Our last event, Bagels and Paint, went very well. Thank you for coming out and supporting our committee and the Art Barn. The next event is a Mentalist Show on Aug. 14 at 6 pm featuring Mark Stone. Tickets are $20 and may still be available. Please check with the attendant at The Lodge. You will be able to buy appetizers at the Kopper Kettle Bistro and coffee and water will be offered or you can bring your own favorite beverage. This will be theater-style seating and there will be door prizes and raffles. We are looking forward on seeing you at this event. It has been a long time for us to be out and have some fun. Please support your Social Committee. Can't wait to see you there! ~ Loretta Ramsey, lorettaramsey@aol.com, (714) 803-6744 Social Committee 26 FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | JULY 2021 By the time you read this article, many of the COVID-19 restrictions will have been removed. We will be outdoors more during the day and early evenings, so please wear bright-colored clothes and carry a flashlight at night. Walk on the sidewalk, never assume drivers can see you, and stay off the phone while you are walking. Cross the streets at marked crosswalks whenever possible, watch for turning vehicles, and obey traffic signals as a pedestrian or as a driver. Walking in the roadway is dangerous because vehicles and their drivers may not see you. Slow down while driving through our community and obey the speed limits. Four Seasons Circle is 30 mph, all residential streets are 25 mph, including Green Creek Trail. And, stop at all stop signs. These rules apply to bicycles and motorized bikes as well. The Fourth of July celebration in the Beaumont area promises to be a special day with the city of Beaumont having a fireworks show. Watch the Daily Report for the time the fireworks start. Remember, all fireworks, including sparklers, are illegal because they can cause serious injuries and very often cause fires. Please do not purchase, possess, or set off any fireworks at Four Seasons or in any other area of Riverside County. Be safe, stay healthy, and enjoy the fireworks being presented by professionals trained in the proper and safe use of fireworks. Happy Fourth of July to all our residents and your families from all of our Safety Committee members. We meet the first Tuesday of each month, so plan on attending one of our meetings. If you are interested in joining us on the committee, contact any of our Safety Committee members. ~ Jerry Monahan, (951) 212-8898 Safety Committee Landscape Committee As I was walking on a recent Friday to join my fellow Landscape Committee members at our appointed location, I ran into some friends and we discussed our watering schedules for our owner- responsible front and backyards. Our discussion included that way too many minutes were set on their timer. Experience has shown us that established plants and lawns only need light watering. Light watering means setting the run times from three to five minutes twice a day, seven or fewer days a week, in the early evening and early morning. Now that the summer heat is here, it is extremely important to be water wise. Take time to check your timer-set watering schedule. Have you looked closely at the new plants in our many pots, the bright flowers in our Lodge area, and the new color plants on many of our Four Seasons Circle corners? The committee is gaining experience on what plantings do well with our climate and soils. You are seeing these major changes as the original plantings have run their course. And, of course, we have the seasonal flowering plants to delight us as we walk by. As summer heats up, be water wise, and enjoy our newest plant additions. ~ Lynette Simonson, lynette.simonson@ gmail.com
