By Leave a Comment

Just a reminder that our Fall Cleanup Day at the Pool and Tennis Courts is this Saturday, November 14, beginning at 9:00 a.m. Please join us, as able, to address our Fall project list.

We have most of the tools and supplies needed to address the various projects, however, we do need the following items:
· Shovel
· Tree trimmer
· Wheel barrow
· Hammer
· Small wood screws
· 2 chain saws
· Cordless drill
· Cordless screwdriver
· Step ladder
· 2 line trimmers (weed eaters)
· Extra extension cords if the chain saws and/or line trimmers are electric

Thank you in advance for your willingness to help and to give freely of your time. The improvements to the recreation area are important and will ultimately benefit all of us.

Thanks,

DO YOU THINK YOU HAVE A GREAT CHILI RECIPE?
We are still accepting entries into the competition! As noted, each category winner will receive an award, and, even better, will have bragging rights for an entire year! If you would like to submit a chili for the cook-off, please contact Cliff Pepper. The deadline for entry has been extended to Friday, September 25. Each participant will be provided the rules of the competition upon entry, but the main points are as follows:

  • The chili cannot be store bought!
  • Please provide a minimum of 6-8 quarts of chili (this is about the size of a standard Crock Pot or slow cooker). This will assure that we have enough chili for everyone.
  • Chili must be at the pool by 12:00 p.m.
  • You can enter more than one chili recipe
  • There are no entry fees to participate!

Please contact Cliff via email cpepper@campbellstone.org or by phone, 404.384.5794, if you would like to enter the competition!

Adult Casino Night

By Leave a Comment

Are you feeling lucky? Well, are you?

If so, please plan on coming to our Adults Only “Casino Night” at the pool this Saturday, August 8, beginning at 6:00 p.m.! Now, I don’t want to give the wrong impression – we will not have professional card dealers dressed in tuxedos. But we will have a few gaming tables set up and some other fun games and activities – volleyball, belly flop contest, whatever else Mary Boland comes up with . . . It is guaranteed to be a fun event!

Come with a cooler of your favorite beverage and, if you like, an entrée for you and your guests. We will have the grills fired up and you can cook to your heart’s delight! Also, bring a dish to share – the usual routine, bring a side dish if your last name starts with A – M; bring a dessert or something sweet if your last name starts with N – Z. We will provide plates, plastic ware, napkins, etc.

Good times, good food, good music, good drink – sitting by the pool with your friends and neighbors! What else could make the evening even better?

NO KIDS!!

Also, feel free to bring guests! Just remember the $2 guest fee.

I look forward to seeing you Saturday night. Even if you are not feeling lucky.

P.S. – The weather on Saturday is supposed to be PERFECT!
