2011 budget Approved

The 2011 budget for the Homeowner's Association was presented by Treasurer, Jared Weed at the November 16th board meeting.

The budget approval meeting was held on December 15th and the budget was passed.

Bear-Strewn Garbage

Our thanks to the volunteers who have worked hard to pick up the unsightly garbage strewn about by the bears. Jesse Hanson, Matthew Rowley and Sue Swanson cleared out the area around the retaining pond at the south end of Mt. Si Cottages on December 18th in the sleet and rain.

On January 22nd a little sunshine inspired Chris and Katie Starkey to attack the garbage in the wetland on our western border. They filled 5 garbage cans with refuse. Chris donated the use of his truck to haul all the garbage to the dumping station in North Bend.

There is still bear-garbage at the south end of the wetland near the field. We appreciate the help of all volunteers in this effort. Eliminating the garbage will eliminate the rats that have been having garbage for lunch and dinner and chewing on the wires of our parked cars for dessert.
