	Gate Works Update Submitted by Carol D’Onofrio Did you know that as of April 12 only 37.6 % of the residents have logged in using the new software system? Okay, we need the balance of the community to implement the log in process and start using the Gate Works system. For residents without a computer please continue to call the gate. These people are very few in the community. If more residents would use the online guest access, the guards would be able to process guests through the gate faster. When you don’t pre-authorize your guests, this forces the guard to make a call to your home and leave a message. If there are six cars in line and no one has pre-authorized the guest, this means six calls, a back-up and a longer wait time for each guest. If you have not logged in yet and updated your personal information, please take a moment to do so. You can now take responsibility for your personal and property information. This website has an icon tab at the top that will take you to the Deercreek Gate Works home page if you have not created your own shortcut. Once on the Gate Works home page you will see other pages that will help manage your information. For example if you have a large party during the holidays you can build the list and it will remain on your personal party list file. If you have another party, you can easily access your original list without having to re enter all guest information. If you have a maintenance company that visits every other month, under the visitor section you can use the visitor drop down bar to locate the company, (no more individual typing of the company each time they visit) or you can choose to put them on your permanent list. Pet information: You can list all specifics about your pets. In the event your pet is lost, any resident who finds a dog or cat can call the guard gate and through the Gate Works system the guard can do a search on the specific type of dog or by name. So don’t overlook this section. Over the years we have had many lost pets and for the most part we don’t know who they belong to when found or turned in. Most pages on the Gate Works web site also link back to the Deercreek web site for information regarding forms, covenants, rules, as well as a link to the country club. Gate Works is a great new system so if you are not part of the 37.6% using the system, you are in the 62.4% that are not using the system. *Most importantly, please use the online Gate Works software program to expedite your visitors through the gate. Use of the system prevents long wait lines at the gate for all visitors.*

The View April 2012

Sometimes to find beauty, one must look deep into Deercreek. This home belonging to Drs. Max and Katherine Billingsley was recently re-landscaped and presently shows Florida’s beautiful spring flowers. Lining the driveway are lantana, ornamental cabbage, begonias, African iris, liriope and marigolds. A live oak tree overshadows viburnum, ligustrum, loropetalum ,boxwood and variegated ginger. In front of the bay window are yellow hibiscus, red knock out roses, Mexican petunias, a sago palm along with a southern magnolia. To enhance the entrance, there is a kumquat tree on each side of the porch and a potted purple bougainvillea to welcome you inside.

Call the Guard Gate to Reserve the Pavilion

Pavilion

Are you planning a birthday party for your child or a picnic for a family reunion? If so, perhaps you might consider reserving the Pavilion at the Deercreek Playground for that special event. The three covered picnic tables provide ample space for a large gathering, and there is plenty of parking available in the lot between the playground and the Tennis Pro Shop. The kids can enjoy the well-equipped and safe play equipment while the older ones might play a game of basketball or volleyball nearby.

If you would like to reserve the Pavilion, please call the Guard Gate at 363-2147 after 10:00 AM (avoiding the morning rush at the gate...). The security guard will be pleased to record your reservation. There is no charge for use of the area. All that is asked is that you return the area to the same condition you found it and dispose of any trash you generate before you leave.
