West Nile Mosquito Found at Lake Kiowa East Beach
Cooke County and the
LKPOA have been working
together testing for the West
Nile virus and other mosquitoborne diseases since 2012. The
West Nile virus was detected
in a mosquito test sample
collected Tuesday, Aug. 9
in the East Beach area. The
testing process takes almost
a full week and we were just
notified of the results Aug. 16.
Further information regarding
the LKPOA’s prevention
program can be found on
our website (http://www.
lakekiowatx.com.
Use the Four D’s to defend
yourself and your family
against this virus by taking
the following precautions
when outdoors:
1. Dusk/Dawn are times of
the day you should try to stay
indoors. This is the time when
mosquitoes are most active.
2. Dress in long sleeves
and long pants when you’re
outside. For extra protection,
you may want to spray thin
clothing with repellent.
3. DEET is an ingredient
you need in your insect
repellent.
4. Drain standing water
in your back yard and
neighborhood - old tires,
flowerpots, and clogged rain
gutters. These are mosquito
breeding sites.
More information regarding
this virus can be found at
http://www.cdc.gov/westnile/
or by calling Toll Free 1-888963-7111.

Community Manager’s Report
The kids are back
in school, the days
are getting shorter,
and hopefully cooler
weather is headed
our way! We had a
great summer this
year, blessed by sufficient rainfall
that kept our lake levels up during the
majority of the prime boating season.
Speaking of boating, over 1100
people have studied our boating
rules, taken and successfully passed
our online required Boat Safety Test.
Our Lake Patrol has been on the
water much more this summer, and
have observed much safer boating
behaviors than in years past. Having
said that, all boat operators (members,
guests, and day visitors) must take and
pass the online test before piloting a
motorized watercraft on Lake Kiowa.
By taking the test, operators will learn
the rules unique and specific to Kiowa
to keep our lake safe and fun.
If you have not seen our new patio
addition at the Lodge, come on by and
have a snack or drink from our new
and exciting patio menus. The menu
features lots of new and revised items
and are made for sharing with family
and friends and are generally able to
be eaten without cutlery. The new
patio menu items will be prepared in
a different part of our kitchen, in an
effort to reduce the pressure off of
the existing cook line and allow us
to serve our guests inside. We will
be using lots of ice buckets to keep
beverages cold and have come up with
some new drink serving sizes to keep
you hydrated. There will be no glass
or china on the patio to prevent any
possibility of problems from breakage.
The patio was designed to be family
friendly for those West Beach goers,
but everyone still needs to be properly
covered and have footwear on when
on our patio. These are new, exciting
and uncharted times at the Lodge and
Donna and her team are working hard
to provide great service and products
to many more people on the patio.
Our Pro Shop is now operating with
the same point-of-sale system that is in
place at the Lodge and Front Gate, so
be prepared to show your membership
card if you want to charge any
merchandise or greens fees to your lot.
This system will allow the LKPOA
and Brown to better coordinate
revenues and charges between the two
organizations. Tee times are still made
through the current online system Chelsea Information Systems.
We have been trapping mosquitoes at
various locations around Lake Kiowa
all summer and collected lots of all
types of mosquitoes. Unfortunately
for us, the samples collected on
Aug. 9 came back with a mosquito
testing positive for the West Nile
virus. More information is posted on
our website and it will be updated
regularly as things change. Everyone
needs to double their efforts by
eliminating standing water and other
favorable habitat and protecting
themselves when outdoors during
mosquito activity times.

Kiowa Kares
Dear, dear friends,
A million “thank you” words would never be enough! Or,
to tell you each how much you mean to me and my family!
I have known some of you for many years and some just a
short time. But, no matter. Your friendship, prayers, love, care,
hugs and kisses are always in the top, middle and bottom of
my heart! I live away now and I miss you so much. In fact, if
the opportunity arises and it is in God’s plan, I would consider
coming back to Lake Kiowa. Meanwhile, God bless you all,
and thanks again.
I would like to share a poem I wrote a few years ago.
My Time
God gives us each a way to go,
Sometimes fast, sometimes slow,
Time to the front,
Time far behind,
To each his own,
In His own time!
We learn to laugh and cry and moan,
And sometimes we want to be alone,
And often we look to God above,
And thank Him for family, friends and love,
And hope when we come to life’s end,
We leave a light where we have been.
Love and God bless,
Dorothy Baskett
School's in session.
Please stop at bus stops.
Keep our kids safe.
To our Lake Kiowa friends,
Please join us as we celebrate
the 80th birthday of our mother,
June Cloud!

No gifts, please
Hosted by her children: Russell
and Gay Cloud, Peggy and Kevin
May and Rick and Wanda Cloud.
We are so touched by all the
prayers, thoughts and warm wishes
that were directed our way during
my recent cardiac episode. To all
our friends and acquaintances,
THANK YOU from the bottom
of my newly electrified heart. I’m
feeling as good as ever and, as of
Aug. 1, I was cleared to resume my
life as it was prior to this event.
God bless you all.

A Bit of Lake Kiowa History
Bill Turner, former LKPOA Board
of Directors president and long-time
resident, supplied this historical item.
In anticipation of his move to Lake
Kiowa, he was going through old
boxes in his attic and came across a
fragile, faded, brown page from a
47-year-old newspaper. He wanted
to share an article referring to Lake
Kiowa and the island therein.
The following text appeared in
Section D of the The Dallas Morning
News on Sunday, March 16, 1969 as
part of Jim Stephenson’s column:
“YOU’VE HEARD, no doubt,
of the ‘corporate castle’ that
Miss Penny Rich, president of
Pennsylvania International of
Dallas, is building on a wooded
island on Lake Kiowa near
Gainesville. It’ll have a moat and
drawbridge—even a dungeon—
but Miss Rich isn’t sure what use
she’ll make of the latter.
It’s interesting to note that the
island on which she’s building
wasn’t even being offered actively
for sale when she spotted it.
'The developer didn’t think
anyone would want it,’ she said.
Miss Rich ‘discovered’ the
island when she went to inspect
a lot she had purchased on Lake
Kiowa earlier, with the intention
of building a lakefront cottage
retreat for herself and her mother.
The rise of land in the lake covers
about an acre.”
Bill commented as follows: “I had
forgotten she [Miss Rich] once owned
the island. She never built on it but
instead had a ‘mansion’ on East Kiowa.
It has been made over so many times
that I don’t think it is recognizable but
I remember my mother used to always
take visitors by to look at it.”

