MARCH SNOW

 We all enjoyed the warmest February on record.   March in Indiana always holds some surprises!  We rose today to rooftops and grass covered with a surprise snow!

WATER SPOUT!

 I came across Sweetwater Dam this morning to the sight of 2 water spouts!  The local fire department was conducting a practice/test of drawing water out of the lake with an elaborate pump system for emergency fire fighting methods.

TREES DOWN

 The high winds last week produced a number of trees down in the area.  Another big oak came donw on Badger Drive in a dead calm!  Can't explain!  It did have a big dead center in in it.  Thanks to Josh and workers at the Conservancy District for clearing the drive for Badger Drive residents.  

FIERCE WINDS

 Fierce predicted 60 mph winds on Thursday, February 9th, whipped through the area all day.  Many trees were down causing power outages in several areas.  This cottage on Nettle Drive took a direct hit.  Brown's Tree service were quick to appear and remove the tree from the structure.

CSLOA CHILI COOKOFF SUCCESS!

 It was "standing room only" as last night's CSLOA Chili Cookoff held at the clubhouse.  Congratulations to Nick Goodman, Dale Sears, and Pat Hatfield for being declared the winners.  Much thanks to the officers of the Cordry Sweetwater Lot Owners Assocation for sponsoring and this and many other events.

RIP BOB WEST

 The family of Bob West celebrated his life on Saturday, January 28th, 2023 at the CSLOA Clubhouse from 1:00-4:00.  A large gathering enjoyed past memories and food provided for the event.  Bob will be missed by all of his neighbors and friends in the lakes. 

ELECTION RESULTS

 Looks like Mike Leavitt won the Area 3 election against Matt Petersen.  The area 7 results ended up in an exact "tie" with 108 votes for each candidate. 

  Due to the "tie,"  Joe Kurdziel removed his name leaving Ted Adolay the representative for area 7.
