overgrowth.
I want to thank this Board and DH Management for allowing me to uncover
the beauty of our community. Many
Treasures have been found along the way.
Huge boulders that were put in place years ago were covered over by
neglect and overgrowth. Memorial plaques
discovered – one dated back to 1995 was found on a giant boulder under a
Japanese Maple located at #10 T-box area.
Mike Wynn recommends the purchase / lease of an appropriate lawn mower
for the Club House. Eddie’s crew has
been using a “rough mower”. Mike has
been using his private lawn mower for the Club House and Memorial Gardens. A proper mower is needed to reach the hill
side areas.
Jerry Wright recommends maintaining the drainage ditches along the
road-ways to protect the roads from water seeping under the edges – causing
erosion.
Respectfully submitted,
Diane Porterfield, Board Liaison
