Yard of the Month
June is here; somebody
flipped a switch and we
finally started getting
warm enough weather to
start the planting cycle.
And, that’s good news for
our gardeners!
We have some of the best
gardeners we’ve ever
seen, right here at South
Park! We have seen their
handiwork last summer
and into the fall, and now
that spring has sprung,
we’ve just been amazed
at how quickly they’ve
been able to get their
yards looking so pretty, so
soon.
But, that also left us
wondering, “who is the
best?” Who can come up
with the prettiest yard in
the shortest amount of
time? Who can lay claim
to the prettiest yard of the
summer? Who can
proclaim their yard a
consistent winner, month
after month throughout the
growing season?
That is why we have
decided to start a Yard of
the Month contest for the
months of June, July,
August and September.
Each winner will be
announced in the
following month’s
newsletter and will also
win a $25 gift certificate to
spend as they wish.
At the end of the season,
we will also announce an
overall winner for the
summer season and that
winner will win a $100 gift
certificate and be crowned
the King or Queen of
Summer Gardening!

Service Update
Management has a long
history of helping out our
residents at South Park
and it’s a tradition that we
wish to continue for those
who are truly in need.

7 Odd and Random Facts
1. According to Discover
Magazine, Abdulhamid II,
sultan of the Ottoman
Empire in the early 1900s,
censored all references to
water in chemistry books
because he was
convinced that H2O stood
for "Hamid the Second is
nothing". Cuckoo!
2. American newspaper
owner William Randolph
Hearst was expelled from
Harvard University in 1885
for raucous behavior after
presenting his professors
with chamber pots
(historically used as
toilettes) with their
individual pictures and
names painted inside.
3. The incredibly fast
American SR-71 spyplane (designed to make
reconnaissance flights
over the USSR) required
so much titanium in its
construction that the CIA
ended up buying Russian
titanium on the black
market in order to meet
the demand.
4. Want to sound smart?

non-technical word into

which means “useless”.
