Here we go again, in a few weeks we’ll be welcoming at least eleven new neighbors to our wonderful community.
Debbie Beck and I really enjoy our time going out and meeting these new residents getting settled into their new homes.
The welcoming packet we put together and hand out contains information about the ALSC but also about local services including bus transportation, light rail, restaurants, shopping, tours, sightseeing trips and much more. It also includes a free Highline Bowling Alley Coupon donated by Val and Pat Johns that includes bowling for the whole family, a very nice event for sure.
Remember, we depend on all of you to keep us posted on any one who has moved in, just email either of us at:
Marge Murtha: [email protected] or Debbie Beck at: [email protected]
Thanks so much everyone!

ToallAngleLakeResidence’s,wereceivedthefollowingle<erfromSanta’sNorthPoleaddresson/oraboutFebruary28th,2018:HO HO HO! SANTA CLAUSE HERE….
Mrs. Clause said I should send a letter of thanks to all the kids I visited on Angle Lake this year. You all are so special & the stories I heard from each and every one of you touched my Heart! So you should have received what you asked for on Christmas day.
It was nice to see that for the majority of my visits, the kids’ teeth & ears were very clean this year. The main captains of the boats Launcier & Brucier did a great job of decorating their boats. In fact, now Rudolph has complained to the Senior Lighting Elf about adding more colored lights to the reins next year, along with louder music so everyone on the lake knows that Santa is coming! Next year. Mrs. Clause and our head Elf have been ordered to add more Candy to the packets that Kids receive as a nice reward for the kids keeping their teeth clean. Mrs , Clause asked me if I thought the kids that have visited me the last 6 years were growing up smarter and more polite than I could ever imagine, and . . .I gave a resounding YES!
I was touched by the requests by some of the older kids this year, asking for bikes for their younger Brothers and sisters, it just show’s how kind and well raise these children are by their Parents. Now for next year . . . don’t forget to organize your neighbor’s to come to your dock and let my elf’s know you want me to stop , so we can plan our tour with Great efficiency ! Finally, our Head Elf Coordinator will require one favorite song to be sung by all kids when Santa arrives & departs next year, this is to enhance the children voices in time for Christmas Eve.
So until next Christmas, good bye and good luck to all and to all a good year!
Love,
Santa & Mrs. Claus