KiowaQuiltBee
CommuniQue
A small group of members met on
Aug. 1 for our monthly quilt bee. Tari
Dargar, a newer resident and avid
sewer, joined us.
Sharon Catlett led our discussion of
the raffle quilt ticket sales which have
been going very well and should raise
a sizeable donation for our Indian
Creek Volunteer Fire Department.
All proceeds will go to our fire
department.
Many of our members participated
in a quilt retreat in Sunset, Texas
during July with other quilters from
North Texas. Everyone who attended
raved about the accommodations
and encouraged everyone to take
part in the next one. There was good
food, generous facilities and great
friendships formed. Everyone enjoyed
sharing new ideas and unique skills.
Another retreat is being planned for
February 16-20, 2017 so mark your
calendars.
Sew day on July 22 saw many
“Care Bears” completed and turned
over to Debbie Alexander to be sent
to the organization that distributes
them to children being treated for rare
diseases.
Our next Bee is Sept. 5 at 7 p.m. and
our sew day will be Sept. 16. We meet
at the Lodge to work on our individual
projects for a day of friendship,
sharing and lunch. Come for the day
or any part of the day between 9 a.m.
and 4 p.m.

Jennifer Mason brought the University of
Texas (UT)-themed quilt that she finished

Let’s hope that
the dog days of
summer are over
and we will soon
be getting some
cool breezes. For
those of you who
have been missing
Chapel and just
trying to stay
cool, now is the
time to get into
the fall schedule
and put Chapel on your calendar. We
have missed your presence during the
summer. So put Chapel on your mustdo list.
For all you singers, Chapel choir will
begin rehearsing on Monday at 8 a.m.
at the Lodge beginning Sept. 12. See
you there. We have a great director,
Glen Wilson and a great accompanist,
Shirley O’Dell. They make us sound
great, but we need your help.
The next Quarterly Meeting of
Chapel is on Monday Sept. 12 at
6:30 p.m. You will not be disappointed
if you attend this month, as Dorothy
Baskett will be doing her version of
Minnie Pearl. Those of you who have
seen Dorothy do “Minnie” will be sure
to be there. Those of you who have not
seen her, you must come. Also Kathy
Kirby from Stanford House will
be in attendance to inform us of the
opportunities for us in the Gainesville
facility. It is a time to get an update
on what your Chapel has been doing.
Bring a dish to share and be there by
6:15 p.m.

GriefShare Starts This September
GriefShare is a grief
support group that offers
help and encouragement
after the death of a spouse,
child, family member or friend.
GriefShare is nondenominational
featuring biblically based concepts to
aid you in healing from your grief. It
runs in 13-week cycles, meeting once
a week using video seminars, small
group discussion and a workbook to
help you as you cope with your loss.
These sessions are “self-contained”
so while it is beneficial to attend all of
the sessions, you do not have to attend
in sequence. You may join at any time
during each 13-week cycle and make
up sessions as it begins again.
The first session of this
GriefShare cycle will be
held Monday Sept. 12 at
2 p.m. The sessions will
run each Monday through the first
Monday of December. We will meet
at the Lake Kiowa Lodge.
Come join others in a safe and
welcoming environment that will help
you with the healing that is essential
in the grieving process. Please contact
me at (940) 395-3405 to let me know
of your interest in attending or if you
have any questions.

Kiowa Genealogy Group Begins a New Year
Men’s Bible Study Conversation Group
Our weekly Men’s Conversation
Group with a Biblical focus meets
Sept. 7 at 8 a.m. in the Lodge Southwest
Room.
Mark this date on your calendar
and plan now to be part of this group.
Feel free to invite other guys to come
with you. Remember that this is a
conversation group with a Bible focus,
the reading serving as the backdrop
to ignite the conversation and keep us
focused and challenged. We are going
to begin with a very readable book, one
of the classic theological books.
I am a retired United Methodist
lead pastor and will bring the Biblical
correlations and present-day issues for
conversation that relate to the chapters
we read. Check out the summary
below. While you will not have to
read in advance of the group starting,
you can get the book now and read in
advance if that interests you. The cost
of the book is $11 and you can get a
copy at our first gathering, unless you
get one from me before that.
This group talks about life as we live
it today and has a lively conversation.
We recognize that folks cannot always
be present each week as life is being
lived out all around us, so guys
come when they can and share in the
journey.
The new book for September is “Life
Together” by Dietrich Bonhoeffer. He
stands as one of the most influential
theologians of the 20th century. In
1935 he took charge of an “illegal”
underground seminary where he
shared a home with 25 pastors. “Life
Together” is Bonhoeffer’s inspiring
account of their unique fellowship as
they sought to foster and live in an
authentic Christian community.
Imprisoned and hanged by the Nazis
near the end of World War II for plotting
to assassinate Hitler, Bonhoeffer stands
as a witness for faith and courage
in the midst of persecution and an
impassioned witness of the essential
calling for Christians to do life together.
Bonhoeffer reminds us, “We belong to
one another only through and in Jesus
Christ.”
Do you long for authentic Christian
community? A place to belong? Our
lives are filled with many things, but we
hunger for the goodness of life together

Summer is fast coming
to an end. Hope you were
able to stay cool while you
researched your ancestries.
The Kiowa Genealogy
Group (KGG) stayed
cool during our summer workshop.
We began with a great lunch and a
lot of fun conversations. After lunch
we moved to the LDS church where
Linda Jonas spoke with us explaining
how she began her genealogy career.
WOW, we are so lucky to have such
a knowledgeable genealogist in our
midst! She will be one of our speakers
later in the year. We were then able to
go into the computer lab and work on
research where we received assistance
from Linda Jonas, Darlene Denton,
Carol Beck and Cindy Barnett. Thank
you, ladies!!
Jackie Gary is working on updating
the surname research list. This list
contains names being researched by
the KGG members. Please contact her
at [email protected] if you need
a list. If you have names on the list,
you will need to add the state/states
you are investigating per surname.
Please respond ASAP so she can
update and distribute the final listing
in September.
Darlene Denton also gave us an
update on the digitalization of Cooke
County records. The
digitization is to begin
in the next few weeks.
Volunteers will be needed
for half-day increments.
Darlene is our contact for
the project. More information will be
coming soon.
As we begin the new year on
Sept. 22 at 1 p.m. at the Lodge, the
KGG will give you a chance to
share your summer finds and any
instrumental information found in
your research. The program will be
a Show and Tell by those attending
so join us for a fun time going down
memory lane.
The group meets on the fourth
Thursday of each month at 1 p.m. at
the Lodge. We have a year planned
with genealogist speakers and field
trips to local libraries. Carol Beck,
Jackie Gary and Cathy Farquhar
will be co-leaders for this group. We
invite anyone interested in genealogy
research no matter the level of your
research.
If you need a gate pass, you can
contact Jackie Gary at jandjgary2@
airmail.net or Cathy Farquhar at cathy.
[email protected]. We hope to see
you there!

