Have you ever wanted to be Tom Sawyer? This is your chance. You are all invited to help reenact a Mark Twain story by coming out and painting the Woodlake wooden fence. February 21-22 for the repair and February 28-March 1 for the painting. Our front entrance has undergone much needed improvements and now the fence needs to be fixed and repainted. Homeowners last painted the fence thirteen years ago and now with funds from the Richland County Neighborhood Improvement grant we can do this again.

This will be an opportunity to meet your neighbors and to bring the kids for a fun and easy project that will beautify the subdivision. In the Mark Twain story, Tom Sawyer got his friends to do the actual painting, which is not what we want. We need everyone to help out with repairs and painting. So bring your brushes and hammers and mark your calendars for those weekends. Refreshments and pizza will be provided for those who come to help.

Let us know if you are willing to help! Contact Howard van Dijk at 788-9559 or email [email protected] We will organize the times for you and your kids to come and work. Thanks for your support of our neighborhood!

tes Woodlake Homeowners Board Meeting

Minutes of the Woodlake Homeowners Board meeting held on Monday, June 8th, 2015.

In Attendance: Debbie Morris, Kent Haggerty, Rick Hickok, Fred Mansperger, Nick Nickel, Howard van Dijk, Diann Williams and SCS representative Brooks Owings.

Also present prior to the meeting was Liz Jameson and Katie Hilton representing “Woodlake Families”, a recently formed group to bring young families together within Woodlake. They had expressed an interest in using the pavilion as a meeting place for their regular get-togethers. Following their presentation, the board decided that as this group was restricted to just Woodlake families, they would be able to reserve and use the pavilion without payment of the normal $50 fee.

Minutes:The board approved minutes of the May 13th board meeting as amended.

Financials:Brooks reviewed financials as of 5/31/15. Several residents whose delinquent regime fees exceed the $800 threshold have made no attempt to call SCS to set up payment plans. These two have been placed in Association foreclosure. All other formerly delinquent accounts have either paid off their account or have set up payment plans. As a result, the WHOA percentage of collection is high.

Newsletter: • Due to the announced closing of SOHO who has printed our newsletter in the past, the

board discussed possible ways the newsletter is printed and distributed moving forward. The board decided that future issues will be emailed to all residents who have provided email addresses. A quantity of fifty newsletters will initially be printed and will be available at the pavilion for pick-up by those residents whose email addresses we do not have. Brooks to send letter to all residents requesting email addresses if they have not previously provided them. Brooks also to check to see if advertisements can still be used to offset printing costs.

Neighborhood Improvement:• Green Earth has recently undergone some personnel changes including the removal of our

primary contact there. Since Green Earth provides Woodlake with all of our landscaping needs, Brooks will speak with David at Green Earth about recent changes at their firm and how those changes may affect the services they provide for us.

• Green Earth needs to add additional Algerian Ivy at the front entrance.• Per Nick, core soil samples of the dam to be scheduled to be taken in the near future to

determine the composition of the dam. Also, it is estimated that the water level will be lowered approximately ten feet to accommodate placement of the new riser system. At completion, the current riser system will be filled with concrete. A target date for the work is November of this year.

Covenant Violations:• A homeowner utilizing empty lot across street, also curved lane for parking for private

parties, causing hazardous driving situation. Letter to go out to homeowner.• Two homes in disrepair. A letter has gone out to one and a letter will be going out to the

other

Security/Safety:• RAIDS report for 5/11 thru 6/7 showed no criminal activity in Woodlake.• Neighborhood email tree is increasing, up to 146 families now. We have a total of 13 who

have volunteered to be block captains, still need more. • Upon Debbie’s inquiry, DOT explained that construction was to begin at the front

entrance for new sidewalks to be installed extending from the middle school driveway on Rhame Road to the Hillridge subdivision.

• Richland County had stated that a grant was in place to provide striping of Bridgecreek Drive however it was unclear as to whether that funding was for fiscal year 2016 or 2017. Debbie to call for clarification.

• Mike Poole, upon Debbie’s request, visited two homes and reported back his findings in each case. One involved a vehicle driving erratically in the neighborhood, another regarding aggressive unleashed dogs and a vehicle which may not have current registration sticker.

• Three dead trees remain at the AT&T equipment near the tennis courts. Fred to contact AT&T to request removal.

Miscellaneous:• The back gate to the pool needs repair. The board approved up to $1,000 for the necessary

welding and brickwork.• Bathrooms locking too early. Need to be reprogrammed to lock from 12 am to 6 am.

Meeting was adjourned at 8:38 pm. Upcoming meeting Monday, August 10th at 6:30pm at the Pavilion.

