PPWA Special Update: October 7, 2022
It goes without saying that the past week has been trying for all of us. I know that as I write this some of you still don’t have power or internet. Ian tested our patience and preparedness, but all in all I think it fair to say that we are fortunate that things were not worse. There are so many communities, particularly to the south of us where lives, families, homes were changed forever. I am certainly personally grateful for what we have.
Staying informed is most important because this is still a fluid situation and things can change quickly. Please read all HOA communications and Club Management emails carefully for the most updated information.
The Clubhouse will be closed for some time while repairs are being made. This will affect us the most. Activity Leaders need to be creative in finding ways to meet without using the Clubhouse. Meetings and gatherings are the connectivity of our community and we need to be creative, making sure that proper communications are sent out.
I am looking into some meeting spaces in the area that can accommodate the larger group meetings. That information will be available as we get confirmations. Please Note: The New Activity Leader Orientation on October 19th will be held at my home 964 Chickadee Drive. This will be a small hands-on meeting. The PPWA Board Meeting on October 17th and all future Board Meetings, till further notice, will be held at my home 964 Chickadee Drive. I know that many of you are and have been helping neighbors in the clean up effort. Thank you for your genuine care and concern. It is our volunteerism which makes Pelican Pointe such a special community to live in.
I will be communicating with you as new information becomes available. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to me directly.
Respectfully,
Luisa Goldman, PPWA President
