The Preserve Annual Picnic Survey – If you haven’t voted this year, please do so here. Voting closes Sunday, May 9th. We’re getting excited for the Annual Preserve Picnic on Saturday, June 13th at 5:30 PM! So far, we’ve received 13 responses to our Social Committee survey – thank you to those who’ve already shared their input. We’d love to hear from even more neighbors to help shape this year’s event. Many of you told us you’d like to keep the picnic format the same, with one possible update: the food. Some residents are interested in different options or a plan that doesn’t require bringing a dish to share. We need your help to decide! Please take a moment to complete this quick survey and let us know your preference for the June 13th picnic. Thank you for taking the time to help us create a fun and enjoyable evening for everyone—we truly appreciate your input!
Happy Hour – Join your neighbors on Sunday, May 17th at 5:00 PM for a fun and relaxed evening together. All are welcome – whether you’re a long-time resident or new to the community. Feel free to bring an appetizer or dessert to share and remember it’s BYOB. It’s always a great time with good conversation, laughter, and friendly faces—we hope to see you there! Your host from the social committee will be Michelle Hendren.
Neighborhood Nosh – The next Neighborhood Nosh will be Wednesday, May 20th at Woodbridge Inn at 6:00 pm. RSVP to Elizabeth Wilke at: elizabethwilke17@gmail.com or 678-596-5545. Please let her know by FRIDAY, MAY 15th.
Namaste Neighbors! Come stretch, breathe, and connect with your community at our Lodge for Lawn Yoga – a calm, feel-good class with just the right touch of fun. First & third Wednesdays- weather permitting, beginning May 20th at 9:30 AM on the Lodge Lawn. This is yoga for every body—no experience, flexibility, or fancy poses required. Just bring a mat, some water, and a willingness to unwind in the fresh mountain air. Led by resident Colleen Kazanchy, you’ll be guided through a gentle, relaxing flow designed to ease tension, quiet the mind, and maybe even spark a few smiles along the way. Tips aren’t just for cow pose… donations are always welcome. Come for the stretch, stay for the neighbors – we can’t wait to see you there!
Open Invitation – This is your invitation to attend the Open Board Meeting on Tuesday, May 12 at 6pm at the Amicalola EMC Dean Center in Jasper.
To all those celebrating, remembering, honoring, or simply making it through this weekend – we wish you comfort, connection, and a beautiful few days ahead.
