Master Association Assessments Going MONTHLY!
The 2015 Proposed Budget has now been formally adopted. Your 2015 KCOA Assessments will NOT
be increasing!
In an effort to make the Assessment payment easier for our residents to budget throughout the year, our
Board of Directors has voted at the November 18th Board meeting to collect the 2015 Assessments on a
MONTHYLY BASIS! The $65 Assessment will be due on the first of every month. A late fee will be
assessed after the 7th day of the month.
Now that we will be providing this GREAT service of monthly payments, we will
NO LONGER ACCEPT PAYMENTS AT THE HOA OFFICE
There are THREE EASY WAYS for you to make payments:
1 – MAIL PAYMENTS TO THE PROCESSING CENTER to the address on your coupon
2 – MAKE PAYMENTS ONLINE THROUGH THE KILN CREEK WEBSITE
3 – MAKE PAYMENTS THROUGH YOUR BANK
PLEASE DO NOT START MAKING PAYMENTS
UNTIL YOU RECEIVE YOUR COUPON BOOK
We know this will be a BIG change and it will be an adjustment to some of our residents; however,
I’d like for you to look at the bright side of this decision. By paying monthly, it means that you can
have some extra cash during the holiday season and again during the summer months! It is also a
more secure way to pay your Assessments by making your payments to the processing center, at a local
branch or online.
You are more than welcome to make several months of payments at a time if you wish to do so. We
also know that some of our residents use automatic payments online. Please make sure to double check
your payment arrangements with the new address on your coupon book.
Lakeside, Claymill Corner and Southlake residents will also be able to make both Assessment
payments at the same time; just ensure you submit both coupons.
**Thank you to all homeowners
that pay their assessments on time.
Your efforts are greatly appreciated!**

Happy Holidays!
-Laura L. Carnrike, CMCA®, AMS®, Acting Director
As I sit in my office writing this article, the first thing that comes to mind is all of the items that need
to get done around the office and at home before the holidays arrive. This is the busiest time of year at
my household, and this year it continues to be busy around the office!
In the midst of finalizing the budget, working on landscaping contracts, snow plowing contracts and
end of the year reviews, we have a much larger project to tackle this year as our office prepares to
MOVE! We have only moved one other time since Kiln Creek was built (that I am aware of); from an
office in the Maintenance Shop to the office in Fairway Plaza.
As of the end of 2014, our office will move locations over to the Golf Club & Resort’s old Tennis Pro
Shop located across the parking to the right as you drive in; officially at 970 Brick Kiln Blvd. We are
so excited for this move! We will finally have our office on a piece of land that the Association owns!
We know this transition will be a big change and we will keep you posted on the progress of our move
as it gets closer!
Not only are we going to be moving, but our office staff is going to have a shift in duties as well. As
Acting Director, I am now going to need our staff to shift a little bit in order to obtain maximum
efficiency in the new office space.
I’d like for you to welcome Sherrill Jordan as the new Rules & Standards
Coordinator. She will take my old place conducting the yearly reviews.
Sherrill has been my back bone for the last couple of years typing letters
for me. She will now be the one on the properties looking for all of the
items. Her smiling face will now be the one you see driving around your
neighborhood!
I’d also like for you to welcome Jenn Newton as the new Architectural
Review Board Coordinator. She will be the primary point of contact for your
exterior alteration submissions and meet with the ARB every other week.
She will also be helping to collect articles and advertisements for our Courier
Newsletter.
A BIG THANK YOU goes out to all of the HOA and Resort staff who have
helped through our transition over the past year and for all of your hard work coming together as a
team! We still have a lot more work ahead of us as we move into our new office over the next few
weeks!
Happy Holidays to all of our Kiln Creek Residents! May you not be as busy as I am, and I hope you
have a wonderful Holiday Season and New Year! We look forward to seeing all of you at our new
office in the near future!

