Association Committee Formed

 

A committee composed of Mary Van Kirk, Rick Barrett, Gail Allyn and Lori Denson has been formed with the task of recommending bylaw changes that would make the election process for the combined Lakeshore and Association more clear. If anyone else in the community would like to suggest changes to the bylaws, they are encouraged to contact a committee member. The committee will then make recommendations to the Board. Any proposed changes will be voted on at the next annual meeting to be held in January 2010.

Roads Report

 

Another road cleanup has come and gone! Spring Clean-up took place Saturday, April 18th.

The Clubhouse grounds were raked and picked up front and back. The playground was raked and the mat under the rubber chips was cut and straightened below the play equipment. Diane Bonar of Grounds will replace the tire and redo the rubber chips.

The parking lot was raked and trimmed. The two drains at the Fire Lane on LTW were cleaned out as well as the two leading into the lake.  All remaining drains along the roads were cleaned out. Com-munity plots were tended and brush and debris along LTE was trimmed and blown.

Chair Gail Chalfant thanks her committee for a wonderful job supplying coffee, donuts, water and a delicious lunch. They include Cacky Bell, Carl Bonar, Jane Dwyer, Carol Irving, Theresa and Ray Jones, Jane Roland and Bruce Scolnick.
