Please stay safe and Happy Holidays! e Perfect Holiday Gi By Tom Porter, President I hope you had a wonderful Halloween and a more fantastic Thanksgiving when you read this! Last article I wrote about safety, well it goes both ways. Whether it's pulling out of the driveway or walking. My previous message was intended to bring awareness of safety to everyone. It's important to always be aware of our surroundings. Our wonderful technology in our pocket allows us to do a lot of things we never thought of. However, since it is our norm and we can't help but watch videos or even text, paying attention is important to prevent any accidents. Since we're in the realm of safety, there is an issue I found concerning. I encourage all residents within the community to update or make sure their emergency contacts are up to date. There have been times where my officers would attempt to call the emergency contact but the number is no longer in service. Or update the location of either a spare key or neighbors with a key to the home. All these being updated helps my officers help you. We're heading into the holiday season, so enjoy and have a wonderful time with family and friends! May you make wonderful memories as 2024 is coming to a close and have Happy Holidays! Thank you, OHCC residents, for your vital role in our community. We greatly appreciate your cooperation in adhering to the rules. We are committed to serving you and the community; your feedback is invaluable. If you have any concerns or suggestions that you would like to see addressed in a future issue of Living Magazine, we encourage you to share them. Please feel free to contact me via email or phone. My office at the front gate is always open for Ocean Hills Country Club residents. ~ Tony Duong, Account Manager, Securitas Security Services, (760) 766-1458, cell (760) 505-2146, Tony.Duong@securitasinc.com Community Patrol Services
