Marbella’s tower and elevator lobby renovation is underway, and the work started at the penthouse level of the north tower, working downward. The good news is that the project is going quicker than expected. Ron Roker with RD Johnson Construction is the foreman who supervised the Cove’s renovation, and we are fortunate to have him overseeing the tower project. Ron has a sharp eye for detail and keeps the construction team focused on safety, cleanliness, and courtesy. While work is going on outside of your apartment, you should feel free to come and go as you like, as the construction team is aware that this is an inconvenience and is working together with our team to make the project as uninterruptible as possible. We promise to communicate with you on the project’s status and hope that the project will continue to go well. We are pleased with the popularity of the exercise classes. As we prepare for a busy 2023/2024 season, Darci has reached out to several fitness instructors to provide you with several options that will help you reach your fitness goals. We will be offering Chair

Yoga and Tai Chi in addition to the Strength & Stretch, Balance & Stretch, and Mana Holtz’s Water Aerobics. Even if you have never attended a class, we encourage you to watch a session or two and decide if you would like to join in. September is the peak of hurricane season, and having a plan is important. If you start asking yourself a few questions, “How will I get my medications?” “What do I do if the water is turned off in my apartment?” “Do I have flashlights and working batteries if the power is off?” Once you start asking these questions, you begin developing a plan. Last year was treacherous and a learning experience for all of us, and a hurricane plan, regardless of size, is smart. Two beautiful new umbrellas were recently purchased to provide additional shade to the pool for those who love the outdoors but find it difficult to tolerate the direct sun. Enjoy the outdoors and stay hydrated.
