First, a big thank you to Dean Fidecaro for volunteering to repaint the Strawberry Hill signs at the top of our neighborhood. They have been replaced and look amazing! This is a project we’ve been talking about for a long time.

Second, another big thank you to Cathy Keene, who coordinated the fence repairs to the chain link fence line that lines the HOA park along Bielmeier Road. Cathy worked to gather quotes from three different companies, ultimately getting two quotes after weeks of phone calls and waiting. Our first quote was the most responsive company, and the least cost. We used Star Fencing LLC. The owner, Chad Cravalho, was polite, on time, and completed all the work ahead of schedule. We had a great experience with Star Fencing (starfencing360@gmail.com or 360-865-0921).

And finally, we have been without a treasurer since the annual membership meeting. We had one neighbor volunteer to take the role is needed, but this neighbor is a part time resident and it is best to have officers who are living in the neighborhood full time.
Mary Mingles has agreed to continue serving as treasurer until another neighbor can fill this need. The board pre-approved this at our summer board meeting, anticipating that there may not be anyone willing to take the position. If you see Mary, make sure to give her a big thank you for serving for the past few years, and continuing to take on this position.
The board will investigate outsourcing our accounting needs in the future.
