April was a very busy month when many residents enjoyed the various activities and amenities that were offered. We brought back the Vertigo and Balance Seminar on April 23, and that was again well attended. Our Elvis Show was also an overwhelming success with a sold-out show! Our residents relived memorable moments with the great songs of the “King” himself. The Lake Ashton Volunteer Appreciation Month was capped off with a Joint CDD and CDD II Dinner and Dance on April 19. This was our way of thanking all those residents who gave so much to make Lake Ashton the outstanding community it is. The May 16 Community Potluck will be hosted at the HFC. This is an excellent chance for all our Lake Ashton populace to get together and enjoy each other ‘s company! There will be a dance at the HFC featuring the band Pressure Point on May 10, so put on your dancing shoes and come on out. Tickets are available at the HFC Activities Desk. There will also be a “Healthy Feet to Stay Active” seminar on May 14. This is part of our continuing series of wellness education for our community. We are hosting an investment seminar on May 21 which will address any of your financial concerns. Sig up early for these events. The Lake Ashton II Community Development District Board met and approved various infrastructure projects, an update on the security access control project, approval of landscaping on the Ashton Boulevard, as well as preliminary work sheets for supervisors for budget preparation in May. As that meeting will determine the 2025 budget, we encourage all our residents to attend, get updates, and voice your opinion on Board budget issues. The Lake Ashton Neighborhood Watch would like to remind everyone that if you are planning on going away this summer, let your Block Captains and Deputies know so we all can keep Lake Ashton the safe community it is! May is Military Appreciation Month, and LAVA will be having the Memorial Day Ceremony on May 27 at the Veterans Memorial. We take time to remember those who sacrificed themselves for our nation on this solemn occasion. The weekend of May 25-27 is “Operation Show Our Colors” when residents are encouraged to line their property with U.S. Flags. In addition, the LA Veterans Association will line community entrances and the HFC and Clubhouse with flags. Let us all do our best to show our love of this country and our veterans. We look forward to seeing all of you throughout the community and at the Health and Fitness Center during the month of May!
