Good afternoon,


I hope everyone had an enjoyable Memorial Day weekend. The weather was great and it was great seeing so many members and guests enjoying the beaches, lake, campground, pool, parks, Bingo and the grand opening of the Veterans Memorial.


Lodge Concession – In my May Manager’s report, I noted that we did not have anyone interested in operating the Lodge Concession. I spoke too soon. Francisco Lopez and his wife Laura signed the lease late last week and they will be operating the concession under the name, “Empanada’s By the Lake”. They’ll be selling hot dogs, hamburgers, snacks, soft drinks and of course, Empanadas. The Lodge Concession is on the back side of the lodge facing beach #1. Their current schedule includes being open Wednesdays through Sunday from 9:00am to 3:00pm. Join me in supporting this business venture so we can all enjoy a very local eating option. Good luck to Laura and Francisco!


Help Wanted – Now seeking an individual with supervisory experience who likes to work with people and enjoys the outdoors to assist our Lifeguard Supervisor with the Lifeguard staff. This is a very important seasonal position which will require 10-25 hours per week and includes weekends. If you’d like more information regarding this position, simply reply to this email.


Swimming Pool Picnic Area – Last fall Brian Bandoli, with help from members of our Operations staff built a new patio just outside the fence next to the pool. It’s a beautiful improvement which will serve the Community for years to come. It’s also the only area at the swimming pool where food is allowed. The State of Illinois and the Winnebago Health Department does not allow food to be served or consumed in the pool area. This law/rule has been loosely enforced in the past because up until now, we didn’t have an adequate picnic area. Please note that no food or snacks are to be consumed in the swimming pool area. Instead, use the new patio.


Hoping all have a safe and enjoyable weekend!


Mike
