New members elected to the board were: Linda Scanlon, Judy Strick and Elaine Clorland.
We would like to thank the out-going board members: Bunny McHale, Barb DeMatte and Corrine Waterman for all their dedication and time given to the Charities association.
A big expression of gratitude goes to our past-president Pearl Richter for an outstanding job throughout her term. Pearl will remain on the board as “ex-officio.” These members were invaluable to the organization and deserve so many thank yous!

Talent Show: Although we have said goodbye to some of our “talented” winter residents, we hope that the past great weather Up North finds them returning to flowers in bloom. For those of us still here, also in bloom are the plans for next year’s talent show. Corrine Waterman has been elected to put her directing and producing skills to work once again. Corrine has already enlisted some of our part-time residents to sign up before they left for home. She encourages anyone wishing to participate to contact her at 294-5163. Early and on-going planning will ensure a great show! So please consider sharing your entertainment abilities with our Four Lakes residents on March 8th and 9th, 2013.
The next Charities Meeting will be Tuesday, May 29th in the Great Room at 1:00 p.m. Refreshments are served following the meeting. All ideas and suggestions are encouraged so... Please Join Us!
Thank you to all Four Lakers who supported and attended the many functions that enabled us to help so many as a result.
Gator Classic: My apologies for the omission of the 4th flight winners in the Gator Classic. They were:
1st place: Roger and Diane Danforth 2nd place: Brian Carter and Kathy Brucke
