President’s Message
Manager’s Blog
Well, it is Fall and great to have all our snowbird
friends back in their southern roost. Welcome back!!
This is my first letter to the community and I have met
many of you at different functions. There are many
of you that I have not met yet, so let me introduce
myself. My name is Rick Sellers. I have been in the
manufactured housing industry for over 30 years.
I have been an owner of communities as well as
operating communities for other owners. My passion
and goal for Bear Creek is to be a pristine community
that residents love to live in. I live 15 minutes from the
community with my beautiful wife, Carol, of 38 years.
We have three children, two daughter-in laws and
two granddaughters. Most of them live in Jacksonville,
FL. and Abilene, TX.
The question of “how many renters are in the park?”
has come up numerous times. During the October
HOA general meeting someone mentioned that a list
was at the gate house for use by the gate attendants.
I went down to check and, yes, there is a list…with
less than 50 names (or about 7% of the park) on it.
Not sure why this is important, but I thought I would
share the information.
Also at the October meeting, Jane Clausen and
Sandy Smith volunteered to be part of the Elections
Committee. With elections coming up in December this
committee is critical to its success. Thank you ladies!!
In the September Bear Facts there was an error in
the paragraph addressing some specifics of the
Nominating Committee. The statement “Per existing
HOA By-Laws, this committee shall be comprised of
five (5) HOA members in good standing” is incorrect.
There is no limit to the size of the committee and we
are still looking for volunteers to staff this committee.
Please contact a board member to express your
interest in being a critical part of the election process.
My door at the office is always open to you. All
you need to do is stop in and visit with me with any
concerns that may come up. Your goal and mine
should be the same when it comes to this community.
That is to have a community that we are proud of as
well and as a great place to call home. It is an honor
to be your community manager, please feel free to
stop in and meet me.
Rick Sellers
General Manager
We are still looking for HOA members to run for the
Board of Directors in December. Priscilla Sanborn and
www.bearcreeksocialclub.org Barry Ferguson have expressed an interest in running
again, but we need more HOA members to step up
Clubhouse Reservations
and run for office. If we don’t have at least five (5)
Toni Hackenberg
HOA directors we can’t have an HOA.

We will have a guest speaker at the November
12th HOA General Meeting. Thanks to the efforts of
Ed Burns, Mr. Joe Mannarino, Director of Economic
Development for the City of Ormond Beach, will
be discussing present and future economic projects
impacting both business and real estate development
(e.g., US 1 corridor and the defunct gas station at
Nova and Granada).
One final item, the HOA board is wondering if there
is an attorney residing in Bear Creek, with knowledge
of Florida Statutes 617 and 723, that would be willing
to donate some time (non-litigation) to the board. If
interested, please contact me for more information.

This is the first month that I had a chance to ride
in the community with the Architectural Control Committee and
what we saw was somewhat concerning. The appearance of
the community needs to look pristine. What we saw is that most
of the community takes great pride in their homes and flower
beds. However, some of the residents have let their homes go
unattended. In accordance with the Park Rules and Regulations,
it is the responsibility of the home owner to keep their homes in
good repair and clean on the outside and the carport should
be kept clear of clutter. I guess what I am saying is; to those
of you that keep your place looking sharp, “THANK YOU” and
to those of you that need attention to your home, “PLEASE GET
YOUR PLACE LOOKING GOOD AGAIN”. It is not fair to your
neighbors that your homes and yards are not kept looking good
and it is against the Bear Creek Park Rules and Regulations.
Attention Residents
To help expedite resident improvements to home (exterior)
Bear Creek has come into the 21st century and we are now on Facebook. and yard, we encourage you to pick up an “Application for
Plan Approval” at the Sales Office. Thank you for taking the
proper steps to improve your home’s appearance.

Federation of Manufactured
Homeowners of Florida
In short… FMO
Thank you to all those who continue their
membership. Some of our members have been
loyal and supportive for as long as 18+ years. A thank you goes
out to those who have decided to become new members. Now more
than ever we need to support FMO. Large corporations are buying
mobile home parks all across the state. These corporations are
constantly taking actions and looking for ways to lobby legislators
for changes that will weaken or delete the rights you have under
Chapter 723. At the present time we have 150+ FMO members.
We have over 600+ homes in Bear Creek. We need to increase
membership for us to have a strong voice in the State House, don’t
leave it up to a few of us to carry the load for all of you. It’s time
for all manufactured home owners to support FMO. The membership
fees (beginning November 1st) are $25 for one year and $65 for
three years. Becoming a member will also allow you to become a
Cross Country Motor Club member for as little as $40 per year.
FMO is the only organization whose purpose is to protect
manufactured home owners. FMO has a Lobbyist in Tallahassee
who watches for the legislation that affects your lifestyle. FMO
has an attorney that advises the Board of Directors on a part-time
basis. Our attorney also answers legal questions in each issue of the
official “FMO News”. If you have a legal question, you can have it
answered by e-mailing to [email protected].
At the district level, February to April, there was a membership
contest that I won by signing up eight new members to FMO. I was
given a $50.00 reward. I decided to pay it forward. The winners
of the first $25 drawing were Bill and Fay Albro. I offered an
additional challenge to any new members who signed up recently,
the winner is Marie Facciponti. Thank you goes out to Marie and the
others who recently joined FMO.
Here is the website of our two representatives should you ever want
to correspond with them.
Social Club News

8th hosted by Bill Loudon and his committee. In December we will

hope everyone comes out to have a great time. We will talk about
these events at our November meeting.
Remember, in December we will be holding elections for next year’s
Social Club Board. We are looking for candidates. If anyone is
interested, please call me at 677-3278 or please come to our
meeting on Wednesday, November 5th and introduce yourself.
The Tiki Hut will be closing for the season on Sunday, November
16th. We still need volunteers so drop by the Tiki Hut and sign up

Once again I want to thank our dedicated library committee for all of their hard work in preparing for the book sale: Bea Barry,
Louise Kubiak, Kathy and Squirt Lyke, Helen and Warren Soehren, Dick Pierce, and Anne Pollitt who also volunteered to help
set-up. It is a physically demanding job! While we did not do as well as other years, we did make enough money to purchase
about 25 new paperbacks. So be on the lookout for their arrival and continue to enjoy reading books from your library. However,
remember that others may be waiting for the books that you have borrowed, so please return them within a timely period.
Pleasant browsing!!

November: The All-Girl Filling Station Last Reunion
Fannie Flagg
Fannie Flagg is at her hilarious and superb best in this comic mystery
novel about two women who are forced to reimagine who they are.
January: The Secret History
Donna Tart
Under the influence of their charismatic classics professor, a group
of clever, eccentric misfits at an elite New England college discover
a way of thinking and living that is a world away from the humdrum
existence of their contemporaries. But when they go beyond the
boundaries of normal morality their lives are changed profoundly
and forever, and they discover how hard it can be to truly live and
how easy it is to kill.
February: The Language of Flowers
Vanessa Diffenbaugh
The Victorian language of flowers was used to convey romantic
expressions but for Victoria Jones it’s been more useful in
communicating grief, mistrust and solitude. After a childhood spent
in the foster-care system, Victoria is eighteen and emancipated.
With nowhere to go she sleeps in a public park where she plants
her own small garden. When a local florist discovers her talents
Victoria realizes she has a gift for helping others through flowers.
Please come join us for a lively, fun and informative discussion
on very varied subject matters.
