July Update

Hello all,

I hope you're doing well and enjoying the summer weather! Just a few updates for this month for Warner Creek:

Our new board met and voted on the following board positions:

Bob - President Anh - Vice President Colleen - Treasurer Chris - Secretary John - ABR Chair Committees:

Liz - Chair of welcome committee

Bob - Chair of parks committee

Megan - Chair of activities committee

If you'd like to volunteer for a committee, for now you can send me an email at secretary@warnercreek.org. We're looking into website improvements so that we can have a more seamless sign-up process, but for now you can email me. Food trucks are back - thanks Megan for the work on this! You can also visit https://www.warnercreek.org/events to see more info.

Work has also started on a community survey - if you have any ideas or feedback regarding what to include on a survey, please send me an email! As this is a survey designed to help guide the board in the direction the community wants to go in, feedback on the survey itself would be much appreciated.

Regarding the frequency of emails - the plan is to only send out emails for major updates. For more minor updates, such as monthly meeting minutes or committee updates, warnercreek.org/blog will be the place to look. Individual board members may also use other platforms such as Facebook to communicate unofficially. For official communication, the Compass portal, the website, email, and physical mail may all be utilized.

Thanks,

Chris
