LEADERSHIP

Our management team and department heads are hard at work on the Association’s three-year financial projection. Future needs both operationally and for future capital expenditures will be reviewed by the Finance Committee and presented to the Board at the August board meeting. Year-End forecasts also are in process. Operating trends are being analyzed to identify potential significant budget variances and project how closely the operation will meet our 2023 expectations. Real Estate closings through the end of June generated 16 NOCC fees and we currently are on track to meet the budgeted number of 30 NOCC fees for 2023. We are asking everyone to use common sense and to please practice the concept of “Pride of Ownership” of your club, golf courses, fellow members, and our community. The concept of “Pride of Ownership” means that each one of us takes personal care and responsibility for our community and our amenities. This includes: • being courteous and aware of the permitted times for using the golf courses other than for golf (generally before 7:00am and after 7:00pm), • being responsible for keeping dogs leashed and restrained at all times. • picking up your pet droppings, • abiding by the community speed limits, fully stopping at Stop signs, and not permitting children under the age of 16 or who are unlicensed to operate any motorized or electric vehicle, including electric scooters, mopeds and e-bicycles.

Patty Ashbrook, General Manager / COO Dirck Iacobelli, Board President

I begin with congratulations to Joe Gordon on his promotion to Forest Highlands Director of Security. Joe has served our community for eight years, most recently as Assistant Director of Security. The tremendous start to our 35th season continued into June. Signature golf events including the Couples Invitational, Denise Martinez, Top Gun Shootout and Member-Member tournaments were all very successful. Because of increased member demand for the Ponderosa and Men’s Highlander invitational tournaments, the Board approved expanding the field for the Ponderosa to 120 teams at the June meeting. The Taste of Forest Highlands was well received by 520 attendees who purchased more than 700 cases of wine. We have a very full schedule of events planned for the upcoming long holiday weekend and look forward to a multi-day celebration with the Independence Day parade and BBQ on Sunday July 2nd followed by a Backyard BBQ event on Tuesday July 4th The new Pickleball facility opened for play on June 19th. An official Grand Opening is scheduled for July 9 at 9am and will feature a ribbon cutting and exhibition match. This is the first new amenity since the Meadow clubhouse and golf course in 1998. Additionally, the Board has approved the Ad Hoc Tennis Committee recommendation to proceed with the construction of the new tennis building scheduled to start this October. In summary 76 bids were requested from 30 trade subcontractors, 58 were received, 2 are awaiting and 16 declined to bid. This competitive and thorough bidding process provides assurance that we are obtaining the best possible pricing for this project and reflects the Board's diligence in the review and contract approval process. The overall project cost was approved for $1.8M consisting of the Wespac bid of $1,544,981 plus an additional $225K for landscaping, court resurfacing, concrete patio repairs, furniture, fixtures and equipment.

LEADERSHIP

We have experienced two dog bite incidents in the last week, one from a dog that escaped a fenced enclosure and another from a dog that pulled away from the child that was walking the pet on a leash. While neither of these incidents resulted from a failure to follow our Rules, they do emphasize the importance of being diligent and aware of your pets to avoid the anguish and heartache experienced by all parties involved, both the victims and the pet owners. As we approach the beginning of monsoon season, please take a moment to refresh your knowledge on what to do when the Club Alert Sirens go off, and what it means when a Red Flag Warning is issued. It is the personal responsibility of all members to be vigilant and know what to do when lightning is near. Please remember that the rain shelters on the golf courses are not designed to be lightning shelters. Information on what a Red Flag Warning is and the restrictions that go into place during one can be found in this VIP on page 38 . In addition to the restrictions imposed during a Red Flag Warning, the Firewise Committee and Board recommend that all members consider a Red Flag Day as a signal to take the following precautions and actions around your home: (1) remove any combustible or flammable materials such as pine needles or leaves from gutters, your roof or in eaves; (2) remove any combustible or flammable materials from the ground, under and on decks, and on your porch; and (3) trim any dead or dying plants, shrubs, or trees. Through continued vigilance and by taking “Pride of Ownership” we can all take the steps necessary to assist in protecting our community from the threat of wildfire. Please be aware of the current Stage 1 fire restrictions (looking forward to the monsoons) and have a safe and festive Fourth of July. Dirck Iacobelli Sincerely; Dirck Iacobelli Board President