Local Theater
Lee Skinner is Aunt Abby in Arsenic and Old Lace
Lake Kiowa’s own Lee Skinner
has been cast in another iconic role
at Butterfield Stage. Butterfield’s
opening production for the 2016/2017
season is “Arsenic and Old Lace,”
the hilarious theatrical comedy made
famous by the movie version that
starred Cary Grant.
Alfred Weser plays Mortimer
Brewster,
a
soon-to-be-married
newspaperman and author known for
his arguments against marriage, visits
the old Brewster home to share his
new found love with his two maiden
aunts. Lee will play Abby, one of two
aunts who have an unusual hobby –
killing old men and burying them in
the basement!
Aunt Abby and her sister Martha, to
be played by Melinda Butler, have a
long-standing need to carry out their
hobby. Once discovered by nephew
Mortimer, their entire world, and his
as well, turns into a hilarious and
sometime confusing romp.
Directed by Craig Hertel, long-time
Butterfield actor and director, this
show will delight the audiences with a
continuous flow of surprises, hilarity
and just plain fun. The play winds
through a twisting set of circumstances
with a long list of quirky characters
including other relatives, police and
even a crazy bugle-blowing brother
named Teddy who is in charge of
burial duties.
Lee Skinner continues her masterful
acting as Abby and, along with sister
Martha, tries cleverly to avoid detection
while attempting to humorously
distract nephew Mortimer from their
ghoulish hobby. Lee is joined by a cast
of 13 other Butterfield players in this
twisting and turning play that ends
with surprises and confusion alike.
Lee is a long-time actress who
has performed in many Butterfield
productions. Her role in “Driving Miss
Daisy” will not soon be forgotten and
her self-written, one-woman show
playing Katherine Hepburn will stand
out as her crowning achievement. Her
acting skills are perfect for the role
of Abby as she brings this character
to life winding her way through the
sometimes confusing, but always
focused role as one of the Brewster
family members who have the long
history of strange behavior.
The production opens on Friday,
Sept. 16 and continues on Saturday,
Sept. 17 followed by three
performances on Sept. 23, 24 and
a Sunday matinee on the Sept. 25.
Tickets go on sale the first day of
September. Tickets are now on sale
for the five Main Stage productions
including “Arsenic and Old Lace.”
Season tickets are only $50 and save
you $25 from the single ticket price of
$15 per production.
Tickets can be purchased by calling
the box office at (940) 665-1284
on Monday through Thursday from
10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Both single and
season tickets can also be purchased
online through our website at www.
butterfieldstage.org; click on tickets.

Texas Hold'em Poker
The poker group looked more
like the party group in July with
plenty to celebrate and lots of
cake. Debbie Moody celebrated
her 60th birthday with a delicious
homemade carrot cake. Lisa
Bohannon raised the fun evening
to a new level with her accessories and
singing. Paul Mason also celebrated
his birthday with a cake. Finally, Tom
and Elaine Blackwell celebrated their
56th wedding anniversary and the
group enjoyed even more cake!
Attendance was great all month and
there were even several new players
of various ability levels. Whether you
are a beginner or experienced player,
you will always be welcomed and
encouraged to play.
There were only three notable hands
this month. Scott Moody was dealt a
straight flush, Steve Jackson revealed
four aces and John Springer showed
four queens.
Winners this month were: 7/1
Tom Nardecchia and Barbara Fox;
7/4 Lance Deal, Ed Thompson, Jay
Thompson, and Scott Moody; 7/6
Tom Blackwell and Scott Moody; 7/8
Gloria Sullo and Nona Tipps; 7/13
Jennifer Mason and Jimmy Stewart;
7/15 Brant Buck and Tom Blackwell;
7/20 Paul Pucci and Dennis Horvath;
7/22 D Noble and Pat Mead;
7/27 Jan Dalton and Glenda
Buck.
End-of-Month Tournament
winners on 7/29 were Randy
Howell, Tom Nardecchia,
Brant Buck and Barbara Fox.
Thank you to Nascoga Federal
Credit Union, Marvin’s Pest Control,
Premiere Real Estate and the Lodge for
generously donating the prizes every
month to the winners. In addition, we
had prizes donated for the July 4th
tournament by Basey’s Roofing.
If you are interested in playing a
game of Texas Hold ‘em, come to the
Lodge on Wednesdays and/or Fridays
at 6:45 p.m. There is no cost to join
the poker group or play a game. New
players of all experience levels are
always welcome!
Jennifer Mason
Scott Moody turned up a straight
flush.
Lisa Bohannon (L) helped Debbie
Moody celebrate her 60th birthday.
Paul Mason also celebrated his
birthday.
Tom and

Friends of the Lodge News
Fall is quickly approaching and we
are all looking forward to some cooler
temperatures. We hope you enjoyed the
community dances that we provided
this summer. A huge thank you to
Clint Sturgeon and David Moore for
providing our dancing tunes and we
thank all who attended.
Friends of the Lodge (FOL) is
bringing back the popular Golf Cart
Scavenger Hunt followed by a dance
in September. Join us at the Lodge on
Saturday, Sept. 10 at 4:30 p.m. for the
start of the scavenger hunt followed
by dinner. The Lodge will be serving
BBQ sandwiches with two sides. A
cash bar will be available. Dancing
will follow with music provided by
Churchill Audio DJ. The cost for these
events will be $15 per person. If you
attend only the dance, then admission
will be $5. Mark your calendars and
don’t miss out on this fun event. We
do need a count of those wanting to
participate in the scavenger hunt or
dinner, so please reserve your spot.
Reservations can be made by calling
Lynn Keckonen (972) 742-5813 or
email [email protected].
FOL is hosting a new event in
October, our first Fall Festival at
the Lodge on Oct. 29. From 4:30 to
6:30 p.m. there will be carnival-type
activities for our kids and grandkids to
enjoy along with two bounce houses,
a pumpkin patch for photo ops and, of
course, a contest for the best costume.
The Lodge will have food and drink
available for purchase. From 6:30 to
7 p.m. in the south parking lot we
will host a Trunk or Treat, a version
of trick or treating where children
solicit candy and other goodies, not
from your house, but from your car
trunks in a style similar to tailgating.
Obviously, to make this a successful
event, we will need volunteers willing
to provide candy or other goodies. We
hope this will be a fun way to celebrate
the Halloween season for young and
old alike and the beginning of a new
tradition at Lake Kiowa. Please plan
to come and join us.
Holidays will be here before we
know it. FOL and the Lodge will again
sponsor the New Year’s Eve Dinner and
Dance. The theme this year is “New
Year’s Eve, A Night to Remember Black and White at Midnight.” In the
past, FOL has surpassed itself each
year in decorations and thus has set
the bar very high for anyone willing
to take on the responsibility for this
celebration. We hope you will support

