At our Annual Meeting, several folks asked if we could have our Board meetings in the evening for those folks who can’t make a morning meeting. We heard your request and are pleased to announce that our October CHOA Board meeting with be held Tuesday, the 9th at 6:00 pm in Rec Hall C.
We hope to see you there!
We’re having a
“MEET and GREET”
for Our new 2018 CHOA Neighbors
Please join us for cookies, coffee & cider
WHEN: Sunday – October 7, 2018
2:00pm – 4:00pm All new residents
3:00pm – 4:00pm All CHOA residents
WHERE: CHOA Rec Hall “C” 8298 SW Lafayette Way
Recently CHOA replaced all of the Common Area outside lighting on your homes (normally front and back) with new low energy LED light bulbs. See POST from August 17th.
We now have a lot of old “working” light bulbs. We investigated what to do with the bulbs and have not found a solution.
Since these are good bulbs we thought we would offer the bulbs to the residents. If you would like to take advantage of this offer, the light bulbs will be in a tub at Rec Hall C foyer. Bring a sack and take what you can use.
Given the 40 degree nighttime temperature and the amount of work it takes for the heaters to heat the pool all day, we are turning off the heaters on Monday 9/17.
It will take a few days to get around to all the pools to install the pool covers, so you may see your pool open until Tuesday/Wednesday or Thursday. Feel free to use your pool until you see the “Closed for the Season” sign.
We had an amazing Summer, see you next year
If you had trouble getting on, the Website is up and running again
The board has been investigating the costs and possibility of having a Kitchen at the Rec Hall on Lafayette St. We now have a drawing (draft) and have some estimated costs that match our budget and feel it is a plausible endeavor
Now that we have more information, we wanted to inform our residents to make sure that a kitchen is something that would be of value to all and to capture any additional ideas.
Because our master cabinet maker, who did the drawings, is leaving in October, we need to get a final OK back to him soon, so any feedback needs to be given in the next week or two.
On September 20th, Thursday afternoon at 2:00pm, we are having an informal meeting at the Rec Hall to discuss the Kitchen. We will have the drawings there to view.
If you are interested in seeing the drawings or just would like to be part of the discussion, please let us know so that we can plan on your attendance

We have had an amazing Spring and Summer!!!
Because we continue to have good weather, we will keep the pools open for your enjoyment as long as the weather is as nice as it has been.
Over 50 people attended the Grand Opening of the CHOA Putting Green on Monday, August 20th. Sparkling cider was served along with cookies. The ribbon cutting ceremony started at 6:30 and the putting contest followed thereafter. The top 3 placers all got a prize and the rest of us the realization that we need to start practicing our putting more! Now we have a place close by to do that.
Special Thanks for Karen Siegel for leading this effort.
