“Here’s what’s happening in our neck of the woods” April 2012
A message from BJ…
Another Winter Season is coming to an end here at Aripeka West. I have met so many wonderful people this year and I am sorry to see them leaving and heading back north for the summer. Aripeka West will just not be the same without them, but our quiet summer months will allow us to make some much needed improvements in the RV Park. When our winter guests return in October and November they are sure to be happy with the improvements. I am sure going to miss everyone, WOW what a Great Winter it has been, Great Weather, Great Guests, Great Fun! You will still be able to receive our Newsletter, if you make sure that we have your correct mailing or email address. You may also view the Newsletter online at our blog, AripekaWest.Blogspot.com SEE YOU ALL NEXT FALL!
Easter at Aripeka West…
On Friday April 6th at 6:30PM, we will have a “Let’s Grill Out” to celebrate Easter. Please bring your favorite meat to grill, the grill will be “HOT” and the park will supply the side dishes and condiments, please join us for Easter at Aripeka West! We will have an Easter Egg Hunt. Looking forward to seeing you!
This month at the park…
We have completed our work on #197, new paint, inside and out, new flooring, new stairs for the entry, it really does look nice!
Work is almost complete at #164, the inside has been painted and the flooring is being replaced now, the outside will be painted in the next week and this unit will be our newest “SWAN” and be ready for someone to call it home.
The RV Park Restrooms are next on our “to do” list. We are planning to tile the showers, floor to ceiling and also tile the lower portion of the walls in the rest of each restroom. We will add new accessories.
Pressure washing and painting the exterior of our mobile homes will continue in the summer months and we will be coating the roofs of our units.
RV & Mobile Home Park Rules…
Lately we have noticed that there are some who live in the park, along with their guests who are not aware of our Park Rules. The Park Rules are in place for the benefit of all who live in Aripeka West and their guests. The Park Rules are very simple and it should not be a problem for any resident or their guests to follow them. In the next few days, you will receive a copy of the Park Rules, please take a moment to read the rules and if you have questions, please ask. In addition to a copy of the rules, you will receive a form to update your records here at Aripeka West. Please fill it out and return it to the office at your earliest convenience.
Neighborhood Watch…
While we do not have a sanctioned Neighborhood Watch Program in place yet, please be aware of what is going on around the park and around your lot. If you see something that does not look right, it probably is not right! We are still working on setting up our official Neighborhood Watch, it is a little harder than first expected. We do ask that you watch out for your property and for the property of your neighbor. Please call the proper authorities to report suspicious activity and make the office aware of any police reports.
Do you want to have a Yard Sale???
The Spring Yard Sale scheduled for March 31, 2012 was cancelled due to lack of interest. We must have at least 10 households participating to make a Community Yard Sale successful. We will await you input before trying to reschedule the Yard Sale.
Summer Events...
Summer is the quiet time here at Aripeka West. We will continue to have Pot Luck Dinners and other events throughout the summer. We have games we can play including Darts, Cornhole Toss, Horseshoes, Croquet, Dominoes, Chess, Poker and other Card Games. Tony in Lot #30 is currently looking for card players, if you are interested in playing cards; there is a sign-up sheet on the bulletin board on the Pavilion. We also have Karaoke Equipment we can set up for a party if anyone is interested. If you have an idea for an event, please let us know.

Good Morning Aripeka West…
Our Wednesday Morning Coffee and Breakfasts will be on off season break after Wednesday April 11. We have certainly enjoyed our Good Morning Aripeka West Breakfast Events! They will begin again in October.
Welcoming Gardens…
We are going to be planting gardens with flowers in April. One of the gardens will be at the front gate. It will offer residents and their guests a warm welcome when they enter the park. Other gardens will be planted under the murals painted on the sheds near the Pavilion. We also want to do some planting on the trail behind the RV Park. Anyone who enjoys gardening is welcome to help.
