News For The Residents at Lakes of FairhavenOctober 2015 Volume 3, Issue 10

Hello neighbors and friends! I hope everyone had a wonderful summer. By now all the

kiddos are back in school and excited about being with their friends and fellow classmates. As we move into fall and winter months, it is time to begin thinking of booking your Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas or even some of your school events. The Walden Country Club takes pride in having all of our Walden residents utilizing the facilities for dinners, meetings, or other social activities for school or clubs. The staff and the chef will work with you on food offerings and other needs. Please contact Cheryl Johnson @ 832-445-2104 to reserve your special date.

It is also time to begin thinking about that special gift for the holidays. Maybe new golf clubs or tennis racquets, or even some sports clothes for your spouse or children. If you are new to the area, maybe a golf or tennis membership. You might consider filling a stocking with golf balls, tennis balls or even a lesson or two from our wonderful pros. If you need help, just visit the golf or tennis shops for assistance. The price is always right!

Changes around the club continue to occur. Hopefully you have seen the changes at the tennis courts or on the golf course,

A Letter from Your Board of Govenors Chairman

but have you seen the on-going change inside the Workout facility? Mike Beatty and Jon Schlemmer continue to update the facility with new flooring and a new work out weight room complete with mirrors, better lighting, etc. The plan is for continuous improvement in all facets of the club whether it is physical changes or service changes; the attitude is more friendly and helpful with an approach to make what we have even better. Please provide your ideas for improvement in the suggestion boxes located throughout the club or directly to Jon.

On the information front, CBONS/CBIGGs continue their research and plan for rebuilding or renovating our facilities. Let’s hope that they are able to start soon. It is obvious to most of us that have met with them that their vision is to make our club the best in the area.

Fall is a great time of year. With a blistering summer behind us, we look forward to cooler weather and some of the most cherished holidays of the year. Fall can also represent an increased number of activities and commitments. Here are some ideas to make the most of your Fall Season.

1) Step away from the electronics - Often we worry about how much time our kids spend on their phones, iPads, etc. Adults can often use some of that advice too. Stepping away from technology can be a great way to remember that there are other meaningful things we can do each day.

2) Give Thanks – Take time each day to ponder the things you’re thankful for. It’s so easy to get worn down by the all the responsibilities we have. Remembering the blessings in our lives is a great way to recharge and reset our priorities. Want to take it up another level? Write these thoughts in a journal.

3) Take a walk – Who doesn’t love the idea of taking a walk on the beach or a hike (at least a short one) in the mountains? Often a walk through the neighborhood, on the trails, or even a parking lot at work can help us get our energy going and allow us to get the most out of our days.

4) Do Yoga – The health benefits are countless. If you can’t find the time for a class, practice the breathing at home. It’s amazing the impact that several deep breaths can have on our ability to relax more fully.

5) Write to a friend/family member – Yes, pen and paper. There are few things that can compete with the power of a handwritten note. In a day of texting, social media “likes” and emoticon gestures, recipients of hand written notes will recognize the significance of your friendship. The time it takes you to write can serve as an opportunity to reflect on how much you really care about the recipient.

6) Take your own Coffee Break – There’s something powerful about coffee breaks. Whether you choose coffee, tea, or a glass of water, the key to taking a successful break is truly pausing from work and enjoying a few minutes of well …. nothing. Just BE.

7) Perform an Act of Kindness – Life experience has convinced me that small acts of kindness are more rewarding and fulfilling than any self-indulging activity. Just think of something nice you can do and do it. It’s that simple.

If you’re in the market to buy or sell your home, look no further than my team, The Tracy Montgomery Team. It is more important than ever that you have the right Realtor representing you. The Tracy Montgomery Team continues to lead the market in home sales and customer service satisfaction.
