Please always remember to:
Over the past week Snell Isle only had a Grand Theft of three Ice Coolers from the Golf Course. They were in wooden boxes that were left unlocked. No suspects.

Please always remember to:
The City of St. Petersburg has launched its first residential composting program. Residents in single-family homes who are interested in composting are invited to sign up for the free and voluntary program and minimize their environmental impact by turning kitchen and yard waste into usable, nutrient-rich fertilizer.
Participants in the composting program will receive a composting bin from the City to use in their backyard. There will be no collection service, but the resident will be responsible for feeding and maintaining the bin and will reap the benefits of the nutrient-rich compost by spreading it on their lawn or garden.
More information and the composting bin request form can be found at www.stpete.org/composting
SIPOA has planned a Family Summer Social at the Woman’s Club for a fun gathering on August 11th, a Sunday afternoon, just before school starts. We want to provide events that encourage residents to come out and enjoy the food, the fun and the camaraderie. Only problem, we have less than 5 reservations and we can’t plan an event without your support.
Your July Panther publication and the EnjoySnellIsle.com website each have details regarding this event. It's planned to be a catered party with games for both adults and children and we thought having it in the cool comfort of the Woman’s Club would make it a fun gathering. We’re happy to plan this party but it’s not cost-effective unless we have at least 75 people planning to attend. If this isn’t something you and your family are interested in, that’s fine, we can plan something different later in the year that might pique your interest. But please let us hear from you by Sunday, July 21st, if you’d like to join us.
Please contact our Communications Chairman, Howard Pollack, at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or by phone at (516) 356-0988 to make your reservation. We look forward to hearing from you!

Featuring performances by Snell Isle Resident, Bailee McQueen, and music direction by Constantine Grame.
Writer/director of Webb’s City: the Musical, local playwright, Bill Leavengood, brings us Drilled! the Musical, hailed by Tony Award Winning Writer/Lyricist Joe DiPietro as “a broad, go-for-broke political satire, chock full of expert and very witty lyrics."
