Ladies Summer Book
Club 
The ladies of First Baptist Church of Marietta are having a
Summer Book Club at the Lee’s Crossing Clubhouse, and we would love for you to
join us! This is our second annual
summer book club, and we had so much fun last year that we can’t wait to get
started again.
This summer, we will be reading A Lineage of Grace
by Francine Rivers, a collection of five novellas telling the stories of the
women listed in the lineage of Jesus:
Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and Mary.
These are fictionalized accounts based on the Biblical scriptures with a
powerful message of grace throughout. We
will be meeting on four Tuesdays this summer (June 5th, June 26th,
July 10th, and July 24th) at 7pm in the Lee’s Crossing clubhouse. Our books have to be ordered from out of the
country, so we have to order them by May 5th or so to get them back
in time for our first meeting. Childcare
is available by reservation. For more
information or to register, please contact Karla Jacobs at 770-428-4739 or karlajacobs@aol.com.
Calling All Scrapbookers, Stampers and
Crafters...
On the second Friday of each month, the Lee's Crossing
Clubhouse will be open for you to come down and have some time to work on your
favorite crafting past time. Tables and chairs will be set up, all you
need to bring are the items you need to work with and a snack and beverage. You can also bring a friend!
Clubhouse will be open from 7pm until the last person leaves.
If you have any questions, please call Debbie Brown at
770-528-9094.

Expanded
State Watering Ban
The following
is from the City of Marietta’s
website:
Declared Drought Response
Level Two
The city of Marietta is requesting
residents and businesses observe water restrictions set by the Georgia
Department of Natural Resources that ban outdoor water use from 10 a.m. to
midnight Saturdays through Thursdays. No outdoor water use is permitted on
Fridays. Outdoor water use is allowed during non-banned hours on scheduled days
as follows:
Monday, Wednesday and Saturday: even numbered or unnumbered addresses may water
from 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. only.
Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday: odd numbered addresses may water from 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. only.
Marietta Water
will strictly enforce the restrictions. Warnings are issued for a first
offense. Subsequent offenses result in escalating fines for each offense up to
$500, water service disconnection and prosecution.
For more
information, call 770-794-5229.
Mailbox Post Cleaning and Painting
Our neighbor, Walter
Dean, has graciously volunteered to clean and paint the mailbox post of anyone
in Lee’s Crossing who needs this work done.
This is a no charge service. If
you would like to schedule a time for Walter to do this work at your home, please
call him at 404-862-3895.
Newsletter by E-Mail
Quite a few of us
have signed up to receive the newsletter via e-mail. If you haven’t done so, please consider a few
advantages. Getting the newsletter via
e-mail not only saves money for the HOA, but also saves paper. You will also get the e-mail version earlier
than the paper version (depending on editor/stringer schedules, maybe several
days earlier). Having a mostly e-mail
distribution allows a later cut-off date for articles and also allows events
the first couple of days of the month to be included in the current newsletter. Please consider signing up for e-mail
delivery. Send your request to leescrossing@comcast.net.
For those
of you who are already signed up for e-mail distribution – if your e-mail
address changes, please make sure to notify us!

I
Recommend……
This is your opportunity to recommend a business to your neighbors. If you know of someone that does a good job,
please send us a SHORT testimonial that we can share.
Sarah Donehoo would like to recommend Bess West (H - 770-977-9971/C - 404-234-6986) for painting and
wallpapering. She also does tile work and sheetrock repair. Bess is
careful about covering everything before she paints and cleans up
well when finished. She has used Bess for this type work since 1997
and has always been pleased with her work.
The Childress family at 680 Trailwood Lane would like to
recommend Academy Roofing. Our
house had roof damage from the April hail storm and was totaled by our
insurance company as were the roofs of several other homes on our street and
behind us on Briarmeade. Academy did a clean, quick, and beautiful
job. Call Joe Garrett with Academy (our own neighbor on Chestnut Hill) to
take a look at your roof. We had no idea we had that kind of damage.
Contact Joe at 404-944-0579 or jgarrett@theroofingprofessor.com.
