Insurance Increase and ImpactOn 2018-19 Budget:

On April 30, we were notified thatthe Greater New York InsuranceCompany would not be renewingour liability and property insurancepolicy.

This is because of our claim losshistory over the past five years pri-marily related to slip and fall law-suits and fire claims on our property.

During budget development we

did not know what amount the insurance policy was goingto increase. We did recognize that a premium increase wascoming, so we added 15 percent or $87,000 to our 2018-2019budget for insurance. This past Monday, however, our broker, Peoples Insur-ance, presented us a proposal that represents a $516,000 pre-mium increase, effective July 1, 2018. We now have a$429,000 budget shortfall for insurance. The executive director, the accounting team and the In-surance and Finance Committees are currently reviewing op-tions to address this budget shortfall. On June 28, there will be an Oronoque Village meetingopen to all residents at 2 p.m. at NCB. People’s Insurance will explain our liability and claim his-tory over the past five years, risk mitigation, followed by Fredoutlining some specific recommendations and plans as tohow Oronoque will be addressing future risk management,including each resident’s role.

Analysis of Our Infrastructure: We have hired Falcon Group, a professional engineeringfirm, to perform a full reserve study of the Village. Our infra-structure is aging and we need to determine what level of re-serves are necessary to cover us in the future.

New Website Rollout: As reported last month, our newest website is currentlyhaving a “soft” rollout to ensure seamless execution beforeopening it up to the residents. We are continuing to workclosely with the vendor to sort out some logistic details.

SAC ALZHEIMER’S WALK

Story by Jeanette CaronPhotos by Peter Feick and Shanon Jordan

“There are 77,000 people in the state of Connecticutsuffering from Alzheimer’s or other forms of de-

mentia … and it is the sixth leading cause of death in theU.S., affecting families and businesses throughout thecountry. We are making progress and I can’t tell you howmuch every bit of support means to us and those weserve. Thank you to Oronoque Village for the incrediblesupport each year,” said Tori Vigorito and Shanon Jordan,of the local Connecticut chapter of the Alzheimer’s Asso-ciation, while addressing the crowd of walkers and vol-unteers in our South Clubhouse parking lot. For the fifth consecutive year, SAC raised funds for the

Alzheimer’s Association Connecticut Chapter, but this yearwas the most successful ever. On the morning of June 2,over 65 people from the Village -- with friends, family andeven their pets -- donned the official T-shirt to walk anddemonstrate their support for this worthy cause. A concurrent vintage car show, which drew admirers-- along with the array of sinfully delicious baked goodies

that were donated for the on-site bake sale -- helped tobring the proceeds to over $3,300! All money raised goesdirectly to the Alzheimer’s Association local chapter. Many thanks to everyone involved: Pat Spodick,

Raquel Wright, Dave Bingham, Michael Minoff and PeterFeick. An extra “thank you” goes to our extraordinary bakers:

Dorothy Tanski, Dottie Sullivan, Janice Dulberg, JeanetteCaron, Linda Eastwood, Linda Schoennagel, Mary AnnWeaver, Pat Krause and Sonya DeBiase, who were led byour famous Bake Sale duo, Celeste Jardim and Mecia Ca-mara. This event, which was organized by Barbara Minoff,was a great team effort by all. Kudos to everyone! This year, once again, we appreciated the contribution

of bottled water from ShopRite in Shelton and the purpleballoons from Hansen’s Flowers in Fairfield. It was wonderful to have the participation from the

Alzheimer's Association with a big “thank you” to ShanonJordan and Tori Vigorito for coming to our fundraiser! Please look for our SAC Alzheimer’s Association event

again next year! OV

WOMEN’S BOWLING CLUB RESULTS

Story by Joanne D’Onofrio ~ Photos by Irene Sanzone

An awards luncheon for the lady bowlers was held atStanziale's Restaurant in Stratford. It was hosted by

Vangie Wales and Jane Jordan. After a delicious lunch, theladies received their prizes in various bowling categories. Theteams are ranked by their performances, and everyone whobowls receives a cash award.

The lucky team winning first prize was captained by MaryAnn Baudouin with members, Pat Havanec, Kathy Wells andJane Jordan. They were thrilled to be "Numero Uno." The re-wards of a season well-played was very satisfying.

It is not so bad coming in last place because -- in additionto the cash awards -- the team members are also "roasted."This year they "laid an egg" and received baskets with babychicks and chocolate eggs, along with a story about their ac-complishments or lack thereof. "Laying an egg" is an old termmeaning that efforts fell short or something was done unsuc-cessfully. The ladies on this team know how to take a joke,and Captain Dot Stoeppel, Celeste Malin, Mary Lee Prusseland Gery Cuccaro were good sports and said they received

the best prize. They certainly got the most attention. In addition to other team prizes, individuals who did

themselves proud were high series, game and average: LoriHedman, Dot Stoeppel, Mary Ann Baudouin. High games intheir class: Anita Careddu, Rosemary Iacurci and Kathy Wells.High series by class: Fran Hulley, Cindy Torregiani, Pat Havanecand Mary Lee Prussel. Subs with high series and class: SuePfannkuch and Connie Murawski.

