Hello & welcome to the July newsletter!
Funnies of the Month
Welcome to the Champion Community
We are sure you all join Village Management in welcoming Sue our newest staff member who ensures our communal facilities and display homes remain impeccable.
We are also delighted to formally welcome Rhonda and Cheryl of Villa 53, David & Elaine of Villa 49 and Barry in Villa 54. We look forward to helping you each settle into your new abode and trust your friendly neighbours will have your part of the community that is Champion Lakes Lifestyle in no time.
Village Management Update
With both Ben and Leah enjoying annual leave at the start of this month during the school holiday period and Jane & Keith scheduled to take holidays in late July 2021, we remain hopeful that our WA journey out of lockdown continues in the positive path that we are currently on.
So fortunate we are of the expansive communal areas and facilities that all residents can call their own, this is a courtesy reminder that within our village community we are not immune to the state government guidelines. Your respect and appreciation for those around you are very appreciated as we all continue to follow the guidelines and keep ourselves and our community safe and healthy.
The long-awaited Summer Olympics are on our doorstep and it is time to live and breathe sporting elitism at its finest if you’re a sporting enthusiast.
Our special thanks must go to residents Ray, Barb and Chris who will be starring in our very own Olympic advertisement promoting our village during the coverage of the games on Channel 7. With many laughs and many more re-takes, sheer determination and persistence got us the finished product we think you can all be proud of. Be sure to keep a lookout for their friendly smiling faces spread across your television screens during the games!!