Lakebed
Maintenance
-Josh Despinis, IPM Specialist, KCOA Staff
I’m sure there are many questions concerning what has taken place around the lakes over the past
few months. With the pesticide application and massive cutback of the brush surrounding the water bodies,
concerns are sure to rise. Hopefully this article will answer any questions or concerns about the effect this
management strategy will have on the ecology of the lakes and to inform those concerned about what to
expect in the future.
The herbicide used to kill a majority of the brush around the lakes was chosen for its extremely low
toxicity to aquatic life. The active ingredient is called triclopyr and is used primarily as a brush and Ivy killer
along roadsides and power lines. It is a selective herbicide, which only targets broadleaf plants. This chemical
will be used periodically to keep the cleared portions of the lake banks clear of any broadleaf plants.
As for the remaining brush on the lake banks, each plant was handpicked by myself for various reasons.
Maintaining ecology is my main concern and for that reason the following species were kept: Wax Myrtle
(Myrica Cerifera) for food and shelter for birds; Sweet Pepperbush (Clethra Anlifolia) is an important food
source for pollinating insects; Saltbush (Baccherus Halimfolia) is indicative of wetland habitat and is an integral
link in the food chain; and Oaks (Quercus Spp.) are the breeding ground for over 500 species surrounding the
lakes. I just wanted to share a few noteworthy plants with you.
The voids from the absent brush have been seeded with tall Fescue. The Fescue will help stabilize the
lake banks until our native species of grasses can propagate and out compete it. Soft Rush, Broomsedge, and
other monocots will grow no more than 4 ft tall, so the lake banks will be far more attractive and easier to
manage.
That’s all the space I have for this article. If there are any questions that were not answered, please
contact the Kiln Creek Maintenance Department and we will be more than happy to speak with you. Thanks
for reading.

Kiln Creek’s Annual
Angel Tree Program
It is that time again. They say the older you get the faster each year
passes by. If you are a senior with little or no family nearby, the
holidays can be a not so bright time of the year. Our annual “Angel
Tree Program” helps to make the holidays brighter for a lonely
senior citizen. Stop by the HOA office to pick up an angel from our
tree and help to make a needy senior’s holiday a little brighter.
We also hope to have angels on the tree to benefit the Peninsula
Rescue Mission. These angels are for homeless individuals who are
in a program with the Peninsula Rescue Mission or frequently use
the mission for a warm meal and a night’s sleep. Would you
consider helping out a homeless person in need of
some happiness this season?
Drop by the HOA office Monday through Friday, 8:30a.m.
until 4:30 p.m. and pick your angel off the tree. Gifts must be
delivered to the HOA office by December 18th. Thank you for
thinking of someone in need this holiday season!

A Dog at Every Turn
By Pete Hoyer
I am not a food critic, nor am I a master chef. I am
however, a hot dog lover, maybe even a connoisseur of
this American creation. Considering that my enjoyment
of eating the American hot dog came to me as a teenager,
many years ago, I retain some expertise in this category.
Summers were spent working in my dad’s soft serve
ice cream shop, a family business, in New York (State,
not the City). I consumed a minimum of one hot dog
each day. Aside from the creamiest ice cream this side
of Hagen Das, the store served hot dogs and root beer, the lunch time specialty. And the only item on the lunch
menu. No hamburgers, too time consuming and too messy my dad said. No regular sandwiches, who’s gonna
make ‘em, dad said. Hot dogs were easy to prepare by simply putting the thawed out dogs on the never ending
rotating spit and let them slow cook over intense heat.
Each morning, before the lunch crowd would stop in for a quick bite and root beer in a frosted, ice cold mug,
we stuck the wieners on the rotisserie and let them sweat and plump up for over an hour. Customers, the
“regulars”, ate them up. The county highway workers, the truckers, the Orange & Rockland utilities guys, local
businessmen, and housewives with small children out for lunch would gobble them up.
Working during the noon hours, I would keep an eye on the best looking, juiciest ones. On lucky days, these
remaining ones became the property of yours truly. Looking back, I know what makes a good tasting hot dog
into a great tasting hot dog. And the bun, too. Slowly warmed, slightly moistened by condensation, fresh bread,
not dry or a few days old, makes for a fantastic hot dog cradle. In fact, any fresh slice of bread when folded over
can make a suitable substitute for the bun.
