A great time was had by all.  Approximately 200 homeowners gathered at the clubhouse Nov 27, 2004 to meet the new owners of the resort.  Music was provided by Dick Matson's Swing'n Jazz trio from Borrego Springs.  The food and beverages were provided by Greg Perlman and David Itzikman, the new owners of Rams Hill.

We also celebrated Greg's birthday with a huge cake and heard a few words from Greg about the future of Rams Hill.  View a slide show of the party.


October 2004

New owners met with the Rams Hill Community Association Board of Directors.  During a luncheon meeting Rams Hill Country Club owners Greg Perlman & David Itzikman had lots of questions for the RHCA Board.  What would be described as a cordial meeting directors shared comments, concerns & historical perspective with Mr. Perlman & Mr. Itzikman.  The search continues for golf management and no decisions have been made regarding Clubhouse Dining according to Perlman & Itzikman.  They reiterated that the purchase of Rams Hill was an all cash deal and no lenders were involved.  They stated they are here for the long haul and are still determining their best course of action.  They also stated that golf memberships would be honored.

Extremely IMPORTANT INFORMATION for all Rams Hill homeowners !!

Kerin Shugart at the Rams Hill Community Association office reports that there is a serious rodent problem in the neighborhoods. Some of you kind hearted people are feeding the birds. Not only is this NOT good for the birds (because they will rely on you for food and not follow their natural hunting & searching instinct) it is also a violation of the rules of the association. The bird seed that falls to the ground is attracting the rodents and instead of going for the bait that is set out for them they eat the bird seed instead.

PLEASE PLEASE do NOT feed the birds or any of the other wild animals of the desert. As pleasurable as it may be to attract these creatures to your home for close-up viewing it is not good for them or for the property.

Another attraction to rodents is open garbage cans & uncontained plastic bags. Please make certain that when you set garbage out it is secure and in the Casita area please take extra care when using the dumpsters. Do not overfill them, keep the lids closed.

Bottom line - we all need to do what it takes to discourage rodents from making our home their home. I have personally heard horror stories from some of the residents who experienced interior damage to wiring etc from rodents.
