Autumn Newsletter

Hello Neighbors,

As another season comes to a close, we want to THANK YOU for all of your generous support this year in helping to keep our community a special place to live. Your membership, donations of time and money, and participation in our activities and fundraisers go a long way in helping us maintain and enhance the place we call home. 

Although we have a long way to go, we made progress in our fundraising efforts to restore the pavilion. Beyond what is needed for routine expenses, we raised over $3,000!  We could not do it without all of you.  So once again, a great big THANK YOU!

Association Membership Update
We are pleased to announce that membership was up from 26 families in 2013 to 34 families this year!

WELCOME to our New Members!
The Brady Family, The DeSanctis Family, The Dicksen Family, The Harris Family,
The Izenberg Family, The Mufson Family, and The Torre Family

Important Reminders
This year we distributed membership badges to all Oak Hills Members and their families.  Membership is for the entire calendar year so please remember to carry your membership badge at all times when on Association property.   For insurance purposes, non-members are not permitted on Association property at any time, unless invited to an event.  Your cooperation will help keep our community safe and avoid any potential conflicts regarding membership.

Please Drive Slowly!  As a reminder, please drive slowly and carefully around the roads of our community.  Many of our roads are very narrow, and there are children and dog walkers frequently out and about. 

A Harsh Winter Prediction means…. Bears! Bears are a common sighting in our community, especially now, due to their foraging for their winter slumber.   It is time to bring in those bird feeders and make sure that your garbage is secure at all times!