This was proven to me many times as a youngster and even today I’ll conveniently “forget” to purchase buns
for home use. Occasionally dad’s store would run out of buns do to unforeseen influx of hungry customers.
Mom would politely and kindly tell the customer that Wonder Bread would have to suffice for today. “Oh, that’s
okay, Mrs. Hoyer”, they would reply, “The way you heat up the bread makes it taste just as good.” No one
turned down the hot dog because of the missing bun, which incidentally was also made by the same “Hostess”
brand.
Nowadays as my golfing friends and I make the turn from #9 green to #10 tee, my lunch snack of choice is the
hot dog, accompanied by a beverage. Over the past summer and into the fall, I have conducted my very own
taste testing: an analysis of hot dogs served at many golf course locations throughout the Hampton Roads area.
Why only hot dogs, you ask? As most golfers, I do not care to sit around waiting for and eating a larger lunch
when making the turn. After two hours of golfing, the body is warmed up, the swing is as good as it is going to
get, and we don’t want to lose our turn in the rotation. The fastest food, besides a ready-made cold sandwich is
the grab-n-go hot dog. Not all cold sandwiches are created equally, but a warmed up hot dog should be. Or so I
thought, anyway.
To balance the eating matrix only one ingredient was added for each encounter: chili. With this addition, the
meaty dog can still be savored and judged, and separate qualities of the chili can be assessed. This culinary artist
conducted a 6 month study using admittedly a non-scientific approach. Entries were judged on selected criteria
and plain old common taste senses. The criteria being analyzed consisted of: size, how it was cooked (i.e.
8
undercooked, overcooked, juicy, dry), appearance (i.e. plump, thin, meaty), bun (i.e. dry, soggy, warm, stale,
fresh), and overall taste and flavor.
The chili was rated separately although the combined ratings of chili and dog went into the overall grade.
Grades were based on school type grading system from A+ to F, happily none of the places failed with a rating
of “F”. Criteria for the chili were flavor, consistency, warmness, and overall taste complimenting the meat of the
hot dog.
Final results varied with grades ranging from C- to A. Remarkably, some of the “premium courses” in the
region did not fare as well as their counterpart city owned municipal courses. The Hamptons, a local muni, was
rated one of the best with a grade of A-.
The secret, described by Angela the cook, server, and supervisor at Mulligan Pub & Grille is in careful
preparation and superior ingredients. First, the hot dog is grilled, then allowed to naturally cool, then heated
with the bun wrapped in deli paper together in the microwave for 40 seconds. The bun is “Costanza” brand
which she selected over others and the dog is from Sysco Services. The chili was warm and meaty adding
to the overall deliciousness and food quality. The REAL secret to the excellent result, moreover, is the care
and concern Angela has for food service and customer satisfaction with personal attention being the required
ingredient.
The TOP DOG in the analysis narrowly edging out Mulligan’s is served at Kiln Creek’s Manchester Grille.
It came out hot, plump, tasty, slightly overcooked with seared outer edges. Hearty chili enhanced the overall
creation. And added benefit was a dog and a half, there was more than 1 wiener in there which filled the
oversized bun more than adequately.
Both lunches were served with crisp, crunchy potato chips as part of the deal. Other restaurants or course snack
bars did not include the chips, which are helpful to round out a quick lunch on the go. Price range including a
soft drink was $5.73 at the Hamptons to $6.95 at Kiln Creek.
Other courses given satisfactory, yet lesser grades in
the category were: Kiskiack (B+); Stonehouse (B+);
The Woodlands (B); Newport News at Deer Run (B-);
Williamsburg National (C+); Riverfront (C); Bide-AWee (C); and Chesapeake G.C. (C-).
For complete results with details on each rating, send
your request thru this publication.
