Clean-up day #2
I hope that you all had an enjoyable weekend! Many thanks to those of you who were able to join us for our Spring Clean-Up Day this past Saturday. Due to the holiday weekend, it seems that this was probably not the best time to schedule the clean-up day!
So, if you were unable to help at the pool and tennis facilities this past weekend, you have not completely missed the opportunity. We will have a SECOND CLEAN-UP DAY this Saturday, April 30, beginning at 9:00 a.m. Based on the amount of work still to be done, I am sure some of us will be there throughout the day so come as you are able. The Board of Directors is working hard in a variety of ways to improve the appearance and overall use of the Piedmont Bend recreational facilities and I hope that you can assist in these efforts!
Also, the Piedmont Bend Barracudas will be hosting a Parents Meeting this Sunday, May 1, at 2:00 p.m. at the Pool. Open registration and swimsuit fitting will occur that afternoon until 5:00 p.m.
Remember that the pool will officially open on Saturday, May 7 (we may have an adult’s only get together the prior evening – more details to follow). Be sure to get your Membership dues in soon so you can take full advantage of the improved facilities! The Membership Application can be found here.
Thank you for your support of the PBRA and let me know if you have any questions, concerns or comments.

Spring Clean-Up Day Reminder
A reminder that our Spring Clean Up day is this Saturday, May 1, beginning at 9:00 a.m. Please join us if you are able! If you can bring gloves, some basic tools (hammers, rakes, etc.). We are also in dire need of a chainsaw for the day and a couple people willing to bring lawn mowers.
Also, remember that dues must be paid by June 15 to avoid the $25 late fee. Your dues are needed as soon as possible as our pool season expenses have already begun!
Lastly, we still need volunteers to serve on the following Board committees:
- Social (event planning)
- Property and Grounds
- Risk Management – insurance, investments, etc.
- Home Owners Association research group
- Swim Team
Thanks,
Cliff
Halloween Party, Fall Clean-Up Day, Waste Management
Although the pool season is now over, I do have some special news for our PBRA members:
HALLOWEEN PARTY – Saturday, October 31, 6:00pm
Join your neighbors for a fun Halloween celebration. The party will be held in the tennis court parking lot. Hot dogs and “fixins” will be provided. Please bring a dish, dessert or drink to share. Special thanks to Kelly Wilson for coordinating the party. If you or someone you know would be willing to donate a trailer for hayrides, please let me know!
FALL CLEAN-UP DAY – Saturday, November 14, 9:00am
Our annual Fall Clean-Up day for the pool and tennis courts will be Saturday, November 14, beginning at 9:00 a.m. (people can come later if needed). We have a very full project list this year, so I hope that you will be able to help. More details regarding this will soon follow.
WASTE MANAGEMENT
Waste Management is the “preferred” waste hauler for Piedmont Bend residents. They are contractually obligated to provide all Piedmont Bend residents a monthly rate of $13.00. If you are currently using Waste Management, check your most recent bill to verify that they have continued with this rate. If you would like to begin service with WM, call 404-794-6707 and indicate you are a Piedmont Bend resident.
That’s all for now! Have a safe and Happy Halloween!
