ENTRANCE GATE REMINDERS damage that will be the responsibility of the driver. If unsure if the vehicle is close to the height of the overhang please err on the side of caution and use the right side to exit. PLEASE DO NOT HIT THE BUTTON ON YOUR GATE CLICKER TO EXIT THE COMMUNITY. This opens the entrance gates and can cause an unsafe situation. Please use caution when entering and exiting the community via the Thompson Nursery Road and CR 653 entrances. The entry gates are not on a sensor, they close after each vehicle. Cars should stop at the stop sign, hit the button on the entrance gate remote, and proceed through the open gate. If residents hit the button on the remote coming off of Thompson Nursery Road or CR 653 it does not allow for enough time for the vehicle to make it through the gate. In addition there have been many reported cases of tailgating when entering the community. A new sign has been installed at the Thompson Nursery Road entrance reminding residents not to tailgate. If any of the gates are damaged due to negligence on the driver's part any costs involved with the replacement of the gate arm will be the responsibility of the driver (Approximately $800, currently). While it may appear to be helpful to hit the button on your gate remote to open the gate for a resident that appears to be having difficulty with their remote, this could be someone trying to gain access to the community for ill purposes. If a resident is having difficulty with their remote security will assist. Please be patient and wait until the car ahead of you receives the help they need and proceeds through the gate before you hit the button on your remote to enter the gate. When exiting the community, any vehicle close to the height of the overhang should use the right lane to exit the community even if turning left on Thompson Nursery Road. Not doing so puts your vehicle at risk of damage not to mention possible property HOMELESS GRADUATING SENIORS By Doris Reisinger Another GREAT year of Lake Ashton generosity for these well deserving students! As of the week of April 15, the final collection total was $12,560! This included eight gift cards equaling 135. We also donated four bags of domestic items such as sheets towels and personal hygiene items. Our total could not have been possible without the generosity of "The Shufflin Squares" and the "Italian Club" of Lake Ashton. Approximately 47 residents participated in individual donations. This year NINE scholarships will be awarded and 147 duffle bags will be handed to the students. A graduation party will be held April 24 with Dr. Caba as their motivational speaker. A great big THANK YOU goes out to both the staff at the Clubhouse and HFC for their cooperation in this effort.
