Some Courtesy Reminders –
Please watch your speed while driving through the neighborhood. School will be out in a few short days, and children will be playing outside more frequently now. Let’s keep it safe for all.
All pet owners: please keep an eye on your pets. If they are outside without being on a leash or a tie-up, please make sure they remain in your yard.
Your neighbors thank you in advance for your cooperation!
