For us, there will never be any such thing as a letter that is not “priority mail.” The team here at your local post office is ready and willing to answer that call. They may not be tireless – they are human after all – but they take their creed and their commitment to excellent customer service seriously. While snow is rarely an issue here in sunny SCC, rain and heat certainly take their toll. But your postal workers are not deterred. They will get the mail through, and they will get it to you with a smile. In fact, if you are reading this at all, you can thank your local postman. Thousands of issues of NOKP go through your local post office each month, every issue delivered right to a mailbox, so you can keep up with all the great comings and goings and local news that makes living in Kings Point so wonderful. But who is that postmaster? The man who leads a team of 44 veteran mail carriers and other postal workers all dedicated to their creed and their community? Postmaster Mike McCullough accepted his position here in Sun City Center in July, 1999, after a distinguished career with the USPS that took him all over central Florida – from St. Petersburg to Lakeland to Palmetto and, finally, landing in SCC. He has enjoyed all of his stops, from part timer in St. Pete back in the early 80s to stints as a station manager and officer in charge, but he relishes his gig as Postmaster in Sun City Center. While the job includes oversight of substations in Apollo Beach, Ruskin and Sun City, most of the folks Mike and his team see on a daily basis are local to 33573, and that creates a real sense of a small town community. “We ank You Mr. Postman The SCC Post Office serves Ruskin and Apollo Beach as well. Postmaster Mike McCullough. Continued on Page 3 Since 1998, The Hope Fund for Children has brought its most important fundraiser, Breakfast & Bingo (B&B), to Sun City Center, and it’s still going strong! On Sat, October 27th, from 8:30 to 11 AM, come to Community Hall on South Pebble Beach Boulevard in SCC to enjoy another B&B. The admission price is still only $6.00 for an omelet of your choice, a bagel with cream cheese or a Danish, orange juice, coffee or tea. Bingo begins at 9:30. Bingo cards cost $1.00. Play for cash prizes! Tickets are available at the door. The Hope Fund is a 501(c)(3) organization made up entirely of volunteers who are dedicated to improving the lives of at-risk children who live in Wimauma and attend the after-school and summer programs at Bethune Park. Until recently the Park was part of the Hillsborough County Recreation Department, which still owns the property but no longer maintains the programs for the children. The Hope Fund now partners with RCMA to maintain the buildings and keep the programs going so that these children will have a safe place to go after school while their parents work. Currently, the main focus of the Hope Fund is to provide scholarships to those families who cannot afford the full cost of sending their children to Bethune Park. Also, this year, The Hope Fund gave $15,000.00 toward the cost of running the summer program and applied for a grant from the Community Foundation of Greater Sun City Center and received $20,000.00, which made the summer programs possible. Funds are raised by grants, donations and fundraisers. Along with a Board, The Hope Fund consists of people from SCC, including King’s Point, and other communities who volunteer as tutors, mentors, readers and reading instructors, runners who help with a running program to promote good exercise habits, and artists who encourage the children’s creative side. The Fund also runs a Kids’ Cafe that provides healthy snacks after school. There are some wonderful things going on for the children at Bethune Park. Come to Breakfast & Bingo on Saturday, October 27th from 8:30 to 11 AM at Community Hall in SCC and help the programs continue. The Fund can always use the help of volunteers for one hour a week. Specifically, a person is needed to help with the Marathon Kids running program, and someone is needed to conduct an art class for children around grade 5. Tutors, mentors, and readers are always needed. Please note that all the children speak English. For further information about The Hope Fund and Breakfast & Bingo, to volunteer, or to give a tax-deductible donation call Carla Miles at 634-4268. More information may be found at the Fund’s website at www.the- hope-fund.org. We hope to see you on October 27th!!

