Forest Lakes Happenings
Aug 23 '08
Hello, everyone. Can you believe that August is about over, and the Labor Day Weekend is right around the corner ? Well, we at FLOA certainly can, as we prepare for our annual Labor Day Pancake Breakfast, to be held at the Fire House on Saturday morning, August 30th. Please come by starting at 7AM. There will also be all of the associated stuff you've come to know and enjoy, including the rummage sale, bake sale, Fire Department Ladies Auxiliary T and sweatshirt sale, book and calendar sale, and lots more. If you have rummage to donate, please bring it to Mary Reid at her home on Sheep Springs Road just north of the highway. Also, if you are available to help with setup, please come by on Friday afternoon around 2PM or so...we can always use extra hands.
The rain continues to fall in copious amounts, the official tally for the monsoon is somewhere in the range of 13 inches, although today there is bright sunshine and warm temperatures. The wild flower bloom is as good as its been in years.
An ice cream social will be held on Saturday, Aug 22nd at the Fire Department, starting at 5PM and running until 8PM, weather permitting. A few weeks ago the event was hampered by the weather, but lots of people still turned out and enjoyed the ice cream, pies, and good company.
Another big happening you need to plan for is the Forest Lakes Owners Association annual meeting. This will be held at 7PM at the library on Saturday evening, the 30th. Board member elections will be held, as well as a review of activities from the past year. This is a great forum to get informed on what is happening in the community, to get more involved, and to have your voice heard. Note that in order to vote in the election, you must be a paid member of FLOA. If you aren't yet a member and want to join, please contact Cheryl at the library, 535-9125. We will have our most up to date list of members at the door, but you may want to bring your membership card just in case.
FLOA
Just a quick clarification, in order to be eligible to vote, you would have needed to be a FLOA member prior to July 30, as our bylaws require membership to have been in effect at least 30 days prior to the election. However, you can still become a member at the door, but you will not be able to vote in this year's election.
Sorry for an confusion that may have been caused.
Regards,
FLOA
