4 SOLERA DIAMOND VALLEY | JANUARY 2021 By Tom Lontz, President, Board of Directors 2020, what a year! Had you ever heard of COVID-19 or Zoom before? Now they are household words. Who would have thought sport team face masks would be a great holiday gift? 2020 offered challenges around every corner. Virtual meetings, social distancing, and a run on small turkeys. Through it all our committee and club chairpersons made it work. They Zoomed, used sign-up sheets, and reservations to enable committees to function and clubs to have some enjoyment through the pandemic. I want to thank all the chairpersons, volunteers, and residents for making it work. COVID-19 and Zoom will with be with us for several months this new year. All of us will have to continue to use the new normal methods to hold meetings and fun events. We will continue to look for even better ways to accomplish what we must do and what we like to do. So, as we head into 2021 let us focus on the future. Let us search for new ways to make our community a great place to live. The Board is committed to this goal; however, we can only accomplish this goal with your help and support. Wishing you the best. Happy New Year!
