The Caper – November 2023 Edition

Now that another successful Halloween is in the books, the Christmas music has already begun. I can hear Mariah Carey singing in the background. Too early? That’s up to you to decide.

In Beau’s Presidential message in this month’s Caper he thanks many of the community members (Mary Lamb and Joe Peterson from Til Next Time Salon) for a very successful Movie Night held at the main beach. He also talks about Cape Conservation Corps successful fall plant sale along with the first En Plein Air event held at Little Magothy. So many great events in this great community. It’s also time to talk really serious CSCIA news. It’s BUDGET season! In this month’s Caper he lays out the budget for FY2025. Don’t miss it.

In Frank Tewey’s message, he also discusses the budget for FY25 and all of the details therein. It’s important for all of us to understand how CSCIA manages the communities money. In addition, the marinas will be winterized on November 30th with all the plumbing shut off and all lines drained at Deep Creek and Lake Claire. Mark your calendars slip holders!

In other community news, The Garden Club will be hosting their Terrarium Workshop on November 7th at the Cape St. Claire Clubhouse. Also mark your calendars for their Evergreen Wreath Workshop on November 29th. More details in side this Caper!

Cape Conservation Corps has a great write-up in this month’s Caper about the value of trees. In addition, they have information on their Ivy removal coming up on December 9th… location is TBD.

The 5th annual holiday tree lighting is scheduled for Sunday November 26th at 6:00pm at the Community’s Entrance Guard Shack. It’s a must see yearly event! Don’t miss it!

Santa is coming to the Cape St. Claire Clubhouse on Saturday December 9th, 2023. There are two time slots – 8:30 and 10:30am. These seats go quickly so I would view this Caper right now and submit it to Mary Lamb. Details and the submission form for this amazing event are in this month’s Caper!

Be sure to take the time and read through the budget for Fiscal Year 2025 … the whole thing is in this month’s Caper. It’s important.

See you around the Cape!
