Why are there so many
potential involvements?

Answer: As new residents
have joined the community, many have added an activity they liked and that attracted
inte
rest from others. After
83 years, they have built
an awesome list!

What if I have an interest
I would like to pursue that
is not on the list?

Answer: Introduce your
interest to the community;
many others may share
your interest but lack
the skill you have that
could bring yet another
great activity to the
community!

In how many activities can
a resident become involved?

Answer: As many as one desires. There are so many choices, many pursue multiple interests. Some elect to change two or three
activities each year in order to have time to try new things.