Indian Creek VFD Auxiliary
The closing of Shabby Chic is old
news, but we want to let everybody
know that last month we wrote a
check to the ICVFD in the amount of
$6823 for the purchase of many items
on an updated wish list provided to
us by the fire department. The twelve
items range in price from $30 each
up to $1900 for a grant match and
most everything qualifies as small
equipment and tools. Given space
constraints, we won’t list these items
here, but we are happy to share it with
you if you will contact any of the
Auxiliary board members.
This same wish list contains a
couple of high-dollar items that we
would love to help ICVFD procure so
our fundraising efforts continue. First
up is the Magic Show on Nov. 12 and
we are so excited about this event! The
team of magicians is excellent and
they will keep you repeating “How’d
they do that?” all evening long. The
ticket price is $20 each and we’ll let
you know as soon as they are available
for purchase.
Also in November is the annual bake
sale. As usual this will take place the
Sunday prior to Thanksgiving, which
is Nov. 20 this year. This is a winwin situation: we raise money for our
fire department from the sale of the
best treats Lake Kiowa bakers have
to offer and you get to remove some
Thanksgiving meal prep stress because
you’ll be buying your desserts.
On another fundraising front, the
Auxiliary has a “secret Santa” out
there among you. We thank this
person for the regular monthly check

Lodge Pavilion
See details on page 2.
On Sept. 17, the Indian Creek
Volunteer Fire Department will be
hosting our annual Fish Fry and
Auction fundraiser at the Lake Kiowa
Lodge and Pavilion. In order to
provide the quality fire and medical
service that our fire district residents
have come to expect, we are tasked
with coordinating fundraisers like
these to financially support our
operations. At present, over 90%
of our annual budget is provided by
donations and fundraising efforts.
ICVFD is not a department paid for
by the Lake Kiowa POA, nor by
government agencies like the State of
Texas or federal government. And we
are not a taxing fire district like you
would typically get in a town or city.
It’s pretty simple. Our funds, for the
most part, come from hard work with
fundraisers and from your annual,
tax-deductible donations. With all of
this said, it is extremely important
that you, your family and your
Senior Care
of North Texas
friends come out to our fundraiser on
Sept. 17!
Each year, this event gets bigger
than the previous one. Food is cooked
on site under the direction of Mike
Merolla, and served fresh to your plate
by our volunteers and firefighters. And
I don’t want to get you too excited,
but due to generous donations from
our sponsors, there will be an “open
bar” for those who have purchased
meal tickets. These tickets can be
purchased at the door, or in advance
by contacting any ICVFD Auxiliary
member.
Once you’ve filled yourselves with
mouth-watering food, relax, socialize
and peruse the dozens of silent auction
items that have been generously given
to us to help our cause. The names
of our donors are countless, but as
I’m sure you have seen in the past,
there are often high-quality and very
valuable items to bid on in the silent
auction. We also have some higher

casting your ballot by using the back of the fish fry ticket,
which will be collected on Sept. 17 at the fundraiser. The

profile items that will be auctioned off,
live! Cash, checks, antique coins and
gold bars will be accepted as forms of
payment. But, if you happen to forget
your treasure chest, credit cards will
be accepted as well (though they do
charge us a percentage to process the
transactions).
The event has far too much to sum up
in this short article. All I can suggest
is that you come out and support our
volunteer fire department that supports
all of us! Everyone involved—from
the support members, to the ICVFD
Auxiliary, to our firefighters, to our
fire chief—all are volunteers and
everything we do is completely
voluntary! All of our members
provide these services and equipment,
essentially, for free. Just take a short
moment to think. If we didn’t have
any funding to purchase equipment,
supplies or gas, what would we have?
And how could we help you when you
need us most? Please come support

GOT ‘ER DONE!
Your Lake Kiowa Kiwanis Club
members have completed another
summertime project at Callisburg
Elementary. This time, the Callisburg
Elementary PTO joined with Kiwanis
to fund and build a new playground
for the children in the younger grades.
Combined with the Outdoor Activities
Center we built last year, the kids now
have a fun and safe place to play, and
a place to go to cool off.
This project took about 75 manhours and 49 bags of concrete! (I don’t
know when you last lifted an 80-pound
bag of concrete, but it will make you
question your decision-making when
you do!) Pictured are the stages of
completion of the playground as they
occurred and some of the members
who helped. If you see one of your
neighbors, give him a special thanks
for his work for the kids. As always,
some helped who were not available
for “picture time,” so it will be OK
to say thanks to any Kiwanian you
know. Obviously, these pictures tell
the story of our accomplishment very
dramatically from the old to the new,
but there is no way to picture the
dedication these guys have to make
sure the kids in our area have a little
better life.
A lot of these same people help
maintain the Lake Kiowa playgrounds
as well. Let us know if you see any
needed maintenance at any of the
playgrounds. Current contact numbers
are kept on our page on the Lake
Kiowa website.
The completed playground!
Our aluminum can collection centers
are one of the ways we help fund our
projects. If you are a weekender, bring
those cans from home! We have two
collection centers – one is a caged
trailer near the fire station and driving
range. The other is a small fenced area
near the intersection of Iriquois Dr. E.
and Kiowa Dr. E. THESE ARE NOT
DUMPING AREAS! Please dispose
of your trash and solid waste through
the standard processes. The can
collections are to help the kids, not
provide lazy people a place to dump.
Even if you are not up to tackling
summertime
building
projects,
Kiwanis still has lots of fun things to
which you can contribute. Come to
a meeting on either the first or third
Thursday of the month and we’ll buy
your dinner while you learn how much
fun you can have while helping our
area children have a little better life.

