*** We have LOTS to get done and we need everyone's help! Please try to come for at least a 3-hour period. 9 - 5 is so that everyone can try and squeeze in some much appreciated help - from bathroom cleaning, to moving rip/rap to the creek bank, to construction repairs).

Other important news/updates:
- We elected our new 2010 Board of Directors and Officers <http://www.hhstc.com/Board.html> . We also welcomed new Board Member Ann Hickman, who will serve on the Social Committee. And we want to send a BIG THANK YOU to Spencer Scarborough, for all the many years and countless hours he put into the Club.
- The baby pool will be resurfaced in early May.
- We had to remove some dead/hazardous trees over the winter and fix 2 fences (costs we had not expected to incur).
- Winter was hard on the parking lot and the creek bank, but we are hoping to do some low-cost repairs/improvements to them during the work days.
- We are planning for major bathroom cleanings, along with some minor cosmetic improvements (also to be done during work days).
- We made a very large pre-payment towards our outstanding loan balance, getting us almost 2.5 years closer to the pay-off date.
- We have upgraded our financial software, along with our budget categories and are hoping to be able to provide detailed financial reports to the membership in the near future.
- We are hoping to build a new deck before the pool opens, but it is all contingent on cash flow and membership numbers - so please pay your dues on time!
- Unless we have a large number of new members (and their initiation fees) we believe the clubhouse flooring will have to wait another year.
- We have signed a contract with a different pool management company - USA Pools <http://www.usapools.com/> . They offered a very competitive price and we are excited about working with them.
- Our Guard Manager from last year, Nick Sharda will be returning again this summer, under the new company - which is great news for us!
- We decided not to cap membership this year, but if our growth trends continue, we will probably be looking at a wait list in 2011.
