Another Long, but Productive Night...

Just a quick recap of our not-so-quick Board meeting last night. Let’s see...we are replacing ALL of the old pool furniture this year, mostly to save big on shipping costs (this will include 4 new tables/chairs/umbrellas), we are not paying for any landscaping this year (we will just have to rely on our workday volunteers and their chain saws), we are going with Bell South for our NEW wireless Internet, we are not getting the keypad entry (costs too much, can’t afford it), we are getting all new signs in and around the pool, we are not getting a cover for the baby pool this year (costs too much, maybe next year), we are going to have new super cool, personalized pool tags (you’ll just have to wait and be surprised!), the dirt pile by the tennis courts will be gone soon, the debris piles from the workday will be picked up in the next couple of days, we are getting 1 (maybe 2) BIG shade umbrellas (in addition to the 8 umbrella tables) to replace shade lost from the pine trees being cut, we have no idea how many members are coming back, since dues are not yet due and there was no late fee on the assessment deadline (but people will NOT be even allowed in the gate if they have not paid in full...we are serious about this!), our Memorial Day party is members only this year and food will be served (for a small price) from 11:30 to 2:30, we have had 6 new memberships already come in (yeah!), holes for the swim team flag pins will be drilled at the same time we install the baby pool fence, we are having a neighborhood open-house party Friday 30th from 5-10pm, the new 2008 hours have been approved and will be online soon (we are opening at 10am every day in July and August!), we are getting the clubhouse painted and all the doors replaced, and I’m sure there are many things I missed, but I’m not the Secretary, and is this not the longest run-on, most grammatically incorrect sentence you’ve ever seen?!?

It’s all I have time to do right now...
