Greenfield Monument Damage
The Greenfield monument was damaged in a vehicle accident at 1:20pmon Saturday April 27th.  We are awaiting the police report, confirming insurance coverage and bidding to replace the monument.  Please be patient as this will not be a simple job, there is extensive damage and this will require some time to resolve. 
The Watering Hole Events
Stinging and Burning Nettle Weed Control
Ongoing control of weeds will be occurring through Spring on the trails. Stinging and Burning Nettle is one of the prevalent weeds being battled at this time by our trail crews. Horses and dogs don’t usually eat stinging nettle, however, if they brush up against it while walking or lie down or roll on the plant, glassy hairs from the plant’s leaves and stems cause a skin reaction and an intensely painful stinging sensation that may last 24 hours or more. The standard practice for our trail crews is to weed whip the taller nettles to reduce the height of the plant and spot spray the base of the weeds and adjacent remaining weeds to limit regrowth.
Equines and pets using trails should not be permitted to eat the stinging nettle or grasses or weeds in close proximity to them. Enjoy your time on the trail and the beautiful weather.

Pickleball Court Fence Divider Project
Pickleball court divider fencing will be installed next week.  The new fencing and gates will allow each court to have players in their own space without interference and balls rolling onto courts during play.  Work is scheduled to begin on  Monday, April 15th and be completed by Friday. Work will be done in two phases allowing 4 courts to be open for play throughout the week.  Homeowners who do not have pickleball memberships may play 11:30-3:00 pm but no guest passes will be issued next week due to limited courts.  For more information, please contact the Association office at 949-425-1477.
