Please join us at the 5th Annual Jaime Whelan Foundation Fundraiser on Saturday, September 22nd from 2:00-6:00PM at The Beach House in Long Beach. To donate, or to see full event details, please visit: www.jaimewhelanfoundation.com

On October 12th, 2007, Jaime Whelan passed away in a tragic accident while on a business trip in Buenos Aires. Jaime was only 30 years old. The Whelan family, in conjunction with Long Beach Catholic School, has started the Jaime Whelan Foundation in her memory. The Foundation provides scholarships to girls graduating from Long Beach Catholic School and attending Jaime's High School alma mater, Sacred Heart Academy. To-date, the Foundation has raised over $200,000.

The Board can choose other alternatives, like liens to be paid when the property is sold. It depends also on the by-laws that the owners signed when they purchased.

Others should know so they can avoid the mistake of buying a place managed by this bunch.

some observations: one, applicable regulations for safety provide you cannot have mixed swimming…Read More and surfing beaches, so if the idea is to have both, you need to allocate. two, different beaches, because of bottom conditions, have very different waves -- ergo, the selection of beaches for surfing. three, on any given summer day with decent waves, and barely decent on a weekend, the number of surfers is dangerous. truly. I will not let my younger children surf/learn on those days. I won't even surf those days. four, on any given summer day, the number of people in the water, let alone actually swimming, is incredibly small in comparison to our total available beach real estate. five, as a general rule under this schedule, no swimmer should have to walk more than a few seconds to 2 minutes to be on a swimming beach. it is an allocation issue and not everyone is going to like the allocation, but that's often a part of the give and take of living in a community where resources are shared. folks who live near the train station have commuters parking in front of the their houses, sometimes with cars left for 2-3 days. similar for folks who live near the beach and can't get parking for themselves or at least their guests on a weekend. there are unbelievable issues with allocation of sports fields for practice and games. west-enders put up with bar traffic and a lot of other things. in any event, my two cents.
