We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government.

The words above were written over 230 years ago but they still define the way we, as Americans, think. We believe in laws that are just and protect personal freedoms. We believe in living under laws and in following them and understand that a Civic Association might have slightly tighter laws than the local municipalities. But when a BOD decides it wants to re-invent a community to be what they want and not what the homeowner's want then they are abusing the power of their positions and must be stopped. We believe that the Pennsylvania State should come up with basic rights for homeowner's in associations. We also believe that since we pay both county and township taxes we should get some services, that just because we live in a gated community still deserve things such as police patrols.

We need members to get involved in their community! Members need to make sure that Boards do the work of the community in a timely fashion. That the work they do is for the betterment of the community not personal agendas or ego trips. We need volunteers on our committees right now. Some committees we used to have are no more because of no volunteers. We need people to show up at the monthly BOD meetings and to come out to our Town Hall Meetings and find out what is going on. Without everyone's involvement and treating each other in a respect and dignified way we can find ourselves loosing property and civil rights. We can end up with another Board that does what it wants not what the membership wants or needs.

Our goals are simple and few, what we wish to accomplish is:

*Preserve property owner's rights.

*Limit Board and Committees authority over members property rights.

*Simplify the Rules and Regulations. Waiting also for members thoughts at a future Town Hall Meeting!

*Propose By-Law changes that are easier to read. That make sense and are fair and just. Completed and waiting for members thought on a future Town Hall Meeting.

* Change our out of date Covenants. Being worked on!