Hot dogs and chili are an American staple and golfers
as well as all consumers want the best, not food that is
poorly prepared or offered in a haphazard way. Golf
courses can offer some of the best food choices for a
quick, inexpensive lunch, not to be overlooked. While
you are there, don’t forget the chili.

Review Update
-Laura L. Carnrike, CMCA®, AMS®, Acting Director
Hello once again! I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving and are looking forward to the upcoming holiday
season!!
As you know from my previous article, Sherrill Jordan will be taking my place doing the Community Reviews
next year. She will start giving her updates in the next issue of the Courier. For now, the Follow Up to your
Community Reviews are still being worked on. Sherrill and I have completed several neighborhood follow up
reviews; however, it will take us throughout the winter to finish all of the neighborhoods. So if you get a letter
in the middle of January, don’t fret. We will definitely give you enough time to have the items completed as the
weather permits.
Please know that our review process is a year-round job. By the time we’re done at the end of the winter, it’s
time to start all over-again in the spring. If you do happen to receive a notice from myself or Sherrill and need
an extension, please don’t hesitate to call the office or email Sherrill at [email protected]
The Board of Directors, the KCOA Staff, and your neighbors appreciate all of your hard work in keeping your
home and our neighborhoods looking beautiful!!
**Please note that we still continue to take pictures of each house as we finish updating our database. There
are still a handful of neighborhoods we have not gotten pictures of yet.**
Questions & Answers
Q. How may I review the budget for next
year?
A. You may view the budget online at www.
kilncreek.org. You can also pick up a hard
copy of the budget from our office 8:304:30 M-F.
Q. May I place un-bagged leaves on the
curb for trash pick up?
A. NO. Please see city/county schedule to
the right for more information.
Q. Who is responsible for plowing any snow
on my street?
A. If your neighborhood has private streets;
your property management company
is responsible for hiring a contractor
to plow your streets. If you live on a
public Newport News street, the city is
responsible for your street, and if you live
on a public York County street, VDOT is
responsible for your street. Please note
that Kiln Creek Parkway and Brick Kiln
Blvd. are considered secondary streets
and it may take some time for them to
be plowed. The village interior streets
typically do not get plowed.
2014-2015
LEAF COLLECTION
We all have leaves to pick up and dispose of during the fall
and winter months. We would like to take a moment to
remind you that placing un-bagged leaves on your curb is
PROHIBITED in Kiln Creek. All leaves must be placed in
clear plastic bags in order to be picked up on the curb by
the city/county (NO BLACK BAGS PLEASE). You can
always put leaves in your trash bin for regular pick up. Leaf
vacuuming will NOT be conducted in Kiln Creek by either
Newport News or York County.
Yorktown: There are specific weeks for bagged
leaves to be picked up. PLEASE make sure to put
leaves on the curb during the scheduled weeks only!
Owners that have leaves on the curb during the nonscheduled weeks will be sent notice to have the leaves
removed immediately. All leaves must be placed
on the curb no earlier than 5:00pm Sunday evening
before the scheduled pick up.
Bagged leaves are permitted to be on the curb during these weeks only:
December: 1-5, 15-19, 29-Jan2
January: 12-16, 26-30
Newport News: Leaf pick up is the same day as bulk
trash pickup; every other week. Bagged leaves may
be put on the curb after 5:00pm the Sunday evening
prior to the next bulk trash pick up. Bulk trash dates
are as follows:
10
December: 8th & 22nd
January 5th & 20th (Tuesday after holiday)
KCOA OFFICE IS MOVING!!!
The Association Office will be moving to the Resort Area, hopefully as soon as the
middle of December! The office building on the right hand side of the parking lot
as you drive into the Golf Course & Resort Area (previously the old tennis pro shop)
will now be the NEW KCOA OFFICE!
Our official Address will now be 970 Brick Kiln Blvd., N.N., VA 23602. Since there
are a lot of new changes taking place at this
time, we ask that you PLEASE DO NOT
mail anything to our new address until January
1, 2015 so we can ensure that the transition
has gone smoothly.
