June 2011 Newsletter

Last Day to Pay Dues without Late Fee
Dues must be paid by June 6th to avoid a 10% late penalty. You may make an appointment to come to my home on the dates and times provided below, or mail your dues and make arrangements to pick up your key later at a mutually agreed upon time. I will not be taking appointments on Monday June 6th, so plan ahead.

Pay Your Dues and Pick Up Keys
Members must pay dues and sign a release form in order to pick up a key. Members who want two keys will be charged $5.00 for the second key. Two appointment days remain; call and make yours.


  • Thursday, June 2nd: 6:00-7:00 PM

  • Sunday, June 5th: 1:30-3:30 PM

Opening Potluck
The Pool Board is hosting a potluck Saturday June 11th at 6:30 PM. Please join us for food, fun, and an opportunity to meet and greet friends and neighbors. Bring a main dish and a side or dessert to share. The pool will provide plates, utensils, and water to drink.

Memberships Available
The pool has some open memberships available for sale or rent. Invite your friends and neighbors to join and become part of the club. For more information contact Karen Buxton, 375-3140.

Ad Hoc Committee Updates
Ken Buxton, Brad Jenkins, and Jan Stephan have been busy making and suggesting improvements to the pool. Brad and Ken repaired the underground sprinkler system so that it no longer leaks at the parking lot exit. In addition the committee submitted two estimates for repaving the pool parking lot. The board approved the low bid and Project Manager Jan Stephan will oversee parking lot improvements.
