Paint Your Heart Out Tampa
Luckily there was an underwhelming response to our posting on this topic last month. After submitting a resident's name to the PYHOT commission, we learned that metal and vinyl homes are not acceptable for the program. No they will not come into our park to paint homes of needy individuals.
Of course that doesn't mean that WE can't do it. I would be very interested to learn if there is anyone in the park willing to assist a homeowner in need. Please leave a comment.
Is anyone really out there?

Candidates Night
For just under 2 hours earlier this evening, close to 200 Regency Cove residents listened to and questioned the 11 candidates running for office to fill the four Board vacancies. President Ellen Nimon chaired the event by introducing the candidates, and timing their 10 minute presentation. All of the candidates should be congratulated, first for giving of their time and running, and second, for well delivered presentations before the large assembly.
As a candidate just one year ago, I remember all too well the nerve-wracking preparation and the delivery of this short presentation.
The shareholders have an awesome task right now of sorting out the right people for the job who will represent their wishes. True democracy in action. Make sure you are careful filling your ballot and marking the envelope correctly, so that your ballot will be counted. March 12 is Election Day, bring your ballots to that meeting. They can also be handed in early to the Office.
Just a short postscript: Many of the candidates tonight stressed the need for better communication in the park. My dear neighbor Nancy shared with me the hand written resume when her husband Bob Malmquist ran for the Board in 1995. Beneath his educational qualifications, and considerable experience, he listed his "platform" ( 3 words only) "Let's improve communication!!" Some things never change.
