JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT ELECTION TALK WAS OVER…..

We have an important election for the Master Board coming up on January 6.  As most of you know, the Enclave is the biggest association in Lakeside, providing a full 1/3 of the budget.  Despite that, we have no representation on the master.  Now is our chance to change that.  I don’t say that as a “we want to take over” or “we want to fire Sentry” plot with which we’ve been accused.  On the contrary, I am simply looking for our voice to be heard and to spur our residents to VOTE!  We have 626 households in Lakeside, and less than half of those households voted in last year’s election.   

I have absolutely nothing personal against any of the current Master board.  I do, however, think it’s time for a change in leadership.  We need better communication, transparency, and financial responsibility/accountability.  We have a beautiful community in Lakeside, and I’m sure that we all want to keep it that way.  

Starting very soon, there will be a committee of resident volunteers going door-to-door to hand out an info sheet and discuss any questions you may have.  If you are not interested in talking to the volunteer, please just kindly say “no thank you”.  There’s no need for rudeness at this most wonderful time of the year!  Speaking of which…

 

DECK THE PARK…..

The Jib Court park, that is.  A huge thank you to Irene Sanderson and the ROLL committee for decorating the park.  It’s festive and helps promote the beautiful spirit and magic of the season.  

Be sure to note that the golf cart parade and hot dogs/hot chocolate event will be held December 20.  There are sign up sheets in the clubhouse for those interested.

 

QUOTES WORTH QUOTING

Christmas is a season not only of rejoicing, but of reflection.—Winston Churchill 

May you and yours have a truly joyous Christmas, a Happy Hanukkah, and a safe New Year.  Count your blessings and think of those who aren’t so jolly at this time of year.  

Until next time, I’ll see you around the neighborhood.
