FOR THE SECOND TIME THIS SUMMER….

The neighborhood had an actual bear sighting on 8/6/2023 at approximately 7:00am. A resident took a small dog out for his morning business, when turning the corner on his house, a bear popped up. The bear was approximately 4 foot high on four legs, and weighted an estimated 400 – 500 pounds.

Please remember that a few ways we can help reduce the presence of bears in our community is to remove the feeding sources (bird feeders and trash) by placing trash in your garage until early on trash days and not put bird feeders out until after daylight and taking them in at sundown.

The annual Falcon’s Lair Easter Egg Hunt was held on March 25 at the Linder’s home on Troon Lane. Approximately 50 adults and children of all ages participated in the Easter fun. Many thanks to the Linders, the Bunnings, and the rest of the community who helped or participated.

The Falcon’s Lair CSA Board of Directors and Architectural Review Board met jointly at 6:30pm on February 16, 2023 at the Hilewitz/Shaver home.
