• If you are using a money order for your monthly rent or assessment, it is very important that at a minimum, your lot number is included. We have received numerous payments that do not identify to which home it is to be posted. • The Park Office is still attempting to update everyone’s files and is asking for updated phone numbers, contact information and also a copy of the title(s) to your home. Please stop by or email the office with this information. Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated! • Just a reminder to all Serendipity shareholders, the Annual Membership Meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, January 13th in the East Clubhouse at 7:00PM. Please attend if at all possible. If not please remit the proxy that was sent to you in December as part of Annual Meeting packet. • There are also a few Shareholders who have yet to return their Voting Cer- tificate, so we have also included those in your packet with instructions as to how and who needs to sign off on these. Please keep in mind if they are not completed properly, you will not be able to vote in this year’s election. Call or email me with any questions you have regarding this form. • A list of Serendipity’s Rules and Regulations are posted on the bulletin boards in each of the clubhouses. We can also make you a copy of them if you so desire. Here are just a few of them: • Rules # 19 states in part that “automobiles must be parked in the driveway of your lot and are not allowed to park on the roads overnight, or ON LAWNS AT ANY TIME.” • Rule # 28 states that “Mobile Home Owners may not cross occupied lots without the mobile homeowners of that lot having given permission.” • Rule # 30 states in part that “All subletting residents must sublet for a minimum of three (3) months. Additionally, all new residents…must meet the same standards and require- ments for entry into the Park.” • Your cooperation in adhering to these and all the Rules and Regulations of the Community is very important in maintaining the quality of living in this Park. • No new major projects are on the horizon, just a continuation of trying to maintain and upgrade the Park where needed. • Thank all of you who contribute so much of your time and effort to keep Serendipity the high quality Park that it is, and I wish to extend to everyone a joyous, wonderful 2015. Happy New Year!

anuary is named after Janus, the god of the doorway. The name comes from Roman mythol- ogy, the door to the year. Janus has two faces which allowed him to look both backwards Jinto the old year and forwards into the new one at the same time. Originally, the Roman calendar ran only from March to December. January and February were added later. During the beginning of the sixteenth century, European countries began officially making January 1 the start of the New Year. The New Year in Britain officially began in January only after the calendar reform of 1752. Before that, it was celebrated on March 25.

• January is the coldest month of the year within most of the Northern Hemisphere and the warmest month of the year within most of the Southern Hemisphere. • Apart from leap years, January always begins on the same day as October. In leap years, January always begins on the same day as April and July. • January is the only month when the North Pole is on average colder than the South Pole. • The birthstone for January is the garnet, which represents constancy. • The birth flower is the cottage pink dianthus. The traditional English birth month flower is the carnation. • The zodiac signs for January are Capricorn (until January 19) and Acquarius (January 20 onwards). ...continued on page 9 6 serendipity sentinel JANUARY, 2015 N

Winter Quiz hat is El Nino? El Nino refers to a warming of the Pacific Equatorial waters and a slackening of the Trade Winds over those waters. Fisherman in Peru noticed that once Wevery several years, the waters would warm; the upwelling of cold water that brought nutrients to the fish would stop; the fish that fed on the nutrients would leave; and the birds that fed on the fish would leave.

They named it “El Nino” after the child, Jesus Christ, giving it a religious connotation because it seemed to occur around Christmas time. What is La Nina? La Nina is the opposite of El Nino.

serendipity sentinel JANUARY, 2015 N 9 Winter in Florida

any of you come to Florida to get away from the cold, snowy winters of the northern areas of the U.S. and Canada. Most winter temperatures we experience here in Florida Mare very mild and the coldest spells don’t last that long. Comparatively speaking, even our coldest winters can’t compare to those of the north (40°F doesn’t seem that bad compared to freezing temperatures or lower). And, there is no snow to shovel! We usually warm up within a few days. Most of the time the sun is shining and that makes it better! According to the weather experts, this winter will be colder and rainier than normal. The coldest temperatures will occur in early January, with other cool periods in mid- and late January. April and May will be hotter than normal, with above-normal rainfall.

As we inch closer to the winter we see all signs pointing to an El Nino in Central Florida and this can often mean wild weather in the form of severe thunderstorms, tornadoes and flooding rain. It's not a guarantee but most of the winter forecast will ride on the power of El Nino and how far south the Southern Jet decides to set up shop in Tampa-St. Pete. Past El Nino's have been a hit or miss with areas to the north getting the bulk of the rain and wild weather. We feel Central Florida will get its fair share of wild weather, especially in later December and January when we expect to see El Nino in full force.

Fun League Shuffleboard Rich Hill, 609-389-5440 un League shuffle will start this month. It is never too late to join the fun league. The team lists and schedule should be on the Shuffle Bulletin Board across from the West Clubhouse. FIf you have any questions, give me a call. 1-609-389-5440 or Lot 53. Shuffleboard John Barrett, 786-8638 Because the Fun League is just getting started, I will make one more appeal to new resi- dents and others who have not shuffled before to join us. The fun league plays on Tuesdays and Thursdays (and Fridays if we get a lot of new members). The game is a lot of fun and not difficult to learn – any club member can get you started. The “A” and “B” teams are both doing well in the Big Ten League and the Stirling League began play on December 3rd. The club has been looking into options for curtains around our new roof over. The only thing we feel certain about at this point is that they will be expensive. If you have any ideas for fund raising, I will listen! The banquet this season will be Sunday, March 22, 2015. I hear that some folks would a change of menu and that maybe we could have some entertainment. I hope that ALL members will attend meetings to provide direction on these (and other) questions. The meetings are always on the first Tuesday of the month at 3:30 (following the fun league game) in the West Clubhouse. I will see you there at the courts.

Winter Quiz Answers

1. c..Wind chill is the combination of wind and temperature and is based on the rate of heat loss from exposed skin. As the wind increases, heat is carried away from the body at an accelerated rate, driving the body temperature down. Wind chill has no effect on cars or other objects. 2. After a snowstorm left a foot of snow over the city on February 8, 1899, a record struck. On February 11, the temperature dipped to -15°F in the District. It was fol- lowed by a second great storm called "The Great Valentines Day Blizzard" which dumped another 20.5 inches of snow. That year DC saw a record 54 inches of snow. 3. Hail is a chunk or stone of ice dropped from a thunderstorm. Sleet is frozen rain. Freezing rain is liquid rain that freezes to a surface such as the road or a tree. 4. False. It has been known to snow with temperatures in the mid 40's. Temperatures are below 32°F up in the clouds where the snow is forming. 5. a. .10 inches of snow melts down to about an inch of liquid rain. 6. Nor'easters cause high winds and flooding along the coast and heavy snow and sometimes blizzard conditions inland over the Greater Metropolitan Washington area. Nor'easters are responsible for the areas's most hazardous winter weather. 7. January, February, and March. It is the latter half of the winter in the Washington area that brings the nor'easters that dump the majority of our snow. 8. The January 27-28, 1922 storm dumped 21 inches of snow in DC in 24 hours and had a storm total of 28 inches. It is known as the "Knickerbocker Storm" because the heavy snow caused the collapse of the Knickerbocker theater during a performance. One hundred people died inside. 9. Yes. Ice crystals sometimes fall from clear skies when temperatures are in the single digits or colder. 10. An inch of ice is heavier than wet snow and is hazardous enough to cause power lines and trees to come down. serendipity sentinel JANUARY, 2015 N 27 "Building Dreams...
