Lee’s Crossing
Monthly
Newsletter July 2008
From the President:
Dear Residents,
The Association has terminated our relationship with Community One as property manager. By agreement, the termination was to be effective as of the end of July. Community One just informed us, however, that the person in charge of our account was not going to be available during much of July and asked for a termination as of June 30.
The Association expects to have a new professional manager under contract as of August 1. Our goal is to have thorough and consistent enforcement of the covenants, with prompt attention to communication with residents. We are mindful that the overall objective is to maximize property values and enjoyment of all residents. Until the new manager is on board, please direct your questions and requests for approval to Erroll Eckford, our Director in charge of architectural controls.
Our recent dive in pool party was a great success with approximately 125 residents in attendance. We look forward to additional such evenings. Thanks to Beth Garrett for making the event enjoyable for all.
The Board would like to recognize the recent honor bestowed
upon one of our fellow residents. Ed Wilson is an inductee into the Marietta
City Schools Athletic Hall of Fame. Eddie was a multi sport athlete at
I hope your summer is going well.
Sincerely,
Walt Walker

Social News
Our first DIVE IN Movie went well!! About 125 people
enjoyed popcorn and socializing poolside while watching National Treasure II on a big movie screen. What
fun! KEEP YOUR EYE OUT FOR THE NEXT ONE! Thank you to the
July 4th is coming up, and although we're not providing the meat, we'll have some "fixins" and your drinks. I encourage you to come grill on your own poolside at lunch that day. Any social committee members or friendly neighborhood helpers that want to chip in a hand with serving or cleanup are welcome: thanks.
I've had an opportunity to meet some new neighbors at the pool. I encourage all the seasoned Lee's crossing friends to reach out to individuals or couples that seem to be alone at an event or the pool and introduce yourselves...they may be newbies!! Lets help everyone feel welcome.
Lost Cat – Reward!
Please
help us find our lost family member, “Butters”. He is an orange tabby (orange
stripes) with yellow eyes, and is declawed (front paws). Please check about your home if you have
areas (fences, decks, basements, playhouses) that a curious cat may wander
into. He likes to play with water and is
friendly but shy. Our pet recovery expert indicates that there is no evidence
of a coyote attack, so please don’t give up! Please call Marilyn anytime 24/7
at 404-932-0799 or 770-429-0668 if you have seen him. There is a SUBSTANTIAL REWARD if you find
him.

From George and Cathy Turner
As a Lee Crossing homeowner for 23 years, we have had our share of service companies perform various tasks with various results; as I am sure any homeowner can understand; good help can be hard to find.
This past March our home suffered storm damage from a fallen tree limb. The damage was extensive and our homeowner’s insurance was faithful (ALLSTATE). However, this letter is to recognize the service company that met our ever need. By the way, the company owner is a resident as well.
From our first meeting, they kept their word. We could always rely on them to return phone calls, make reasonable bids and prepare insurance requests. The workers were always trustworthy and mannerly, but most of all, they completed the main jobs in a timely manner. Our satisfaction was of the utmost importance. So often relationships in the service industry start properly, but end less than satisfactorily.
From the beginning, Ocampo Painting and More made every effort to transform an arduous ordeal into a simple act of returning our damaged home back to its cherished state. I believe in giving credit where credit is due, and I owe Ocampo Painting and More an abundance of gratitude.
