Week 40 Saturday Oct 2, 2004
NEW WEB SITE @ pelicannews.net

Hello everyone, I am pleased to announce a new web site for Pelican owners. It has been designed for me by Roy Martin. He is also a Pelican owner. Roy has spent several months sorting through all the information on my web site and organizing it into a more user friendly and readable site. We are looking forward to your comments. The new site is pelicannews.net give it a try. Judy and Roy

Subject: Do Not Use Windward Islands Bank ATMs

In the last few years, there have been several incidents involving fraudulent duplicate withdrawals made from the Windward Islands Bank ATM in front of Casino Royale, and we've posted warnings about it. Americans used the ATM and discovered when they got home that their accounts had been debited for multiples of the true withdrawal amount.

Now we hear exactly the same thing about the WIB ATM near the Peli Deli at Pelican Resort. Bottom line: This has gone on for years. At this point, we urge you to never use any Windward Islands Bank ATM for any reason. Until we hear that a few people have wound up in the slammer on SXM because of
these fraudulent transactions, this warning stays put. Don't use WIB ATMs.

Subject: The Rich's use of Pelican Facilities
Date sent: Wed, 29 Sep 2004

Judy,
Reading Bob Clement's comments in your Week 37 Newsletter on September 11th dealing with the Rich's unauthorized/improper barring of Pelican owners from the Marina Pool area, again raised the hair on the back of my neck. Those unfortunate owners who only have one week vacation and whose units are in that general area were deprived of 14% of their anticipated vacation facilities. As I have seen no
indication of what has been done to prevent the recurrence of such an event, I would suggest that we would all feel somewhat better if you were able to publish a copy of the letter which I am sure our Board of Directors and/or Pelican's Administration would have sent to the Rich's. This could supplement Bob Clement's suggestions. Bill Torrance. Unit B166.

BOOK EXCHANGE AT PELICAN B POOL
If anyone has any books, noodles or craft materials that they have enjoyed using while at the resort but would rather not take back with them, they can always leave them with me. I have a fairly large book exchange but new materials always appreciated. Also, If anyone has BOOKS ON TAPE or CD and would like to bring them down for me, I would appreciate it. I would like to start a listening book exchange in addition to the traditional book exchange. Regards, Kathy Singular, Social Activities Manager

PHONE CARDS can be purchased from Kathy for cell phone use while in Sint Maarten. See Kathy at the B Pool at 11 am or at her activities hut at the end of B pool.   

SkyMed - skymed. com 
 

SkyMed is pleased to offer to Pelican owners a valuable new benefit. SkyMed is a memberbased company that provides its members with emergency air transportation to their own medical providers when they suffer a critical illness or injury when traveling more than 100 air miles from home. Area of coverage is the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Rates vary, however as an example, we will provide coverage for a family for 7 days for as little as $79.00. Plans can be as few as four days and as long as five years. As an incentive to Pelican members we are offering reduced rates until March 1, 2004. Further information can be viewed on our web site at www.skymed.com or you can call our office at 8004759633. It is important to note that if a member requires our services they are transported to their home base and not the nearest medical facility. A Pelican member, Charles Legg was happy he had enrolled. Unfortunately, Mr. Legg experienced a serious medical problem and he had to be flown to his hospital in New Jersey. Because he was a SkyMed member, his cost was zero. (Dave and I are members).
