Election Results Are In…
Spoiler, there is no results. Why? Because for the 2nd time this year, we did not meet quorum. So what does that mean? Basically, it means those of us still on the board, are still on the board. Now, I know that you know that I, Jason Etzel, your President, wasn’t re-running. I have spent 6 years on as President and my free time just isn’t what it used to be. That being said, I have heard personally from residents and some by word of mouth that many of you were happy with me as President. Which is great! That…

Wall Repairs & Painting
By now most of you should have noticed that the community walls have been repaired where needed, and all walls have been painted or re-painted as the case may be. Repairs include walls that had cracks or small holes, larger cracks or openings, walls that have failing foundations or support issues, were leaning out or have blocks missing or broken. We also found some pipes sticking out of walls where possibly residents have water leaking/coming through which can lead to more foundation issues in the future. Basically, if we found an issue, it was corrected. These were long over due…

Flooded Parks
Hello everyone! It has been a while since we’ve posted as there wasn’t much going on but with the rains and holidays coming up, you will start seeing some more posts coming soon.

Now for the parks… While it may seem fun to take a boat or other water craft out into the park, we must insist that you do not do so. It’s unlawful and someone could get…

New Community Manager for 2025
Though, it wasn’t long ago that we got another new community manager from Brown Management, some times things just don’t work out. As such, we now welcome Caitlin Nagle as our new manager. Welcome Caitlin! She’s not new to the company, however, and manages quite a few communities along with ours, as most managers do. She has already proven to be a great addition to the community by not only picking up right where our previous manager was, but also ensuring we get emails and updates on a timely basis; which to say is very important to us. We are…
