Comments from Board Members

Dee thanked everyone for their patience as a new board comes together to learn, listen, and move forward toward a great new year. She suggested there be consideration to

She said the topic of advertising and liability for community events will be addressed at scheduled meeting with Keith 11/6

A portable wireless sound system was purchased for $139.99 +tx for community meetings, dances, events, etc. She said the Stage Curtain proposal seemed to be a dead issue.

Kathy welcomed new ideas & suggestions from homeowners regarding future events,ads, marketing, blogs, etc. She reminded that ALL clubs, hosts, event planners need
Volunteers.


Comments from Residents

One resident objected to $$ from general fund go to clubs
