We are excited to share that Amelia’s Food Cart will be returning to CHOA on Saturday, April 9th at 1:00 until 4:00p.m. It will be located across the street from 32485 Boones Bend Road. There is a 4 space parking area where the truck will be parked. It is right by the Red 6 tee box. Please come on by – walk, drive or ride in your golf cart to this enjoy this experience.
Please see menu below:
Please note the following message from CCC:
“On behalf of our residents, the Charbonneau Country Club wishes to thank the Charbonneau Golf Club for allowing walkers on the cart paths on the Red Course during the winter. Having an additional safe place to walk has been appreciated and well used.
Starting March 1, golfers will be playing the Red course in addition to the other two courses. This means more maintenance equipment as well will be on the Red course and cart paths. Thus walking on all the courses and cart paths is discontinued on March 1.“
Please note that the CCC is looking for input from all neighbors on the Edith Green Park.

As you know, we have seen an increase in the number of wild animals in Charbonneau- there have been recent reports and sightings of Skunks, Raccoons, Rats and Mice. Also, the local Squirrel population is getting larger. They like to chew on the sprinkler heads which can destroy them and then we have to spend CHOA funds to replace the sprinkler heads.
In order to try to stem this trend, we want to help eliminate as much of their food sources as possible. Therefore, we are asking that each CHOA neighbor refrain from feeding any animals and/or birds anywhere in CHOA or around your home except for Hummingbirds. This includes inside your courtyard also.
In addition, please feed your pets indoors only and don’t leave them unsupervised outside.
Thanks in advance for your help here to make CHOA a safer neighborhood.
Please not that CCC is working to organize a Charbonneau wide Neighborhood Watch program. CHOA is looking for some folks to volunteer to join this effort. If you are interested, please let me know- Barry -hbgconsulting@gmail.com or 503-754-0322.
Please see letter below from CCC:
“To All Charbonneau HOA Presidents and EPPS Key Captains:
In response to an increase in neighborhood crimes in Charbonneau over the past couple of years, the Emergency Preparedness and Public Safety Committee (EPPS) has decided to establish Neighborhood Watch (NW) programs throughout Charbonneau. As an EPPS committee member, I have volunteered to lead this endeavor and I introduced the idea to the Key Captains who tuned in to the Zoom meeting held this past week, and they unanimously agreed to the idea.
Using Charbonneau’s established HOA areas, we are asking the Key Captains and HOA Presidents to help get this set up by recruiting volunteers to monitor and administer the program. Many people have expressed concerns about increased crime; YOU best know your residents and who might be open to being involved. Before you start recruiting NW Leaders, please read about the National Neighborhood Watch program on the website: www.nnw.org. It will provide you with many answers to questions you might have as to how it works. This program was first established 50 years ago in 1972, and today has the backing of the Clackamas County Sheriff’s department who will be involved with helping us. The NNW website will give you instructions on how to set up your neighborhoods most effectively. To begin with, I am suggesting that at least two NW Leaders be assigned on each major street.
I plan to have the first organizational meeting with the NW Leaders you have recruited on March 15th at 4:00 pm in the CCC dining room, during which myself and other EPPS members will try to answer any questions you might have and help you as we move forward.
On April 20th we will have our first official meeting in the CCC Pavilion building at 4:00 pm with Sarah McClurg from the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Dept., which will be for all of the NW Leaders to attend. Sara will give us the details on how the program works and how it coordinates with local law enforcement. She also will order signage and literature to share with each NW Leader.
I will check back with you around March 1st for an update as to how you are progressing with assembling your NW Leaders and hope you will be able to provide me with a list of names, home addresses, and email addresses. In the meantime, please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Thank you,

Folks,
As Winter is now officially here, we wanted to remind you of some basic things you can do to protect your home.
Protect against frozen pipes by insulating those that could be susceptible to freezing. With severe temperature drops, keep a trickle of water running in a few faucets to guard against freezing and bursting.
2. Stop the slips.
Keep driveways and sidewalks clear of ice and snow and repair any issues with steps and handrails. Be especially vigilant of slippery moss on your sidewalks and driveways that grows during our wet times.
3. House the hose.
Remove all attached garden hoses, drain them and store them away. Shut off the valves and insulate the faucet. There are inexpensive faucet covers for this.
If you’re heading south for the winter, you need to take extra precautions. Turn the water completely off and consider having the plumbing system drained to keep pipes from freezing. Also, have a friend or neighbor check on your home regularly to look for any issues. If a problem is detected, time is of the essence.
Please note that you can call Wilsonville Security (the folks that patrol the streets at night) at 503-207-5300 and let them know you will be gone and they will make an effort to check your address more often.
4. Clear the yard.
Keep the trees trimmed and remove dead branches and debris from your yard. Ice, snow and wind can weaken trees and cause branches to fall and potentially damage your home, car or even yourself and others.
5. Check the gutters.
Prevent ice dams by cleaning out your gutters, installing gutter guards (if feasible) and making sure the attic floor is properly insulated. The attic itself should be well-ventilated and about 10 degrees warmer than outside.
6. Seal the cracks.
Caulk around holes and openings to help prevent cold air from seeping in. Install weather stripping and seals around openings such as windows, doors, air conditioners and mail chutes.
7. Check the Roof.
Make sure that there is little or no Moss and/or missing shingles. Moss can catch the snow and ice and lead to ice dams and missing shingles can allow water to penetrate the roof and leak into the attic or directly into the home.
8. Have heating checked.
The manufacturers recommend that your Furnaces and chimneys should be serviced at least once a year to clear any buildup and to keep them running efficiently.
9. Test your detectors.
Residential fires are more common in winter, so it is important that all of your smoke detectors work. Check them monthly and replace batteries as needed. Write the date on the battery when you installed it. You should also consider installing a carbon monoxide detector (or in combination with a smoke detector) to avoid inadvertently trapping this toxic gas in your home.
Happy Holidays!
