Need volunteers for Tuesday's National Night Out

Hi Neighbors!

Wondering if anybody would be able to volunteer (or volunteer their spouses or older kids!) for a half hour (or more) of their time to help out with National Night Out next week?  Below is the link to the sign up genius.  We still have lots of slots to fill.  Thanks so much!

Trying out a new email

Victor Gardens News email is looking a little different.  I'm testing a new, more efficient way of getting the word out to residents.  More info to follow.

See you tonight for root beer floats!

Family Magic Show and Balloon Animals

Monday, July 21st at 6:30 in Arbre Park join Captain Curly for a magic show followed by balloon animal fun!  Highly recommended by the staff and kids at KinderGardens.  Fun for the whole family.

Root Beer Floats Rescheduled

Root beer float night will be held this Wed, July 23rd at the pool house from 6:30-7:30.  Thanks so much to Renee for volunteering!  Please remember to keep your food outside the pool fence.

Pool House Door

Sometime yesterday the pool house was broken into, the door damaged, and the wiring for the keyfob system ripped out.  Community Development is working to have this repaired as soon as possible but until it is repaired none of the keyfobs will work and the pool is inaccessible.  They hope to have it repaired by this weekend.  

Root Beer Floats Canceled Tonight!

Due to the vandalism at the pool house root beer float night tonight is canceled.  Supplies are inaccessible upstairs.  We will reschedule as soon as possible!  Please check the web, facebook and signs for updated information.

Men’s Wedding Ring FOUND:

I received this yesterday….

"Hey Mark, my friend ... found a ring at our big park [Arbre Park] this afternoon. It has E.H. and M.A. engraved on the inside. She assumes it's a grandparents (male) wedding ring based on the date that's engraved inside the ring. I'm sure it's quite a loss for someone!! She asked if I could get the word out to the neighborhood, so you're my guy.  

If the person who claims it can name the date on the inside, she'll return it."

Please email nouvellemegan@gmail.com to claim it.
