Welcome to Gilchrist, Harry and Christie. It's a wonderful neighborhood and I'm sure you'll quickly integrate and find yourselves busier than ever.

First off, a BIG THANKS to the Flintstones for the design and build on our NYE Ball. You are wonderful people. I wish I could attach the video of the actual Ball Event. All I have are a couple of pictures of the Ball being set up and tested before the party started. Then there is a picture of part of the crowd. Thanks for the pictures MaMa Derby and Ole' Bishop. Two different people counted well over 300 people when midnight rolled around. For those who slept through the event . . . . .

I Have a question for my future Gilchrist neigbors. We are packing "The Pod", and keep debating on the lawnmower. How many of you do the lawn yourself...is it worth keeping? I hate to give up valuable room in the pod if we are going to end up hiring someone to do it anyway!!

[Harry & Christie]

Thank you for the welcome. We are very excited to get there - especially after about 6 more inches of snow yesterday here in good ole PA!

Lawn mowing service is not expensive in TV but you get what you pay for. The services will not usually be as good as if you do it. If you are picky about your lawn and plants do it yourself, if not, you can easily find someone to do it for you.

50-70 month in the summer and 25-35.00 in the winter months, you can get fertilizer service 390.00 year superior.
I paid more for fuel in the north then i do in the south to get it mowed, sell the mower to the neighbors , you will want your garage space in the villages. no sheds allowed.

Pod is PACKED...(with the lawnmower IN it...) and it heads out on it's way to The Villages tomorrow! We don't head out for another week.... going to be fun living in a relatively empty house for a week..but the reward is on the other end! Luckily, our house down there is a furnished model, so we still have furniture here till the stepkids take it all in a few days. Then ..well... should be interesting!
See you in a little more than a week!

We are on Hackberry, 2nd on the right from Eastfield! Next door just moved in over the weekend! After8 months we are thrilled to see the street built and filling up! Come over if you need anything, or just to say hi! Looking forward to meeting you both!

Just moved into the Gilchrist community a few days before Christmas. Needless to say the people/neighbors are just great! We attended the NYE Ball celebration and were already included in various holiday festivities. We made the right decision in moving from the South Jersey area.

Do you know in which section/unit of Gilchrist your home will be located?
The Village of Gilchrist is divided into six "development units" (Units 209 - 214) plus two villas (Atmore and Sharon). "Gilchrist West," is the unofficial name for the western three units (211, 212, & 213), including the two villas (Atmore and Sharon). We "West Gillies" have an email discussion group, a Face Book Group, several golf groups, a dine-out group, and publish a monthly e-newsletter. Heck, we even have a logo. Perhaps you'll be joining us.

Greg and I moved into our new home early this month. We are on Eastfield Path and originally from Greendale, WI. I am recently retired from home health nursing and Greg is a CPA and is still working in his field. I enjoy bicycling, walking, and golfing, and am open to try other activities as I find time.

Welcome to the Gillyhood! Hope you are staying warm!!

My wife and I are moving into Gilchrist in April. We are closing on our home in February. Does anyone know the choices available for TV and Internet there?

[BigB46]

We, Chris and Bruce, are from Glendale, WI. We are moving in during April after our home sells. Even if our home does not sell in WI, I will be here. Chris will come down later after estate sales and closing on that home. What type of TV and Internet service do you have?
