New 2009 brochures have arrived

In an attempt to be a little "greener", we have scaled down the glossy 40 page brochure into a smaller, newspaper-style publication. While it does have fewer photos (we are encouraging folks to visit the website for info), it has all the critical info, such as a color map of sites, the rules, the cable channels and more. Be sure to pick up a copy at the office or at the gate. The major pool work has now been completed, and we have begun filling more pools. For this Mother's Day Weekend, there will be at least one of the adult whirlpool spas, as well as the diving pool open for all ages. We expect that the L pool will be open by next weekend, and hope to have the adult pool also filled by then. The rain on Monday & Tuesday delayed pool work until later in the week than we had hoped. In case you have not noticed, the menu for the grill and creamery is posted on the website (and can also be found in the new brochure). It is nice to see more of our snowbirds returning from FLA. The lawn crew will be starting to mow on May 11 now that Bud is back to supervise them (and Mary is back to supervise Bud). Speaking of two of our most loyal Yankee fans, it was a tough night in the Bronx on Tuesday. The rain mostly held off, and while there were plenty of strike-outs from Joba (Jen loved the goofy scoreboard animation every time he recorded one of his career-high 12 k's), those first 5 batters of the game created too big of a hole. No photos yet--I have to check with Jen to see if they came out OK (our view of the scoreboard was partially obstructed, thankfully). Just a reminder to pick up those breakfast tickets for Mom, and be sure to get her a raffle ticket or two for the big $2500 drawing on Sunday. We are currently receiving our annual visit from the fine folks from Woodall's, and hope to continue to earn the industry's highest possible ratings. Just a quick reminder that due to the Bruins playoff game, the Sox and Rays will not be on NESN Friday night (and they have the Sunday night ESPN game). Although I have not read the details, looks like A-Rod was not the only slugger using performance enhancers...I just wonder if Papi's drop in production is in any way related to Manny being gobe (not as an added bat in the line-up to protect him, but as a possible provider of something more). Last note...best wishes to Jerry Remy of NESN for a speedy recovery.
