2015

  • The parking lot was resealed in the fall (should be performed again in 5-7 years).

2016

  • First full winter of use with the new pool cover (better water quality, less debris, no need to acid-clean the marcite and conserves water).
  • Implementation of a recycling program.
  • Locks re-keyed.
  • New play scape and swing set installed.

2017

  • Several sections of the concrete pool deck were replaced.
  • A large wind storm (records suggest March 8th, 2017) caused significant damage:
    • A large section of shingles ripped off of the large pavilion.
    • The vinyl ceiling of the large pavilion was blown off along with several light fixtures.
    • The sump pump and heater in the pump house failed due to the power outage. This resulted in the main pool pump, slide pump and other mechanical/electrical components to be submerged and ultimately freeze.
  • The recycling program was ended due to a lack of availability with the waste companies.
  • The Locust trees (near the tennis courts) produced a tremendous number of large seed pods; this happens every so many years under the right conditions.

2018

  • No major capital improvements.
  • Hosted league meet.
  • An extensive "deep cleaning" of the clubhouse floors, walls, ceilings and various rooms was performed.
  • Painted various areas, including the women's restroom.
  • Additional concrete deck replacement and leveling.
  • The starting block anchors were replaced.
  • The basketball poles were replaced.
  • Tennis courts were marked for pickleball.

2019

  • No major capital improvements.
  • New cameras (Arlo) system installed.
  • Minor painting touch-up around the grounds and clubhouse.
  • It was noted that the water gate valve was leaking and repair would be needed.
