Katie,

 

How are things are going with the sign construction.  Could you give us a brief update?  I see that you got the footer dug and we saw the pictures.  Any word on what’s happening next? What can we do to help?

 

Jim S.

 

Jim,

 

Thanks for your continued interest and support in the construction of our entry sign. The footer has been dug and we are now awaiting rebar for the footers. Once that is completed we can more forward with the concrete pour and from there the actual construction of the sign. It is an exciting venture for all of us and we anxiously await the day of the signs completion. As far as helping- please contact project manager Eugene Wise at 662-1446. We are in urgent need of both skilled and unskilled individuals to help.

I would like to make my annual donation but was unable to go to the groundbreaking. Is it possible to mail it in and if so where?

 

Lila T.

It’s a small price to pay for the assurance of living in such a wonderful neighborhood without the burdens of HOAs. Our mailing address is The Friends of the Heights, P. O. Box 2233, Jupiter, Fl. 33468. Thanks again for your willingness to do your share.

Hello!
My name is Maria Soljic, I live in the Heights on Garrett Street. My mother-in-Law lives on Michael Street. We are so happy and lucky to live here, it's been a great 2 years!

Mother-in-Law, Sanija Soljic has a cleaning company, 12 years in business.  We are looking to have her name/contact info listed in the Directory.  Several of her clients are snowbirds, so she is needing new work and her dream is to build a client base here in our own neighborhood.

What are the steps to be listed on the directory? Please let me know what info you require and the best way to get it to you in time. Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely, Maria Soljic

 

Maria,

 

Thanks for taking the time to contact us. We welcome the opportunity to add your mother in law to our service directory. Because the page is all about Heights residents we are able to offer her exposure at a greatly reduced rate. It is a great way to get the information out and gain much needed business within your own community. Please give me a call at 635-2884 and we can discuss which listing would best suit your mother-in-law’s needs.

Fantastic Web Site!  Looking forward to supplying this website address to prospective buyers in our neighborhood!  As a Resident Realtor here since 1991, I've seen an abundance of changes...this is one of the best!  Glad to see things "looking up!"

Waleah Norton

 

Dear Waleah-

 

Thanks for your kind comments. We are very proud of our web site and have Edie Gentile to thank for taking on such a major undertaking. We hope you’ll continue to check it out on a regular basis as we add additional Heights stories, Listings of Heights businesses, pictures of events, and notice that impact Heights residents. Our web address is reflective of our new neighborhood name www.HeighsofJupiter.com.

Hi Katie,

I just read the Height newsletter. I just want you to know that I think you are doing such an outstanding job with this paper. I thoroughly enjoyed your editorial (as always). Gina also writes such a nice article each month.  I do feel somewhat guilty that I have not contributed an article for such a long time. They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions, so I guess that's where I am going. I don't think the residents really appreciate how lucky we are to have such a caring, dedicated, knowledgeable person as our editor.  You contribute so much of your time so that we can maintain our Heights Newsletter.  We almost lost our Newsletter before you stepped up to the plate.  Nobody in this neighborhood is busier than you. Running a non profit organization in West Palm and now opening a new location in Tennessee.  You are a true blessing and I truly appreciate your contribution to our community.   Thank you so much.

 

June

 

June,

 

Thanks as always for your very kind remarks. Editing the paper is truly my pleasure and one that I think is worthy of my time. Few neighborhoods of our size (especially without an HOA) can boast that they have their own newspaper. Such a project however absolutely “takes a village” as they say and without the help of contributors such as Gina, Scott, Bob, Donald and Holly such a paper would not be possible. Contributions on a monthly basis however are not necessary. Even an occasional story such as the ones submitted by the professor this month or our Rad Kid babysitter, Emily, are equally important. The variety helps to keep the paper fresh and interesting and worthy of insertion in our paper.

Thanks again for all you do to help make this neighborhood a better place for all of us to live.

 

Katie

I recently spoke with someone in regards to assisting with a welcoming committee.  I am Nancy Shepherd Shurtleff and have been living on Foster Street since Christmas.  I am more than willing to help with a welcoming committee, just would not be able to "chair" it.  I have worked extensively with the Elkettes of Jupiter and other hospitality oriented organizations and feel qualified to "welcome" any and all new neighbors.  I have some good ideas, but as I said, would not be able to chair.  You can give my e-mail address to whomever does chair this project.  Looking forward to working with my new community.

Nancy Shepherd Shurtleff

Nancy,

 

Thanks for your willingness to be a part of such a wonderful project. We, the board, felt that with so many new faces moving in the area it would be nice to have a program in place to help make them feel welcome in our community. We hope to not only introduce them to the many benefits we enjoy here but also present them with a couple of donated gift certificates from local merchants. We are diligently looking for someone to assist you in this project and hope to match you with another individual soon. There are many worthy projects for interested and willing  individuals- all it takes is someone like you willing to step up to bat and make their interest known. Thanks again.

 

Katie