Lori Hedman and Dot Stoeppel had 200 games. Turkeys(three consecutive strikes) were had by Lori Hedman, DeeTuozzoli, Pat Havanec, Kathy Wells, Mary Lee Prussel and CarolWalker. Four baggers (4 consecutive strikes) were accom-plished by Lori Hedman, Anita Careddu and Fran Hulley.

Most improved award, a coveted one by players at all lev-els of ability, went to Gery Cuccaro.

If you would like to join this group, ladies who clap and"high five" anytime someone does something good, like mak-ing a "split" regardless of whose team the person is on, comeand join us. Call any of the ladies mentioned above, and theywill answer any question you may have. Happy bowling! OV

TENNIS CLUB HAPPY HOURStory by Benson Snaider ~ Photos by Peter Feick

On the afternoon of Thursday, June 7, after a roundrobin of tennis, the Oronoque Village Tennis Club

gathered at NCB for an informal “happy hour.”

The members and their guests enjoyed scrumptious

appetizers presented by Chairperson Judy Waldeyer andher hard-working crew: Betty Mulholland, Barbara Minoffand Dottie Sullivan. The guests were treated to cocktails prepared by the

Beverage Committee Chairman Ray Drake and his band ofmerrymakers: Peter Feick, Jim Schlenck and Peter Penny.Peter’s margaritas won the blue ribbon for the best cocktail. The idea for an informal happy hour was planned by

the club to promote a convivial atmosphere during whichmembers (both players and social members) and their sig-nificant others got to know each other better with a “meetand chat” off the tennis court. The group was entertained by the Village jukebox play-

ing background musicof the ‘40s and ‘50s.

A highlight of theparty was the visit byformer member DickFiocca, who charmedhis old friends withreminiscences of the“good old days” in theVillage and its tennisenthusiasts.

To sum it up, the 57members and guestswho attended theparty had a great timeand are looking for-ward to the club’s nextevent. OV

MANAGING ARTHRITIS WITH EXERCISEBy Ed Genga, MA, CSCS

Does this sound familiar? "My joints are achy, I feel stiffall the time and it’s hard to get out of bed in the

morning." If there were ever a good excuse not to exercise– if there were ever a defensible time to throw in the towel– this would be it, right? Wrong! In fact, when arthritis is a problem, it is precisely the

time for you to get up and get moving. Exercise reducesjoint pain and stiffness and increases flexibility, musclestrength, cardiac fitness and endurance. It also helps withweight reduction and contributes to an improved sense ofwell-being. Taking the day (or week, month or year) off willonly make things worse for tomorrow. So where do you go from here? How

do you begin a program that helps, nothurts? Three types of exercise are best for

dealing with arthritis. Create a workoutprogram that includes a balance of:• Range-of-motion exercises (e.g.,stretching) for normal joint movement, re-lieving stiffness, and maintaining or increasing flexibility.Include at least every other day.• Strengthening exercises (e.g., weight training, resist-ance exercises, nautilus, body weight exercises) for keepingor increasing muscle strength, and supporting and protect-ing joints affected by arthritis. Include every other day un-less you have severe pain or swelling in your joints.• Aerobic or endurance exercises (e.g., bicycle riding,walking, swimming, cardio gym machines) for improvingcardiovascular fitness, controlling weight, improving over-all function and relieving pressure on and inflammation inyour joints. Include 20 - 30 minutes, three times per weekunless you have severe pain or swelling in your joints.

Where to Start Begin with easy, range-of-motion exercises and low-

impact aerobics. As you become more comfortable with alow-level program, it is possible to progress to more ad-vanced exercises. For example, you might start with water exercise (eas-

iest on the joints) and progress to walking and/or biking orsports. Check with your doctor to learn which sports andexercises would be safe for you to try.

Things to Remember While Exercising • Move your joints daily to prevent stiffness and loss ofjoint movement.• Exercises should be done on a regular basis. You should

try to do them on good days and bad days, although youmay have to modify the program if you are having morepain than usual.• An inflamed joint should only be moved gentlythrough its range of motion.• It is important to listen to your body and not overdo it.If an exercise hurts, stop! Pain (other than normal arthritisdiscomfort) is your body’s way of telling you something iswrong. If you get tired, rest! Wait a few minutes, and thencontinue when you are ready.• Always begin a session with some slow warm-up exer-cises to reduce stress on the joints.• You should attempt to achieve a full range of motionby moving until you feel a slight stretch. Do not force themotion, going only as far as you feel comfortable.• Move at your own pace, performing exercises in a slowand steady motion.

•Strength training can be donewith small free weights, exercisemachines, isometrics, elasticbands and resistive water exer-cises. Correct positioning is critical,because if done incorrectly,strengthening exercises can causemuscle tears, more pain, and more

joint swelling.• Most experts agree that if exercise causes pain thatlasts for more than 1 hour, it is too much.

