Words To The Wise
“If it doesn’t work out the
way you want it to, it will
work out the way it’s sup-
posed to be.”
Julia Nichols
November 27, 2006 Board Meeting Treasurer Nick Catania sug-
gested we add more to the re-
serve fund of the 2007 budget in
case we suffer hurricane damage
next year.
Catania said some items have
to be adjusted before he signed
the proposed budget. Directors
decided to meet within the week
to review it again before all sign-
off on it. Soon after, notice of
maintenance fees and coupon
books will go out to homeowners.
The transition to the new se-
curity transponders will take
place after the first of the year.
Campbell Property Management
will inform residents of the time
and dates of the turnover from
the present to the new system.
The gatehouse computer is
slow to respond especially in
warm weather, and at least needs
to be examined by a qualified
technician.
The clubhouse pool seems in
need of an acid wash. The spa
has a leak for the third time, in-
dicating there is hole in the line
that must be found and repaired.
Joe Daesch continues to re-
port clubhouse income from pri-
vate parties. The committee
spent over $3,000.00 in Septem-
ber on new patio furniture. Let’s
take good care of it.
Greta Silver announced she is
retiring after the January 2007
newsletter. Directors gave her
thanks and appreciation, made a
motion and unanimously voted
her secretary of the Master Asso-
ciation. Most likely, unless an-
other resident wants to take over,
Campbell Property Management
will send out a quarterly infor-
mative letter to residents. Silver
said she would like Campbell to
start using the bulk rate for mail-
ing pieces to the Regency Lakes
community.
There will be another Com-
munity Garage Sale in January,
2007. Look on page 5 for details.
There is plenty of time this go-
around to get ready for it. Just
slap your price tags on your
pieces, get ready to bargain and
clean out your garage. If you
haven’t worn it, used it, needed
it, remembered it . . . YOU
DON’T WANT IT! Do you? Re-
duce the price and get rid of it!
Buddy up with someone so you
have relief time to go shopping.
Wishing everyone in Regency
Lakes a happy, healthy and
peaceful holiday season.

Reading Buddies
Tradewinds Elementary is looking for
volunteers to spend a few hours helping
children to read. Volunteers would be asked
to come into the classroom to help students
practice their reading and writing skills.
Times and hours are extremely flexi-
ble, and Grandparents and high school stu-
dents are welcome! Tradewinds Elementary
is located at 5400 Johnson Road, (between

ested or have any questions, please call

Checking Your Security
All Regency Lakes homes should be
covered by a security system. Originally,
Cypress Trace (954-755-1432) installed
systems in all homes built by Regency
Builders. Those built by Lennar have had
two or three changes until the present com-
pany, Devcon (954-660-6559 or 800-810-
7404), took over. To be safe, call Cypress
Trace or Devcon to make sure you are
listed.
Reduce Water Consumption
The South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) has issued a water
shortage warning and has asked residents
and agricultural water users to voluntarily
reduce water consumption and limit irriga-
tion times as a preemptive measure to avoid
or forestall potential water shortage orders
and mandatory water restrictions this up-
coming dry season. Some ways to conserve
water are:
♦ don't leave the water running while
brushing your teeth
♦ don't take long showers
♦ fix leaky fixtures
♦ don't over-water lawns
Essex Park Block Party
With Fred Bryan leading the all male
committee, the Essex Park party was in
very capable hands. The women voted
unanimously to have the men take over par-
ties permanently because Fred, Sandford
Salyers, Brett Gavagni and others did such
a good job! The turnout was better than our
first party of the year, and the food was
more than ample, delicious and varied.
Marti Evans painted faces (with the
kids’ assistance), Wes Weeks and Carlos
Pepin provided great music for hours, and
the children played games and did some
arts and crafts. We’re all looking forward to
the next get-together, and hope more Essex
Park neighbors will join us. Greta Silver

Happiness
Happiness is a warm puppy. (Charles Schulz)
Sooner or later in life everyone discovers that per-fect happiness is unrealizable, but there are few
who pause to consider the antithesis: that perfect
unhappiness is equally unattainable. (Primo Levi)
My advice to you is not to inquire why or whither, but just enjoy your ice cream while it's on your
plate. (Thornton Wilder)
It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life that no man can sincerely try to help an-
other without helping himself. (Ralph Waldo
Emerson)
For most of life, nothing wonderful happens. If you don't enjoy getting up and working and finish-
ing your work and sitting down to a meal with
family or friends, then the chances are that you're
not going to be very happy. If someone bases his
happiness or unhappiness on major events like a great new job, huge amounts of money, a flaw-
lessly happy marriage or a trip to Paris, that person
isn't going to be happy much of the time. If, on the
other hand, happiness depends on a good breakfast,
flowers in the yard, a drink or a nap, then we are
more likely to live with quite a bit of happiness.
(Andy Rooney)
Always do what you want, and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those
who matter don't mind. (Dr. Suess)
