We wanted to provide another reminder that the Fitness Center remains temporarily closed while renovation work continues.
The project is focused on addressing the lack of insulation within the Fitness Center walls and requires remodeling work to be completed before the facility can safely reopen.
We appreciate everyone’s continued patience while this important work is underway. At this time, the Fitness Center is expected to reopen no later than Monday, October 19th.
Should the work be completed ahead of schedule, we will be sure to let residents know as soon as the Fitness Center is ready to reopen.
Thank you for your understanding and patience as we work to improve the facility!
| | Please note: The results of this survey will not determine whether The Marketplace returns. The Marketplace is coming back! Instead, your feedback will help us identify opportunities for improvement and better position the Marketplace for long-term success. | | |
Marketplace Survey
We’re excited to share that The Marketplace will be returning to The Groves! Our team is currently meeting with potential marketplace operators to find the right partner for our community. While we don’t have an exact return date yet, our goal is to have The Marketplace back no later than January.
We want your feedback! This survey will help us learn what residents enjoyed in the past, what could be improved, and what you’d like to see moving forward, including preferred days, frequency, vendors, and products.
Please complete the survey by Sunday, October 4th at 11:59 PM.
| | Please Note: Completing this survey is an expression of interest only and does not constitute an official vendor application, guarantee participation, reserve a vendor space, or confirm acceptance into The Marketplace. Final vendor requirements, fees, schedules, availability, approval processes, and participation guidelines have not yet been determined and may be established by the selected Marketplace operator. | | |
Vendor Interest Form
As we prepare to bring The Marketplace back to the community, we would love to hear from residents interested in participating as vendors!
Our goal is to create opportunities for resident owned businesses, makers, bakers, and entrepreneurs to showcase their products and connect with their neighbors.
If you are interested in becoming a vendor, please complete this survey and provide information about yourself, your business, and the products or services you offer. Your responses will help us better understand resident vendor interest and create an initial list to reference once a Marketplace operator has been selected.
Thank you for your interest in being part of The Marketplace!

The safety of our residents is always a top priority. Please take a few moments to review these important reminders to help keep our community safe.
Help Prevent Theft
- Always lock your vehicle, even if you are only away for a few minutes.
- Do not leave valuables or items that appear valuable visible inside your vehicle.
- Keep garage doors closed whenever they are unattended, even for a short period of time.
- Lock side gates to help secure your property.
E-Bikes vs. Dirt Bikes
Please remember that only bicycles equipped with functional pedals are considered e-bikes.
- Vehicles without pedals are classified as dirt bikes, regardless of whether they have foot pegs.
- Dirt bikes are not permitted on community roadways, sidewalks, hiking trails, or other common areas.
- Dirt bikes may only be operated on private property or at designated riding areas.
ATV Reminder
ATVs are not permitted on community roads, sidewalks, trails, or other common areas.
Golf Cart Safety
If you operate a golf cart on public roadways, please ensure it meets all legal requirements.
- Golf carts must display the required registration decal.
- A safety orange or reflective slow-moving vehicle triangle must be displayed on the rear of the golf cart.
- Drivers must possess a valid state-issued driver's license.
- Children should never operate a golf cart on public roadways.
Follow the Rules of the Road
When operating a bicycle, golf cart, or other permitted vehicle on public roadways, you must obey all traffic laws, including:
- Stopping at stop signs and red lights.
- Yielding the right-of-way when required.
- Using proper hand signals when turning.
Failure to follow traffic laws may result in the operator being found at fault in the event of an accident.
Crosswalk Safety
Before entering a crosswalk, make sure the driver of any approaching vehicle has seen you. Establish eye contact whenever possible before crossing, as drivers may be looking in another direction and may not notice pedestrians until it is too late.
Thank you for doing your part to help keep The Groves a safe place for everyone!

As The Groves continues to grow, we are consistently exploring new opportunities to enhance resident life through meaningful programs, including clubs and groups that support an active, connected, and engaging lifestyle. Our goal is to create spaces where residents can come together, build relationships, and enjoy shared interests within the community.
Below is a current list of community clubs and groups that are open to all residents. We encourage everyone to explore these opportunities and participate in activities that align with their interests.
If you do not see a club or group that fits your interests but would like to help start one, we welcome new ideas and resident involvement. Please email Taylor, our Lifestyle Associate, to learn more about how to create a new club or group and bring your idea to life within the community!

All upcoming Groves Marketplace dates have been canceled until further notice.
We would like to clarify that the conclusion of The Groves Marketplace was not the result of a decision by the market operator to consolidate or pursue other growth opportunities. The Groves terminated its relationship with the operator following an incident involving unauthorized access to a community amenity and conduct that was inconsistent with established community policies, expectations and standards.
While we will not be providing additional details regarding the incident, we want our residents to understand that the decision to terminate the relationship was taken seriously in order to uphold the policies and standards established for our community.
We understand that The Groves Marketplace has been enjoyed by many of our residents, and we appreciate your understanding as we make this adjustment.
Our team will be evaluating opportunities to bring a similar marketplace experience back to The Groves in the future. Should additional information or future marketplace dates become available, we will be sure to share those updates with the community.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support of The Groves community.
