8 | SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | APRIL 2020 |
In order to save money and "go green," Sun Lakes is
exploring alternative landscaping maintenance and
replacement options. The flowers that are planted around
the community will be replaced by recycled plastic
flowers and/or solar powered flowers. The green areas
will no longer be mowed by humans, but by goats. We are
excited about these changes and know you will be as well.
As soon as we adopt our first 300 goats, we will take
suggestions for names. The individuals who propose the
winning names will each win a free dinner at Applebee's.
We will also be assigning goats to residents for care. You
will be asked to "foster" a goat for a period of three months
each year. The goat will live in your guest room for that
period of time. Management will reimburse homeowners
for money spent on food and goat accessories (collars,
hats, chew toys, etc.). Every quarter, the goat will be
"fostered" by a new family so everyone will have a chance
to love these wonderful new members of the Sun Lakes
family. We don't want anyone to bogart the goats!
Because the goat fostering will be a very popular
program, we have established a sign-up sheet at the front
desk in the Main Clubhouse. After the first 300 families
are selected, we will make a wait list for the following
quarter.
