Bingo!

Status of Bingo

 

Based upon information provided at the April Board meeting, we will still have bingo. However, it is going to be different. Without a license, the campground is not permitted to collect cash for bingo cards or playing bingo. Prizes can be distributed to winners, but they must be of a limited value.

 

Some details have yet to be defined, but there are a number of people working to get the bingo season started, and keeping the members informed of the progress being made. Toward that end, there is a Bingo meeting scheduled in Rec Hall for Saturday, April 29th at 1:00pm. Anyone interested is encouraged to attend.

Golf Cart Stickers

 

At the April meeting, the Board an increase of the golf cart sticker fee from $20 tp $50 per golf cart. The $50 rate will take effect May 1st, so you can save $30 if you purchase your sticker prior to May 1st.

 

This year, you will be required to bring your golf carts to the office to get your sticker(s). Someone will have to watch you put the sticker on the cart and verify you have your lot number (in 3-inch reflective numbers) on the front and back of your golf cart. Stickers are available in the office now, so if you are coming up to check on your site, please feel free to stop by and get yours before the rush. Please reference Rule#8, c and d of the Rules & Policies.

---------- Some Reminders ----------

Assessment Invoices Mailed

 

Invoices for the Assessment have been mailed out. If you did not receive your invoice, please contact the office at (724) 738-0402.

 

The assessment is being billed on four separate invoices. The invoices are due June 30, 2023, September 30, 2023, December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2024, respectively. If any invoice is not paid by the due date, a penalty will be applied.

 

The member has the option of paying $300 quarterly by the invoice due date, paying monthly such that $300 is received by the invoice due date or paying in full at any time. To establish a monthly schedule, it is suggested the first monthly payment be submitted by April 30. The monthly schedule results in a payment of $100 per month for twelve months.

 

Credit card payments will be accepted by calling the office at (724) 738-0402 during normal business hours. There will be an additional 3% service charge applied to the payment for processing.

 

The assessment design anticipates every member taking advantage of the quarterly payment schedule, but as previously mentioned, the project schedule and payment schedule are such that the Association may have to draw against a line of credit to meet cash flow requirements. However, the requirement to use the line of credit will be reduced if members make their payment as early as possible. Any payment received prior to the due date will reduce the use of the line of credit.

 

Oops: A typo appears on the statement in that the due date year for the first three invoices is 2022. It should be 2023. The due dates listed in the Overview of June 30, 2023, September 30, 2023, December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024 are the correct dates. A sample of the invoice packet can be displayed below.

Committees Are Active

 

Camping season is upon us, and everyone is looking forward to another great season. There will be lots of activities, swimming at the pool, bon fires, and much more. If you think about it, keeping our campground running requires alot of work, much of it provided by volunteers. This might be a good time to consider volunteering.

 

You can sign up through the website on the Park Management page. Just submit the Committee Request Form referenced on the page, and you ready to go. Just think about it.

Keep In Touch

 

The Association makes every effort to keep you informed. The office sends emails and voicemails periodically to announce time-sentive information. Email blasts, like this one, are generated to give you updates on what's going on, and there is also a Facebook page maintained as just another alternative to keep you in the loop. As a Members Only subscriber on the website, you have access to Association information including Board meeting minutes, financials and other items related to Association management. So if your neighbor is getting notices that you are not, then chances are the information we have on file is not accurate.

Be sure to include your lot number.
