It is time for our annual community meeting. This year the meeting is scheduled for November 6^th at 7pm at the Davison Township Hall.

We still need volunteers to run for the board. If you are interested, please let Scott know (contact info above) by November 3^rd.

The light survey was completed and submitted to the Township. The vote was 59 houses in favor of lights and 27 houses opposed. We were unable to reach everyone, despite several attempts. However, a clear majority emerged in favor of the lights.

At the meeting in addition to the election of the new board, we will review the budget for the year and review the list of homes that have not paid their dues.

We look forward to seeing everyone there!