CONGRATULATIONS TO JOE GORDON ON HIS PROMOTION TO DIRECTOR OF SECURITY

After an extensive search and evaluation of several qualified candidates, we are very pleased to announce the promotion of Joe Gordon as our new Director of Security. The Search Team unanimously agreed that Joe brings the knowledge and experience necessary to fill the position and he has the advantage of already being familiar with the community, membership, other departments, and the processes and procedures of the security operation. Joe was born in Virginia and at a youthful age his family sought warmer weather and moved to Arizona. Joe grew up in Mesa and directly after High School enlisted in the United States Air Force. He was a Security Forces member for 14+ years reaching the rank of Technical Sargent before being honorably discharged and separating in 2011. Joe was able to travel the world during his career and during those years Joe was responsible for the security of everything from nuclear weapons to managing the USAF Inmate Management branch and Victim Witness Assistance Program. After Joe’s 5 deployments and a combat tour in Iraq, it was decided to seek out a new career. After separating from the USAF, Joe became a Freight Conductor with Union Pacific Railroad and moved freight across Southwestern parts of Texas and to the U.S./Mexico border. During this time Joe met his now wife Inez and after 4 years working with the Railroad in San Antonio, Texas they decided to relocate to Flagstaff, Arizona in 2015. In September of 2015 Joe was able to go back to his Security roots when hired as a Safety & Compliance Officer at Forest Highlands and in 2017, Joe was promoted to Operations/Shift Supervisor. Later that year he applied for and was offered the new position of Assistant Director of Security. Joe is looking forward to a new chapter in his tenure at Forest Highlands as Director of Security and excited for what the future will bring. During their time away from Forest Highlands Joe and his wife enjoy their two dogs Liberty and Letty, all things outdoors, traveling for Baseball games, gatherings with family and friends and supporting local veteran organizations.

Association Rule 1.0 requires that every Member must be mindful that her or his behavior toward employees and each other must be respectful and appropriate at all times. Members shall use appropriate language at all times. No foul, vulgar, threatening or demeaning language will be tolerated on the Association property or directed at any other Member or guest or any Association employee. Members are responsible for the actions of their family and guests and will be held accountable for Rule and/or CC&R violations. Over the past month, there have been several instances of behavior that is unbecoming of our membership in their interactions with other members and with our employees. Each month we will highlight specific Forest Highlands Association Rules as a friendly reminder to all members, particularly when it comes to providing a safe, supportive and happy environment for members, family, guests and our employees.

This requirement applies to UTV’s/NEV’s/ GEM cars, and all similar vehicles.

FOUNDATION

Forest Highlands Foundation

Ethan Braunstein MD, Past Chair, Forest Highlands Foundation Board

Your Foundation is now in the midst of its busiest time of the year. A successful Denise Martinez Tournament was organized by Vickie Selzer and her hard-working team, and we are looking forward to entertaining our donors at the thank you event on July 8. This event will give our donors a chance to meet some of the directors of groups we support and to find out more about how the contributions are being put to good use. Our annual appeal has begun, and our grant committee is reviewing applications and interviewing spokespeople for all the organizations that have applied. We have divided our committee into subcommittees reviewing grants in health care, social services, youth, and education. We will then prioritize funding decisions, and along with other local foundations we will fund all the grants applications that we think are worthy. We’ll have some of the results for you next month, and of course there will be a complete account in the annual report. We recently had the opportunity to visit Housing Solutions/ Sharon Manor (HSNA) to get up to date about recent developments there. As I’ve mentioned in the past, HSNA provides housing and social services for up to two years to victims of domestic abuse. Recently we helped HSNA to acquire an old motel on Route 66, renamed Jojo’s Place. Our initial seed money of $50000 led to government funding of the remainder of the 6-million-dollar project through use of unspent COVID funds. This facility of 44 units will

provide additional housing so that the capacity of HSNA will be substantially increased. Ultimately the goal will be to provide more permanent housing, perhaps in a stepped arrangement, so that families in the current facility, Sharon Manor, will have a place to settle for the longer term while new clients can move into Sharon Manor. One of the things we look for in all our grant funding is synergy between local institutions. In the case of HSNA, case management at Jojo’s place will be outsourced to Catholic Charities, a group with enormous expertise in this area. Many of the referrals to HSNA come through the “Front Door,” a collaborative plan among many of the human services institutions we fund, housed at Catholic Charities and Flagstaff Shelter Services, in which clients are referred immediately to the appropriate agencies without having to try to find the suitable services on their own. This is just one example of how many of the local organizations work cooperatively.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT

As always, we thank you for helping to make Flagstaff a better place to live for all of us.

COURSE CLOSURES In recent years, the Canyon Golf Course has slipped from its prestigious position among the top 100 best courses in America, as recognized by Golf Digest. Presently, it stands at number 121, falling just outside the coveted first 100. Determined to reclaim its former glory and establish itself as the premier golfing destination in the state, the Canyon's maintenance team has devised a proactive plan. To ensure that the courses attain the highest standards of excellence, they will be implementing a monthly closure of one day for each course. During these closures, the maintenance team will diligently carry out meticulous detail work that cannot be accomplished during regular maintenance days. This dedicated approach aims to elevate the overall condition of the courses, enhancing the golfing experience and ultimately propelling the Canyon Golf Course back into the esteemed top 100 list as well as the Meadow. Canyon Closures: July 25, August 8, September 12 and October 10. Meadow Closures: July 19, August 16, September 6 and October 11
