Over the weekend, sometime between Saturday night and Sunday morning, someone crashed the south exit gate damaging the control arm on the gate.  On the north end of the property, signs were pulled up and  strewn about.  There was also toilet paper left on the north end of Bldg. # 1.  Please contact the office if you saw any of this activity.

Thank you

A new gas grill was purchased for the swimming pool area.  It is a propane tank grill this time.  It is in the pool area, ready for use.  Enjoy!

The swimming pool will be closing sometime after Labor Day, which is next Monday, September 6, 2010.

Have an enjoyable Labor Day weekend.

A big Thank You to Gary Bloodworth for cleaning the tile in the swimming pool!!

American Fence is still working on the bid for the north gate.  It ended up being a little more involved than originally thought.  The gate will remain open until repairs are completed.  Hopefully repairs will begin in the near future, depending on availability of parts.

Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

For those of you who use the pool, you may have noticed that the water appears green.  We have been battling an algae problem.  Many pools in the metro area have been having this problem.  The frequent rains we’ve been having is the greatest contributor to this problem.  We are trying different remedies to try and clear up this problem.   Please be patient with this issue as we try to resolve it.

Thank you
