COME ONE COME ALL, …………. if you are 12 or under. HUNT FOR EGGS & PRIZES
The Annual Easter/Spring Egg Hunt will be at Pete Rix Park (on 134th Street) on Saturday, April 8th beginning at Noon. It is open to all Community children under age 12.
There will be two age “hunting” groups (1) up to age 6 and (2) age 7 to age 12. We ask that all parents assist in getting their children into the correct group. The younger group will start first, and then the second age group will be allowed to start. Please be patient.
Depending on how many children show up, there may be an egg limit. If that’s the case the children can help others find eggs.
KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR PRIZE EGGS!! Only one prize egg per child and the child must be present to accept a prize.
In addition to the egg hunt, there will be games to play.
For the SPRING of 2023, we will host the annual Community Clean up where members can bring a truck load of items to be dumped. A date has not been set yet, so keep checking the website. Also, the Annual Easter Egg Hunt and Fishing Derby.
Annual Meeting Update
Thank you to those members who came and voted at the Annual Meeting! We hope more people will come next year.
On the ballot were several items to be voted on, Board of Directors and the 2023 Budget. Board members were voted for a two-year term (The new listing of the 2023 Board of Directors is posted on this web page). The 2023 Budget was ratified (passed) by the membership in attendance.
We are still looking for another person to be on the Architectural Committee!
We had included a Survey about the height and type of fences for the front of our property. The outcome of the FENCE Survey showed that the majority of those that replied want six-foot fences, any style. The Board will be discussing next steps on how to implement this in the Architectural Declaration at the December 12th meeting at 6pm in the Key Peninsula Civic Center. Please join us!
If you miss this meeting, contact any member of the Architectural Committee. See the post on our board members on this site for contact information.
Water Boxes
You may see Dave or Ed or another volunteer in your water box, don’t panic! Each year they put bags of sawdust in the boxes to keep them from freezing.
Also, they do regular exchanges of backflows (gummed up ones with cleaned ones) so that the water you drink is safe from backflow of dirt and other elements.
Volunteers
Thank you to all the people that have volunteered this year! This keeps our cost of running the HOA down for everyone. If you have time, we are always looking for more people to help with different projects and events. This entry was posted in Community Annoucements by Chuck Wood. Bookmark the permalink.

“I caught one THIS BIG!!!!
ONLY THE CHILDREN CAN FISH. (Adults can fish after 12:00 noon.)
THE CHILD MUST SET THE HOOK AND REEL IN THE FISH BY HIM OR HERSELF. AN ADULT MAY HELP, BUT ONLY WITH CASTING THE LINE AND NETTING THE FISH.
THEY MUST KEEP AND BRING IN THE FIRST THREE FISH CAUGHT.
THEY MUST LIVE IN LAKE OF THE WOODS OR BE ACCOMPANIED BY A RELATIVE OR FRIEND WHO LIVES IN LAKE OF THE WOODS.
ALL CHILDREN MUST HAVE LIFE JACKETS ON IF THEY ARE ON THE WATER.
Note: According to Washington Dept. Of Fish and Wildlife all fishermen – age 15 and older – must have a fresh water fishing license. This applies to anyone fishing on our lake, despite the fact that it is a private lake and we purchase the fish. While the licenses are required by the State, we lack resources to check for complianceThis entry was posted in Community Annoucements by Chuck Wood. Bookmark the permalink.Edit
