March Events - Heritage Isle Club
Resident Spotlight: Henry Scott Harris Henry Scott Harris is a World War II Navy Veteran who founded an award winning national Marketing Company that produced the first telethon for retarded children. He also volunteered as Assistant Director for USO Camp Shows arranging show celebrity performances by Jack Benny, Marilyn, and others. Long active in community service, he was the youngest member of Governor Rockefeller’s Economic Commission. Coming out of retirement, he was Senior National Director for CBS/ Metro Radio and TV Networks. He and his wife also wrote travel articles for many newspapers and magazines. They attended Queen Elizabeth’s Birthday Bash and King of Morocco Royal Festival. He and his wife served as voluntary high school teachers in Arizona. Seeing a need, he created a unique touring high school and college educational program, “Heroes and the Holocaust,” where actual veterans told of their experiences. His wife, Shirley, was editor and publisher of Women Mean Business, a directory and instructional manual to help women in upward mobility. The publication was honored by Dallas, Texas and received a commendation from the United Nations. The couple moved to Heritage Isle from Fairview, Texas. In Texas, Henry adapted and directed many plays. Together they appeared in the hit production “Love Letters.” His book, “All Blood Runs Red” has been released for publication (Amazon, Barnes & Noble, et al) and is being submitted for a TV mini-series. We are honored that Henry will be directing the next Heritage Isle Theater Guild mystery murder comedy being performed March 28th and 29th entitled “A Guest in the House.” March Events Friday, March 14th at 7pm in Ballroom St. Patrick Dance Party one on Friday, April 4th and one on Saturday, April 5th. Residents may only attend one party, not both. Each event will be limited to 24 tables to accommodate the dinner buffets and allow for more “leg room”. We recommend 8 people to a table but you may go as high as 10. Anything above 10 is prohibited, and another table will need to be started. The amazing Rick Brensinger will be performing both nights, so be ready to dance! The cost is $15/person and includes dinner, dessert, coffee, water and one free beverage from the bar (beer, wine or call cocktail). Dinner reservations begin at 5:30pm; music and dancing will be from 7-10pm. You must reserve your table and dinner time when you purchase your tickets. Tickets for Friday, April 4th will go on sale Monday, March 10th at 9am. Tickets for Saturday, April 5th will go on sale Tuesday, March 11th. Initially, this event is residents only, however we will open it up to guests on March 24th if space is available. Singles may bring one adult guest. Rules for purchasing tickets: We will hand out numbers beginning at 8am - only one number per household will be given out. If you choose to wait before the club opens, you must do so at the front of the building. You will be allowed to purchase one table (810people) if you choose, however, you will need to provide the first and last names of the others at your table and you may only use ONE form of payment. We will not accept multiple forms, as it is too time consuming. If you are not purchasing an entire table, but will be buying for your selves and another couple, you will also need names and one form of payment. Only one transaction per number will be allowed. Please be prepared with names and payments, when your number is called. To help ease the inconvenience of waiting - sometimes hours - certain numbers will be called in a certain time period, we are hoping to get through 15 numbers per hour. Numbers 1-15 will be called between 9am and 10am, 16-30 between 10am and 11am, 31-45 between 11am and 12pm, and so on. We will not call a number before its time, so if you are number 16, we will wait until 10am. If you are not here when your number is called, you will go to the back of the line in your designated time period. We encourage you to coordinate your table beforehand, to ease the ticket purchasing process. Please be aware that this is a new system for us at the clubhouse and there may be some hiccups. We appreciate your patience. The Tommy & Annette Doyle Duet will be rocking your favorite Irish and Dance tunes all night. We will have a best dressed contest so come dressed in your Green. There will be a prize for each gender. Tickets are $7/person. Cash Bar & Snacks provided.

Pet owners should familiarize themselves with the county ordinances and community covenants and standards which govern the ownership of pets within our Community. County ordinances include the requirement that all pets are to be licensed by the county and failure to do so can result in a fine. All pets must be leashed at all times when off the property of the animal owner and the leash must be of sufficient strength to control the animal and not to exceed six (6) feet in length. It is the responsibility of the owner or person in control of the animal to dispose of or remove any excretions caused by the animal and not to permit or allow an animal to defecate or urinate upon any public property, or any private property, without permission of the property owner. No animal shall be permitted or allowed to create a nuisance. Brevard County ordinances, explanations and contact information can be found on the county website: http:// www.brevardcounty.us/AnimalServices/Home or telephone (321) 633-2024.

