FWIW June 24, 2016 - Alpine Lake Resort

***For What It’s Worth***

Editor’s Comment
The fierce squall was howling, blowing a soaking sideways rain on everyone! Thunder boomed overhead as
lightning struck across the wind swept lake! Yet this did not deter the brave and hungry souls who were
determined to enjoy their evening with good friends and delicious food at last week’s Carry-In Picnic at the
Boathouse! Several days later, a similar weather pattern ocurred during the first ever Summer Solistice festival
held at the lake pavilion. But no worries! Many still attended, enjoying an evening of kayaking on a moonlit
night (yes, the moon did peak out finally from behind the clouds), having great conversations with friends
while eating tasty hors d’oeuvres, desserts and drinks! Yes, that’s how we do it here at Alpine! Party hearty!
Thank you, Jim and Norleen Hoadley, for organizing such an enjoyable evening. Rumor has it that there just
may be another such event in the works!
Some important reminders! If you signed up for the tour of the Lavender Farm next week, you MUST prepay
by Sunday, June 26th. Also, the 5th Annual Music Festival is July 9th. The last day to purchase discounted
tickets is July 2nd (please refer to the flyer at the end of this publication). A 4th of July picnic will be held at the
Boathouse and SEASONS Restaurant has scheduled several breakfast buffets in July as well as a dance with a
DJ. The exact dates for these activities are listed in the “Coming Events” section. Please read, in detail, about
all the above “happenings” and more in this issue of your FWIW. See you around the lake!
The next FWIW will be issued on Friday, July 8th. Please email all articles to
me, Janice Nelson, at [email protected], or use the FWIW box on the
lobby counter. Please keep your article brief so we can fit all the news in each
issue. Thanks for your cooperation and participation. Enjoy!

HAPPENINGS AROUND THE LAKE & NEARBY…
LADIES WHO KAYAK by Sally Rocchi
Every Friday, 9am, at the boat launch, the ladies will be placing their kayaks in the water, paddling around the
lake, and “yakking.” Please come join us. The kayak launcher makes it really easy to get in and out of your
boat. Make sure you have a light weight rope, about 6 feet long, to tie you to the launcher when using
it. Kayaking with friends is a fun way to start the weekend. Hope to see you there.

MINI GOLF COURSE by Beverly Serpone
The mini-golf course arrived in sections on Friday (6/10) evening as promised by Joe Buckhorn, owner of MiniGolf, Inc., of Jessup, PA. Mr. Buckhorn was very pleased to have the many volunteers to assist with unloading
the truck and the assembly of the 18-holes. With his supervision, work went quickly and the course was
assembled by early afternoon.
(We were lucky that he made it to Alpine Lake at all….his GPS directed him from Sang Run Road through the
State Forest and onto Cranesville and West Cranesville Road. He had a difficult time making the tight U-turn
onto West Cranesville Road with the 25ft. box truck! And yes, he was provided with more accommodating
directions for his drive home.)
The Mini-Course-Committee, made up of Debbie Palank, Mike Kubina, Clark Sharpless and Beverly Serpone,
is happy to see the completion of the colorful and sturdy mini-course. Also, many thanks to Lorraine Hart for
generously passing on all of her research and notes and meeting with the committee. Her notes led us to Joe
Buckhorn and his company.
Work will continue on the course as members of the Beautification Committee make plans for landscaping.
Good work and many thanks to the employees of Alpine Lake Resort for prepping the site. Also, a big thank
you to all of the volunteers from Alpine Lake who made this wonderful addition to the Resort possible and a
reality. Hopefully it will be enjoyed by property owners, guests, family and friends for many years to come.

ALPINE ANNUAL CRAFT SHOW by Mary Bowers
Calling all Alpine Crafters...Have you been busy with a hobby this winter and spring or have extra items made
that you are wondering what you are ever going to do with them? Offer them up for sale at the Annual Craft
Show on Sept 3rd in the Lodge. Many interested buyers come out looking for unique items for themselves or as
Christmas gifts. Last year was very successful for 11 crafty Alpine folk so think about joining us this year! The
fee is minimal, covering advertising costs only. It is not too early to reserve a table. Please call Donna at
304-789-6369 or email [email protected] for more information.
BOAT LAUNCHING REMINDER by John Laing
There is one area, the boat area near the boathouse, authorized for launching and landing boats. Our lake shores
are sensitive areas and erosion is a continuing problem. Please do not launch or land boats from other areas.
FLYING THE AMERICAN FLAG by John Laing
If you are patriotic enough to fly an American flag, please fly it respectfully. As a reminder on flag etiquette: If
the flag is being used at a public or private estate, it should not be hung (unless at half-staff or when an allweather flag is displayed) during rain or violent weather. To place the flag at half-staff (or half-mast, on ships),
hoist it to the peak for an instant and lower it to a position half way between the top and bottom of the
staff. The flag is to be raised again to the peak for a moment before it is lowered. On Memorial Day, the flag is
displayed at half-staff from sunrise until noon and at full staff from noon to sunset.
ALPINE LEARNING PROGRAM by Norleen Hoadley
The Alpine Learning Program’s first field trip of 2016 will be on Tuesday, June 28th, to the Lavender Farm in
Accident, Maryland. The cost is $25 which includes lunch, tour and a lavender craft. A choice of three options
for lunch will be listed on the sign-up sheet at the Lodge. Mark which option you prefer. The last date for signup is Sunday, June 26th. We will meet at 10am in the Lodge parking lot to carpool to the Lavender Farm. Prepayment is required. Checks can be made to ALP Treasurer, George Evans. Place “ALP-Lavender” in the
memo line. Checks are the preferred method of payment. The cost is $25 per person. Lunches must be ordered
in advance, hence the need for pre-payment. Give your check to Shelley, Kay or Crystal at the front desk.
Payments are due by Sunday, June 26th. Reservations will be made ONLY for those who have prepaid!
TERRA ALTA FOOD BANK
There is an ongoing need to replenish supplies at our local food bank so please add your donations whenever
you can to help this worthy cause. There is a box inside the front foyer of the Lodge for your convenience.
Please continue to be generous in your giving.

