Spring has officially arrived here at
Sea Trail. Flowers and trees are blooming.
The grass is turning green. Golf courses
are full and the weather has been
beautiful. Days are longer giving us the
opportunity to enjoy the outdoors. I hope
that we all take this opportunity to “smell
the roses” and enjoy the season. I believe
that this is the most beautiful time of year
in our community.
The Master Association has been busy
preparing for the upcoming season.
The pools at the Pink Palace and MAC are
scheduled to officially open on April 1st.
Volunteers have been cleaning and
repairing outdoor furniture and decking.
They have also been repairing moisture
and mold damage in the hot tub at the
Creek Side building. As mentioned in last
month’s Sea Trailer, we plan to open this
as an outdoor spa for the coming season.
It is hoped that removing the windows will
alleviate the moisture problems that have
occurred in the past. A decision about the
future of the hot tub will be made at the
end of the pool season. The pool and hot
tub at the MAC will be fully operational
thanks
to
the
efforts
of
the
Pools Committee.
If you have not yet seen the
improvements made to our buildings,
do so at your first opportunity. The MAC,
Chapel, and Pink Palace have all been
painted and all reflect positively on our
active, vibrant community. In addition,
new tables have been purchased for the
Pink Palace and new user friendly media
equipment and sound system are
operational. Thanks are in order to the
Facilities Committee for planning and
implementing these enhancements to our
amenities.
In addition, representatives of the Master
Association have been working with
Sunset Beach town officials to complete
the dedication of roads owned by the
Association to the Town. Completion of
this long running project will relieve us of
the expense and liability associated with
these roads.
We have also had
discussions with the police department
regarding establishment of enforceable
speed limits within Sea Trail and
installation of appropriate signs.

President’s Message continued
Finally, the new website is coming! I have been assured that it will be available to all of
us by April 15th. I apologize for the delay and thank you all for your patience. I have
seen the product and believe it will be worth the wait when we all become familiar with
its features. As previously announced, training will be available to those who need it.
We are also anticipating the continuation of a smaller version of the Sea Trailer. More
information will be forthcoming as it becomes available.
Enjoy the spring weather! Mike Campbell
Pool/Tennis Committee
The official pool season begins on April 1st. The pool decks have been power washed;
the furniture will be cleaned and set out on March 28-29.
Pool hours are 6 am to 9 pm; monitors start on May 26th, Friday of Memorial Day
weekend. Until then, we as home owners are all Pool Monitors. We need to be
observant to make sure that the Pool Rules are observed.
Both spas, indoor and outdoor, will be in service on April 1st.
We are in the process of getting an estimate for the cleaning of the tennis courts.
Looking forward to an enjoyable summer season. Ray Coakley, Committee Chair
ABCPOA
Brunswick County Planning and Zoning Committee noted there are plans to build a 144
unit community in Shallotte. They also indicated that abandoned boats will be monitored
but no definitive decisions on abandoned equipment, vehicles, or residences.

provide annual audits.
A vendor database is being prepared in an attempt to combine with other communities in
the ABCPOA to possible obtain better rates.
The County Fire and Safety committee indicated that fire fees for all residents will be
enforced.

April Landscaping Tips
VACANT LOT OWNERS - it is your responsibility to mow/bush hog the lot
in May and September each year, per town ordinance, as well as
improving the appearance of our community. If you wish to sign up for the
lot mowing being coordinated by the STMA – please call Debra Bordeaux
at 910-579-5374 to arrange for this service. Additionally, it is the owner's
responsibility to remove all downed limbs and branches, dead trees and
plants, and any vines and small woody growth that restricts the lot mowing
and/or detracts from the lot appearance per Sunset Beach ordinance
93.01. For your convenience, the Town of Sunset Beach picks up yard
waste that is properly bundled and/or bagged twice monthly. If you need
advice on lot clean up services please contact Jim Stokes (770-940-3639)
as this needs to be completed prior to the start of mowing in May. Thank
you in advance for helping improve the appearance of our community.
HOMEOWNERS YARD CARE--April is the month to apply fertilizers to
many of our Zone 8b plants. After azaleas bloom, a light application of
Hollytone, an acidic fertilizer, can be applied. Other acid-loving plants like
gardenias, hollies, camellias, ferns like Hollytone, as well. An all-purpose
fertilizer, like 10-10-10, can be applied to other shrubs and trees. Always
read label directions; do not over fertilize since fertilizers are salts that can
cause water to be leached from roots; water in fertilizers after application;
apply fertilizers at the dripline of plants, pulling back any mulch.
Keep all mulches away from the base/trunk of the plant. Stone does not
provide any nutrition to the plant and can hold in too much heat in the
summer. It is also difficult to change one's mind about replanting in that
area!
Water is necessary for plants to thrive. It takes three years for some trees
to get established; one to two years for shrubs. Plants need, on average,
one inch of water a week, more if a newly-planted one. Do not depend on
drip irrigation to do the job, use a garden hose!
Soil tests: If your lawns, etc. are not thriving, a soil test may be your
answer. It is easy to accomplish; the soil is sent to Raleigh where it is
analyzed; a computer report will be sent with recommendations on what
chemicals to apply to help your particular situation. Call the N.C.
Agricultural Extension Agency (910-253-2610) in Bolivia for assistance.

