The Board is looking for a few owners to volunteer to serve on the Financial Committee
and the Rules Committees. If you are interested, please email Jabbear Swinton, GM at
jswinton@actionlife.com stating which committee you are interested in. A short bio of

ANNOUNCEMENT: SHOWER CARTRIDGES BEING DISCONTINUED
Please be advised that, according to our vendor, the current shower cartridges for the
master bathroom will be discontinued by the end of the year. Residents are encouraged
to stock up on one or two extra cartridges while they are still available, as they may be
difficult to find once production ends.
You will know it is time to replace your cartridge when you notice a change in water
pressure and/or when the temperature favors only hot or only cold. Having the cartridge
cleaned will help extend the cartridge life and/or it can be replaced every 2-3 years
as preventative maintenance.
Please note: If your cartridge fails after it has been discontinued, both the cartridge and
the trim may need to be replaced with currently available models on the market.
The Grohe shower cartridge part number GR-47-860-000 can be found on Amazon or on
other online shops. Some local stores that carry shower cartridges may have some in stock
as well, call ahead with the part number to find out.

ways. There are not only pedestrians walking by, but also bikers, skaters, and scooter