GOLF COMMITTEE by Carl Donald, Chairman
The Golf Committee for the 2016 season was formed early this calendar year. The members are Trish Birch,
Treasurer, Jerry Edens, Chas Minor, and Carl Donald, Chairman. Gary Cox is our Board liaison.
Before the golf season commenced, we had separate meetings with the general manager, the golf manager, the
marketing director, and course superintendent. Early in the season, we were privileged to meet with Chip
McDonald. Chip is a property owner at Alpine, has done work on our golf course in the past, has prepared golf
courses throughout the U.S. for professional golfing events, and has remained a willing and able advisor to
Alpine Lake. The general manager and Gary Cox attended all of these meetings.
All of us who have responsibilities related to golf at Alpine want golf to be an attraction for property owners
and the public. Our goal is to make it a profitable amenity. However, for the second consecutive year, we have
had a very wet spring. Therefore, we have some “catching up” to do!
5th ANNUAL MUSIC FESTIVAL by Rich Nelson, Co-Chairman Marketing Committee
The deadline is fast approaching for the discounted $20 entrance fee. If you want to avoid the post-deadline
$25 charge, place your ticket order no later than 2nd July. Purchase your tickets at the front desk of the
Lodge, go to WVSummerMusic.com to purchase your tickets online, or call (304) 789-2481 Ext. 0 to purchase
your tickets over the phone and pick them up the day of the event!
PROPERTY OWNER’S COMMITTEE by Bernie and Birgit Stock
The Carry-In Picnic held at the Boathouse on 6/16, was well attended as over 60 PO's and guests enjoyed good
food, friends and lots of rain. The storm hit just before we ate, but the wind curtains saved us... mostly. We'll be
better prepared next time and listen to the prognosticators. Next month we'll be collecting school items (7/21)
at the Picnic. Stay tuned as to the things needed.
Food items continue to be collected in the blue box at the front entrance to the Lodge, so please keep on
giving. Aluminum cans (only) are still being accepted at the bin near the cart barn. Please proceed cautiously
when you deliver them.
Thanks to the Hoadleys for heading up the Solstice Party. Thanks to the Creamers for running the STROKERS
on Monday nights. Thanks to the folks who worked at the Boathouse last Friday and made the place "sparkle"
and thanks to all who take pride in OUR community by rolling up their sleeves and getting things done. There's
always lots to do.
Lots of activities in and around ALPINE, so read the FWIW, Shadowboxes, local media reports, etc., and wordof-mouth.
POC sponsored events coming up: Carry-in Picnic (7/21), YARD SALE (8/3,4,5,6), Labor Day Picnic (9/4),
and OKTOBERFEST (9/17,18). Fill in the spaces with FUN on and around the Campus.

of the Lodge. We meet on Thursday mornings at 8am.
SECURITY by Fuzzy Corum, Director of Security
Remember to watch your speed on the roads in Alpine Lake. Radar is being set up around the resort. All roads are
25 mph with the exception of the Lodge, Boathouse and beach which are 15 mph. Also, when entering the gate
and there are cars backed up, please do not go around cars on the right and do not go through the exit.