THE SEA TRAILER | APRIL 2017
Sea Trail Prayer Support Circle
Well Old Man Winter made a bit of a comeback last month. Perhaps those few days
of colder temperatures and a brief show of frozen precipitation in the air was God's
way of making us have a greater appreciation for the sunshine, warmth and beauty of
April and the coming months. God sometimes does the same thing in our personal
lives. When we encounter obstacles and inclement weather we have God's assurance
that brighter skies and sunshine is on the horizon. We just need to pray and trust Him.
Do you have a prayer request??? To the
right are the names and areas of some of
the members. Feel free to call, as we all
believe in the power of prayer and pledge
confidentiality.

Games @ Sea Trail
NEW Duplicate Bridge Group at Sea Trail – Join us!
Phil Brown ([email protected]) and Larry Hershoff ([email protected]) invite
you to join a weekly MONDAY night 6:30 – 9:30 pm duplicate bridge group. We already
have almost a dozen players from the Fun Bridge Group who want to play duplicate and
we hope to get 3 to 4 tables each Monday night. The initial game will be on April 10th
at 147 4C Crooked Gulley Circle. For future play, we will get a permanent Monday
evening home at one of the Sea Trail common areas. Please contact Phil or Larry so we
can ensure we have the right number of players for April 10.
Couples Bridge will not meet in April. We will meet again on May 11th at 7:00 pm in
the Sunset Room at the Pink Palace. Myrt and Ron Klein are hosting and anyone
wishing to play should contact them at 579-1354 or e-mail [email protected]. All are
welcome.
Ladies Bridge meets every Thursday at 9:15 am in the Pink Palace. To sign up or for
more information, please call the April hostess Carol Grace 845-594-5574. All levels of
play are welcome.
Fun Bridge Group is a party-bridge (not duplicate) group that meets at the Sunset
Room Thursday evenings 6:30-9:30 pm (EXCEPT for the 4th Thursday of each month
when we are at the MAC). Interested players are requested to contact Larry Hershoff
([email protected]) or Alan Suvalle ([email protected]) in advance so we can ensure
that we have three or sometimes four complete tables.
Pinochle meets every Wednesday at 7 pm in the Sunset Room. We play double-deck
and are a friendly, patient group. If you would like to just come and "observe" for an
evening, you are certainly welcome to do so. Couples and singles are invited.
Questions: please call Loraine Kish at 575-2440.
Line Dancing
Line dancing continues twice a week in the multipurpose room of the Creek Side
building. The classes are held Tuesday from 4:30 to 5:30 and Thursday from 4:00 to
5:00. The dances we do are primarily beginner level dances and both classes are
similar in format. We go over the steps before we turn on the music. We are hoping
that some more dancers will join us. If you are new to line dancing, it would be better
to try the Thursday class where we often spend more time going over the steps. Our
main objective is to get a little exercise and have a lot of fun. If you have any
questions, Barb Hauver 579-6963 has lots of answers.

Volunteer Coordinator Seeks Volunteers at Museum and Planetarium
As the Museum of Coastal Carolina and Ingram Planetarium prepare for a busy summer season,
Volunteer Coordinator, Joyce Houle, is looking for additional volunteers. Both facilities need volunteers at
the front desk to greet visitors and answer their questions. Both facilities also need volunteers to provide
customer service in their gift shops. Additionally, the Museum needs volunteers to work at the touch tank
where they will supervise visitors and answer questions about the marine animals in the tank.
All volunteers receive training from staff members. There is always a staff member on duty to help
volunteers if help is needed. Volunteers can sign up for as little or as many hours as they wish and for
whatever days they wish. Flexible hours, interesting coworkers, and interacting with the public make
volunteering an appealing opportunity. Individuals interested in volunteer opportunities can call Joyce
Houle at 910-579-1016 or email her at [email protected].
