Ballots will be mailed to your

Homeowners’ Office as of
November 14, 2014. When you
return to the park and check in, be
sure to give the Homeowners’
Office
your
CURRENT
MAILING ADDRESS.
Owners of multiple lots, be sure
the H.O. office has the mailing
address of where you want your
ballot mailed to you for all of
the lots you own no later than
November 14, 2014. This will
ensure you receive a ballot for
each lot you own.
To save time when you check in
at the Homeowners’ Office--you
can change your own mailing
address on the City Property
Website: cityproperty.com
Page 4
1. Click on the Green “Owner
Portal” on left hand side of
screen. A block will come up in
the bottom of the screen with
“Homeowners Portal”
2. In that green block click on
“Homeowner Login.” IF you
have an account established, type
in your e-mail address and
password, then click “Login.”
Otherwise, click on “Create Your
Account” to set up your account.
There is a “Create Account
Tutorial” right there if you need
help with this.
3. In the Account Summary line
(2nd line), click on “mailing
address”
4. Click on “change mailing
address.” You now have two (2)
choices, “Use Property address as
mailing address” (your lot) OR
use “Following mailing address”
5. Make changes and Save the
changes. Simple as that! You
can do this when you leave the
park and when you return to the
park, rather than giving your
address change to Sandy or
Sandra in the office.
6. You still need to turn in a
change of address to the U.S. or
Postal Service (or Canadian, if
you are changing from a
Canada address to your Yuma
address for the winter).
Editor’s Note: I tried to add
both our CR properties under
the same account but was not
able. You may need to set up
separate logins for each
property in order to ensure
your ballots are sent to the
address you desire.

Shemwell, Election Chairmen,

our “Meet the Candidate
Forum,” December 8, at 1:00
p.m., in the ballroom. Please
mark your calendars. Lunch
will be available prior to the

BUILDING FUND
The summer of 2014 was very
good for the building fund. We
completed all projects on our
agenda, except the dishwasher
which is on hold pending CR
board approval. The sign and the
pickleball
court
are
both
excellent. The court side of our
center complex is looking very
good!!!! Over the summer Al and
Jean Schritter had great success
with their summer dinners,
expanding from one a month to
two a month for some months. All
of us here are looking forward to
the return of all the action that
will happen when you all come
back this fall.
Drive carefully,
Jim Stoner, President
A.C.C.
As you prepare for the new cool
weather season here in Country
Roads and are anxious to make
the changes to your property
that you thought of during the
summer, please don't forget to put
your
ideas
on
the
Lot
Improvement Plan forms and turn
them into the Office.
If you are planning to install or
replace a park model on your lot,
remember to visit with a member
of the A.C.C. prior to purchasing
the unit. We can help you cover
some
of
the potential
problems before they become a
problem for you. We are here to
help you get the improvements
you want on your property, and
still stay within the limits of the
Rules and Regulations.
For all of you who have corner
lots and were involved in the
Variance Request form the City
of Yuma, HALLELUJAH!!!, it
was approved. We can continue
to set the park models the way we
always have and not worry about
the setback encroachment on the
corner.
Have a safe trip down to
Yuma for another great year of
fun in the sun in Country Roads.

