Sun City Palm Desert Residents

Regarding meetings, it would probably be better initially to discuss with front desk as to room availability (times and days).
I am under the impression that rooms are more likely to be available in the evening.

@mschwartz said in Preferred time and frequency of meetings:

I suggested the 2PM Tuesday meeting this week because I knew we were able to get 10 people to show up at a resident’s home the previous Tuesday at 2PM.

This day and time may not be ideal for everyone to come and participate. In that light, I’d like to ask everyone if Tuesday at 2:00 is good for you, and if you want to suggest a different day and/or time, reply to this post.

We can gather the top few recommendations and have a poll using this site about which day and time to meet going forward.

For the next meeting, I’m hoping I can line up the sheriff to come speak and listen to our concerns and to help us set up the neighborhood watch program.

For each meeting, I would like for any one of us to propose a subject to focus on (security, home solar power, security systems, health care…) and to invite a speaker. Is that OK? Again, reply to this post.

For subjects that have a pro and con side, I’d love to see us invite a person from both sides to speak, or to have one of us speak to either side so we have as much information as possible in coming to our own conclusions about issues facing us.

One of the best things about this site is that we can have virtual meetings that are asynchronous. This means, we can use topics to discuss our “club” business and people don’t have to be online at the same time. You can come and post replies or new topics at any time and anyone else can reply at any time.

The face to face meetings are always a good thing as we get to know our neighbors much better and it gives us practice in speaking in front of a group - this may come in handy if we show up at board meetings to speak up about subjects we care about.

We should ask Judy to participate in the development of surveys and the prioritization of objectives (at least for the next several months).

My wife &I went to 2nd clubhouse last night at 6:20pm. Did you get to talk with the Sheriff about Neighborhood watch?

Just a note to let you know your efforts are appreciated.
In response to your question about time for meetings,
For me, any time other than Monday or Tuesday morning works.
