LANDSCAPE COMMITTEE
|
The landscaping season is winding down to a close. However, some things still remain to be done. Fall plantings will be installed at both Rio Vista entrances, the center islands and the Formal Garden. The magnificent Formal Garden has been further enhanced with four cast iron planters that are filled with flowers. Personally involved with all this is the Landscape Committee Chairperson, Bill Compagnone, whose good taste is reflected in the landscaping of the common areas. Bill can often be seen surveying the various areas, checking if more or less watering is needed and even planting flowers. With her hard work, Sheryn Liva has also contributed in a major way to the beauty Rio Vista residents enjoy. The Board of Trustees, lead by Dave D’Anna as President, has been a strong support of all these common grounds beautification efforts. They have also been quite satisfied with the work from both Landscaping Dynamix and Village Green Landscapers. Thank you all for your dedication and involvement! |

Thank you, Teena Grant, for serving on this committee for so many years. You will be missed. Meanwhile, Pat Longo, Collette Caesar and Carol Yakimik continue to serve as the Welcome Committee. Thank you all for continuing the long-standing tradition of contacting new Rio Vista residents and welcoming them to the community. The Welcome Committee always needs more people to help out.

WANT SOME TLC???
|
What is TLC? Ask a Rio Vista resident whose family member had a serious medical condition and received meals at their home from about 30 generous neighbors participating in TLC. TLC prepares meals for those in the community who have had a recent birth, illness, death or catastrophe in their immediate family. Sue Belluardo continues to organize and lead TLC. She, and all the volunteers who participate in TLC, care and are there when needed. Thank you all! Contact Sue Belluardo at her email address suebelluardo@gmail.com. Contact Sue if you know of a family in need of some TLC assistance or if you can volunteer to prepare meals, when needed. |

SOCIAL COMMITTEE NEW CHAIR SOUGHT
|
A Social Committee chair would be a wonderful opportunity, especially for a new resident of Rio Vista, to get to know other new members of the community. Long-time residents might already have established their friendships but new members need to meet each other.
If you would like to get more social activities going in Rio Vista, please call 201-760-1258 to volunteer to head the Social Committee. |