Respectfully submitted, Fred Mansperger


Woodlake Pool is Open! Things You Need to Know...

Please take this opportunity to review the pool and pavilion rules with your family. They can be found in the back of the Woodlake Directory. These rules were instituted to benefit the entire Woodlake community. The most all encompassing is:

Please be respectful of our residents’ time enjoying the pool! That includes:

1. No monopolizing the pool, either with floats, toys or group activities.

2. Keep all music/electronic devices’ volume low. 3. Adhere to the maximum number of guest per household: Six.4. Understand that if you have reserved the pavilion for a party,

Please remember...when leaving the pool area, do NOT leave the umbrellas up! A strong wind can send them flying into the air, causing damage and/or injury!

Are You a New Resident of Woodlake?If you are, please complete the following information and get it to Charlie Johnson. You can drop it in the paper box at 100 Morning Echo, or call 736-0917, or email the information to [email protected]. We’ll list you in the Woodlake newsletter and directory. You’ll also

receive a “Welcome Packet” with car decals, a Woodlake directory and a copy of the covenants.

that does not include use of the pool as well, because that takes away from Woodlake residents’ ability to enjoy their neighborhood pool.

5. Please do NOT prop open either the pool gates or the bathroom doors for this invites non-residents in the pool or bathroom areas.

A pool “fob” is necessary in order to access the gated pool and the pavilion bathrooms. If you have lost/misplaced your pool fob, call Southern Community Services to order a new one. You’ll need to pick up the replacement at the SCS office at 101 Rice Bent Way, Suite 11 (the road just before the Publix on Hard Scrabble Road). There is a nominal charge for a replacement fob.

What is a Storm Drainage System?

Storm drainage systems carry water off the streets during rain storms and direct that water to nearby streams. These systems include storm drains, underground storm sewer pipes, ditches and swales. When drainage systems get blocked by debris, they back up causing flooded streets, dangerous road conditions and damage to homes and property. During a flood, clogged storm drains make water levels rise higher and damage is more widespread. Dumping anything into storm drains, ditches or streams is illegal.

Only rain down the storm drainStorm drains flow directly to streams, lakes and rivers,

carrying pollutants from streets, lawns and parking lots. Common stormwater pollutants include: oil, gasoline, sediment, pet waste, fertilizers, pesticides, litter and debris.

We’re not just taking trashLeaves, grass clippings, tree limbs and large debris can block storm drains and ditches.• Do not dump leaves or yard waste into ditches or streams.• Leaves and grass clippings can be composted, spread as

mulch or left on the lawn as natural fertilizer.• Yard waste set out for collection should be kept out of the

street or gutter, away from storm drains.• Do not blow leaves into the street with a leaf blower.

Call the Richland County Ombudsman’s Office - 803-929-6000 to report stormwater violations and issues including flooding, clogged storm drains, illegal dumping, sanitary sewer overflow or other signs of pollution.

Families in Woodlake Start New Group!Woodlake Families is a new neighborhood group aimed at

creating fun events for families in our neighborhood. In June, we had our

first event, an end of school ice cream social at the pavilion.

This fall, we are planning a back-to-school movie night, Trunk or Treat,

a Carolina vs Clemson pep rally and gingerbread house-making.

Please visit facebook.com and search for Woodlake Families

to join our private group or to help plan future events.

Ingredients:4 tablespoons olive oil5 cloves garlic, finely minced1 pint red grape tomatoes, halved lengthwise1 pint yellow grape tomatoes, halved lengthwise1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar16 whole fresh basil leaves, plus more as needed, chiffonadeSalt and freshly ground black pepper1 whole baguette or crusty loaf1 stick butter

If you have a recipe that you’d like to share with your neighbors, please submit as a word document to the Woodlake newsletter editor at: [email protected][ [

Total Time: 1 hr 30 min Prep: 20 min 12 servings

Directions:In a small skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and stir, lightly frying for about a minute, removing before the garlic gets too brown (it can be golden). Pour the garlic and oil into a mixing bowl and allow to cool slightly.

Add the red and yellow tomatoes, balsamic and basil to the bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to combine, and then taste and add more basil if needed, and more salt if needed (don’t over salt, though!) Cover and refrigerate for an hour or two if you have the time.

Cut the baguette into diagonal slices to allow for the most surface area possible. Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet and grill half the bread on both sides, making sure they’re nice and buttery. Cook until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and the other half of the bread.

To serve, give the tomato mixture a final stir, and then spoon generously over the slices of bread. Serve on a big platter as a first course or appetizer.
