Welcome Social

We had our Welcome Social on March 5th and no new residents attended. I want to thank the board members and current residents who attended and brought refreshments. Also, I want to welcome everyone to the neighborhood and please call/email anyone on the board if we can be of assistance.




Easter Egg Hunt


The Easter Egg Hunt was a wonderful time and we had a great turnout even with having to change the date 3 times! Mother Nature sure has a sense of humor! There were approximately 75 residents and it looked as if everyone had a nice time. I was glad to see everyone come out and share their Spring spirit, thank you to all who attended.

We wouldn’t have had such a nice event without a wonderful group of volunteers. A huge THANK YOU to all who made this possible! Thank you to our egg stuffers, egg hiders/set up team, anyone who helped during the event and games, and to those who helped clean up.