submit their art from traditional to ‘far
out’—two- or three- dimensional—it’s
all welcome if it’s visual. Sculpture,
pottery, textile work, photography,
wood carving and a multitude of
mediums are on deck already.
The Great Outdoors Fall Art
Exhibition will be downtown
Gainesville in the Historic Santa Fe
Depot Museum located at 605 E.
California St. The show is free to the
public and runs from Sept. 15-25.
GAVA and the Morton Museum
of Cooke County are the ‘producers’
of the exhibition. However, local
businesses have stepped up and
contributed to the prizes. Over $2000
in cash awards will be presented at the
Sept. 15 reception and awards. This
special evening is the perfect time to
meet the artists and hear the stories
behind their work. So join us from
6 until 9 p.m. at the Santa Fe Depot
Museum for art, artists, libations and
nibbles. Much of the entered art will
be for sale. There will also be The
Art Exchange where more original art
not in the show will be available for
purchase.
For artists who would like to
participate, art will be collected
on Sept. 10-12 at the Santa Fe
Depot Museum. Entry forms and
more detailed information are
available on the GAVA website gainesvilleareavisualarts.org or by
contacting me at joeconnerdesigns@

Kiowa Woman’s Club News
Message From the President ...
Dear Ladies,
Summer at Lake Kiowa is fabulous!
With all the boating, swimming,
picnics and outdoor activities, we
know why we live here. This is the
MOST wonderful place.
With September we start new
beginnings. Vacations are over, or at
least winding down. Grandchildren
are back in school, so we reclaim our
houses and the company is on their
way home.
You think it is time to relax, but
no, it’s time for the first club meeting
Sept. 8 at 10:30 a.m.
And what a fun time we are
planning!
We start with new beginnings at the
Lodge.
There is a new Lodge manager,
Donna Chafin; a new chef, Teotlahuilli
Guadarrama (she said we could call
her Teo, thank goodness); and we are
so thankful to have Penny at the front
desk to keep us all straight and calm.
Now the stage is set, so let’s start
our club’s new beginnings.
The first act will headline Lezlie
MacElroy as she presents the new
yearbook with all club members
listed. Terry Conaway has our budget
ready and Julie Minter has the main
attraction lined up.
Teo has a delicious lunch planned
and Carol Jacobsen with her group is
standing by to take your reservation.
The players all know their lines.
We will be waiting to start when
you arrive.
Hugs,
Jayne Sweet

Game Night
FAVORITE DAVE TANNER
RETURNS TO KICK OFF YEAR
In keeping with our
theme “Life Is Not a Dress
Rehearsal,” Dave will
describe “The Setting”
like no other can with his
program “Texas Attitude.”
To quote his website:
“This is Dave’s most
requested program. Dressed
as every proper Long Tall
Texan should be, and singing
Texas songs literally from A
to Z, Dave charts the growth
and development of our
unique Texas perspective
on the world. With tales of
the Alamo, Apaches, and
“yes” Aggies (and that’s just
the “A”s!), Dave reflects
the pride both native and
adoptive Texans feel in our Lone Star State.”
We hope you’ll make plans to join us as we as celebrate the beginning
of another exciting year with our club. With Dave you know it will be
fun!
KWC officers host the meeting.

1. Does it seem that our world is
upside down?
2. What is meaningful in this life?
3. How are we as Christians to enjoy
this life in an upside-down world?
Tricia will use the book “Ecclesiastes
and Song of Songs: Wisdom’s
Searching and Finding” by Kathleen
Buswell Nielson to guide our study.
We will find answers to our questions
as we learn together. Penny has copies
of the book available to purchase.
Come join us for an in-depth study
of the true meaning of life as it is
presented in God’s Word through the
book of Ecclesiastes.

Garden & Nature
Responsibilities
2016-2017
After a hot and dry summer, it is
time to prepare for changing seasons
in our gardens and in nature. The
Garden & Nature Department resumes
our meetings on the second Tuesday
of the month, beginning on Tuesday,
Sept. 13, and continuing through May
2017.
Jaqui Osborn-Stewart will speak
about adding color to the garden in
fall and winter. Susan Hair is our
hostess at her home at 1300 Kiowa Dr.
E. Our social time will begin at 9:30
a.m., with the meeting starting no
later than 10 a.m. As always, please
carpool when possible to minimize
the parking spaces needed.
We are looking forward to a
fun schedule, which appears in
the KWC directory. Several field
trips are planned that are within
reasonable distance and travel time,
hopefully enabling more people to
participate. Our planned speakers are
knowledgeable professionals with
significant experience. And we are
continuing our tradition of sharing
a light breakfast that we all help
to provide throughout the meeting
schedule.
New to our monthly update in the
CommuniQué will be a monthly
summary of gardening activities
that should occur in the month.
Additionally, we will highlight a
plant each month that is suitable for
use in the landscape in our area. As
information becomes known about
related events in our area, we will
highlight them also.
We welcome your input on topics
of interest to you! We look forward
to sharing information about our
beautiful area throughout the year.

Here are this month’s tasks for
the garden:
Add new transplants or divide
existing plants such as asters,
rudbeckia and mums for fall color and
lilies, coneflowers, daisies and other
perennials for spring bloom;
Plant
cool-season
vegetable
transplants
such
as
broccoli,
cauliflower and cabbage and seeds for
root crops like beets and carrots;
Spread wildflower seed in prepared
beds;
Plant any needed warm season
grasses quickly to enable roots to
develop before frosts and freezes
begin;
Prune trees and shrubs as needed
to shape them and remove dead
branches;
Add organic material to vegetable
gardens;
Be alert for rose rosette disease,
which has swept through North
Texas. Every expert recommends
removal of affected plants to prevent
further spread of the airborne mites.
As yet, no known treatment exists to
eliminate this systemic disease once it
occurs in a plant. Put all plant parts in
plastic trash bags and set them out for
pickup;
Also watch for aphids, powdery
mildew, and fungal diseases and treat
as recommended;
Look for fall web worms. If
reachable, remove branch tips and
place in plastic bags for trash pickup.

