Don’t Miss the Fireworks & Band!
After the cold of winter, no one complains
about the heat of summer. June’s temperatures
tested us all, though.
Many days, the best place
to be was the pool; forecasters are predicting a
HOT summer – and
we’re just getting into the
really hot months. We’ll
all be seeing 90’s a whole
lot in the near future.
The Social calendar in
June included two events,
both geared to the Woodrun children. Two afternoons were declared Kids’
Game Days; on the first
day, the theme was Summer
Games & Crafts, the second
themed day was Let’s
Bake Cookies. On July 10,
the kids will enjoy Tye-Dye
Fun. Look for details on
the signs!
The Neighbors group
will not get together in
July; the next meeting will
be the second Tuesday of
August, the 12th.
Independence Day is
Friday, July 4. Have a
great holiday with your
family and friends. How
lucky we are to live in this
country, free of the constant conflict in so many
places in the world!
The Woodrun Fireworks will be on Saturday
night, July 5, starting
about 9 p.m. If you’ve
never seen this show, you
need to be there. It’s
spectacular! The Clubhouse grounds will be
packed with members and
their guests and the lake
will be packed with boats
full of people from up and
down the river, including
our members. There will
also be a band, Bill Brady
& the Tarheel Rhythm Band
at the festivities. Again,
check the sign at the
Guardhouse for details. A
last note about the fireworks: The fireworks are
breathtaking, but after the
show is over, watch the
lake: total darkness on the
water, except for the running lights of hundreds of
boats heading home.
Beautiful.
Woodrun condolences
are sent to Suzanne Parrott and her family due to
the death of her husband,
Scott, in June.
Have a great holiday!
Pool Notes
 If you’re a ‘pool person,’ you’ve noticed the new faces of our pool attendants. Welcome to them all! Jessica
Padgett is Pool Manager, and coordinates
everything: She plans work schedules
(and rearranges when necessary) and
keeps the pool and its area clean & organized. The attendants are Andrew Lambert, Holly Little, Rachael Raming, Carrie
Ridenhour, and Lauren Walker. One of
their main July jobs is checking pool
passes; please have yours ready to show.
If you show it one day, the next day may
be a different attendant who may also ask
to see it. Once all attendants know you,
you won’t have to worry about passes!
 Also new this summer at the pool is
the NABY (North Albemarle Baptist
Youth) Concession, managed by Todd
and Jennifer Kimrey. Woodrun members for twenty years, the Kimreys thank
everyone for the support they’ve gotten
and are “glad to be serving our community this way.” The concession’s normal
menu is prepackaged food and drinks.
On July 4 and 5, barbecue plates will
also be available (barbecue, beans, slaw,
chips) for $7, and popcorn will be sold
for $1/bag. All profits will go to the
church youth missions. The Kimreys
welcome any suggestions on improving
the concession (as well as complaints)!

Woodrun Notes
 The Woodrun Board of Directors publishes a monthly “Notes
from the Board” as an email and
as a handout at the mailbox area. If
you wish to be on the email list, call
Kathy in the Office.
 E-Mails: If you would like to
have updated Woodrun information e-mailed to you, please contact Kathy in the Office at
[email protected] and she’ll
add your email address to the
Woodrun group list.
 Actions without meetings: No
Board votes have been taken since
the June Board meeting.
 Slip renters: If your boat is
moored at one of the Clubhouse
docks, be sure to move it by 6:00
p.m. on the day of the fireworks,
which are currently scheduled for
Friday, July 5. A rain date has been
booked for Sunday, July 6. Home-
land Security will not OK our
permit unless all boats are gone.
 As of July 1, swimmers MUST
show a 2014 Pool Pass! This is
the BRIGHT ORANGE pass –
the bright green pass is last year’s
and is no longer valid. Write your
name and Lot Number on it.
Please, it’s not the pool attendants’ fault that they ask to see
your pass. They are told to ask –
and the reason? It ensures that
only members in good standing
may use our biggest amenity, the
pool. Until the 2014-2015 dues
are paid in full, a member will not
receive his/her passes or his/her
gate bar codes.
 Pool Aerobics Class: Tuesday,
July 1 heralded the first pool aerobics class of the year. If you are
interested, there’s no sign up, no
cost, no commitment. Come to
the pool at 10:00 a.m. on Mondays,
Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and/or
Thursdays to spend 30 to 45
minutes exercising in the pool.
Come when you can, as often as
you can, for a fun, informal, relaxed way to get your blood moving a little faster. If you miss a
day, don’t worry!
