Now that we are getting into Hurricane season, Paul Prince and John Bicknell, with the assistance

of our excellent office staff, are attempting to insure that IBE and its residents are prepared for the

worst. They have developed a booklet “Emergency Disaster Information” and would like to provide

 it to all residents.  If you are in IBE, please stop by and request one. 

 

NEIGHBOORHOOD WATCH NEWS:  We had a very well attended meeting last month.  Paul Prince and John Bicknell ran the meeting and offered many good ideas and suggestion on ways to keep our park safe.  Many pairs of eyes to observe and report any suspicious people or activities are helpful.  We still need more good people to be one of our watchers.  A neighborhood watchers’ badge has been given to each watcher.      Our Captains are Adlee Lutz – 495 6231, Miriam Crowe – 947 5934, Edith Nalepa – 495-1089 and Joanne Hershberger – 947 3960.  All units must have house numbers which are large enough to be seen from the street.

LET US KNOW YOUR NEWS:  Do you have news to share with other IBE residents?  If so, email it to:   maryannwill@charter.net.  Did anyone take an exciting trip, have new grandchildren or anything interesting or funny happen.  Share it with us via email.  A July Newsletter will be published soon, so email now.

 

 

WIFI WOES:

I know that the WiFi has been very frustrating for all of us. 

Our experts are being called, and we may have to get new experts.

 It is not being forgotten, and is being worked on.

 ALL SNOWBIRDS          

START YOUR MIGRATION EARLY.

 If you don’t make plans to return to IBE early in the fall, you will be missing some fun events.  We hope to have our first (or first in awhile) Halloween Party.  Jim Mason wants to organize one, and we all know he does a great job.

Also, Tom Vaughn expressed interest in hosting an Octoberfest (or possibly it will be a Novemberfest). Tom’s Happy Hours are always great, so I’m sure this will be also.

DON’T MISS OUT.  RETURN TO IBE EARLY.

  

I’m sorry to report that there are a number of death notices that we must pass on at this time.  We are including all of the more recent ones in 2008.  We do not have dates on all, nor do we have contact information. There will be a July newsletter soon.  If you would like to provide further information email it to: maryannwill@charter.net.         Carl Scheller          May12      Bill Martin              June 5      Marge White      Arlene Courtney     May 15      Alice Burnett          Feb. 26      Nellie Hurley            Rosalyn Mattiola      Lyle Whitford      Jean Alexander      Edwin (Ted) Truthan           Maurine  (Mo) Cunningham      Bob Hull                 May      Dick Venatta