Club: Kings Point Art LeagueEvent: Artist of the Month - OctoberLocation: Kings Point North Clubhouse, Art RoomDates: October 6, 2012 - November 3, 2012Kings Point Art League’s “Artist of the Month” for the month of

October is Carol Ramsey. Carol raised three wonderful

kids in New Orleans. She moved to SCC with husband, Frank, following Katrina. A daughter and son now also live with their families in South Tampa and Bradenton respectively. Carol has served as Association President, and on the Federation Contracts and Documents committees. She is now a volunteer on the SCC Emergency Squad Team 3. Carol also serves as Treasurer of the Kings Point Art League.Carol’s artistic side was nurtured

in the Stained Glass Club with classes under glass-master, Carole Ericson, beginning in 2008. Later, she so admired the artwork of Diane Simon, that she enrolled in Diane’s watercolor classes in 2010. “I have learned so much more than I ever thought possible, while having the best of times sharing with others.”Please enjoy some of Carol’s artwork in the Display Window of the

North Club Art Studio during the month of October.

Relay For Life Coming UpSubmitted by Vivian Hodgkin

IT IS THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN- plans are beginning for the 4th annual Relay For Life of SCC which will take place in the Spring of 2013. We are hoping for a bigger and better Relay this year in our effort to raise funds for cancer research and other programs to assist those who are confronted with cancer. We celebrate survivors and caregivers at this event. I believe that nearly everyone has been touched by this disease and this is an opportunity to help find a cure. Funds are raised through sponsorships and Team fundraisers. We need at least two hours a month from each volunteer. At this time committee members and Team captains/members are needed. Please contact me, Vivian Hodgkin, at 813-634-3992 or Cathy Vallianatos, Community Representative-The American Cancer Society, 813-685-0670 (ext.5457). Who Can You Relay For?

COMING IN DECEMBERPlan Now for December Events

By Phyllis Hodges

No, it is not too early to reserve dates on your December calendar! Two major SCC events you will not want to miss are the first two Saturdays.DECEMBER 1 is the HOLIDAY WALK

on the Community Association’s Central Campus, 1009 N. Pebble Beach Boulevard. It’s open to the public and includes a breakfast in the Florida Room that starts at 7 a.m. and continues until noon. For only $5, you can enjoy pancakes, sausage, eggs, toast, coffee and juice, along with great holiday music by the Organ and Keyboard Club members. After breakfast, you will want to stroll around the decorated campus. The club rooms will be welcoming guests who wish to shop or browse their lovely handcrafted items. The rooms will be open from 9 a.m. until noon. Music and entertainment on campus will set the holiday mood. Info: Sam and Joann Sudman—633-3107 or [email protected] 8 is the GOLF CART PARADE AND WINTER FESTIVAL. The

parade, with a theme of “Tis the Sea-Sun” starts at 10 a.m. at the SCC Central Campus. The ambitious goal of this community effort (SCC Community Association, Kings Point, Freedom Plaza) is to break SCC’s previous record of 306 golf carts set in 2003. A second goal is to establish a new Guinness World Record category for Decorated Golf Carts. Every golf cart counts, so your participation is essential. Put on your creative cap and plan your cart either with a holiday or Florida lifestyle theme. The decoration doesn’t have to be elaborate, but there is a contest for big prize money. Minto is donating $5,000 for awards in four categories: 1. Individuals,

2. Clubs, 3. Condo Owner/Home Owner Associations and 4.Service Organizations. Prize allocations are: $500 for 1st, $300 for 2nd, $200 for 3rd and $100 for 4th place in each category. That’s not all. The entry winning Best in Show, to be selected from the four 1st place winners, will take home an additional $400 and a trophy. Info: Dave Birkett—634-2601 or [email protected] (Watch for registration information.)After the parade, add fun to your day with the WINTER FESTIVAL on

the campus. Sponsored by Minto, it starts at 11 a.m. and continues until 2:30 p.m. There will be food, music, entertainment, car show, pet show, vendor booths and more. Info: Channa Calzone—480-3578 or [email protected].

Dressed in holiday attire, servers cheerfully served several hundred people at last year’s Holiday Walk breakfast.
