Happy New Year everyone! Hope you enjoyed rest and peaceful new beginnings for 2025.
Board members are often asked, "What do I get for my dues?" And "What does the Board of Directors do?" Here is a partial list of some of the benefits your all-volunteer board has provided.
I hope this list inspires you to thank a board member when you see them at the annual meeting or in the neighborhood! They live here and pay dues like everyone else, plus they volunteer to make Sunday Harbor a safe, clean, welcoming neighborhood for all. Please consider taking a turn on the board this year! Guidance is provided, even if you have never been on a board before. Best wishes to you and your families! A big Thank You to board member Sieneke and her spouse for taking the initiative to pull weeds and add bark chips around the swing and slide set in the Sunday Harbor park! This was a much needed project, completed at no expense to homeowners.
Sunday Harbor Community members and friends gathered for a relaxed afternoon picnic in the park. The Board of Directors provided hot dogs, buns, and beverages. Board president Tim cooked the 'dogs on the outdoor BBQ. Introductions were made by new and long-term residents of the Sunday Harbor Community. Games and activities were provided for the younger bunch, including Croquet, Corn-Hole bean bag toss, and a Treasure hunt with Prizes for all participants. The weather cooperated with partly cloudy, breezy conditions, not too hot. All in all, folks seemed to enjoy the get together. If you missed it, hope you will join us next time!
Sunday Harbor Community board president Tim and community members Shasta & Tess enjoyed a bonfire Friday evening at the community park. After some trash and debris was removed from the fire pit, branches from winter clean up were burned, and then logs were added for a nice evening with some guitar music and singing around the campfire. Please contact Sunday Harbor board if you wish to plan an event at the park. Help us keep it looking nice by taking litter out with you, and cleaning up after pets.
The Sunday Harbor Community Association held their Annual General Meeting on Saturday, May 20th at the Blaine Library. Due to a conflict in schedules with the Blaine Oyster Festival, the turn out was lower than normal and parking was a challenge! However, enough members attended to have a quorum. The members approved the Proposed Annual budget and Fee Schedule. They approved adding a definition of Tiny Homes to the Rules for RVs and Trailers, and they approved a proposal to keep the current Bylaws and stop trying to pass the 2019 Amended Proposed Bylaws, which have failed to get 2/3 of the membership votes needed to pass.
Members elected three new Directors to the board. Welcome! All board members are volunteers, and your neighbors. We appreciate your service! The dead pine tree next to the picnic table shelter was removed by member/owner Luke White. Luke volunteered his services, saving the Association money. Thank you Luke!
Welcome to the Sunday Harbor Community Newsletter. Board members will post periodically to keep members updated on current events and news in the community. 10/7/22 Sunday Harbor Park Shelter Repair
The picnic table cover at our park had a rotten support beam. Board members were concerned that it could collapse. We budgeted our 2022-23 Park Maintenance fund to allow for the repair and then searched for a reasonable, licensed local company to do the work. 3B's Home Repair Blaine was awarded the contract and they completed the repair in 2 days. They recommended replacing the other supports at some time, but for now they are waterproofed. Heidi from 3B's added cross beam supports to the structure for more stability. The final cost was actually slightly LESS than the original bid. Check out the BEFORE and AFTER photos. |
