CIHA MEETING NOTES
JUNE 14, 2010 7:00 PM

Members present: Maureen Thomas, Craig Leonard, Kelly House, Judy Paulson, Sherry Woodbeck, Bill Fitzgerald, Richard Brooks, Shelly Brooks, Matt Slicker, Sharon Jacob, Michael Marcum, Linda Tolman and Renee Brodie.

FIREWORKS
Fireworks are scheduled for Friday July 2 with a rain date of July 10. We are still in need of donations. As of the date of this newsletter, we have raised almost $9000 of the $11,000 needed. Richard Brooks will be going door to door during the next two weeks. If you haven’t donated yet, please send a check to Dave Weber, or give it to Richard when he stops by.

Parking: We will be taping off the park again for extra vehicle parking to alleviate some of the parking concerns we have had in the past. Please ask your guests to park on one side of the street (across from the mailboxes) and pull off of the road on to the grassy county right of way to allow traffic to pass in and out of the subdivision.

TREASURER’S REPORT
As of June 14, 106 members have paid dues. A copy of the current financial report is attached.

BOTTLE & CAN DRIVE
We raised almost $500 with our Bottle & Can Drive at the park. Thanks to Sherry Woodbeck for the great idea. Thanks also to Kelly House, Renee Brodie, Linda Tolman, Maureen Thomas & Sherry Woodbeck for doing the dirty work! We are considering holding another one after July 4th (with the other side of the lake) to start the fund for next year’s fireworks. Contact Sherry Woodbeck or Renee Brodie to volunteer.

SPRADER'S FUNDRAISER
The Sprader’s on the Lake fundraiser was a HUGE success despite the rainy weather. $1025 was raised for the fireworks and everyone had a great time with friends and neighbors. Thanks to Matt Sprader, Patti Page, Marv & Denise Younger and Pat & Tom Schwind for sponsoring the event again this year.

PARK CLEAN-UP
Park Clean-up was May 1. In addition to the usual clean up of branches, weeds and debris; the fence was painted and repaired. We still have a pile of branches to burn and a portion of the fence still needs painting. If you’d like to help, contact cedarislandhoa@hotmail.com.

Thanks to this year’s volunteers: Dave Weber, Craig Leonard, Chuck & Kelly House, Maureen Thomas, Renee Brodie, Jeremy Macbeth, Bill Fitzgerald and John Macbeth

BOAT LAUNCH
The township still has not drafted the ordinance to monitor the boat launch despite our suggestions to overcome funding issues. Maureen plans to talk to Township officials and/or the Township legal counsel to try to get this moving.

PROGRESSIVE DINNER
This year’s progressive dinner will be July 31(the date in the directory is incorrect). Two more host homes are needed. Contact Shelly & Richard Brooks to host or sign up to attend.

LADIES WINE TASTING
We are looking for volunteers for the ladies wine tasting. We need one volunteer to hostess the party. The hostess gets to pick the date but does not need to supply food or drink. We are also looking for a coordinator to organize the menu. Email cedarislandhoa@hotmail.com if you are interested in hosting or organizing.

GOOSE ROUND-UP
John Morawski and Maureen Thomas attended the DNRE class and handled the nest removal in May. The round up took place last Saturday. The names of the volunteers and number of geese removed were not available at the time of printing and will be reported in the next newsletter.