Plant of the month:
Fall Aster (Aster oblongifolius,
recently
reclassified
to
Symphyotrichum oblongifolium);
Grows 1 to 3 feet tall, branches
frequently, with lower parts that may
become woody and turn brown by the
end of the growing season;
Multiplies by seed and underground
rhizomes, can become a large clump 3
feet wide or more.
Blooms from September to
November in North Texas, with
numerous daisy-like flowers of very
small yellow disk florets, surrounded
by many lavender-blue ray florets.
Does best in full sun and will
tolerate partial or dappled sun. Does
very well in calcareous or sandy soils;
most soils are well tolerated. Needs
good drainage.
Will need supplemental water
during first growing season, then will
thrive with existing rainfall. It is very
drought tolerant.
Nectar and larval source for bees
and butterflies. Dry foliage after
bloom provides cover to winter birds.
Prune at beginning of spring.
BOOK
REVIEW
Our first book review will be on
Friday, Oct. 7 at the home of LaQuita
Barton, 135 Hogan Dr. E. Social time
begins at 10 a.m. followed by the
review at 10:30 a.m.
Jo Brannan will review “Water
from my Heart” by Charles Martin,
a breath-taking novel of love and
redemption. Charlie Finn had to grow
up fast. Living alone by age 16, highly
intelligent, he earned a life-changing
scholarship to Harvard where he
learned to survive and thrive on the
outskirts of privileged society.
We hope you will join us in early

Lake Kiowa Angler & Conservation Club
As you are reading
this submittal to
the CommuniQué,
we should have the
results from the
ballots for the proposed assessment
addressing dredging of nine coves of
the lake, a bridge over number three
low water crossing and funding of
future lake maintenance. These are all
important items that could improve
our community. It will be up to the
voters to decide if we take on these
important tasks or to disregard the
need for another day. If we disregard,
we must understand that at some
point we will have to take on these
tasks. You must ask yourself what is
the answer for providing access to
the north end of the lake in inclement
weather and how are we to pay for
long-term maintenance of our lake?
There are many intelligent folks in
our community. Let’s all step up to
the plate and come up with a viable
solution and not ignore these issues.
As a community we must take care
of our lake to maintain its existence
for years to come. The question still
exists: Can we afford to continue to
do nothing for our biggest asset, Lake
Kiowa?
The Angler & Conservation Club
would like to remind you that we have
our annual fundraiser fish fry coming
up on Sept. 3. Food service will begin
at 6 p.m. and live music and festivities
will end at 10 p.m. We have a face
painter for the children. Auction items
include a two-person bass buggy,
wooden glider, guided fishing trips on
Lake Kiowa, a sunset wine and cheese
cruise, a fish fry catered by Backyard
Bayou, November NASCAR tickets
for two and more. We are also having
a liquor raffle and several other
fundraising games. As always, any
donations you might be able to help us
with would be great. Cash donations
are also acceptable. I am looking
forward to seeing all of you there for
another memorable event.
The lake has dropped a few inches
in the past month and temperatures
are high. As water temperatures rise,
the fish become less active. We have
seen a few floating fish around the
shoreline, but not in enough numbers
to concern us. Most likely these fish
have underlying conditions that are
exacerbated by hot water temperatures
causing them to perish. The good news
is we are in September and the lake
is mostly full. No sign of unwanted
algae or grasses anywhere in the lake
and fall is right around the corner.
Your club held a bass tournament
on July 23. That morning brought a
new competitor—Gidget Heiman.
She wants to learn to fish and compete
with us so she bought a boat, showed
up and the rest is history. Gidget had to
overcome many obstacles to bring in
her catch. However, she made it to the
weigh-in and succeeded in catching
fish. Way to go, Gidget!
We can’t wait to see you at the
next tournament. The results of this
tournament were as follows. Third
place went to Jordan Grant with a

MGA General Meeting and Playday
Saturday, August 13, 2016
On Saturday Aug. 13, the Men’s
Golf Association (MGA) met at the
Lodge. Craig Lamkin called the
meeting to order at 8 a.m.
Craig gave an update on Bryan
Brown’s course condition report.
There will be one last core aeration
of the greens this year and it will take
place near the end of August. It has
been decided that the area behind the
#6 tee box and behind the #13 green
will be changed back to rough area.
For a full report, see Bryan’s write up
on page 37.
Craig let the MGA members know
that the board will be looking for new
board members for 2017 and 2018
(2-year term). If interested in being a
board member, contact Craig Lamkin,
John Seefeldt or me.
In an attempt to educate all golfers,
Brown McCrory announced there
will be a write-up each month in the
CommuniQué about “Rules of Golf.”
Each month a different topic will be
chosen and written about that will
explain a particular rule. Should be
good stuff!
John Seefeldt reported we have 475
members, with 314 in the hole-in-one
contest. As of this writing, there have
been five holes-in-one for the year.
We had 97 golfers for the playday
and the format was a “Hot Seat Irish
Scramble.” The results were: 1st Gerald Smith, Brian Ansay, Keith
Wilson and Bob Bergbower (127);
2nd - Randy Romines, Jim Fox, John
Nash and George Gibson (128); 3rd
- Isaac Andrews, Jay Houk, Greg
Gotses and Ward McCain (128); 4th Jim Cicon, R. Johnson, Ron Metcalfe
and Albert Arronté (128); 5th - Mark
Gillings, Chase Grant, Jay Titus and
Larry Wade (128); 6th - Joe Dorman,
Mark Metzler, Sean Lonergan and
Mike McCain (130); 7th - R. David,
Larry Gingerich, Ronny Young and
Scott Moody (131).
Upcoming MGA events for the
remainder of year are: Sept. 10 –
Playday, two-man scramble A/Bs
and C/Ds; Sept. 16-18 - Men’s Club
Championship Tournament; Oct. 1, 2
- Member/Member Tournament; Oct.
8 – Playday, Devils Game 6-6-6; Nov
12 – Playday, Wheel of Fortune Blind
Draw Scramble. Dec. 10 – Playday,
Rotor’s Revenge.
Submitted by:
David Verhaert
1st - Gerald Smith, Brian Ansay, Keith Wilson and Bob Bergbower
(127).
2nd - Randy Romines, Jim Fox, John Nash and George Gibson (128).

DID YOU KNOW ...
3rd - Isaac Andrews, Jay Houk, Greg Gotses and Ward McCain (128).
Craig Lamkin (L)
congratulates
Gerald Smith
on his hole-in-one.
That Rule 6-6 in the "Rules of Golf" says that when you play in a
competition you’re only responsible for the gross score on each individual
hole? You’re not responsible for the addition to determine your total score
or your total score at all. All you have to insure, regardless of who kept
score, is that your gross score for each individual hole is correct. Once
you are sure that the gross score for each individual hole is correct, you
and the marker, the person who kept the score, must both sign the card and
turn it in to the committee in charge of the competition. The committee is
responsible for the addition of scores and the application of any handicap.
This includes the determination and addition of Stableford points in a
Stableford competition. The consequences of not following this procedure
are twofold. At best, if you return a score for any hole higher than actually
taken, the score as returned stands. At worst, if you return a score for any
hole lower than actually taken, you are disqualified. The only exception to
being disqualified is if you return a score lower than actually taken because
you failed to include one or more penalty strokes that, before returning your
scorecard, you did not know you had incurred. You are not disqualified in
that case, but you incur the penalty prescribed by the applicable rule and an
additional penalty of two strokes for entering the wrong score for that hole.
The exception does not apply when the applicable penalty you incurred
is disqualification from the competition. Bottom line? As our friendly
PGA professional always tells us, put your gross score in the box for each
individual hole and you can’t go wrong.

