In celebration of Independence Day, we’re having a kids’ bike parade on Saturday, July 3. The fun will start at 9 AM with bike decorating in the park. We'll supply the decorations, but we hope you’ll bring some of your own to personalize your creation. Once the bikes are all decked out, we’ll ride them... Continue Reading →
Watch Your Step!
It seems we have a few issues that might make walking on some parts of our sidewalks a bit hazardous.
Mailbox Numbers and Paint
We frequently get questions about mailbox numbers and paint. I thought I’d post something about this to help spread the word. The paint color is Country Squire and you can pick it up at Sherwin Williams. Generally, a quart is all you need. We just recently learned that ADM Signs sells the numbers for the...

Sign Posts Painted
Have you noticed the fresh coat of paint on the sign posts throughout the neighborhood?

I’ve observed this in my own front yard from time to time. I’ve also seen lots of evidence of this in the park. If your dog,... Continue Reading →
