The Social Committee recently met and the following activities are planned for the near future:

End of Summer Party on September 19th from 5-8pm. We will have corn hole and bocce for all interested residents followed by subs, sides, and rolled ice cream sundaes (catered by “Where’s the Scoop?” from Canton)

Those attending will bring beverage of choice, we will provide bottled water. Please bring folding chairs for game watching or participating!

The cost will be $12 per person to be collected at the clubhouse on Wednesday, September 9th from 4-6pm.

Introductory Mahjong to be demonstrated on September 10th at 2pm. Sign-up will be needed as it is topped at 8 individuals. Mahjong will be taught by Joan Shuster and Emilee Rosenbaum. Keep an eye out on Facebook for sign-up info

The Ladies Luncheon held in August was quite a hit so we are planning one for October 21st. Probable location is Seed Kitchen and Bar in Marietta. More news to follow…

While bocce has been very popular during the summer months, we will be pausing it when we fall back for the winter months. In its place we will be featuring monthly Trivia, hosted by Wayne Bratten! Our first Trivia will be held in clubhouse on Tuesday, October 27 from 6:30 - 8:30pm

Plans for a Holiday Party are in the works . Once the date and plans are finalized we will notify you!

Thanks to all committee members who contribute ideas and continue to be involved in our community!

Starting in 2027 …

The club meetings will remain on the 3rd Wednesday of the every month with the exception of the summer months (June, July, August)

Reserve December for a party or special event decided upon by the group

Volunteers will lead the book club discussion (eight in total). The person will choose the book to be read and announce it to the club two months ahead of time. The leader will also be responsible for getting members to bring refreshments on their scheduled date.

Please note that all are welcomed to join!

Big thank you to Danny Thompson for the work he did on the clubhouse as well as staining the fence behind the clubhouse.

Reminder to all residents to have your cooling/heating and water heater checked. One of our residents had a slow leak in water heater that went undetected and now has black mold which is being remediated.

Now let’s note some of the great things going on at Presley Lake:

• Water meter installed at entrance to irrigate front beds and sod

• Irrigation of entrance installed and inspected

• Entrance lighting installed - super nice improvement

• Bray Street erosion correction installation is complete, and all funds collected from homeowners - sidewalk and sod repairs completed

• Acknowledgement that VAPL HOA changed law firms - letter of engagement resides with JYL Legal - Miye Johnson & Johnson Lau

• O’Dwyer has released ownership and control of HOA to VAPL HOA. We have received legal overview and suggestions for the directors to consider from our legal advisors - no urgency

• We replaced pool maintenance companies due to lack of proof of insurance - pool open!

• Thanks to Cindy Smith for installing clubhouse blinds and getting more game room lights installed!

• Thanks to Wayne Bratten for pressure washing the pool deck area so we could be ready to open!