The summer heat has
made a big difference
in
our
playday
participation.
On
July 20 there were
only 19 who came out to
play from the yellow tees. The
July 27 playday brought out 20
participants who competed from the
silver tees. Our August scramble was
played from the yellow tees, Florida
scramble (aka Step Aside), and 38
players participated. The Aug. 10
playday had 22 ladies who played the
nine even holes.
At the monthly meeting, the
Treasurer’s report showed an
ending bank balance as of July 31
at $4,799.01. Earmarked funds total
$513.87. Our membership stands at
260. Gay Enright shot a 97 and was
presented a “Broke 100” pin. Way to
go, Gay!
Lake Kiowa plans to host the
Central Texas Golf Association on
Sept. 21. Golf carts and breakfast
items are requested from members to
assist in the success of this tournament
fundraiser. Danette Morrison is our
representative for Central, so please
contact her if you can help with a cart
or breakfast item.
Our
Club
Championship
Tournament will be held Sept. 23-25.
The tournament committee made up
of Lori Brindle, Janice Richey, Sharon
James and Gay Enright are planning
this tournament.
Kathy
Reed
reported
that
preparations are well underway for the
charity tournament benefiting Cooke
County United Way to be held on Oct.
8. The dinner, silent auction and live
auction on Oct. 7 is being planned
by Angie Hare and her United Way
committee. An Italian buffet with a
wine and beer bar are on the menu.
“Rolling Thru the Decades” with
music ranging from the 40s through
the 2000s is the theme of Girls Night
Out on Sept. 20. Expect to see some
creativity with the decorations;
each table will represent a different
decade of music. Lots of your fellow
Lake Kiowans will be providing
the entertainment for this fun-filled
evening.
Filling divots and repairing pitch
marks need to be a part of your golfing
routine. Please do your part to help
maintain our golf course.
The monthly scramble, meeting and
lunch will be on Sept 7. Ladies, come
out and enjoy the fun.

The Lake Kiowa Women’s Golf
Association and the Cooke County
United Way are partnering for
health! Cooke County United Way
financially supports dozens of local
agencies and community impact
initiatives; however, the proceeds of
the “Neighbors Helping Neighbors
– LIVE UNITED” Golf Tournament
scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 8 and the
Red & White Unite pre-tournament
dinner and auction scheduled for
Friday, Oct. 7 have been designated to
specific local agencies.
The local volunteer Board of
Directors of the Cooke County United
Way approved the designation of the
proceeds to support health initiatives
that will benefit Cooke County
residents. The following nine local
agencies were specifically chosen
to benefit from the 2016 Charity
Tournament and dinner event. They
provide programs and services that
improve the physical and mental
health, safety and well-being of all and
include American Red Cross, Area
Agency on Aging of Texoma, Boys &
Girls Club of Cooke County, CASA of
North Texas, DASH, Home Hospice
of Cooke County, Meals on Wheels
Texoma, SW Diabetic Foundation/
Camp Sweeney, and VISTO.
Craig Lamkin, Vice President of the
Board of Directors of the Cooke County
United Way comments, “Having been
involved with Cooke County United
Way (CCUW) for almost five years,
I’ve seen firsthand the impact CCUW
has on the entire county. The fact
that contributions stay local and it's
neighbors helping neighbors is the
concept that drew me to volunteer
with Cooke County United Way.
Through their funding models, CCUW
not only provides annual funding to
participating agencies, but they also
have the ability to quickly respond to
pressing needs throughout the county.
Personally, the WGA charity events
give me the opportunity to do a little
more for the United Way beyond my
annual contribution. We hope you feel
the same and will participate in the
golf tournament, join us at the Red and
White Unite dinner, consider being a
tournament sponsor or simply make a
contribution. Regardless of how you
may choose to participate, we sincerely
appreciate your contributions to Cooke
County United Way.”
Kathy Reed, Lake Kiowa Women’s
Golf Association (LKWGA) member,
committee member and past board
member of the Cooke County United
Way notes; “This year the theme of
the LKWGA charity golf tournament
is “Neighbors Helping Neighbors
Live United.” The funds raised by this
tournament and the Red and White
Unite pre-tournament dinner will be
available to nine local charities. Every
penny of this money will stay in Cooke
County and will be available in the
form of grants to help our neighbors.
Who among us hasn’t known a Lake
Kiowan comforted with end-of-life
issues thanks to Home Hospice? Lake
Kiowa has produced many outstanding
CASA volunteers protecting children,
many of whom have been victims of
unimaginable horrors. VISTO may be
best known for feeding the hungry in
Cooke County, but they offer many
other support services to people down
on their luck. These are just three of
the nine agencies who will be helped
financially through the proceeds of
these events. Angels live in Lake
Kiowa and many of them find their
way to these agencies as volunteers. I
know who you are and your work is
awesome!”
TONY SMITH
Cooke County United Way
programs and services improve the
physical and mental health, safety
and well-being of all ages.
The
following
information
highlights four of the nine agencies.
The remaining five agencies will be
highlighted in the next issue of the
CommuniQué.

Southwestern
Diabetic
Foundation and Camp
Sweeney mission is to teach
diabetic management and
healthy lifestyle habits to
children who have type 1 or
type 2 diabetes. Another goal
is to teach healthy lifestyle
habits to overweight or obese
children who have been
identified as being at risk of
developing type 2 diabetes.
Camp Sweeney provides
summer camping sessions
that truly make a lifetime
change and influence on a
camper’s life. The camp also
offers year-round services.
Although there is a charge
for the camping program, no
child has ever been turned
away because of an inability
to pay. United Way has
provided Cooke County youth
scholarships when needed
and the camp continues to
be a Partner Agency. The
camp began in 1947 and
is located in Callisburg at
10687 FM 678. Today Camp
Sweeney provides services
for children and families
ages 3 and up from all over
the world. In 2015, Camp
Sweeney served children from
75 Texas counties, 24 other
states and 3 other countries.

