From the Desk of the President


November is a special month. Veteran’s Day originated as “Armistice Day” on Nov. 11, 1919, the first anniversary of the end of World War I. Congress passed a resolution in 1926 for an annual observance, and Nov. 11 became a national holiday beginning in 1938. Unlike Memorial Day, Veterans Day pays tribute to all American veterans—living or dead—but especially gives thanks to living veterans who served their country honorably during war or peacetime. This day is set aside to honor those men and women of the military who have given of themselves in service of our country, its people, and our freedom. Our community is blessed to have many veterans among us. Please take a moment when you see them to thank them for their service.

Normally we have our Annual Pound Auction for our Vets, but because of Covid-19 it was determined by the Board that it could not occur. There will be a zoom presentation for our vets on November 11th, you will receive an email with the login information. There will also be some special treats for our vets at coffee on Veteran’s Day, I hope to see you there.


The Annual Shareholder’s Meeting was held virtually on Zoom on October 13th, we had 18 virtual attendees and 12 at the community center. Minutes for that meeting are included in the Scallop Shell. Most of the business discussed at the October Board meeting was shared at the shareholders meeting. The feedback on this type of meeting was positive and the Board is considering this platform as a method to communicate with shareholders in lieu of the monthly community center meeting during the pandemic. Let me know your thoughts on this.


Thanksgiving is on the horizon and I would like to wish each of you and your families a very blessed Thanksgiving. Be safe.

Laurie's News

Hi Everyone,
Well it’s November. What a few months we have been through. Now as our numbers from the Virus are climbing up again in our State it looks like we may have to retrack and go back to some of the limitations that we have regained for a full reopening of our State.

BOO HOO. I hope that this phase does not last through the entire winter. Well it’s November. Veterans Day, Thanksgiving. Holidays which is usually spent with family and friends. This year is going to be so different. No Veterans dinner and pound auction at the clubhouse. No Thanksgiving Parade and other celebrations in town. No huge family dinner gatherings. But that is ok. We will get through it. The safer we try to be and follow the guidelines to stop the spread of the virus the better.

So with that I want to thank all of our Veterans for their service to our Country. I also want to Wish Everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving in what ever way we get to celebrate the 399th year anniversary of the Pilgrims first harvest celebration.

I want to send out to our Community the loss of one of our residents Mike Kennedy has passed away. May he Rest in Peace. Our sympathies to his family. Mike will be greatly missed, alone with his harmonica at many different social events
​
Have a great month, see you around the community. Laurie​

 November Greetings from the Social Club,
​

Hi,
​Wish we had better news. Unfortunately, we still aren’t allowed to plan any indoor social events. We hope in 2021 we will be able to have some fun activities again.


We are planning on a Ladies Luncheon at the Sagamore Inn in Sandwich. We hope to eat outdoors weather permitting.
