Smoke Signal January 2020

SMOKE SIGNAL

Sundance 1 RV Resort

From the Manager’s Desk

Happy New Year and Welcome to 2020!  Will it be a Repeat of the Roaring 20’s?

We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas & a festive New Year – whether you were here at the park or spent the holiday with family elsewhere.

The 2 Old Dudes made our delicious hams for Christmas and the Prime Rib dinner for New Year’s Eve. We are truly blessed to have them here at Sundance!!

Our park is getting fuller every day and soon we will be at capacity.  We ask that everyone remember to the speed limit is 15 mph in the park and that goes for all types of transportation – trucks, cars, motorcycles, golf carts and bicycles!!  Also be extra careful when pulling out of your driveways and going thru intersections as there are an increase of walkers on the roads too.

The front office hours will be changing to 9 am – 4 pm Monday thru Friday starting January 2nd.  The Post Office Hours will remain 9 am – 3 pm Monday thru Friday and 10:30 am – 12:30 PM on Saturday.  Mail & Packages can only be retrieved during Mailroom open hours. For after hours, in the case of medical emergency ONLY, by the Mailroom employees (Mike & Stacy) or the Managers (Tom & Kate).  There are new procedures in place for picking up packages and the rule must be adhered to by everyone.

Deb has planned another month filled with all kinds of entertainment and activities for everyone to get involved in.  Be sure to stop by the Activities office to check out what’s all happening and get yourself signed up!!

As a little reminder from Tom – January is a good time to change the battery in your smoke and carbon dioxide alarms – better to be safe than sorry – it only takes a few minutes and could save a life!

We are so pleased y’all have chosen to spend time here at Sundance for your winter getaway!!

Again – we wish you a very blessed New Year!

Kate & Tom Ebert – Managers

Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.

Activities

For all emergencies medical or fire related please call 911. Have another person call 520-426-9662 to reach the main office during business hours or the host during non-business hours. Sundance no longer owns their own phone lines and any rooms that had a phone number is no longer valid.

We have 2 AEDs (automated external defibrillator) in the Sundance community. One is in the laundry room (SD1) and the other is now located in the Ranch House (SD2) in the work out room.

Please keep in mind that we are a scent free park. Many residents and guests do have medical challenges that may be triggered by a fragrance. It doesn’t matter if you’re indoors or out, the sensitivity is still there and we certainly don’t want anyone to have a medical emergency. You will be asked to leave an event, so you can remove your perfume or cologne. Thank you for your cooperation.

Room calendars, current month calendars, weekly and Ranch House schedules are in labeled trays in Activities. We do update them periodically so do make sure you have the most current version that is available. Our Dance/Entertainment schedule through March is available as well.

Safety first! When walking at night, please use a flashlight so others can see you. Dark clothing, dark nights and limited lighting doesn’t work in your favor when walking. Our traffic and population are increasing and we want everyone to have a safe season.

Join us every Monday 8:30am sharp at the Hole in the Wall for the Sundance Round Up Meeting. The meeting is for all residents and guests who want to learn more about what is happening in the park. Often, we have a speaker who will give a short presentation about their services they have available to us. Coffee, tea, and morning munchies are available. Whether you’re a long timer at the park or a short timer, please to join us.

Name badge…. why do I need to wear it? A name badge is a very important piece of your attire believe it or not! We have many new residents and staff that would like to know your name and this is a great way to get to know you. Should you become ill or incapacitated your name badge helps us identify you and locate your spouse, significant other or friend. Many of our activities require you to wear one in order to participate. So please, wear your name badge to help us help you and as always, thank you.

Activities sells clothing, ice, individual stamps, tickets for food and various events, we have quarters for laundry, name and guest badges, and much, much more! The Lost & Found bin is located in our office and is overflowing already.  Please check the bin if you notice you’re missing clothing or other types of apparel. At the end of the season we will donate all unclaimed items.
