• 202406 HOA Member, re July 4th, asks: 1) Why can't guests eat on July 4th?; 2) Why are the wristbands being handed out on the morning and not by the office?; 3) What are guests supposed to do while residents eat?

Result: We appreciate the questions - this is a balancing act due to the growth of our wonderful event! In response: 1) The limit of 300 guests is based on fire department regulations, which we exceeded last year and cannot exceed this year. The tickets are reserved first for residents, and if there are leftover/no-show tickets we can then distribute on a first come/first served basis, determined after the registration period ends June 28th - but not to exceed 300. The alternative is to hold the event at the Southside Clubhouse where we can have up to 450 guests, however, the decision was made to hold it at the Northside Clubhouse for 2024. We will take a poll after this event to find out if the community would prefer more tickets and the Southside Clubhouse, or less tickets and the Northside Clubhouse - we're happy to do either! 2) Management prefers to handle as little of the ticketing process as possible, and we concur. We will make this as seamless as possible this year, and next year, the HOA via the Social Committee, intends to manage the entire reservation process. 3) Residents are free to invite guests, who we encourage to enjoy the day with us! Guests can bring their own food and BYOB, or enjoy our professional bar. However, management can (if they choose) stop anyone entering the clubhouse and pool area if the total numbers exceed 300 people. As a community, we have to work within the very reasonable guidelines provided by management and the fire department, and while the HOA's Social Committee is doing the hard work to meet the needs of all residents, last year's numbers do not work at the Northside Clubhouse for the reasons stated above.
