CHRISTMAS EVE LUMINARIA: It is our hope that everyone will participate in the annual luminaria lighting on Christmas Eve. We are asking that each home obtain one bag of (15) candles unless you live on a corner, then you may take two bags of (30) candles. White luminaria bags will also be available banded in bundles of 15. If your plans take you away from home on Christmas Eve, please contact a neighbor to place the luminary in front of your home in your absence. This is a beautiful way to celebrate Mariner’s Cove and the Holiday, so we ask that as many residents as possible participate.
Sand is available by the pond on Fisherman’s Drive to assist in ‘weighing down’ the bags. There are 5 locations in which residents may pick up bags and candles on the porches of neighbors:
- Mark & Sandy Lynskey – 671 Seashell Ct.
- Mark & Jennifer Ritzenthaler – 571 Lighthouse Ct.
- Tim & Kay Tomesek – 626 Bay Drive
- Kevin & Lauren Hoffman – 1147 Tidewater Court
- Jared & Christine Jajack – 673 Sandpiper Court

Social events are such an important part of a vibrant community. The Social Committee plans, coordinates, and hosts neighborhood social functions throughout the year. Have ideas for new neighborhood events? Please contact a member of the Social Committee.
FAMILY MOVIE NIGHT: We are looking for new hosts for the Family Movie night for 2027 and beyond. If you have a space or would like to get involved please outreach the MC HOA Board to discuss.

FREE LITTLE LIBRARY: A new free little library is located near to the Mariner’s Cove Duck Pond and Bridge. A Little Free Library is a free book-sharing box where anyone may take a book or share a book. They function on the honor system. You do not need to share a book in order to take one. If you take a book or two from a little library, try to bring some to share to that same library, or another in your area, when you can.
