Hello Southlands
Residents,
The
pool is expected to open around Memorial Day and we have a few items that need
to be addressed before the pool inspection. Our opening date is dependant on us
completing these tasks. As capable individuals here in the community, we wanted
to see if we could gather up a few individuals who might be willing to volunteer
their time and effort for a neighborhood work
day. We have a list of projects that need to be addressed and
we’re certain we can get most of it done in a day or two with some assistance
from the community. We really need your assistance and labor, and just as
importantly, we need your TOOLS. Please bring whatever tools you have for the
project you plan to work on, and we’ll provide the supplies. We’re trying to
avoid spending any additional funds to save for the new playground, and it’s
days like this that will allow us to do so. We’ll plan to have the grill going
to keep everyone fed and BEvERrages should be available as well.
We’ll be out
thereSaturday, May
2nd, 9-5 & Sunday, May 3rd,
12-6,
and am hoping we can get several people each day to get it all done.
Please volunteer whatever time you
have, even if it’s a couple hours.
Please review the list and send me an email if you feel
there’s something you would like to do, or be assigned
to.

It’s

well, we can also plan to have it all re-painted prior to the pool
opening.
With
all this work and new bathrooms, we should be in great shape for our 2009 Summer
season. Thank you all in advance, and please send me your availability as soon
as you can. See you then.
