Dear Homeowners ... During a recent walk-through by your Board members, we noticed that a number of homeowners actively use gas or charcoal grills or smokers on their decks or in very close proximity to their trailer, deck, or shed. Per the Fire Marshall (and our Rules & Regulations), grills/smokers should not be used on a deck or on the ground within 5 feet of an overhang or building as this does present a potential fire hazard should the grill flare up or ignite grease accumulated inside or in the grease trap. The Fire Marshall typically inspects our property at the very beginning of the season and hasn't cited the Association or individual homeowners at this time as Maintenance indicated that some homeowners store grills/smokers on their decks for the winter only. Should the Fire Marshall come into our community for another violation or reason, the Association (and you) could be fined ... but more importantly, we want you to be safe and avoid a potential fire hazard on your property.

 ... for entertaining us with some great music last night. There was even a special guest appearance from Al on the sax and flute! RADIO FICTION will be back again on Saturday, September 23rd (Irish weekend) ... so mark your calendars! Come join your OSC friends and neighbors for a concert by “Radio Fiction” at 7:00pm on Saturday, July 15th outside the Log Cabin Community Center. Bring your own beverages and snacks … and enjoy the music and good company! All are welcome! Volunteers will be needed to set up tables and chairs before the concert … and clean up afterwards. Thanks!  Dear Homeowners -- Not only do wipes wreak havoc with our septic system, GREASE and OIL can irreparably damage our leach fields as it prevents water from seeping (leaching) into the ground. While we can periodically clear the lines leading to the leach field, repairing a leach field can be costly, time-consuming, and prevent use of the septic system during the repair ... if it is even possible. And, we have very few options for relocating a leach field and redirecting the sewer lines to it!!
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE ... DO NOT DUMP GREASE OR OIL DOWN THE DRAIN. Please collect it in a container or wipe it out with a paper towel and place it in the trash. You'll not only help prevent sewer backups, but you will help extend the life of our leach fields. And, of course, please don't flush wipes or anything other than 1-ply toilet paper down the toilet. Note: We also tend to have a large number of emergency calls for sewer backups on weekends in the summer, especially holiday weekends, due to high water usage within our community. The water accumulating in our tanks simply cannot leach out into the ground at the same rate. We do monitor our tanks at least once per month and have the solids pumped out on a regular basis. We have over 11 septic sites containing 33 tanks within our community. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