Thank you, and see you at the new office!

Holiday Safety Tips - Safe Kids Worldwide
http://www.safekids.org/holiday-safety-tips
Decorate Your Tree With Your Kids in Mind •
Kids are curious and will want to play with the ornaments on the tree, so you might as well prepare. Move the ornaments that
are breakable or have metal hooks towards the top of the tree. That makes room at the bottom for the ones that are safer for
young kids.
Water the Tree Regularly
•
Natural trees look beautiful and smell great, but if they’re not watered regularly, needles can dry out and pose a potential fire
hazard. Make sure your tree has plenty of water by checking it regularly.
Check the Lights
•
Lights are one of the best parts of holiday decorating. Take a look at the ones on your tree and in and around your home for
exposed or frayed wires, loose connections or broken sockets.
Blow Out Candles and Store Matches Out of Reach
•
•
Keep holiday candles at least 12 inches away from anything that can burn, and don’t forget to blow them out when you leave
the room or before you go to sleep.
Make a habit of placing matches and lighters in a safe place, out of children’s reach. Avoid novelty lighters or lighters that
look like toys.
Keep Harmful Plants Out of Reach
•
•
Plants can spruce up your holiday decorating, but keep those that may be poisonous out of reach of children or pets. This
includes mistletoe berries, holly berry, and Jerusalem cherry.
In a poison emergency, call the national Poison Control Center at 1- 800-222-1222.
Find the Perfect Toy for the Right Age
•
•
Consider your child’s age when purchasing a toy or game this holiday season. It’s worth a second to read the instructions and
warning labels to make sure the gift is just right.
Before you’ve settled on the perfect toy, check to make sure there aren’t any small parts or other potential choking hazards.
Keep Button Batteries Away from Young Kids
•
Keep a special eye on small pieces, including button batteries that may be included in electronic toys. While these kinds of
games are great for older kids, they can pose a potential danger for younger, curious siblings.
Don’t Forget a Helmet for New Bikes or Other Toys
•
If your child’s heart is set on a bike, skateboard or scooter this holiday season, be sure to include a helmet to keep them safe
while they’re having fun.
Prevent Spills with Pot Handles
•
Kids love to reach, so to prevent burns from hot holiday food or liquid spills, simply use the back burner of your stove and
turn pot handles away from the edge.
Engage Older Kids in Cooking
•
Teach older responsible kids how to cook safely. Teach them never to leave the kitchen while they’re using the stove or
oven. Instruct older kids to use oven mitts or potholders to remove items from the oven or stove and teach them how to use a
microwave safely.
Check Your Car Seat Before Holiday Travel
•
Seventy-three percent of car seats are not used or installed correctly, so before you hit the road, check your car seat. If you
are having even the slightest trouble, questions or concerns, certified child
passenger safety technicians are able to help or even double check your
work.
Use Booster Seats
•
Safety in the car goes beyond your little ones. Kids who have outgrown a
forward-facing harness seat are not ready for a seat belt or front seat yet.
They are safest in a booster seat that enables the adult seat belt to fit properly.
Even when children have graduated from booster seats, they should remain
in the back seat until they reach the age of 13.
Have an Exit Strategy on the Road
•
So now the car is packed, the kids are in the right seat, the seats are installed
properly, and you’re on the open road. Nothing can stop you now, right?
Wrong. That’s when you hear that all too familiar “howl that means “I want
food” or “Change my diaper.” When it happens, please don’t worry about
making good time. Instead, get off at the next exit and find a safe area to feed
or change your child.

Martin Luther King, Jr. Day
Observed January 19, 2015
KIDS CORNER
January 15, 1929- April 4, 1968
The campaign for a federal holiday in King’s
honor began soon after his assassination.
Ronald Reagan signed the holiday into law in
1983, and it was first observed in 1986.
At first, some states resisted observing the holiday,
and it was given alternative names or combined
with other holidays. It was officially observed in
all 50 states for the first time in the year 2000.