FROM MANAGEMENT & STAFF
Linette Sines – Interim General Manager
We have another exciting week in store at Alpine Lake!
Thursday night will be our next Open Mic Night at the Boathouse. The theme for this week will be “Love
Songs”. Remember, both performers and spectators are welcome, so BYOW (bring your own whatever), and
enjoy an evening of music.
Just a quick reminder that we will be hosting a Golf Tournament for Camp Dawson on Friday, so the course
will be busy – be sure to call ahead for a tee time if you plan to golf that day. We are also hosting the
Mountaineer Ladies Golf Group on Monday -so tee times will be limited that day as well.
Friday night is “Meet the Candidates Night” This is a great opportunity to ask the candidates questions before
our annual election. The forum will begin at 7pm in the Allegheny Room (lower level of the Lodge). I
encourage you to stop by SEASONS and enjoy dinner before the event. Don’t forget that SEASONS now has
5 gaming machines located in the upper portion of the lounge. Feel free to stop by and have a try at your luck.
The Annual Meeting will begin at 10am on Saturday in the main dining room. ALPUC will begin their
meeting at 9am. Be sure to come a little early to register and obtain your ballot. This year, the ballot is lengthy,
so we have made a preview available in the “Property Owner’s Only” section of the website. The Boathouse,
Boathouse Gazebo and the Beach Pavilion are all rented for private parties on Saturday and will be unavailable
for general property owner use.
On Sunday, be sure to check out the annual House Tour, sponsored by the Beautification Committee. Tickets
are available at the Front Desk. This committee has done a great job of sprucing up the front of the Lodge, and
I encourage you to help them fund future projects by purchasing a ticket. A portion of the proceeds will also go
to the Terra Alta East Preston Leo’s Club, sponsored by our local Lion’s Club.
If you have signed up for the Alpine Learning Program’s trip to Lavender Farms, please remember that you
must pay your registration fee and submit your lunch choice by this Sunday. For more information, contact
Norleen Hoadley at [email protected].
If you are looking for a way to keep fit, feel free to join a group of your fellow property owners who meet on
Tuesdays and Thursdays at 8am to do aqua aerobics in the pool. This is a free activity and all are welcome.
They use a pre-recorded CD to lead them in their exercises.
Lastly, with the new pavement on East Alpine Drive, it may be tempting for many owners to drive faster but
please remember that speed limits inside the property are 25mph (15mph near the lodge, boathouse and
beach). Security will be out enforcing these limits to help keep everyone safe.
ALPUC NEWS by Kim Mayne, General Manager
The Annual Meeting is here! We hope to see you all at 9am on Saturday, June 25th, at the Lodge for the
ALPUC Annual Meeting. We are excited to share information about accomplishments during the last year,
plans for the upcoming year, as well as share helpful information.
Kay Bayer will serve another 3 year term on the ALPUC Board. Board Members are: Jim Wachter, Dave
Tucker, Mike Kubina, Boris Nazaroff and Kay Bayer. Although no other member wished to run for Kay
Bayer’s expiring term this year, be thinking if you would be willing to serve next year as we’ll have two board
positions expiring.
Your ALPUC bill will be mailed out June 30th and will include information on backflow prevention. Please
feel free to contact our office if you have any questions.

ALPOA BOARD NEWS
BOARD OF DIRECTORS REPORT by Ginger Tucker, President
It’s summer at Alpine Lake and despite a brief rain shower members ushered in the solstice by attempting a
moonlight kayak/canoe float. The clouds hid the moon so they enjoyed snacks and comradery instead.
This is just one example of the activities at Alpine Lake. We updated another amenity on 11th June when the
mini-golf course was delivered. More than 30 volunteers quickly positioned and completed construction
within 3 hours. The mini-golf company representative said he had never had so many volunteers nor had it
ever gone together so quickly. Thank you volunteers, you know who you are! All property owners and their
guests (when the owner is present) play free while renters, motel guests and the public pay $2.50 for children
12 and under and $4 for adults and teens per day.
Many members have noticed the pool decking paint is peeling. Sherwin Williams is replacing the paint at no
cost with an epoxy designed for indoor pools with standing water. We will paint the decking during the fall
season as we will have to close the pool/Fitness Center for one week for the paint to cure properly.
We need to remind property owners that dogs (other than service dogs) are not permitted at the beach or picnic
areas around the Boathouse. We have authorized a dog swimming area off of Bluebell Drive and will be
erecting signs identifying the designated area.
The Board asks property owners to send letters to the Public Service Commission (PSC) regarding your
satisfaction/dissatisfaction with Preston Sanitation.
We approved the following new committee members and chairs:



Compliance:
o Marg Gearhart
o Teddy Cox, Chair
Finance:
o Randy Law, Chair
ECC
o Jim Rocchi
o Kurt Engel, Chair
Please plan to attend the Alpine Lake Fourth of July Picnic to be held on Monday 4th July at the Boathouse
from Noon to 3pm. Please bring a covered dish to share and participate in the golf cart decorating contest and
parade by reserving your golf cart at the pro shop. The parade starts promptly at 3pm from the Boathouse to
the Lodge. It will then be followed by a Golf Strokers’ Sparkler Scramble that starts at 3:30pm with play
commencing at 4pm. Come with your Patriotic Pride and celebrate!
We remind everyone about Prodigi’s broadband offer. We still need to have 250 homes interested to be a spur
off Route 7. Please notify Linette Sines if you are interested. We plan to have a table with Prodigi brochures
at the annual meeting.
