LEADERSHIP
Member experience is created by our staff and our team of employees plays a large part in the success of Forest Highlands and will play an even greater role in helping the community thrive in the coming years. A couple of quick reminders as we head into the Fall/Winter: • Voting for the Board Election is underway and concludes at 1pm on October 15 so please be sure to cast your ballot.The Bylaws require a majority of members to vote (50% +1) for a valid election and as of today (9/27) we have received votes from 52% of the membership. Thank you to those who have fulfilled one of your most important membership responsibilities and voted! Results will be announced via email and on the Member Website once the election has been certified on October 15 and all candidates have been contacted. • Please do not allow your dogs on the Putting Course – this amenity should be treated with the same care and respect as the putting surfaces on the golf courses and is strictly off limits to dogs and all pets as per Rule 2.17. • As cold temperatures will be returning soon, please note the important tips on page 28 for winterizing your home and most importantly your irrigation system. We have a number of fun events planned for you throughout the month of October including the Ponderosa, Oktoberfest, the Fall Festival & Halloween Family Trunk or Treat, the final Wine Dinner, and it’s not too early to begin making reservations for Thanksgiving Dinner To Go as it is only 8 Thursdays away! We look forward to entertaining you and your families throughout the winter and continuing to be your Paradise in the Pines. As this may be my final article as your General Manager, I want to close by expressing my thanks to all who have taken the time to send well-wishes to myself and my husband on our next chapter and life adventure. I appreciate everyone’s support and will cherish the memories of my time at Forest Highlands and the friends I have made. I look forward to continuing to see many of you in the coming weeks and yes, I have started the countdown now… only 11 weeks remain!
May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, may God hold you in the hollow of his hand.
– Irish Blessing
With Utmost Gratitude,
Patty Ashbrook General Manager / COO