CHRISTMAS - HANUKKAH - KWANZAA
DIWALI - SNOWMAN - PRESENTS
DRADLE - LIGHTS - KINARA
**Please note that the KCOA Resident Services
Office will be closed on Monday, January 19th in
observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.**

HOLIDAY PET SAFTY TIPS FROM THE ASPCA
https://www.aspca.org/pet-care/holiday-safety-tips
Holly, Jolly and Oh-So-Safe! - Of course you want
to include your furry companions in the festivities, pet
parents, but as you celebrate this holiday season, try to
keep your pet’s eating and exercise habits as close to
their normal routine as possible. And be sure to steer
them clear of the following unhealthy treats, toxic plants
and dangerous decorations:
That Holiday Glow - Don’t leave lighted candles
unattended. Pets may burn themselves or cause a fire
if they knock candles over. Be sure to use appropriate
candle holders, placed on a stable surface. And if you
leave the room, put the candle out!
Wired Up - Keep wires, batteries and glass or plastic
ornaments out-of paws’ reach. A wire can deliver a
potentially lethal electrical shock and a punctured
battery can cause burns to the mouth and esophagus,
while shards of breakable ornaments can damage your
pet’s mouth.
O Christmas Tree - Securely anchor your Christmas
tree so it doesn’t tip and fall, causing possible injury to
your pet. This will also prevent the tree water—which
may contain fertilizers that can cause stomach upset—
from spilling. Stagnant tree water is a breeding ground
for bacteria and your pet could end up with nausea or
diarrhea should he imbibe.
House Rules - If your animal-loving guests would like
to give your pets a little extra attention and exercise
while you’re busy tending to the party, ask them to feel
free to start a nice play or petting session.
Tinsel-less Town - Kitties love this sparkly, lightcatching “toy” that’s easy to bat around and carry
in their mouths. But a nibble can lead to a swallow,
which can lead to an obstructed digestive tract, severe
vomiting, dehydration and possible surgery. It’s best to
brighten your boughs with something other than tinsel.
Put the Meds Away - Make sure all of
your medications are locked behind secure doors, and be
sure to tell your guests to keep their meds zipped up and
packed away, too.
No Feasting for the Furries - By now you know not
to feed your pets chocolate and anything sweetened
with xylitol, but do you know the lengths to which an
enterprising fur kid will go to chomp on something
yummy? Make sure to keep your pets away from the
table and unattended plates of food, and be sure to
secure the lids on garbage cans.
Careful with Cocktails - If your celebration includes
adult holiday beverages, be sure to place your
unattended alcoholic drinks where pets cannot get to
them. If ingested, your pet could become weak, ill and
may even go into a coma, possibly resulting in death
from respiratory failure.
Toy Joy - Looking to stuff your pet’s stockings?
Choose gifts that are safe. • Dogs have been known to tear their toys apart
and swallowing the pieces, which can then become
lodged in the esophagus, stomach or intestines. Stick
with chew toys that are basically indestructible, Kongs
that can be stuffed with healthy foods or chew treats that
are designed to be safely digestible. • Long, stringy things are a feline’s dream,
but the most risky toys for cats involve ribbon, yarn
and loose little parts that can get stuck in the intestines,
often necessitating surgery. Surprise kitty with a new
ball that’s too big to swallow, a stuffed catnip toy or
the interactive cat dancer—and tons of play sessions
together.
New Year’s Noise - As you count down to the new
year, please keep in mind that strings of thrown confetti
can get lodged in a cat’s intestines, if ingested, perhaps
necessitating surgery. Noisy poppers can terrify pets and
cause possible damage to sensitive ears. A Room of Their Own - Give your pet his own quiet
space to retreat to—complete with fresh water and a
place to snuggle. Shy pups and cats might want to hide
out under a piece of furniture, in their carrying case or in
a separate room away from the hubbub.
