrubs where they can roost. A few shady spots in the landscape will benefit butterflies like
the zebra longwing, our state butterfly, which enjoys fluttering in the shade.
Never use pesticides in your garden! You will endanger the health of your family and eliminate butterflies. The other thing to be very cautious of, is non-native plants at big box stores. If you have planted these types of milkweeds, be sure you cut them down every Fall, so that butterfly migration patterns are not adversely affected.
Thinking of having your trees “de-mossed?” Do you believe that Spanish moss or ball moss is killing our trees? Please read on to understand the role of these plants in our semi-tropical ecosystem. Epiphytes are “air” plants that survive on moisture and nutrients in the atmosphere. People unfamiliar with epiphytes sometimes worry that they may injure the plants they perch in. Epiphytes attach themselves to plants, but they do not harm the plants, unlike mistletoe, a plant parasite. Without soil as a source of nutrients, epiphytic plants have evolved the capacity to obtain minerals dissolved in water that flows across leaves and down branches. Despite their common names, Spanish moss and ball moss are not mosses but members of the Bromeliad family. Spanish moss is easily recognizable by its hanging strands. Ball moss is a small, tufted, gray-green plant shaped like a ball with spikes. Both prefer high light and will therefore thrive on weak or dead trees that have lost leaves. Their presence on dead or dying trees does not implicate them as the cause of the plants' deterioration, however. Sick or dead host trees likely succumbed to soil compaction, altered drainage, disease, or other problems that can compromise plant health.
If a tree is already failing, Spanish moss may add to its decline especially if branches are heavily laden with the moss. This prevents lower leaves from receiving sunlight which is needed for photosynthesis. Again, this concern is significant only for trees that are already in decline. In most instances Spanish moss

is completely harmless and only adds aesthetic appeal.
Some early Floridians earned their livelihood collecting Spanish moss which was used to stuff car cushions and upholstery. Today, Spanish moss is collected and used by the craft and floral trade. If you have trees in your yard with this plant, you may harvest it and use it for your own projects. Be sure to “nuke” it in your microwave for a minute or two to be sure all little critters are eliminated. It can then be safely placed around your indoor live or silk potted plants. In addition, many animals use Spanish moss for protection, taking cover in its thick masses. Many species of birds use strands of moss to build their nests.
Many of our lovely old trees are laden with these harmless epiphytes and are a constant reminder that we live in the South. Let's be grateful that some of these old trees with their graceful “curtains” of moss were saved for us to enjoy here in beautiful Heritage Pines.

Adam and Eve
Charity
At Sunday School they were teaching how God created everything, including human beings. Little Johnny seemed especially intent when they told him how Eve was created out of one of Adam's ribs.
Later in the week his mother noticed him lying down as though he were ill, and she said, 'Johnny, what is the matter?'
Little Johnny responded, 'I have pain in my side. I think I'm going to have a wife.'
I just had a call from a Charity asking me to donate some of my clothes to the starving people throughout the world.
I told them to buzz off! Anybody who fits into my clothes isn't starving.
