join the Landscape Committee in saying “thank you” for the care they put into<br />

keeping <strong>Sydney</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> beautiful.<br />

TRASH<br />

<strong>Sydney</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> beautiful!<br />

NO ALCOHOL ALLOWED<br />

IN THE POOL AREA<br />

Come on Residents. We all know alcohol<br />

and/or glass containers are not allowed<br />

in the pool area. I hate to say this but<br />

people have already, this year, broken<br />

the rules! If you haven’t read the deed<br />

restrictions, it’s posted all over the pool<br />

area. Let’s keep everyone safe and follow<br />

the rules.<br />

PRECINCT 4 VACATION WATCH<br />

When you prepare for those summer trips, don’t forget to complete the Precinct<br />

4 Vacation Watch form to let them know you will not be home. They make extra<br />

trips by your home and look around to ensure all is safe and secure. Use the<br />

following link for the form: Vacation Watch Request (constablepct4.com).<br />

LET’S KEEP FIT!<br />

Our HOA is footing the bill for us to stay fit.<br />

Our instructor, Angel, will lead us in exercising every Friday. Bring your<br />

drinking water and an exercise mat. Again, a great way to meet your<br />

neighbors, stay fit and have fun.<br />

Adults Only, Male and Female | 10-11 AM<br />

The <strong>Sydney</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> Clubhouse<br />

LET’S SAY THANK YOU TO THE HOA!<br />

HOW FUN IS THIS!<br />

<strong>Sydney</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> started water aerobics again. Our new instructor, Angel, is<br />

great! We had so much fun during our first week. It’s open to all adults, male<br />

and female. Come join us. Great way to meet neighbors, stay in shape and<br />

have fun. Bring your drinking water and a water noodle.<br />

Tuesday & Thursday: 10 AM-11 AM<br />

YOU MUST HAVE A POOL PASS TO ENTER THE POOL AREA<br />

FLY A FLAG IN YOUR YARD<br />

Have you noticed all the beautiful flags flying in neighbor’s yards on holidays?<br />

These are courtesy of Cy-Woods High School. This is their way of raising<br />

money for band activities. Would you like to have one in your yard to help our<br />

students and show patriotism? Here’s a link to their website with information<br />

to help you get started flags@cywoodsband.org. They will deliver the flag,<br />

install it in your yard and pick up and store it when the holiday is over. And, it’s<br />

a great way at little expense ($40 per year) to help. The holidays are President’s<br />

Day, Memorial Day, 4 th of <strong>July</strong>, Labor Day/Patriot Day, Veterans Day.<br />

Fried Chicken<br />

You could make this on National Fried Chicken Day <strong>July</strong> 6th!<br />

INGREDIENTS:<br />

2 to 3 pounds chicken, cut into pieces<br />

3 cups all-purpose flour<br />

5 tbsp. seasoned salt<br />

3 tbsp. garlic powder<br />

Salt and pepper to taste<br />

4 eggs, beaten<br />

Vegetable oil for frying<br />

DIRECTIONS:<br />

In a shallow plate or bowl, mix the flour, seasoned salt, garlic powder, salt<br />

and pepper. Roll or shake the chicken pieces in the flour mixture and place<br />

on a platter. Then dip each chicken piece in the egg and roll again in flour<br />

mixture.<br />

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Fry<br />

coated chicken pieces in hot oil for about 5 minutes on each side. Cover<br />

skillet and cook on lower heat for about 10 minutes. Remove cover, turn<br />

up heat and fry for 5 minutes on each side to make chicken crispy. Chicken<br />

is done when it is no longer pink inside and its juices run clear. Drain fried<br />

chicken on paper towels and keep warm in oven until ready to serve.<br />

Easy Chocolate<br />

Ice Cream<br />

You could make this on National Ice Cream Day <strong>July</strong> 16th!<br />

INGREDIENTS:<br />

1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk<br />

2/3 cup chocolate syrup<br />

2 cups heavy cream<br />

DIRECTIONS:<br />

Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with aluminum foil. In a large bowl, stir<br />

together condensed milk and chocolate syrup until color is even. In<br />

a separate bowl, whip cream until stiff peaks form. Fold cream into<br />

chocolate mixture and pour all into prepared pan. Cover and freeze 6<br />

hours, until firm.<br />

JULY IS NATIONAL ICE CREAM MONTH<br />

In 1984, President Ronald Reagan designated <strong>July</strong> as National Ice Cream<br />

Month and the third Sunday of the month as National Ice Cream Day.<br />

He recognized ice cream as a fun and nutritious food that is enjoyed by<br />

over 90 percent of the nation’s population. In the proclamation, President<br />

Reagan called for all people of the United States to observe these events<br />

with “appropriate ceremonies and activities.” The International Ice Cream<br />

Association (IICA) encourages retailers and consumers to celebrate<br />

<strong>July</strong> as National Ice Cream Month. About 10.3 percent of all the milk<br />

produced by U.S. dairy farmers is used to produce ice cream, contributing<br />

significantly to the economic well-being of the nation’s dairy industry.<br />
