Monday Morning Memo

January 7, 2019        Esperanza Estates        Green Valley, AZ

Book Discussion Group
The next meeting of the book group is tomorrow, Tuesday, January 8, at 1:00 PM in the Ramada.
Led by Karen O'Brien, the group will discuss A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman. New members are always welcome.

Attention Pickleball Players
New, cold weather start time is 10:00 AM.

EE Gardeners
The next Gardeners meeting will be January 16 at 9:30 AM at the Ramada. We will be cleaning up the EE trail between Portillo and Holgado starting at the Ramada. Everyone is welcome. Expect about 2 hours of work. Bring gloves and a rake if you have one. We will discuss plant needs for 2019 so bring your ideas. It will be a good time for some fresh air, exercise and to meet friends.

Keep Your Top On
Be sure when you remove your Christmas decorations from your lamp post that you secure the top. This is accomplished by making sure when you lower the top to the body of the lamp head that the tabs overlap and the top is secured firmly. If you don't get them connected correctly, the next time it's windy your top is likely to blow away, and if it can't be found, you will have to replace the entire unit (at your expense) as the HOA does not have any spare tops. If you have difficulty securing the top, call Tom at 399-0455 for assistance.

Dinner and Movie
Come join your neighbors at the Ramada for a hearty, delicious bowl of New England clam chowder or beef vegetable soup, salad and a brownie. We will also be serving the usual libations. After dinner, enjoy The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. Some British retirees (Judi Dench, Maggie Smith, Bill Nighy) decide to outsource their retirement to exotic India. Lured by advertisements for the newly restored Marigold Hotel and imagining a life of leisure in lush surroundings, they arrive and find that the Marigold is actually a shell of its former self. The retirees find that life and love can begin again when they let go of their pasts.
So put on your comfiest clothes and join us on Wednesday, January 16. Social time starts at 4:30, dinner will be served at 5:00, and the movie will start at 6:00. Price is $7.00.

2019 Ramada Sale
De-cluttering is a New Year's resolution that's easy to keep thanks to EE's Enhancement Committee. The annual Ramada Sale on March 2 is the perfect way to rid your home of unwanted items. You can drop off donated items at the shed next to the pickleball courts any Wednesday from 9:00 to 11:00 AM.  Pick-up for heavier items will be available after January 5th by calling Patty Tracy at 520-444-4472. The committee will not accept mattresses, hide-a-beds, clothing, paints or chemicals.
The electronics policy has changed. Only working laptop computers and working printers with ink cartridges will be accepted. No other electronics -- TVs, cables, etc. -- will be accepted. If you have a non-working computer, you can take it to Best Buy for recycling. Donations of electronics will only be accepted at the shed.

Periodico Pingo Correction
The date of the Enhancement Team's Pingo event is Thursday, February 21, not Tuesday as reported in the Periodico. Look for details about the event in a future Monday Morning Memo in February.