Their environment should be attractive, clean, safe comfortable. The current members of the Board are: Judy Garrett, President, Larry Rutledge, Vice President, James Sevastos, Secretary, Susan Sommerfeld, Treasurer, Walton Thomas, Gerald Kortum and John Nichtern are Members at Large. The overall challenges are to give the condo community the continuing support, and help by having the solutions to any and all problems that may arise, and to treat each owner fairly. As President my challenges are the same as previously stated as well as helping committees, chairing the meetings, and being available to the Board members, the residents and the management company. My personal goal is to continue to have a Board that is going to identify an issue and be proactive in the resolution of the issue. The annual meeting will be on March 20, 2014 and everyone should attend this. We have recently installed bike racks in front of each building and are researching the problem of the gutters making a lot of noise during a windy storm. Hopefully we will be able to erase that problem soon. There is continuing landscaping going on and we will be mulching again shortly. The painting of all of the building is under way and that will be completed in approximately eight weeks. The Board will always be working on continuing to keep our community the place we all want to live.

Temporary Decal for Rental Cars Resolution – since there are residents that visit their home for short periods of time and rent cars, this resolution allows them to purchase a decal ($10) from Leland Management after showing their rental car agreement with their name and the start and end dates. The decal would be deactivated at the end of the rental period. Event Gate Access Resolution – in order to speed traffic through the front gate and support the Club/EAC this resolution allows EAC to send out color placards, with an invitation to an event, which can be used by the guest to gain access to HI without stopping at the front gate. The placard would have the date and time of the event and EAC would pay for an extra attendant to allow the guests and residents to pass though the resident gate. The club would notify HI residents two days before the event so they can use the back gate and avoid the extra traffic.

Meeting notices are posted on the Clubhouse bulletin board and posted to residents at least 72 hours before the meeting date. Minutes of the meetings, once approved, are posted on the HI District web site. Policies and procedures of the Associations are administered by a contracted management company, Leland Management. Ms. Darcie Madison is the contact for such matters, email: DMadison@LelandManagement.com website: www.heritageilseatviera.com Resident Advisory Council (RAC) Members of the Council are elected by the residents and appointed by the Board once a year and serve two (2) year terms and may not serve more than 2 consecutive terms unless authorized by the BOD.

Upcoming Meetings: Landscape Committee, March 18, 2:00 pm Resident Advisory Council, March 20, 9:30 am Page 8 Page 9 Rick’s Corner From the Newsletter Committee Did you ever not feel like doing something? Well, I don’t feel like writing about investments today. I feel like writing about bananas! “Yes, we have no bananas. We have no bananas today.” Bananas: When I was a little boy, my mother would take ripe bananas – the squishy ones with brown patches all over, and mash them up in a bowl and add milk. She would mix the milk and bananas together with a spoon and serve it to me as a desert. I loved it, and I still eat that desert today. It turns out she was a smart lady. A new scientific research report states that full ripe bananas with dark patches on yellow skin produces an important substance called TNF (Tumor Necrosis Factor). TNF has the ability to combat abnormal cells. The more darker patches a banana has, the higher will be its immunity enhancement quality; Hence, the riper the banana the better the anticancer quality. Yellow skin ripe bananas with dark spots are 8X more effective in enhancing the property of white blood cells than the green skin version. So, don’t throw away those squishy bananas, have a bowl of mashed bananas and milk. You’ll like them! Note: As a result of this article, if you go to Wal-Mart to buy bananas and they say “yes, we have no bananas”, you can blame me. The newsletter continues to be a work in progress. We strive to make every issue better and more interesting. I hope you like the changes in formatting and enjoy the addition of the “Riddle Me This” section. The first person who emails the correct solution to the riddle to heritageislenews@yahoo.com will win a free sandwich at the Bistro. Good Luck! On a sad note, we will no longer have Lisa’s smiling face and waves at the front gate by the time this issue is published. She is leaving to work in the office of a home inspection firm owned by a friend. She did, however, say that she will be back periodically to work the gate some Saturdays. Our good wishes to Lisa! We are always looking for new ideas and contributors for articles. Any new suggestions for articles or volunteers to join our team of writers will be welcome. Just let us know in person or by email at the above address. Have a great month of March and enjoy St. Patrick’s Day, the Vernal Equinox, Daylight Savings Time, and , most of all, enjoy the Heritage Isle Theater Guild Spring Show on March 28th and 29th! Handyman Advice: Let’s talk about grout. The grout on our tile floor throughout the house is supposed to be white. Over the years it has changed from gray to grayer to grayest, according to the room you are in. Although it is interesting to have these color changes, I am one for uniformity. Well, I found an easy way to clean the grout. First, go to Amazon.com and order the “Commercial Title & Grout Cleaning Brush” by Artistic Solutions (it attaches to a standard threaded pole) - $15.99 + 6.99 shipping. When you get your brush, put a pole in it, it saves your back. Next go to the Dollar Tree (near Wal-Mart) and buy a quart of “LA’s Totally Awesome All Purpose Concentrated Cleaner & Degreaser Spot Remover” - $1.00. Mix in a spray bottle, 5 parts water and one part cleaner. Spray it on the grout, let it sit for 5 minutes and scrub with your new grout brush. Then, wipe with damp mop. Now you have uniform grout, not as interesting, but just how I like it. One other amazing fact: It seems to work much better if a woman does the grout work. I don’t understand it, but that’s what I found. That’s all folks and remember to be nice to your neighbors.
