PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

2016 ASSESSMENTAt the September meeting, the Board looked over our 2015

expenses to date and began budgeting for 2016. It has been 12 years since there was any change in the assessment for the community. I and the rest of the Board have worked very hard to keep our expenses down over this time period. Unfortunately, in looking over our costs which have been climbing over those 12 years, the Board felt it was necessary to increase the 2016 Assessment to $488. This $40 increase will help cover costs from our vendors and for projected community repairs and improvements.

You should expect to receive your Assessment from Randall Management in November. And don’t forget, you can now pay on-line…and if you use an e-check, there is no additional cost!!! All assessments not received within 30 days of the January 1st due date will result in late fees.

FALL COMMUNITY GARAGE SALE Don’t forget the Fall Community Garage Sale has moved from

September to October. To avoid the heat in early September, the Board decided 3 years ago to schedule the Fall Community Garage Sale for the second weekend in October…October 9-11th this year. And don’t forget each Homeowner may have a garage sale outside of the two hosted by the Community.

WilloW POINTE FALL FESTIVALYou are invited to our Willow Pointe Fall Festival on Sunday,

October 25th from 2 – 4pm in the Willow Pointe Pool Parking Lot. We will have games, food and music. There will be a costume contest for Kids and a costume contest for Pets with $25 gift card going to each winner!

Willow Pointe

1. Porch Lights - a porch light on means fair game for Trick-Or-Treating. If you are not distributing candy or are done for the evening, please turn your lights off. And Trick-Or-Treaters…if you see a porch light off, be respectful and move on to the next illuminated house.

2. Hello? - Knock or ring the bell no more than twice. If the door isn’t answered within a minute despite the porch light being on, assume you’ve gotten one of those folks who didn’t read Tip 1.

3. Frightening limits – If you are the person who wants to jump out of the coffin tucked in the corner of your front porch, please make sure that the age of the ‘victim’ is appropriate. While pee will wash off concrete, you might ruin the night for a dressed up 2 year-old princess.

4. Walking - Stay on sidewalks or pathways. Don’t take short cuts through lawns or flowerbeds.

5. Manners matter - Saying “Trick-or-Treat” before and “Thank You” afterward is a small price for collecting free candy on Halloween.

6. Game over - Don’t Trick-or-Treat after 9pm. Families with children or older people may be in bed after that.

7. Trafficking – Vehicles: drive extra slow and look for kids. Chaperones/Kids: Stay off roads as much as possible.

8. Blinded by the Light - Glow sticks, reflectors, flashlights – all are good to make your kids visible to anyone who fails at Tip 6.

9. Flame off!! - Jack-o-lanterns/candles set a spooky mood, but open flames near dangling costume sleeves and flammable accessories is dangerous. Consider battery-powered tea lights.

10. Thanks… - If you’re going to give out goodies to Trick-or-Treaters, buy individually wrapped treats. Save special homemade goodies and fresh fruit as presents for the folks you know rather than strangers who are coming to your door Trick-or-Treating.

11. R-E-S-P-E-C-T - Not everyone celebrates the holiday, or celebrates it in the same way you do. We live in a community with diverse beliefs and views. Please show respect as you yourself would want to be respected.

12. Don’t Scare the Little Ones Too Badly! – If you’ve got a really creepy costume to answer the door, or you decorate your house from sidewalk to front porch in graveyard chic – remember that what can be delightfully frightening to older kids and adults can terrify toddlers and young kids. Before jumping out of bushes, screaming when you open doors or leaping out of fake coffins at Trick-or-Treaters, take a quick glance to make sure they’re of an appropriate age-group to enjoy such a scare. Save the best frights for those who can really appreciate them. You’ll have more fun, and the parents of the little kids will be grateful. Having to take home a hysterical Trick-or-Treater who has been scared witless on their first time out is no fun for anyone.
