We Need Your Help – Volunteer Opportunities

Pool Committee – Plans are to open the pool on Memorial Day and the more volunteers there are to help maintain it, the better it will be for everyone. If you would like to help, please contact Guy Sanders. A pool cleanup day will be held later in May, please consider helping get the pool ready to open.

Neighborhood Watch – We are still soliciting additional people who would like to assist with a Neighborhood Watch patrol, just making rounds of the neighborhood, looking for and reporting suspicious activity. Please contact Ray Hensley if you would like to volunteer.

Pool and Boat Ramp Access

Electronic access to the pool for this summer is currently being tested. Keys will be issued only to members in good standing, so if you have not yet paid those 2019 maintenance fees, please do so ASAP. More information about key distribution will be provided in the mailing with the ballots.

If you use the boat ramp, PLEASE re-lock the gate after you open it.

Mowing

It’s been a very wet spring and grass and weeds are growing like, well, like weeds. Mowing of the Wildewood common areas has begun. Please remember that keeping the right of ways in front of the lots as well as the lots themselves mowed is the property owner’s responsibility. If you have a lot that needs to be mowed, or need just the right of way in front of your property mowed and would like to pay to have our contractor mow it, please contact wildewoodboard@gmail.com and we can put you in touch with him.

Architectural Control

Please contact John Davis 936-204-2027 if you would like to report lots that have violations of the restrictions. Architectural control is currently working with a number of home owners to have properties cleaned up, so please volunteer to help.

Maintenance Fees

If you are not current on your maintenance fees, please send them to PO Box 415 Chandler, TX 75758 or contact wildewoodboard@gmail.com if you would like to meet someone and have them take your payment, or if you need to arrange a payment plan.
