Board Update: Curb Appeal Awards, food truck Tuesday, free snow cones Thursday, directories coming soon

 Hello, Eagle Nest residents!


Here is what's ahead in the neighborhood for the week of August 10:

CURB APPEAL AWARDS: It's time to announce the winners of the annual Eagle Nest Curb Appeal Awards! Drum roll, please ...

First place: 8229 Tern Court (Lot 404), Stephen and JoAnn Hoskins


Second place: 7840 Teel Way (Lot 115), Otis and Janice Ashley


Third place: 8021 Teel Way (Lot 54), Duane Hall


Honorable mentions: 7809 Nightingale Court (Lot 332, below left), Jim and Claudette Lane; 8246 Hummingbird Court (Lot 415, below right), Greg and Mindy Knapp.


How do you win a Curb Appeal Award? Basically, it comes down to how your property appears from the curb - the landscaping presentation and overall condition of the home. (The contest was suspended in 2019 because of other neighborhood business.)
 
This year, there are so many well-maintained properties in our development the judging committee literally had pull winning addresses from a hat. Each winner earns a VISA gift card and the opportunity to display a Curb Appeal Award winner sign provided by the Board.
 
Curb Appeal Award winners set the standard for home ownership in Eagle Nest, shining examples of why our neighborhood is a popular residential destination. Well-kept properties translate into solid property values, and that's something we all can appreciate.
 
Congrats to all our 2020 Curb Appeal Award winners!

Board Update: Pool Party with free food, new fob access, cleanup crew recap; Annual Garage Sale June 7-8; dues deadlines approaching and more!

Hello, Eagle Nesters! The Board hopes your spring is off to a great start. It’s hard to believe with all the cold, rainy weather of April that the Pool will be open in barely a month. In preparation for that, it’s time to share a few updates about the 2024 swim season: Nearly a dozen residents turn out to deep clean the Pool A huge thanks goes out to the volunteer team led by Bittern Lane residents John and Cindy Spicklemire for organizing a deep clean of Pool facility on Saturday, April 27. The team of 12 spent hours power washing the chairs to address years of sunblock stains and removing wall grime, while others pulled weeds, cleaned the tables and swept up debris. In return, the Board brought in Jimmy John’s sandwiches, chips and water to keep our cleaning crew fueled up. That was a small price to pay for what would have cost thousands of dollars in labor and time to hire a contractor to do the same work. Be sure to give these neighbors a hearty thanks for their cleanup efforts: J

Memorial Day is coming – and that means Pool season is upon us! We have lots to tell about our opening plans, so here goes: Pool opening: Noon to 8 p.m., Memorial Day, Monday, May 27. Due to scheduling issues with our pool company, it was a scramble to get the facility power washed, cleaned and filled, so the water may be a little cold. Fingers crossed the rain holds off. Pool Party: Noon to 2 p.m. Memorial Day. Free hotdogs, chips, popsicles, lemonade, and beer for the adults. Weather: Given the rainy weather forecast for Monday, watch the blog and Facebook page for updates on postponements or closures. New Pool fobs: All residents in good standing can pick up their new Pool fobs from noon to 8 p.m. Monday. Board members will be set up on the concrete pad outside the gate. Be sure to bring your ID and lot number. Reminder: Only residents whose dues have been paid and cleared can obtain fobs. Want more fob info? Check your mailbox. This week, all residents were mailed a Q&A docum

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
