We’ve heard from several neighbors and other residents about having a great turn out during our most recent community yard sale last weekend.
The Board would like to thank all those who held yard sales and we hope during this difficult time, this community sale has helped out by adding a little extra spending money for this holiday season.
We look forward to having another community yard sale in the spring time.
This upcoming weekend, starting on Friday 20th and continuing thru Sunday 22nd, between the suggested times 7am – 2pm, we will be advertising a community yard sale. We will place banners at the entry points and possibly on Acoma.
There is nothing special you need to do, but hold your own yard sale. The purpose of this community yard sale event is to let the community and surrounding areas know so you’ll have a larger customer base passing thru. You may, of course, hold your own hours, the times we presented is only a suggestion.
Please feel free to share this post with your neighbors, friends and family and let’s make this community event a successful one for all!
We have added new signs on Acoma and 159th and 157th.
The above sign, which just says Greenway Parc 2, Surprise AZ, was done in a style that I created for the message board, a sort of unofficial logo for GWP2. It’s meant to showcase the bounds of the community.
The other, on 157th entrance from Acoma, sits just behind the monument on the west side. This is meant to inform guests and residents of this website, where all information and updates are posted to.
Really though, the main reason we added these signs is because we had already placed posts on those corners, which we use for the community yard sale banners. Previously, those banners were tied to trees or covered up the monument and we didn’t feel that was right. So we added the posts, but then the posts were just left there when no banners were hanging, which also wasn’t right. So adding permanent signs with useful information seemed like a win/win situation.
The message board will be returning soon, however in a beefier cabinet. But with the new sign, we’re hoping more residents will look to this site more for updates and events.
The new community message board was finally installed this past weekend. It is a much needed part of this community that has been missing; a central single space for everyone to use to hang flyers, lost pets and business cards and for everyone to find the latest information on HOA meetings, events and news. This is the one spot all residents should come to, besides this website, to find information.
Soon, a Lost & Found box will be added just below the message board as well.
As stated above, this message board is not just for HOA Board members to provide info to you, but also a way for you to provide info to the rest of the community as well. There are 2 doors on this message board, on the right is the HOA Board members side, which is locked. But on the left, you’ll find a keyless lock which can be opened by anyone, but we still wanted to ensure it was weather proof so we opted to have the keyless lock, still leaving the door in place. Inside, you’ll find push pins which you can use to post your flyers. Please do not take them and do not remove any headline titles that have been put in place, such as “Resident Posts.” Please also always ensure you close and lock the keyless door after use.
The Board would like to thank yours truly, el Presidente, aka Jason, as I built and painted the frame surrounding the message board and I donated my time to do so and VP Wayne, as he helped out in the concept stage and when I needed his insight. Here are some photos of the build.
The shed is just of HOA Board member use. Please do not try to break in or attempt to see what’s in there. In fact, I’ll tell you what’s in there, the community yard sale banners and some miscellaneous storage. Having this shed is just a way for the Board members to have to keep moving things from one Board members house to another, each time new members come and old member go. There is nothing of value worth stealing and nothing that can’t be replaced. That being said, we like our little shed and we don’t want anything to happen to it. See the lawyer speak section below.
The Board would also like to thank Anthony, our 3rd Board member, as he did a great job painting the shed to match the theme we had envisioned for the message board, and Cameron, our neighbor, for helping us with the install.
Please note that while we encourage all residents to post on the message board, any posts we deem inappropriate, offensive or in bad taste, and yes anything negative towards the HOA, Board members and/or any residents will be removed and said poster may be fined or reported to the Police, if necessary. Anyone caught doing any kind of damages, tagging or theft towards the message board and/or shed, will be fined the full amount to replace the all, in whole, the message board, custom frame and shed. In other words, don’t do it.
Also, do not post flyers to the mail boxes, as they are actually Federal property, and you may be fined if caught posting on them.
