Temps are cooler in the mornings now, so Pickleball hours have changed to 8-10 am everyday of the week.


News Flash! Pickelball B Squad Hours are 10Am to 12 Noon!

Thirsty Thursday....New Start Time 4 pm


We're having Thirsty Thursday, Esperanza Estates' Happy Hour, this week on Thursday, November 09, at the Ramada. With our bit cooler temps, we are moving the start time to 4 pm. This is a no-host event, so everyone brings their own beverages and maybe a snack to share. Most importantly, bring yourselves on over to the Ramada for a fun and friendly visit. Hope to see you there!


Gardeners

From Mary Harp


"The Gardeners will meet 8:30 am on Tuesday morning, November 7th, at Flag Park (corner of Esperanza and Holgado).  Bring tools for weeding, pruning and clean-up. New members are always welcome to join us. Call Rod Harp at 520.329.9103 with any questions.


Wanted from EE residents - your unwanted terracotta pots, yard art and small plants for our EE Garden Club sale on December 2. We can pick up donated items at your location. Contact Rod Harp at 520.329.9103."


PUMPKIN CARVING CONTEST and HALLOWEEN POTLUCK DINNER WAS A GREAT SUCCESS!


 The costumes didn’t disappoint, and the carving contest was equally creative.  As always, there was plenty of food…if you missed this year’s party be sure to come next year as it is a great way to welcome back the snow birds, have a great meal and reconnect with people we haven’t necessarily seen since last spring.


If you want to join this fun Hospitality Committee reach out to Robin Lockwood at 612-618-5582, robinodino@gmail.com as there is always room for another energetic team member.

Spa Status Update


The SPA is officially open as of 6:00 AM this Friday morning. Marcos from Desert SunSet completed applying cool decking material late yesterday & now after curing the last 12 hours the SPA is again ready for use.  


The SPA water leak was difficult to find & difficult to correct because the leak was back under the cool decking. Thanks to all the SPA users for their patience!


Thanks, Gary Rautio
