Save the Date The UCO Installation Luncheon is sched-uled for Sunday, March 14, 2010 at the Marriott Hotel in West Palm Beach. This is a good time to notify your Association so that they may put the price of your tickets in their 2010 budget. We will be installing a new UCO President, Vice Presidents, Treasurer, Corresponding Secretary, and Recording Secretary. The Executive Board will be installed too. A delicious brunch will be served as well as music for dancing. The good news is that we have been able to keep the cost per person to $35. More information will follow as we get closer to 2010.

Rather than speak aboutnewrestaurantsorbusroutes,Iamgoingtosharealittletrans-portation historywith you.For the new residents, youmayfindthisveryinteresting,andfor thoseofyouwhogoback to the beginning timesof CenturyVillage, pleasereminiscewithme.Butfirst,did you know that theUCO Reporterwasonceknownas“TheVillageVoice”? Irecentlymetaveryinter-estinggentlemanbythenameofSteveSchwartz.Hismotherhad recently passed and hecame tomyhome forme tobringtheSalesAgreementtotheUCOofficeandItookthetimetolistentohisstorywhichIamnowsharingwithyou. Thestoryisabouthisfather,AlSchwartz,whocametotheVillage in the “RedButtonsEra” of the 1970s and re-tiredfromtheNewYorkCityTransitAuthority.Hedecided
thiswas the place to comefor retirement and, bywordofmouth, approximately sixother transit employees fol-lowedhim towhathecalled“hislittleparadise.” AlmetMr.Levy,whowason thepremisesat that time,following the various con-struction sites andMr.Levythought itwould be a greatideaforhimtosetupatransitsystemfortheVillage. Duringthisperiod,HaverhillNorthwasnothingmore thanfarms.ThebiggestadjustmentsfromNewYorkwere that thearea that hadno ideawhat abagelwas, couldn’t even re-memberwhenpizza came totheareaandtherewasrelativelynoplacetogoandeat.(Canyouimagine?)TheVillagewasthemostexcitingplacearound.

registeredvehiclesandcouldnotleavetheVillage. Afteraperiodoftime,oldcitybuses,knownintheVil-lage as the “BlueBombers,”were purchased.Apparentlytherewasanareaof landonOkeechobee thatwas ownedbyMr. Levy that had a gasstation on it.

This complimentary booklet creates an awareness around the most costly annuity owner mistakes and provides tips and strategies to help you make the most of your hard-earned assets.

Iwaspuzzledwhen IfirstsawthelargemapshowinghisdevelopmentandtheedgeofourCenturyVillageproperty.Therewere two large lakes—were theyours?No, theyexplained, thesewere lakeson their property that theywould build, which wouldnotonlyprovidesomepleas-ant scenery, but also form akindof buffer zone betweentheirhousingandourVillage.Inotherwords,thelakes,nottheirhousing,wouldabutmostofourproperty.

Pinpoint accuracy for greaterprecision in surgeries.
ROBOTIC SURGERY:
Less pain. Faster recovery.
Get back to your life, faster.
Surgeons perform minimally invasive surgery for less pain and trauma to the body.
This amazing technology is designed
to offer surgeons greater precision, control
and access to hard-to-reach areas, allowing
extremely complex operations to be
performed through just a few small incisions.
Now, minimally invasive techniques can be
used for procedures whose complexity
once demanded traditional surgery.
Benefits may include:
• Small incisions
• Less pain
• Faster recovery
• Less scarring
• Faster return to normal activities