Other Ways to Protect Your Joints• Avoid keeping your joints in the same position for longperiods. To reduce stiffness, avoid prolonged sitting and getup and walk around every hour or so.• The strongest or largest joints and muscles should beused instead of the weakest ones, and weight should bedistributed over several joints. For example, push open aheavy door with the side of your arm, not with your handand outstretched arm. Carry a heavy bag or purse over yourshoulder instead of holding it by the fingers.• Maintain good posture and body mechanics, keepingjoints in their most stable and functional position. Bad pos-ture can lead to possible deformities and increased pain.• Use a straight-back chair with a firm seat when sitting.When rising from a chair, use the muscles of the legs whilealso pushing off the arms of the chair with palms or fore-arms (not fingers).

WRITERS’ GROUP SUBMISSIONSRAINY DAY THOUGHTSBy Pearl B. Spodick

LostReturn of the monstrous breathing machine

Death is nearWaiting

Silently stealing lifeWaiting

This is our home!Be gone

We don’t want you nearRecognition be paid

Dreams dashed away, energy drainedAlmost gone

A lifeless display

WeepOptimism, slain overnight

Memories lingerLong, past moments of fright

Foolish woman, don’t lose your delightCrying blurred eyesWatching the rain

Hope more for the futureLove sparkles with life

It will span many a yearNow’s not the time for irrational fear

This is your lifeGo forth with your Dear

Weeping is shortsighted, seemingly vainBurdened wife, crying bewildered by rain

Hope for the future, unfilled with pain Weep not, Recovery’s the aim!

BUT I WAS GOOD!By Bill Tanski

The shadow of death is ever nearIt is invisible but never fearThat one day my luck will be changedAnd my death would be neatly arranged

Like a thief in the night it will rob me of lightJust as I pray for hope of an afterlifeMy prayers will be dashed when I find there is noneAnd there is darkness and coldness without anyone

Where is the heaven I hoped I would see ?Why isn't my love waiting for me ?

How did this happen after a virtuous life ?This misery of loneliness that cuts like a knife

I believed in fairies and angels with hopeThat our time in eternity wasn’t a jokeBut whither I must in this endless sea As the shadow of death now envelopes me

Cling, I try, to a life that is finishedGrasp I must even though it is diminishedFearing endless night without a dawnAs my life embers away soon to be gone

The shadow of death is upon me layingSo I bid you adieu and I’m just saying Wish I had more fun without the praying


GARDENING TIPWILD EXPECTATIONS REDUXBy Elisabeth Breslav ~ Photo by Caren Kemp

Iam tempted to believe the mothballs in my planter con-vinced a certain pesky squirrel that the Oronoque southside

is no place to dig for nuts, because it was recently spotted bymy friend, Dolores Ferzola, wholives on the northside. (OK –maybe she saw a relative of mytormentor.)

An avid gardener, Dolores is

well-acquainted with the wildlifeof Oronoque village ... from fieldmice to chipmunks and squirrelsto rabbits.

But she also does not care

for the perfume of mothballs onher patio, which led her daugh-ter, Caren, to come up with a so-lution for wildlife problems thatgoes way beyond even pepper-mint oil.

Some equipment is required, which can be found at

Lowe’s in Milford: 6-inch by 20-foot Frost King plastic gutter guard roll: $4.08

4-inch landscape fabric pin: package of 25 is $9.98 (largerpackages are available) Also needed are a pair of sturdy scissors and non-arthritichands to cut strips of the plastic material to fit around theplants, overlapping them as needed, with the pins holding

them together and anchored to thesoil.

It is an elegant solution – allbut invisible, and while it keepswildlife away it encourages humanguests to linger and smell theroses.

Editor’s Note: This article is a fol-low up to an essay, titled “Wild Ex-pectations,” which was written by

Elisabeth Breslav and publishedin the June 1, 2018, edition of The

The book for July 11 (please note date change) is The Last Days of Light by Graham Moore. Inventorstake the stage in this historical fiction/legal thriller based on the lighting of New York City in the 1890s.The story is told by Paul Cravath, an attorney hired by George Westinghouse to take on Thomas Edi-son in a battle over light bulb patents. The author digs deep into long-forgotten facts to give us an excit-ing, sometimes astonishing story of two geniuses locked in a brutal battle to change the world.

The book for Aug. 4 is Remains of the Day by Nobel Prize winnerKazuo Ishiguro. The novel's narrator is a perfect English butler whotries to give his narrow existence form and meaning. In a career thatspans the second World War, the butler is oblivious of the real life thatgoes on around him -- oblivious, for instance, of the fact that his aristo-crat employer is a Nazi sympathizer. Still, there are even larger mattersat stake in this heartbreaking, pitch-perfect novel -- namely, the butlerown ability to allow some bit of life-affirming love into his tightly re-pressed existence.
