Life is Short. Do Stuff that Matters

“What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.”  Jane Goodall

 So, to that end, we need a few residents to step up and serve on the Transition Committee.  The Board has recently chartered this Committee and is seeking qualified residents to apply.  The Committee members will have a sincere interest in doing the necessary “due diligence” to insure the integrity of White Mountain Vacation Village Recreational Subdivision Association (RSA) at transition from Declarant control to owner control.

Beware the Bear!

Donna Holick has confirmed bear sightings from Ellsworth Road to Elk Trot Loop.  It’s a young one searching for food and water. Please put all trash in receptacles and consider not feeding squirrels, birds etc. for the time being.

The bear left a nice pile of bear scat at the bottom of Donna’s stairs.

In the last decade or so, bark beetles have been found in spruce, lodge pole, pinyon-juniper, and ponderosa forests.
