Dear Neighbors, 
June was quite a month for us here at Rolling Meadows. Your Board chose Jim DeTemple to be our interim President to serve out the balance of Steve Hyle’s term. 

Our road project was completed on portions of Dartmouth Drive and Gainsborough Drive - a cost-free improvement to our HOA funded by the settlement of litigation we filed against the concrete company which caused the damage we had repaired.

Our members began enjoying our pool which opened for the season on the Memorial Day weekend. 

Be sure to check the tab on our website to review ourpool rules. The pool is open to all HOA members in good standing who are current of their dues.  We need volunteers to help out at the pool. Please sign up by contacting Jim. His contact information is below.

We have a Card Club that meets in the Clubhouse every first Wednesday of each month between 12:00 noon and 6:00 PM.  If interested contact Carol Ann Lehmann @ 917-670-5512.  [No card sharks please.]

We have the Saltwater Fly Anglers of Delaware Club that meets in the Clubhouse every second Wednesday of each month between February and December from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM.  If interested contact Ron Smith @ 302-448-6100.

We have an Exercise Group that meets in the Clubhouse every Monday, Wednesday and Friday between 8:00 AM and 10:00 AM.  If interested contact Joan Bendfeldt @ 302-344-6939.

The Clubhouse is available to RENT to all HOA Members, in good standing, at no charge.  The only thing we ask for is a $100.00 dollar security deposit and you leave the Clubhouse as you found it.  The Pool is not included with the Clubhouse RENTAL. Contact Jim DeTemple @ 610-781-7434 for reservations.

As previously noted, we have updated our website and tabs regarding our Articles of Incorporation, Covenants, Amendments, Bylaws - now grouped under Operating Documents and Pool Rules. Check it out. Our updated ARC Forms were posted in February 2023. Be sure to review these documents if you have any questions.

Please Take Note: There are still at least 4 different trash and recycling companies operating in Rolling Meadows. To reduce the wear and tear on our roads, we continue to encourage property owners to use the services of Blue Hen as a single vendor for trash/recycling pick-up here in Rolling Meadows. Most do. If everyone would do so, it would eliminate three or more heavy trucks on our roads each week. The RMHA Board will very much appreciate your contribution to the upkeep and preservation of our roads. 

Your Board meets regularly and its members are in communication in between meetings as matters of importance to our community demand. Please feel free to contact our Board at any time with any questions, concerns, or suggestions you may have. Check the announcement board at our entrance and our website monthly for updates.

REMINDERS:
When walking your dog keep them on the road so you are not trespassing on anyone’s property and pick up after your pets. We have received complaints that certain residents are allowing their dog(s) to bark incessantly. Respect your neighbors and prevent your dog(s) from annoying others around you. 

Return your trash cans to their proper storage area after pick up.

Trim your grass back away from the road's edge so it doesn't grow into the road berm. Remove grass that has blown onto the road when finished mowing.

Obey the 20 mph speed limit. STOP at all STOP SIGNS. We have many walkers, runners, bikers, and children in our community.
