We are so blessed to have a great working space🚂 Showpeople’s Winter Quarters for our tenants AND visitors . Today we held a very productive Board of Directors meeting. We have an all volunteer board that is compromised of busy Showpeople and some attended via zoom while a few others had to make hay while the sun shines! 🌞 Today we give a great big shout out of thanks ❤️ to the family of Tom Dillon. It takes a lot to keep a traincar in working order and they have been a great blessing to Showpeople’s Winter Quarters

Field trip to Loomis Circus was so fun! Our residents ( Jenny & Thelma) joined the managers at Showpeoples ( Eric & Kolinda) while the circus was at the Tampa State Fairgrounds. As you can see from the pics Eric ( EZ) & Kolinda (Kozy) recently played cir us again when they were needed to help out at Kissimmee Lot. Once a circus performer always a circus performer!

Meet the property managers here at Showpeople’s Winter Quarters; Eric and Kolinda Zander-Hussey.
