President's Letter

Letter from the President
Spring 2008
Greetings Members:
We are in the process of going completely electronic. If you are one of the last few people getting this by snail mail, please take the time now and send an e-mail to Al Lyon at: lyonclan@comcast.net . We want to be able to inform you of important matters as soon as they happen.
Last year I started out my super bowl letter by saying how cold it was 3, with a wind chill of 20. What a difference a year, and even a week makes around here. Today it is 32 degrees. I added thousands of dollars of insulation in my basement: the pink panther fiberglass insulation underneath the floor between the joists and 4 inches of rigid on all the walls. Now it is always warmer in my basement than it is in my house. But, I have ice backing up under the shingles giving me a steady drip in my bedroom. I am off to Lowe’s for heat tape.
Here are important dates to mark on your calendar:
1. June 19, 2008, Thursday, 7-10 p.m., Saugatuck Dunes Coastal Alliance fund raiser: Dancing with the Stars at Fenn Valley Winery.
2. July 19, 2008, Saturday night Summer Social at the Saugatuck Yacht Club
3. July 26, 2008, Saturday, 9:30 a.m., Annual meeting at Douglas City Hall.
Last year, I said that “Many of the DLSA board members and you have been very involved in local issues that could significantly impact the quality of our lives. We seem to be under siege by developers who want to build all around us.” The efforts by so many of you have doubled, not only in time commitment and letter writing, but in money contributions to the Saugatuck Dunes Coastal Alliance legal defense fund. Thank you.
I am thrilled to be working with such a great board of motivated and concerned people who are interested in both preserving our community and making it better. Thank you for the opportunity to serve with such a great group!
