Quick Links – Board Meetings 2025

–> The Sport Court committee is offering “buy a block” fundraising. There are large limestone blocks being purchased for a retaining wall to go at the north corner of the new pickleball/basketball court. Funds raised from this will go towards the retaining wall blocks, and any funds raised in excess will go towards other site work costs of the sport court. Donors will be recognized via a sign. You may get your donations for “buy a block” to a Board member, Venmo, or using the UP Mailbox.
