Help Wanted

Board Secretary needed. Any volunteers - please notify the office so your name can be considered for this much-valued service for the Village.

Maintenance
Along with our everyday maintenance tasks, we continued to clear more underbrush and tree branches that try to take over our streets. This winter we removed many obstacles the Fire Dept. and EMS were having problems with maneuvering around the Village. The first major phase of repaving was completed. Plans are underway to redo the circle entrances, and finish paving Little River Drive and circles. We have been looking into some of our current drainage problems. We can repair some, and have estimates for clearing others this year. The dock has had some work done and will be finished this year. The ceiling in the Library has been repaired; exercise room ceiling will be finished shortly. We have reworked the dirt road down to the dock and compound. Please resist the urge to spin your tires in the dirt. Mosquito spraying has been done on almost weekly basis. Charlie Nill

Election
I would like to thank the Election Committee members for their invaluable service – stuffing and mailing out the ballots, counting the ballots, manning the tables on the day of the Annual meeting. Jackie Andrews

Beautification
The front entrance has been taken care of, and is looking beautiful. We will be working with Maintenance on plans for the island circle’s curbing and possible new signage throughout the Village. Bids are being obtained. Jean Phalen.

Legal
Most of the money from our legal account has been spent for liens on properties. Other money was spent due to an ongoing parking dispute by a resident. Hopefully this will be resolved shortly.
Barbara Tanner

Security
We purchased a security pendant for the front office. Security can be contacted by pushing a button. Security mirror was installed at front office. Additional cameras were added at the office, pier, compound, and double gates. We also have a new pc for the security room. We had many calls about children skateboarding on the roads. Letters were sent and fines were levied for repeat offenders. Lt. Duke of the Horry County Police Dept. met with residents to explain what can be done to stop problems we are having. A chairperson is needed. Please call Barbara Tanner if interested.

Compound
We enlarged the inside by approximately 12 spots. We enlarged the outside with approximately 24 new spots. We have a name on each lot now, making it easier to contact the owner in case of emergency. We have cleaned up two truckloads of debris. Barbara Tanner

General Advisory (GAC)
Committee recommendations included: need for more active support for Security Committee including hired professionals on busy summer weekends; review of current security system and support for higher tech devices which assist with identifying those who damage POS property and/or break rules; upgrade of Clubhouse sound system; need for better control of outside fires; need to control use of space along our roads to improve access by large vehicles, especially emergency vehicles; need to encourage members to contact legislators re bill in State Senate which will put additional controls on HOAs. Hugh Cotcamp

Hospitality
We had 18 new owners and 16 new renters during the year.
Connie Vaughn

Social
We had dinners in September, December, March, May, and July, and in November the Boat Regatta party. We had an Easter breakfast and egg hunt. We furnished refreshments for Clean-up Day at the pool. We have bingo each Wednesday at 7:30. There have been many clubhouse rentals. Replacement items were purchased for the kitchen. We appreciate the help of all members, and invite new volunteers to call Pat Horne.

Revised: December 12, 2008

There is an issue that could have dramatic consequences for Windjammer - the proposed Diversion Canal from the Waccamaw to Little River which would follow Mullet Creek in our area. The Storm Water Board is meeting on Aug. 25 at 3pm in Conway. Since it could adversely affect Big Landing, Heather Lakes, Heather Glen and Windjammer, a coordinated response to the Storm Water Board from
Little River is being prepared by the HOAs.
