October 2019 Camelot East Village Sun 6300 Queensbury Blvd. • Sarasota, FL 34241 ● 941-923-2311 • 800-843-2311 Toll Free A Cove Community Manager’s Minutes 86 days until Christmas? My, does time fly when we are having fun! Christmas???? October brings in a little cooler weather and lots of events for our residents. We are having a Movie Night, Deck Party, Hot Dogs at the Summer Kitchen (Hot Dogs are a surprise and delight) among other exciting events. What is a Surprise and Delight? Cove wants us to " Surprise and Delight" Camelot East Residents with random acts of kindness. That is why we come to the pool area, on random days and times, to provide beverages, ice cream and snacks to those who are at the pool. This is all done randomly. I will, from time to time, grill hot dogs on the grill for those at the pool area and anyone who is in the building. There will be times we will pick a home and pull weeds at that home. We can't do it all the time and for every home but we do like to " Surprise and Delight" our residents when we can! All “Surprise and Delight" random acts of kindness are done at no cost to the residents. Thank you for allowing us to serve you, our wonderful and kind residents!
