Libby's weekly bird update

Libby's Weekly Bird Update
****************************

Parrots 101 - We have had a cold spell & the parrots were indoors from
Monday through Wednesday. Sami as always was wonderful in helping to give them time outside on Wednesday & putting them back in for Wednesday night. Thursday we put them outside & cleaned all 20 cages. Claire was a great help as well. G.W. from Jerry's was a terrific bird letting me trim his toenails & clip his wings. Caesar from Jerry's was, as usual, a menace & extremely noisy. Miss Libby will be away on a cruise from January 7-17 so drop by & say hello to the parrots as there will be no show for 10 days.

water shut off on tuesday, january 3

Dear Park Residents,

On Tuesday 1-3-12 between 9am and 11am the water will be shut off on streets 5E, 6E & 6W. There is a water leak in this area and the maintenance staff will need to manipulate the valves to see where the problem is located. We ask that you please limit your water usage during these hours it would be much appreciated. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

Thank you

mardi gras update

To All Park Residents:

This year's Mardi Gras is not being cancelled by the Park. The parade was always organized by the Park residents and the Park provided the picnic. In past years a committee was formed to work out all the parade details. A new committee will need to be formed and a chairperson or Co-Chairs will need to contact me to arrange for this event.

We intend to have the picnic on Fat Tuesday, February 21, 2012 even if a parade is not happening this year. Looking forward to meeting with the new committee as soon as possible.

Thanks,
David Muench

Here's a link to the SCCF native plant nursery price list ~ great prices! SCCF is a great resource with many volunteers ready to assist residnets in native plants please also note that Sanibel City Hall is all native plants and they are all marked so you can walk around and see in person.

It is very important to use native plants for landscaping. These plants do very well in our climate and require very little to no watering!

sanibel friends up north

a friendly reminder on the park's speed limit

Periwinkle Park Residents and Guests,

We welcome you all back to your small community
and hope that you all had a wonderful Summer.
   
As a community, we need to be mindful of our neighbors
and obey all the Park rules which are for the good of everybody. After the long FAST driving on the interstates, we forget what 7 1/2
feels like.  It is VERY S L O W (just a crawl) and slowing down here is VERY important. Please pay attention and keep the speedometer way below 10, just over 5 and we will all be most appreciative.  Slow down and enjoy your beautiful island.

Also, PLEASE note that the 7 1/2 MPH maximum speed limit is all the way from Nerita St. to Periwinkle Way and all park streets in between.

Thanks so much, 
Periwinkle Park Management and Staff

Dick, Jerry, David, Jodi, Evelyn, Lori, Diana, Rene & Jay
