Georgetown neighborhood Garage Sale – April 14-15

Leave a reply

Jennifer DeYoung is going to help Kim out this year and coordinate our neighborhood sale. The 2 sale days are April 14-15. Sale hours are 9am-4pm. Please respect these times. We do not open earlier so that we don’t interfere with the school buses.

Jennifer will be collecting donations for signs to put up around the neighborhood. Please drop off $2-5 in my mailbox at 1690 East Shore court. Please put the money in an envelope with your address on it so that I know you are participating. In addition, either in the envelope or through FB, please let me know what types of items you are selling so I can include them in sale advertisements.

Facebook Group link is:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/egsla/

Spread the word about our sale! If you know of a neighbor who is not on FB and would want to participate, let them know!

Thanks!

Happy Holidays from Georgetown Shores Lake Association!

We hope your family is enjoying a great Christmas this weekend and a wonderful New Year next weekend. It does not look much like Christmas outside with the warm temps recently but with the good food and fellowship of friends and family we hope you have a wonderful couple of weeks.

Attached please find a newsletter of things going on around the neighborhood. There are many articles full of great information. There are a few repeat articles that were good for all the new residents to see who have recently joined us here at Georgetown Shores.

Thank you for your support and making this a great place to live.

Blessings,
EGSLA

Georgetown Shores Ski League

Leave a reply

For those who are not familiar with the Georgetown Shores Ski League (GSSL) we are an unofficial group made up of individuals who like the challenge of improving their skiing ability in the company of friends.  This improvement is scored and tracked by each individual using the buoys in the west bay.  If you have only free skied, you should really try it.   It is kind of like a golfer always going to the driving range and then someone introduces them to a course where they keep score.  It can be a little frustrating but the challenge to improve is very satisfying.

If anyone has questions as to how this is done, stop by the house of any of those who ski it regularly and ask.  We would love to chat with anyone about it.

The league is set up with a handicap system that will level the playing field for the beginner to advanced skier.  The league will start on July 1, 2015 and end on September 7, 2015.  We will be using the month of June to determine your initial handicap.  In order to calculate your 2014 average, you must enter six scores in the League Webform prior to July 1st.  This is only applicable to those who are new to the ski league this year.  For those that skied last year, your last year score will be used to determine your handicap.

Tracking your scoring is as simple as entering your score into a web site (Thank you Randy Plaisier).  Scoring will include head to head completion, points for # of sets skied, points based on percentage of improvement, and (possibly?) points from a summer tournament.

Once again, we are looking forward to this year’s league competition.  Whether you are a beginner or you have been skiing the course for a few years, the handicap system will allow everyone who enters the ability to compete.  The ski league, even though competitive, is more about meeting neighbors and people who like to water ski.

A reminder to all that skiing the course is not to be done when the lake is busy.  There is no problem with driving through the buoys in any manner but when the lake is active with other boats, a state mandated counter clockwise rotation of the lake should be observed.
