COMMUNICATIONS AT SOUTHERN COMFORT

Monday Morning Meeting: Every Monday at 9 AM, there is a meeting in the Hall to hear about this week’s activities from our Activity Director, Mary Benfield, and our Manager, Laura Burks, keeps us current on other resort issues like security and maintenance.  Note: In the summer the meetings are held on Tuesday at 9 AM.

Monthly Calendar: A calendar listing regular weekly events and special events is available shortly before the start of each month. They are available in the front of the hall on the tables behind the Coffee machine.

Swift 911: In case there is an emergency affecting people in the resort, we have a program that notifies our residents in advance. In order to get connected with Swift 911, you must contact the Business Office and ask them to include you in this program. Then you choose whether to be contacted by phone, text or e-mail.

Activities Blog (www.SouthernComfortActivities.blogspot.com) is the place to go to find out what is happening in the resort. If you miss a Monday morning meeting or didn’t catch the details on something that was said, the Minutes of the Monday Morning Meeting will be posted to this blog so that you have a way to review the information presented. It also has various pages that have helpful information about Southern Comfort especially for new people. There are also several links to web pages with information that is helpful if you are looking for something to do in the Rio Grande Valley or trying to figure out where you want to dance this week, etc. Check it out! No sign-up is necessary – just go to the website listed above.

Southern Comfort Friends Group: If you are on Facebook, sign up for the Southern Comfort Friends Group. This is a place where present and past residents including Winter Texans keep up with each other and what is happening at the park.
