Status of our pool:  We all know that we have been struggling to keep memberships up for years.  This year we had an all time low number of memberships (92).  We need well over 100 to be able to keep the pool open.  The low number of memberships this year puts us behind for next year but we will open!  Next year, we will be sending out membership applications very early.  We will need that money to make the first payment to our pool management company early in May. We strongly encourage you to send in your membership payment early next year.  We will have incentives for joining early.  We may also offer a payment plan.  If you have any ideas on how to help the pool please don’t hesitate to contact Tom Thomas at 221-3734 or email us at wedgewoodpool@hotmail.com.

Crab Feast Volunteer needed:  We need someone to volunteer to run our annual crab feast.  If you can help please call Tom Thomas at 221-3734 or email us at wedgewoodpool@hotmail.com.  The volunteer would need to order and pick up the crabs/beverages/and other food items needed as well as collect the money for the tickets.  This event will not happen without a volunteer!

Pool Pizza Party #3 will be on Friday, August 15th from 6-9 p.m.  Swimming begins at 6 p.m.  Pizza, soda, and music will begin at 7 p.m. We’ll try to make sure all of the pizza arrives at 7 p.m. sharp.  Thank you for being patient last time. This is free to members and only $10 per family to Eagle Glen and Hawk’s Nest residents.  Pizza & soda are included.  If anyone would like to bring a side dish to share feel free.  The kids would love it.  Ideas: chips/doritos/popcorn/brownies/rice krispie treats/cup cakes/potato salad/pasta salad/etc.  We’ll try to put a sign up sheet in the breezeway for attendance & side dishes.
