June Board Update: Pool fobs and baby pool, dues recap, lawn mowing reminder, Curb Appeal Awards and more!

Image
Summer has arrived in Eagle Nest, and the big neighborhood news is the opening of the Pool! Following is your June Board Update for more on that, as well as a few other need-to-know nuggets: Pool security fobs: Overwhelmingly positive support: That best sums up resident reaction to our new security fob system at the Pool this season. To date, nearly 300 of our 419 lot owners have picked up their fobs, a great indication of neighborhood appreciation for of our facility. To obtain your fob, you must contact Board VP Jason Van Meter jpvanmeter@sbcglobal.net or 317-755-7550 to make drop-off arrangements and sign a waiver/acceptance form. Fobs will only be issued to residents whose annual dues are paid in full and whose properties are clear of any covenant violations. For general Pool questions, please contact Pool Manager Sam Burns at samanthaburns51@gmail.com or 317-372-4329. As a reminder, our Pool rules are available on the blog . Huge thanks go out to Jason and his wife and Bookkeep...

Neighborhood Garage Sale today and Saturday, June 7-8!

Image
Today is the day for our Neighborhood Garage Sale! Yep, today and tomorrow 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Eagle Nest residents are welcome and encouraged to join their neighbors for one big sale weekend! It's the perfect chance to purge your closets, garage or attic (and maybe find a few sweet deals in the process!). The Board posted signs at all the entrances earlier this week, so we expect a fair amount of pass-through traffic. Please use caution as you drive through the neighborhood as we likely will see frequently stopping cars. Good luck with your sales, everyone! (Residents are welcome to extend/modify their sale hours, of course.)

Pick up your Pool access fob today 1-8 p.m.

If you haven't obtained your Pool access fob yet, today is the last day for in-person pickup. Eagle Nest Board staff will be set up outside the main gate from 1-8 p.m. today. A few things to note: What to bring: Your lot number and ID. Also, today would be a great time to turn in your Board election ballot. Who is eligible: Only residents whose dues are paid and cleared can obtain pool fobs. Want more fob info? ll residents were mailed a Q&A along with their Annual Meeting notice (June 26) and Board election ballot. Didn't get it? Let us know and we'll provide you a copy. Pool fob agreement: Our waiver/fob acceptance letter was mistakenly omitted from our Q&A mailing, so residents can sign one at the Pool when obtaining their fob. Guest pass protocol: We're still working with our legal team to develop a release form. Details coming soon, but guests are welcome if accompanied by residents with active fob access. Can't get your fob today? No worries, we...

Board Update: Pool opening and Pool Party, annual dues reminder, new social events team, Hague Road entrance

Image
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...

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...

Hague Road entrance sign destroyed in two-car accident

Image
Please use caution and watch for debris exiting our Tanager-Hague Road entrance. Our decades-old brick and stone sign was destroyed in a two-car accident about 10:30 p.m. Saturday, April 6. Fortunately, no one was hurt. Thanks to the Tanager Lane residents who alerted the Board and helped with initial cleanup. The Board will begin insurance claims this week, but it’s unclear how long that will take and when a new sign will be installed.

Register now or our March 16 Chili Cookoff and Beerfest could cancel

Image
We get it, everyone's busy. So much going on all the time. That's why a few years ago we combined two of our most popular neighborhood events -- our Chili Cookoff and Beerfest -- into one, hoping a bigger event would draw bigger crowds. Unfortunately, that's not the case this year, because the number of registered participants is down from previous years. Maybe nobody likes chili or beer anymore (unlikely). Or maybe schedules just aren't working out this year (more likely). Either way, we'd like to see at least 30 people registered by Wednesday, March 13, or the Board will be forced to cancel the event for lack of support this year. (We have 15 at this writing.) On the fence about attending? Don't be -- grab a friend, pop down to the Clubhouse 5-9 p.m. Saturday, March 16, enter a pot of chili or taste some samples, down a beer (or two) and hang out with some of the coolest people around -- your Eagle Nest neighbors! Click here to RSVP for the Chili Cookoff and ...
