PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
Recently our Board came across a treasure trove of documents
dating back to the beginning of Tuscawilla and the Tuscawilla
Homeowners Association. In the very first newsletter dated
October 14, 1971, the newly formed association stated its
purpose. Part of that purpose was “to promote and foster
a neighborly community interest among homeowners.”
Through the years the Association has worked to fulfill this
goal. Several years ago, we began what is now known as “The
Family Fun Day”. This was conceived by the Board to bring
the community together for an annual outing where residents
could gather, relax and enjoy some good food and fellowship.
Let’s face it, in this intense world, I think we all could use
an afternoon relaxing with neighbors and friends at Trotwood
Park enjoying great food, music and entertainment.
This year’s Family Fun Day is Sunday, April 12 from noon to
four pm at Trotwood Park. We have reserved the whole park,
and this event is a gift to you from the Tuscawilla Homeowners
Association for all residents of Tuscawilla and their guests. If
your household has paid their annual $40 membership your
lunch is free. If you haven’t paid, you can pay when you come,
or just pay for your lunch, but we want you to come. When you
get to the park, come to the registration table to check in and
get your wristband.
Events this year include a canine
demonstration by the Winter Springs
Police Department, a visit from the
Seminole County’s Sheriff Department
helicopter, live music, the Music Box
Singers, the Tuscawilla Line dancers,
wear your dancing shoes, the classic car
show, awards, presentations, great prizes
from our local merchants, and a raffle
which will include a very nice bike from Adventure Cycling.
There will be games and booths from Adventure Cycling, the
Winter Springs Police Department, and the Tuscawilla Garden
Club. To make this a really great picnic, we are again very
fortunate to have Stefano’s Trattoria be our caterer. Stefano’s
is normally closed on Sundays, but the owner is pleased to
provide us with a great menu which is fresh from their kitchen.
In this issue of Tuscawilla Today you can learn more about this
year’s Family Fun Day in the Park.
Come and bring your family and expect to make some new
friends. If you are a resident and somehow overlooked paying
your $40 annual membership dues, you can pay them on our website,
by mail, or in person.
