PLEASE Volunteer. We need YOU! Especially in 2024.

There have been approximately 1500 volunteer hours donated to your community, between the efforts of your First(Dave Tyler) and your Second Vice President (Ed Nielsen). So far, we have been able to track just 20 hours from other volunteers. As you can see, both Ed and Dave are doing almost all the work. They are going to retire …..SOON.

As I am sure you all are aware, Ed has now resigned from the board and left Dave to do all that Dave does and whatever else that has to be done. The 2nd Vice Presidents position is now open. Please look into your hearts and see if YOU have will and desire to serve you community but to also save yourself and the rest of us a lot of money!

Dave (our current VP) is are getting to the point where he will soon retire. However he has not stepped down as VP’s of our Board. But since he isn’t getting any younger, he will need help to keep out place in the good shape that it is. However, rather than hire out an expensive contractor, Dave will occasionally need your help to get the work done!

Your Board of Directors, which Dave and the new 2nd Vice President are part of, in all fairness, would like their duties to be evenly distributed among the rest of us. So…..the Board Members are asking all of you to step up and volunteer to do the work. This act will insure that our dues remain one of the lowest in Washington. Contact any Board Member by phone or email to volunteer.

I am sure you realize that our monthly dues currently includes Security, Maintenance of the Common Areas, Administration AND THE TOTAL COST OF YOUR WATER! This is the water you drink and the water distribution system that brings the water to you.

If Dave can not do some of the work for “free”, as he has for so many years, that we all have enjoyed, we must volunteer to pick up their work somehow. The work getting deferred or just let go, is not an option. We are not allowed to defer the work to a better time or for a richer budget year, per our By-Laws.

Because the By-Laws were written and designed to keep us as stewards of our community, focused on making our community the best it can be, we need you to join us – and volunteer to help. You will not be tasked with a full time job, but your efforts will be very much appreciated.

Thanks so much to those people who have already stepped up and helped Dave and Ed!
