Board Update: House fire Go Fund Me update, Jet’s Pizza on Wednesday, large trash pickup reminder, North Shadeland Alliance news

Eagle Nest residents,

Here’s a look at neighborhood news for the week of September 21:

GO FUND ME CAMPAIGN RAISES NEARLY $1,500! The Board would like to thank everyone who has supported our Go Fund Me fundraiser thus far to benefit longtime residents Richard and Sheila Jackson, whose home on Sandpiper Court was extensively damaged by fire earlier this month. Thankfully, no one was hurt, but you can imagine the devastating loss of memories and personal property.

In true Eagle Nest fashion, our community was quick to respond. Thanks to the generosity of our neighbors, our Go Fund Me campaign to help the Jacksons cover incidental living costs has raised nearly $1,500. And that’s in just one week!

This week, the Board will begin regular disbursements of funds to the Jacksons, but there’s still time to donate. The campaign will remain open and active through the end of the month, so if you want to donate CLICK HERE. Every dollar counts in a stressful time like this, so no donation is too small. Thank you in advance for your kindness. The Jacksons certainly do!

JET’S PIZZA COMING WEDNESDAY! Our weekly rotation of food vendors continues this week at the Clubhouse. On Wednesday, Jet’s Pizza will be on site from 5-7 p.m. with their special $5 personal pan pizzas in your choice of sausage, cheese or pepperoni. Hot, boxed and ready to go. (Cash only, please.) You know the drill: Get there early, because once they’re gone they’re gone!

Up next September 29: Chef TLC food bus (5-8 p.m.), will serve up their soul-infused, made-to order specialties. @chef_tlc is a fan favorite every time they visit!

As always, please observe CDC guidelines on social distancing and use of masks, and be careful entering and leaving the Clubhouse parking lot. Also, the Board asks residents to park in the back lot to keep traffic pathways clear. Thank you!

Other news of note …

LARGE TRASH ITEMS: A reminder that if you have large trash items for disposal, Republic Services requires advance notice to arrange appropriate equipment. Residents are allowed one heavy pick up a month on any Tuesday. Large trash collections are not done during the regular morning curbside collection; a second truck will pass through the neighborhood, so don’t panic if your items sit for a bit. All pickups should be completed by 6 p.m.

Permitted large items include furniture, carpet remnants, household debris, etc. Not permitted: construction materials, toxic waste such as liquids and combustibles. To arrange a pickup or get info, call Republic at (844) 737-8254.

NORTH SHADELAND ALLIANCE NEWS: The nonprofit North Shadeland Alliance has a great website and free electronic newsletter with the latest on city, business and restaurant developments in our area. The latest newsletter has key contacts, a crime survey, and an interview with the owner of Chile Verde, a fantastic locally owned restaurant in Shadeland Station! Check it out: https://northshadeland.com

That's it for now. As always, feel free to contact any Board member with questions, concerns or suggestions. Have a great week!

On behalf of the Board,

Board Update: Curb Appeal Award winners, inaugural Card Night on Oct. 10, live music Oct. 21 at Clubhouse!

The Board hopes everyone’s fall season is off to a great start. October is shaping up to be a busy month in Eagle Nest – read on! 2023 Curb Appeal Awards winners announced! The Board is proud to recognize the following lots as winners of our 2023 Curb Appeal Awards, presented to Eagle Nest owners for their outstanding lot and house maintenance. First place (tied): 8031 Teel Way , above left, (Lot 52, Clayton Napier) and 8111 Warbler Way , above right (Lot 229, Todd and Rokeena Williams).  Both homes underwent extensive exterior renovations in recent years, including new roofing, new siding, new paint, wood repair, landscaping and more (all pre-approved by the Rules and Restrictions Committee, by the way). The owners could have saved considerable money by moving to a newer home in another neighborhood, but they chose to stay and invest in their properties. Clearly, the time and effort paid off, as both lots are shining examples of how to bring out the best in a property. Projects like t

Board Update, 05-22-23: Pool opening, tags in mail; annual Garage Sale; dues deadline June 1; Annual Meeting and Board Election June 15

Image
Summer unofficially begins Memorial Day weekend, and that means our Pool facility will be opening for the season. Our main and wading pools have been power-washed and filled, and our guard team will be working to balance the chemicals this week. Weather permitting, we are targeting noon Sunday for opening, but watch the Eagle Nest blog and our Facebook page for the official day and time. For 2023, hours of operation will be noon to 8 p.m. daily. We have a great lifeguard team in place again this year. Their No. 1 charge? Safety. When it comes to rules, what our guard staff says goes. No exceptions. Violators will be ejected and referred to the Board for further action. Bottomline: This is a family-oriented neighborhood facility, not a public pool playhouse, and want to keep it enjoyable for all. If you paid your dues by May 12, watch U.S. mail this week for your pool tags and a copy of the rules. If you paid after that, your tags may be delayed as we process those who paid on time firs

Board update: Pool closing Labor Day, annual dog swim, Curb Appeal Awards, live music coming to Clubhouse!

Image
Pool closes Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 4  All good things come to and end, as the saying goes, and that includes our 2023 Pool season. Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 4, is the last day of operation for our facility, with hours from noon to 8 p.m. It’s been a great summer of swimming, despite a few mechanical and staffing issues, so please be sure to thank Pool Manager Samantha Burns and her lifeguard staff for a job well done. For the most part, our facility was staffed and open daily the entire summer, unlike many of the city’s public pools – including nearby Sahm Park. We hope to see all our guards back next year, but if you know someone interested in joining the Eagle Nest Pool staff, please contact Samantha. In the meantime, enjoy these last days of swimming! Third Annual Eagle Nest Dog Swim on Sept. 4 Calling all Eagle Nest dog owners: Bring your furry friend to the Pool at 8:01 p.m. Monday, Sept. 4, for our third annual Eagle Nest Dog Swim. Residents are welcome to bring their pets (no
