Weekend News Wrap-up
CHPOA Annual Meeting
The Association annual meeting, held this past Saturday at the St. Marys Middle School auditorium, went smoothly with around 100 people in attendance. The remote listening function unfortunately did not work possibly due to the building's metal frame.

CHPOA President, Paul Gommo presided. Speakers included other members of the CHPOA Interim Board, Michelle Deis, David Cohen, Helen Ownby & Bernie Huber; Joe Gregory, Chairman of the Design Review Board; Buddy Mays, Team Leader-Securitas Security company; Heritage Property Management's Kyle Waidner & Gavin Cobb; and Community Solutions Management's CH on-ground manager, Melodye Pitts.

Questions from the floor and previously sent emails were answered. Afterwards, a well-attended pizza part for owners was held on the property at the Spring House from 6:00 until after 8:00 p.m.

St. Marys River Celebration and Cleanup
The St. Marys River Cleanup was a great success. Bill Bruce, who coordinated participation by Cumberland Harbour's owners, reported, "There was a great turnout and a generous spirit from the Cumberland Harbour participants, and many, many, many bags of trash and recyclables were collected. I look forward to our participating in this event again next year, although perhaps with fewer boats and more shore-based activity."

Brian Timberlake suggested next year CH participants hold their own cookout here on the property, rather than drive or boat to White Oak for lunch. Apparently, by the time several CH participants arrived at White Oak for lunch, there was no food left.
