Web Site Tips

So how was the test? I bet you all got 100%. What shall we do this week? I know; I just had an idea. Question? What are the hours of operation around here? Log onto the website, and you arrive at OWNER HOME. Look to the left at the word Hours and click on that. Wowser!!! Hours for dining all over IronOaks, The Fitness Center, Pro Shops and Swimming Pools. Here is the beauty of this web site. No matter what page you open up, you will find the word Hours. And, guess what? There they are again. Absolutely no excuse to get somewhere only to find out it is too early or you are late.

Facilities Message

Change Is Coming To The Fitness Center Parking Lot

During the first week in September, the Facilities Department will be installing signs at the Fitness Center Driveway. As you approach from Robson Boulevard, the first driveway you come to will be ENTRANCE ONLY.
The driveway furthest from Robson Boulevard and closest to the Fitness Center pool will be EXIT ONLY. This is being done to create a smoother traffic flow and avoid potential accidents.

Message From Patrol

The Speed Minder was running on Champagne and here are the results:

Total Number of vehicles: 2073

Total Number at or under speed limit: 1108 53.44%

Total Number over the speed limit: 965 46.55%

Highest speed: 41

The Patrol monitored traffic on Champagne with a radar gun for 45 minutes. Over 50% of the vehicles were traveling over 30 mph. One was clocked at 43 mph.

Community Standards

Section 2: General Appearance of Property Paragraph A states: There shall be no hanging or draping of clothes, rags, carpet, or other paraphernalia on lines, furniture or any other objects visible to neighbors.

Some homes have hung some shiny streamers from fences, garage lights, patios, etc. Although they might look nice and be effective for whatever the purpose, it is a violation to do this and you could be given a citation. Please be aware of the Rules and stay in compliance.

Director of Patrol

Agave Health

Agave Predators

Along with over-watering agave cacti, there is another potential problem waiting to attack your plants. Its technical name is Scyphorous Acupunctatus or the Agave Billbug, Agave Weevil or just that ugly grub. According to Arizona Cactus, there is a twice a year treatment that will prevent this bug from making its home in your agave. In the spring and summer, sprinkle some Grub Control around the base of the plant. Use one shot glass full of the granules for a medium plant, and two shot glasses full for a large plant. Every time you water or it rains the granules will be activated and seep down into the soil to protect your plant.

A special thanks to IronOaks resident, Linda Spink, who did the research and forwarded it on for everyone to read and learn.

Saturday Entertainment

Freddy Vesely- Ivory Wood and Strings

Every Saturday, from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm at Sunsets in the Oakwood Clubhouse, Freddy Vesely will be playing the piano for your listening pleasure.
