Most of you already know Peter and Amy you will enjoy the following information they have shared:

Amy Muzzy Malin came to CP as an infant staying with her family at the Muzzy Sr. cottage. She is a joint owner of that cottage with her siblings. She has a long history in CP, growing up, going to play class and then being a counselor for several years. She had a career in publishing and was an interior design editor at Glamour Magazine while living in NYC and later in Dallas as a freelance editor. She was one of the organizers of the architectural guidelines committee in the late 1990’s.

Peter Malin first came to CP in 1977, and married Amy here in Castle Park in 1983. Peter is semi-retired from his commercial real estate consulting but continues to manage the land investments we have in Texas. He is currently the chairman of CPA’s Architectural Guidelines and Construction Services Committee which has been pretty busy over the past year.

Their family includes Gray Malin & Jeff Richardson who are members of CPA. They have twins, Dove and Max. Our daughter Lizzy Malin is married to Hank Nymark, and they have children, Charlie and Emily. Our love of Castle Park runs deep, all three Malin couples had their weddings at Castle Park. Both Gray and Lizzy ran the Barnswallow for several years. Peter and Amy are long distance grandparents and luckily, have been able to enjoy having all of their children and grandchildren with them in Castle Park for much of the summer.
