Potluck

very enjoyable evening and potluck!
We’ll plan another in the fall timed when
more
snowbirds
have
returned!
Vandalism
We have had some incidents of
minor damage/vandalism at the
pool. Some is probably caused by
trespassers coming to the pool area
via boat, but probably not all.
All of us end up paying for this – with
additional charges by our pool
service or cleaning service. Please
make sure everyone in your
household is reminded to be
respectful
of
our
beautiful
community.
