Plan Your Month November

Wednesday, November 1, 2023

LMOA staff wishes you a warm and cozy holiday season. This update will help you plan for time with your neighbors. If you are interested in clubs and committee meetings, please log into lmoa.org and click on the calendar in the brown toolbar. Happy Planning!

November 1 Bathroom Winterization: Due to the incoming cold weather, our Facilities and Operations Director, Tracy Chandler, decided to close beach bathrooms a week early. Our Maintenance Team has winterized the restrooms at Beach 2, 3, and 4. This prevents damage caused by frozen pipes and saves on costs. Ashlawn Playground, Bunker Park, Lafayette Playground, Beach 5, and the Marina will have facilities available throughout the winter. Please take this into account when you are using the beaches and parks. Finally, just a friendly reminder that pets are not allowed in our parks, and Beaches 2 and 5 can be used for pets starting December 1.

November 1 & 9 Budget Meetings: In a working session, our Financial Director Mike Warner will present a 2024 Budget proposal to the Board on November 1 and 9 in the Fairway Clubhouse at 6 PM. The Board of Directors will consider and discuss the proposal before approval at the November Board Meeting. LMOA Members are welcome to attend. Both meetings will be recorded and broadcast/streamed live. Watch on Comcast channel 977 or via our YouTube channel.

November 10 LMOA Administrative Offices CLOSED: LMOA staff will observe Veterans’ Day on Friday, November 10. The Administrative Offices will be closed, and there will be no GM Corner that week.

November 11 Beach Bonfire: Bring a camping chair to the Main Beach from 4 - 7:30 PM on Saturday, November 11, and enjoy a cozy evening with your neighbors. Hop on a free hayride and play games from 4 - 5 PM. Purchase food and a hot drink while listening to the Outliers play live from 5 - 6:30 PM. There will be a food truck, and we will sell beer, wine, and (alcoholic and nonalcoholic) hot chocolate and apple cider from the Shark Tank. This is a family-friendly event, and everyone is welcome to roast marshmallows (toast if you are from the North) for a complimentary s'more provided to you by the Young Residents and Families Committee from 4:30-6:30 PM.
