| Four Seasons Hemet Herald | APRIL 2024 | 17 What is Team Sunshine? Our mission statement: Team Sunshine is an all-volunteer service group whose purpose is to reach out to Four Seasons residents in their time of need, to provide education, and to spread goodwill. How do we fulfill our mission? We send get well, sympathy and thinking of you cards. This activity is followed by a followup phone call. We assist families in planning celebrations of life. Sunshine greets newcomers to our community and sponsors a caregiver support group. We will deliver meals in a limited timeframe from the Bistro to those who are unable to leave home. We do not provide caregiving. We leave this to the professionals. Our Caregiver Team Lead has compiled a list of available services in our community. Team Sunshine also sponsors the Health Fair in May and the Shot Clinic in the fall. What about Team Sunshine? We are a volunteer group of "givers" from the Four Seasons community. We have a monthly meeting (first Monday of the month) at 10:30 am in The Lodge Ballroom. We invite you to join us at an upcoming meeting and see what we are all about. If you wish to talk with us, please feel free to call one of our Team Sunshine Co-Chairs, Brenda Beers at (951) 306-6670 or Margie Culton at (951) 491-4058 Team Sunshine Caregiver Support Meetings are the first Wednesday of the month at 10:30 am at Suzanne and George McGowan's home (7747 Dutra Drive). For information, please call Suzanne at (831) 905-6203. On March 26, Team Sunshine held our first Sunshine Program since the pandemic. Paul Lavigne, Four Seasons resident, engaged attendees in his presentation of Legacy Planning – "A Final Gift." It is our plan to offer programs a couple of times a year. If you have topic suggestions you would like to see presented, please contact us. We have been notified of the passing of Richard Burnside, Mary Holton and Anne Balensiefer. Team Sunshine has reached out to their families to offer our condolences and assistance if needed. Members of Team Sunshine assisted with a wonderful celebration of life for Shine Chamberlain on Sun., March 10.
