SLOW DOWN

PLEASE SLOW DOWN

The HOA Board reminds EVERYONE driving in and around our neighborhood that it is important to SLOW DOWN, particularly now with everyone being in and around their homes.

Our neighborhood has many small children that are out and about on bikes, trikes, scooters and foot as well as adults who are taking advantage of fresh air at various times of the day.

Do not become distracted or speed. We need no more tragedy in our lives!                                                                                       

Be aware of your surroundings and of others in our tight knit community and SLOW DOWN.

Everyone will appreciate the effort.