Ruth Dunn
Tennis Club President
BILLIARD CLUB
Welcome back all of you Early
Birds. I hope you had a fun and
safe summer. As is often the
case, since you were here last,
there is some sad news to report.
One of our long time and regular
playing members, Jack Osborn,
passed away this summer. Jack
was having health issues last
season but loved to play pool
every time he was able. Also Jim
Johnston’s wife, Linda, is
receiving treatment
for a
recurrence of breast cancer. Our
thoughts and prayers are with Jim
and Linda as they are working to
get through this so they can
return to the park this season.
Over the summer, the park
included the Billiard Room in its
remodeling projects. They gave it
a “floor face lift” by replacing the
carpet in the room. This was a
pretty big job with one of the
biggest challenges being moving
the tables out of the way and then
back in place after the carpet was
laid. The Billiard Club and CR
management certainly wanted us
to be involved in that part of the
project and, as always, Bruce
Edwards was more than willing to
help. Bruce figured out how to
move all of the pool tables and
the snooker table without
dismantling them, saving several
thousand dollars and many man
hours of work. He still had to tear
down and reinstall the billiard
table since it is too heavy to move
in one piece.
The maintenance crew provided
the muscle for the billiard table
work and helped move the pool
tables out of the way. Bruce, with
help from daughter, Kathleen, and
George
Starcher,
moved
everything back in the proper
position. Since the tables were
getting moved anyway, they were
replaced six inches farther from
the wall which should alleviate
some interference with the chairs.
The Billiard Club owes Bruce a
big “Thank You” for a job well
done.
We are looking forward to seeing
everyone for another fun season
at Country Roads and in the
Billiard Room. Please wipe your
feet before coming in.
Terry Moser
Billiard Club President
ZUMBA
Start the winter season off right
with a fun filled get fit regimen. If
you don't like to exercise but love
THE “COURIER”
www.countryroadsyuma.com
music and dancing, then Zumba
Gold is for you. No experience is
necessary! This Latin inspired
work out will get you smiling and
feeling so happy you came. Join
the party in the ballroom on
Saturdays, beginning November
1st at 10 a.m. and Thursday
mornings, beginning November
6th at 9 a.m.
Drop in is $5.00 or buy a punch
pass of 10 sessions for $40.00.
These passes, available at the
beginning of every class, can be
shared and transferred to friends.
Out of Park guests are welcome
but may not use passes purchased
from other Parks. Only punch
passes purchased at Country
Roads from Rebeca for the
2013/2014 season, as well as the
new 2014/2015 passes, will be
honored.
Men are welcome 'for free' until
we reach the '10' mark. Gents,
take advantage of this limited
offer. If you tire easily, if this is
your first class after some length
of time or if you are completely
new to Zumba Gold, try not to sit
during the class but rather
continue to move your feet since
your heart rate will now be
elevated. Pace yourself & take it
slow. If necessary, this class may
be executed from a chair or with
the aid of a chair. Ask myself or
Rebeca for suggestions.
Please stay for the cool down to
give your heart rate a chance to
slow gradually and enjoy the
stretching, which will aid in
preventing cramps & sore
muscles. If you have any issues
Page 7
with blood pressure, never put
your head lower than your heart,
rather look up when bending or
stretching. Wear lose comfortable
clothing suitable and remember to
bring
water.
Everyone
is
welcome!!

the move south. I know I am
certainly looking forward to

who is interested in becoming
more involved with our club
please email me asap at

Welcome back to Country Roads

you have all had a wonderful
summer back home.
I am still up in Washington,

Steve, returns to Yuma to spend

sure to put the name of your
club or activity IN THE
SUBJECT LINE OF THE
EMAIL, along with the month
(for example, A.C.C. Nov.).
This makes it much easier to be
sure I have the content from all
of the many emails I receive,
and to not miss anyone’s news
for that month.
NOVEMBER 12th: WELCOME
BACK PARTY. We hope to see
you there.
When I look at the CR gmail
account and see new emails, I
send a reply to let the sender
know I have received it. Please
be patient with me. Sometimes I
get very busy and forget to look
at the CR email account for a
few days. If I have not replied
after 3 days, please feel free to
send your email again, or email
to ask if I have received it.
Cheers,
Susan Fimrite, President
CR Computer Club, Lot 619

I appreciate receiving your
email submissions for the
following month by the 8th of
the month before. It takes quite
a bit of time to edit and I need
THE “COURIER”

to have it to Melissa in plenty of
time for her to finalize it and
have it printed for you.
Thank you,
Julie Hanenkrat, Lot 74
