WHAT A START!

well the summer season has arrived at la ----- near mobs everywhere -- people all over the community, kids riding bikes, playing ball, and just having fun-- people walking, with and without dogs, dogs barking (especially mine) everywhere-- the polar bears where in the pool and quite a few people sunning poolside-- the club house was jumping, toy bingo had a great crowd of kids with their parents--- had a hot dog and pepsi at the snack bar-- really good looking loaves of rye bread for sale as well as milk and oj -- hope they do well with the food sales -- sure beats running to lords valley---i think the crowd really looks as big as it was for 4th july of last year -- good start to the season

the la community is a good choice for the family to take a vacation-- near all metro areas and you can get here for less that a tank of gas-- even with gas as expensive as it is you can't go anywhere for less than it costs to get here (actually have you seen the air fares and air flight delays lately -- not goin far with that transportation option) and you probably burn more gas in traffic jams on a daily basis than it takes to get to la (Psst-- i may get a job writing travel ad copy)

so you must plan your next trip to la--- the next biggie holiday is the 4th of july -- so begin planning now if not before then ---

See ya!

welcome to the new bod

welcome and congratulations to the new board of directors--- and with a new president arthur berkey at the helm i'm sure the bod will be ready to work for the betterment of the community interests and guide la to all that it can be in the future.



the bod election only had 650 votes cast--- that not very many community members voting-- hopefully more people will get involved until next year's election so that as many members as possible are represented with their votes and their choices for the bod -- engaged members are interested members and that's good for la (we need a get out the vote effort?)

i think only one bod candidate was on the ballot for the first time this year-- while he didn't make it--- i hope that he and others will step forward and run in the next election cycle-- newbies must become known to the community and once people become familiar with the individual i'm sure they will do better in future elections ( after all look at sen. robert casey-- he ran for everything except dogcatcher before he was elected-- yea!)

i really do thank everyone who ran for the bod-- i'm a firm believer in the democratic principal of election of your representatives and those that ran should be congratulated-- enuf -chipper

activities

the lake adventure flyer that is at the gate was a special for the memorial day weekend--- it contained a very well organized and informative extra page devoted to the weekend recreation events---for members it was a helpful addition to refer to and see what was happening throughout the weekend holidays--good presentation and let's hope we see additional efforts like this to get la community families more engaged---- happy people make happy campers !(that's real corny?)

The minutes from the March 15th board meeting were published on the LA website last week and it addressed collection agencies. Too expensive for such a small population so "the attorney" (one on retainer or the 12' wide attorney--or one and the same?)will take on the project. By now, three months later, something should be in the works.


THANKS FOR THE INFO -- chipper
