4th of July 2022 Memories
This year’s 4th parade was another memorable one. It was good to see so many neighbors in red white and blue, all the bikes behind the fire truck, and of course, the cool spray down after the parade.

So Nice to Meet You, Neighbors!
The 2022 Spring Fling was a warm one. No wonder the Frozen Margarita was so popular with the adults and the juice boxes and ice cream with the kids.
Speaking of popular, pretty much everyone got their face painted or received a balloon toy. I think we have a monopoly on the best face painter and balloon artist in town. Have a look a pictures for yourself.

From The HOA Board
Hello Neighbors,
I hope this message finds you and your family doing well. This is typically the time of year when you would receive the Annual Dues invoice from the Great Hills Reserve. However, the HOA Board has approved a one-time suspension/waiver of the 2020 annual dues. This suspension/waiver is in light of the exceptional COVID-19 situation, which impacts us all. The HOA Board believes there are currently adequate reserve funds to forego assessments for a one-year cycle; however, please keep in mind that if there are unintended expenses that arise, the Board reserves the right to and may levy 2020 annual dues assessments prior to next year’s assessment cycle.
