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
