| LIFE IN SOLERA | MARCH 2024 | 33
We think of March as the beginning of Spring as it
brings the vernal equinox, the return of Daylight-Saving
Time, and those desires for outside activities. How about some
gardening, pickleball, tennis, golf, hiking, or simply longer strolls
throughout our neighborhood. Don't forget to grab a bottle of water
and then add it to your recycle bin for the Sunshine Club. We truly
appreciate your collection and donation of recyclables each month.
These efforts allowed us to send out approximately 25 cards and four
gifts of flowers or fruit over the last two months!
Let's take a moment to talk about recycling! We accept all plastic
water, juice and tea drink bottles with caps removed and labels
securely attached to the container, as well as all aluminum cans (for
which you paid the redemption fee). Each recyclable item must
be clearly imprinted on its label or side or even top with the words
CA-CRV or CA CASH REFUND. We do NOT accept any glass even if
it meets the above criteria. We have found that breakage
becomes a real hazard to our volunteers as we must go
through every bag and sort it into plastic vs. aluminum and then by
the type of plastic as noted on the bottom of the container. For this
reason, we would also like to ask that you make sure all containers
are emptied and rinsed before placing them in bags to bring to the
Sunshine Club Recycle drop off by the mail room. Thank you for all
your effort and support!
We look forward to seeing you at the Craft Fair this month. Stop
by for some coffee, cookies, and a warm smile! If you have any
questions about our club or activities, feel free to ask one of our
members or contact Diane Coffman at (949) 295-1097. We meet on
the third Wednesday of the month at 1 pm in the Arts & Crafts Room
and would love for you to join us!
SUNSHINE CLUB
Sunshine Helpers Needed!
Chronic illnesses, hospitalization, and/or death can hit people hard. If you have a friend or neighbor
here in Solera who needs a spark of sunshine, let members of the Sunshine Club know. For your
convenience, the yellow Sunshine Box is located on the table in the Mail Room where you can drop
off the information for a resident or residents who are sick or have experienced a death in the family.
Sometimes just a card or telephone call will brighten someone's day immensely.