Forget the Mistletoe & Holly - Holly, when ingested,
can cause pets to suffer nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea. Mistletoe can cause gastrointestinal upset and
cardiovascular problems. And many varieties of lilies,
can cause kidney failure in cats if ingested. Opt for justas-jolly artificial plants made from silk or plastic, or
choose a pet-safe bouquet.
Leave the Leftovers - Fatty, spicy and no-no human
foods, as well as bones, should not be fed to your furry
friends. Pets can join the festivities in other fun ways
that won’t lead to costly medical bills.

Friendly Reminders from the Office
Mailing Address:
SELLING YOUR HOME?
We have recently had several owners contact our
office because they were not receiving their mail.
Please note that it is the sole responsibility of the
HOMEOWNER to provide us with their most recent
mailing address. We are legally required to send
notices to the last address we have on file for you.
There is no way for us to know that you have moved,
or have a new address unless you contact us.
Unfortunately, a phone call will not suffice; PLEASE
stop by our office to change your address –or- submit
your new address in writing to our office via mail,
email: [email protected], or fax:757-877-9862.
The Virginia
Property Owner’s
Act requires
the seller to
obtain from the
homeowners
association
a Disclosure
Package and to
provide this to
the purchaser.
The package
contains important
information regarding your community such as
the budget, rules and regulations, governing
documents, current cash in reserve accounts
etc… It also contains information about your
specific lot regarding any violations. The purchaser
may cancel the contract within three (3) days
after receiving the Disclosure Package or being
notified that the package will not be available.
This is one of the reasons it is good to order your
package promptly. The Association has 14 days
to provide the package once ordered. There is
a $100 charge for the package and it must be
ordered and paid in full before the package can be
processed. *Please note that the Association now
conducts on-foot front and backyard inspections
of your lot for the disclosure package. You will
be asked to sign a statement to this effect when
ordering your package. As soon as you receive
a written contract to purchase your home, make
sure you order the package in a timely manner by
calling the HOA office at 757-877-9835.
Golf Club & Resort and
Rec. Center Rental
Did you know that we now have a wonderful location
for you to host your large-scale events? The Golf
Club & Resort can accommodate up to 180 people
for dining or 350 people theatre style for your party!
For smaller parties you can reserve a specific
room. The Rec. Center above the HOA pool is also
available to rent for smaller parties up to 70 people.
It’s definitely not too early to book your holiday party,
birthday party, anniversary party, or family gathering.
Call us today! KCGC&R:874-2600 or HOA:877-9835.
Pet Owners:
Please be mindful of others and clean up after your
pet. We receive complaints about dogs and cats
doing this nearly every week. Please curb your
pets, and stay off any lawns that you do not have
permission to go on. There are also doggy stations
all along the walking trails. Your assessments help
pay for this service, and pet waste is also a health
hazard. Remember, pets must be on a leash and
accompanied by a responsible person at all times,
except when in a fenced rear yard. Pets shall not be
tethered.
Holiday Decorations:
Notary Public Available
• Seasonal decorations may be displayed during
the calendar year’s seasonal dates.
• Holiday decorations may be displayed for up to
14 days before and 7 days after each holiday.
• Christmas and Hanukkah decorations may be
displayed from Thanksgiving to January 10th of
each year.
• There is no problem if you celebrate another
holiday in which your decorations will be
displayed longer than the timeframes above;
however, we ask that you please contact our
office so that we can make a note of this in your
file.
Please remember to winterize your sprinkler system’s
back flow preventer. Each year we have a few
homes that forget to winterize, and have breaks/leaks
from their sprinkler systems due to the freezing winter
temperatures. Winterizing will help prevent this from
happening.
Did you know that the HOA office has a Notary
Public? We offer this service to our residents at no
charge. Please call ahead to schedule a time to
speak with a notary so that you can be assured one
is on duty when you arrive.

HELPING HANDS PROGRAM
Because we receive calls quite often asking if we know of neighborhood kids who can provide services to the residents
such as baby sitting, yard work etc., we have created this list. These individuals are willing to provide services to the
community. Please contact the individuals directly for services and negotiations of services.
