Hi
As we head into another beautiful weekend here in Rossmoor, we can expect our temps to be in the low 70's with a slight change of drizzle on Monday morning.
Enjoy your time outdoors and look for those Halloween decorated homes. Take a couple pictures and let us know where the house is and as part of our You've Been Boo'd recognition contest, you may win a prize for your efforts. Details and entry form here.

Are You Able To Lend A Hand?
We were notified by Galynn Tran that long-time residents, the Farajian Family, have been having some health challenges and could use some family meal assistance. Once upon a time, without thinking twice, Rossmoor neighbors would help their neighbors with meals when significant challenges in life arose. The Farajian family would be the first in line to assist. And now, they can use some help.
If you are so included to help out, you can check out the details here and sign up to provide a meal. This kind of neighborly support is one of the things that makes Rossmoor special. Let's carry on the tradition.
The Youth Center Requests...
Every once and a while, The Youth Center runs across a specific need or two that they can use a hand with and hopefully, the Rossmoor Community can assist.
Youth Center Director Lina Lumme recently made the following requests:
1. Our refrigerator is dying slowly!!! And we would love to get a new "used" one. If anyone wants to donate their gently used refrigerator for kids, that would be very helpful in keeping snacks and drinks for kids.
2. IPhones (gently used and unlocked) We use them at our after school locations as we don't have a landline and if our phones break purchasing a new one is super expensive. We would like to have one or two backups. Any model.
3. Holiday ornaments (wood, plastic, metal, etc. please no glass.). Gently used or new ornaments for kids projects. And handmade recycled projects we create to sell at our Christmas Tree Lot to raise money for Youth Center scholarships.
Your donation may be 2021 tax deductible (check with your tax advisor) and in any case you can receive a gift-receipt from The Youth Center. Just ask
If you are able to assist, please call The Youth Center (562.493.4043) to make arrangements.
Thanks for your support of this great community asset.
