HAINES CITY “GOLF CART ORDINANCE”
For those of you who missed our May HOA Meeting…. The City of Haines City “Golf
Cart Ordinance” has passed and is now in effect. The only difference from May‟s
newsletter is that we will not be required to register or have our golf carts inspected. A
copy of the Golf Cart Ordinance is posted in the clubhouse and I have copies in the office
if you would like one.
The first phase of the 'Forestry Project' is now complete. The loggers have
completed their removal and thinning of the pine tree area adjacent to Lake
Hammock Village. The RV/Boat Storage area has been enlarged to accommodate our current and future new residents with RV's, Boats and
Trailers. The clean up and preparation of the storage area has been scheduled. The time frame of completion is unknown at this time as it is dependent on outside
contractor's schedules.

June Is:
According to the Georgian calendar, which is used over most of the world today,
June is the sixth month. On the Roman calendar, it was considered the fourth
month and had only 29 days. Julius Caesar gave the month 30 days in 46 B.C., when
he reformed the Roman calendar.
Spring ends and summer begins around June 20, 21, or 22 in the Northern
Hemisphere. It's the time that the flowers are beautiful. It is especially the
month for roses. In the Southern hemisphere, winter begins during June, and it
brings cold, rainy weather to this part of the world.
The JUNE BUG also known as June beetle is the name for several large beetles
seen in the United States during May and June. They are usually seen at night,
when the light attracts them.
June bugs eat the young leaves of trees and plants. They deposit their eggs in the
ground. The young larvae bury themselves in the soil in the autumn and stay there
two years. They then come out in May or June as adult beetles.
June Symbols Roses are the flowers of the month. The birthstone is Pearl.
June Quotation
Then let us, one and all, be contented with our lot;
The June is here this morning, and the sun is shining hot;
Oh! let us fill our hearts up with the glory of the day,
And banish ev'ry doubt and care and sorrow far away.

Holidays in June
Flag Day is observed in the United States on June 14. It commemorates the day
in 1777 when the Continental Congress adopted the Stars and Stripes as our flag.
It then had only 13 stars, to match its 13 stripes.
It's not an official national holiday, but in Pennsylvania, it is a legal holiday. The
President has proclaimed a public Flag Day observance every year. It was first
observed to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the selection of the flag. President
Harry S. Truman officially recognized June 14 as Flag Day by signing the National
Flag Day Bill.
Our flag represents our independence as Americans and our unity as a nation. It
leads our soldiers in battle and many have died protecting it. It even stands on the
moon.
We Americans are proud of our nation, our culture, our people and our flag that
represents all of those things. So raise your flag on Flag Day and show that
American spirit!
Juneteenth is the oldest known holiday celebrating the end of slavery. It started
on June 19th 1865 when the union soldiers, led by General Granger came to
Galveston Texas and announced that the war was over and the slaves were free.
General Granger read the Emancipation Proclamation freeing about 250,000 slaves
throughout Texas.
Father’s Day (June 19th) was conceived slightly more than a century ago by
Sonora Dodd of Spokane, Wash., while she listened to a Mother’s Day sermon in
1909. Dodd wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart, a widowed
Civil War veteran who was left to raise his six children on a farm. A day in June
was chosen for the first Father’s Day celebration — 100 years ago, June 19, 1910,
proclaimed by Spokane’s mayor because it was the month of Smart’s birth. The
first presidential proclamation honoring fathers was issued in 1966 when President
Lyndon Johnson designated the third Sunday in June as Father’s Day. Father’s Day
has been celebrated annually since 1972 when President Richard Nixon signed the
public law that made it permanent
