OVERVIEW

You may or may not already know that the way we dial local numbers is changing in the next few months.  A new area code, 442, will be added to the area currently served by 760. This will be an overlay, meaning that no one with a 760 area code will need to change their number. What it does mean is new numbers assigned will have a 442 area code. And we will need to begin including the area code in all calls we place to both 760 and 442 numbers.

TIMING

Beginning May 2, 2009 we should start including the area code whenever we place a call, including calls to other 760 telephone numbers.

Beginning October 24,2009 we must use the appropriate area code for all calls.

Beginning November 21, 2009 new telephone lines and services may be assigned numbers with the 442 area code.

WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE

Update any programmed seven-digit phone numbers in your speed dialing, fax machines, security systems and gates, etc.

Nestled between La Quinta, Indian Wells, Indio, and Palm Desert you'll find a very special unincorporated area of Riverside County know as Bermuda Dunes. Those who have discovered this little oasis enjoy its uniqueness and independence. Bermuda Dunes is close to most major desert attractions, including world class golf, shopping, and dining. In recent years, nearby retail has boomed bringing stores such as Best Buy, Target, Wal-Mart, Costco, PetSmart, Staples, and much more!

The heart of the community is Bermuda Dunes Country Club, featuring a 27 hole championship course. This private equity club has been a host to the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic tournament since 1960. The club features a beautiful 44,000 square foot clubhouse and boasts fine dining and a terrific daily grill. Golf and social memberships are currently available.

Bermuda Dunes has a wide range of home prices with condos starting at less than $200K and homes ranging in price to well over $1 Million. The privately owned Bermuda Dunes airport is located nearby for quick access by non-commercial flights.
