Did anyone notice the egg hunt sign that went up yesterday for this Saturday - 10:00 - 1:00?

Anyone going? 

Would of been nice if we had more of a notice -- say, maybe in our newsletter that is non-existent, but part of our outrageous HOA fee.

Hope they're planning for a ton of kids.

A postcard was mailed a month or so ago. Also on the postcard was a notice about a community garage sale and I believe it was also in the newsletter too...

it was indeed mentioned in the newsletter....im sure however that our own community could organize something like this on our own and avoid them putting things like this into our dues

Weird...we didn't get a newsletter or postcard.  Maybe they don't know we exist? We've been in our house for over a year now.

Got another postcard with the egg hunt on it today

Said something about finding a golden egg to win a prize, easter bunny pics for $3 and a roaming magician... and had some other future events listed on it too.

If you don't want to pay for the Bunny picture,  just wait until next Saturdays (March 22nd) event at Pacana.  The pictures are free. 

Actually, the entire event is free...bounce houses, games, crafts, egg hunts, etc.  We went last year and it was GREAT!

I realize it's only $3, but wasn't one of the reasons our fees were raised was b/c of community events?  Then why are we expected to pay for anything?  The way i see it, it's like paying double taxes...didn't we already pay for this event in our monthly dues?  Am I wrong here?

At the least, Saturays event will give us a chance to corner someone about the lack of landscaping at the tower, the broken curb in the roundabout, over grown weeds in common areas and much much more.

Looks like kids throwing rocks to me. This is the kind of thing we can expect with the elementary school here, it's only going to get worse once the Jr High opens--IMHO

Would be nice if they started at 10 like stated, so when people got there at 10 they were told that there were no more eggs that they all started early and al the eggs were gone by 10.

I have 3 unhappy kids this morning.

My kids are just as unhappy, they had told me that they would start at 10:00 and each age group would be on thier own. This didn't happen. We got there just a few min's past 10:00 (10:05) all the eggs we gone and all the games stupid.
