Check out the new fountain and lights in the pond. The old fountain and wiring was damaged. Thanks to Henry Hunter for getting this project completed. As you may know and shown in the picture, there is a no fishing sign in the pond. The failure of the fountain and the lights was mainly due to fish hooks in the cable and somewhat due to age. During maintenance fishing hooks were removed from the rope and electrical wires many times. If you see some fishing, take their picture and send to GNO. The electrical wires and ropes move around in the floor of the pond. Therefore, no area around the pond can be utilized for fishing. The new fountain and lights are paid out from your homeowner assessment so help the association by supporting “NO...

One of the older playsets was in need of repair. After getting prices to fix, we decided to purchase a new playset. The new one is a little bigger than the one we replaced. Hopefully all of the young children will enjoy it. The two newer playsets are designed for children 12 years and younger. The older playset that is concreted in is for use by others.

ANNOUNCING: The creation of a Little Free Library for the River Oaks Neighborhood. Phase one will focus on children’s books and young/teen readers.  Our free library is now open. The idea is simple – A Little Free Library is a collection of family friendly books that may be shared at no cost. Please feel free to take a book and read for as long as you like. You may then return it for another. You may also leave (donate) a book that you think other neighbors would enjoy. Please know that any donated book cannot be tracked down or returned. This service is free and designed to encourage reading among friends. A few words of thanks – Sonja Newman donated the first (home) structure. Nia Smith (age 14) painted it in English woodlands cottage style. Shelley and Butler Ball worked to install it at Clubhouse/Pool right next to the announcement board. Theresa Currie sponsored our Little Free Library membership and serves as the...