Security Report
July 14 - Aug. 10, 2016
The real heat of
summer has made
its appearance in
North Texas right on
schedule, and are we
not glad that, in most
years, this happens
after all the festivities surrounding the
4th of July have come and gone? The
corresponding drop in activity levels at
this time is also a yearly phenomenon,
as the following account of this
reporting period will reflect.
Security patrol stopped two
vehicles being piloted by unlicensed
minors, administered three warnings
for parking violations and made
single stops for speeding and for not
stopping at a stop sign. Eight motorists
inconvenienced by car troubles were
given assistance. Lake officers made
fifteen stops for observed violations
and wrote one citation to a jet ski
operator for following too close behind
another watercraft. On six occasions,
members with malfunctioning boats
were given tows back to their docks.
Departmental logs also indicate
that response by Security personnel
was made to two residence alarms,
a request for a welfare check, two
complaints of disturbing the peace
and two complaints of trespassing.
There were two reported incidents of
unauthorized entry and one in regards
to an unaccompanied guest. A party of
golfers playing on a closed course was
asked to leave, a golf cart was removed
from the walking track below the dam
and an underage, unlicensed golf cart

REPEAT OFFENDER VIOLATIONS
August 2016
Rule 3.2.7.c.-Repeat Offenders
Within a 12-month period members, lessees, or contractors that receive two
or more citations or a combination of two or more citations in the Special,
Serious, or Major categories will be considered as repeat offenders. Multiple
infractions issued during the same incident will not be considered as repeat
offenses. Names of repeat offenders will be posted on the Lake Kiowa website
and printed in the CommuniQué.
By rule, the following property owner is classified as a repeat offender:
Donna Chafin, Lot 842, a family member violated traffic laws in May and
June.
“You got to know
when to hold ‘em,
know when to fold
‘em, know when to
walk away and know
when to run!” We are
all probably familiar
with these Kenny Rogers’ song lyrics.
This adage is true in cards and can be
applied to life. As I have mentioned
in other reports, the wildflower areas
we attempted to establish behind #13
green and #6 tee did not turn out as
we had hoped. That being said, we
decided to “fold” that hand and walk
away. Those areas are now and will
continue to be maintained as roughs.
The bermudagrass is beginning to reestablish itself in those areas. We will
continue to monitor that establishment,
and if necessary we may have to sod
some of those areas. We will hold off
on any sod work until late September
or early October when temperatures
start to stabilize and the turf is not
subjected to the extreme heat we have
seen over the last few weeks.
We have reached the home stretch
of what I refer to as the 100 days of
summer. We have seen several days
with afternoon highs reaching triple
digits. In fact, the heat index has
reached as high as 110. With that being
said, I think the golf course is holding
up nicely. We have had a few “hot
spots” pop up. Typically, we address
those several ways. First, we like to
get out there with roller base sprinkler
heads and soak those areas. In fact,
on some areas, we have run water all
day to saturate those areas. Second,
in areas that receive irrigation such
as fairways and tees, we also make
adjustments to the watering schedule
through the irrigation computer. This
is something that we monitor daily
and adjust accordingly.
Greens continue to be very good.
We continue to apply low doses of
complete macronutrient fertilizer
weekly and are supplementing those
with a micronutrient package every two
weeks. Our final core aerification on
greens will be performed on Monday,
Aug. 22. Although unpopular with
the everyday golfer, aerification is a
necessary cultural practice. Simply
put, the plant must have oxygen for
respiration and the soil must have it
for microbial activity. This is achieved
by pulling cores. To prepare the greens
for aerification, we will apply 0.5lb
Nitrogen on Monday, Aug. 15. This
boost is done to help speed recovery.
After cores are pulled, we will perform
a heavy topdressing, applying enough
sand to fill all open holes.
Tees continue to improve. In my last
report, I mentioned that the nutsedge
had become an issue on several tee
boxes. At that time, I decided to
wait until the turf was healthy before
applying any fertilizer to the tees.
That being said, we made our first
application on Tuesday, July 19. Since
then, I have noticed pretty good control.
As I mentioned before, it may take
multiple applications to get complete
control, so we will be making a second
application tentatively scheduled for
Monday, Aug. 15.
Fairways have recovered completely
from the June aerification. We continue
to make monthly applications of
wetting agent. We have pretty sandy
soils here at Lake Kiowa, and the
water can wick through the profile
pretty quickly.
The purpose of the wetting agent is
to make our irrigation more efficient
by holding the water in the root zone a
little longer, making it more available
to the roots. We still have a few dry
spots that pop up, but we are much
better off than we were at this time
last year. The rain events we had in
July helped tremendously!
During the week of Aug. 1, we
added irrigation around the tree at #16
green/#17 tee. Now we will be able to
get water down to the root ball without
having to run a hose from #16 green.
At the last LKPOA Board meeting,
a golf course advisory council was
established. This group will act similar
to a Greens Committee and will act
as a sounding board for all issues
on the golf course regarding course
conditions. I welcome their input and
look forward to working with them.
Please continue to sand your divots
and repair your ball marks.
See you around the course.

Lodge Update
August has been
pretty busy at the
Lodge considering
the hot days we have
had to endure. Our
Patio construction
has been underway
for the last few weeks and things are
looking fantastic! Our Grand Opening
will be Sept. 4, 5 so come and visit us
for some fun giveaways.
We also have hired some additional
servers to our team and look forward
to working with them closely to ensure
all our members receive outstanding
service. There will also be some
exciting events this month along with
the Patio opening and hopefully some
cooler weather.
We are expecting a very busy month
here at the Lodge. Please come out
and enjoy the new patio and try our
new items on the Patio Menu and
some of our new and refreshing drinks
that everyone will really enjoy. We
will also be offering our Limited Time
Fall Menu in September. This menu
approach was a huge success and our
fall menu will be a great hit as well!
We look forward to seeing you all
this month!

Public Works Update
PUBLIC WORKS
The new patio
construction
is
moving along nicely.
New gutters and
some soffit repairs
have been done on
the Lodge to help
prepare for this new addition. There
will be some irrigation changes also
to supply the new landscape around
the patio and Lodge surrounds.
PARKS AND LAKE
The lake elevation as of Aug. 9,
2016 was 699.3, down 7/10 of a foot,
but still better than years past. This
makes the lake much more enjoyable
for those with watercraft.
The new surface has been applied to
the tennis court, with pickleball lines
also included.
Mowing continues as usual in the
parks and on vacant lots owned by the
Association.
ROADS AND BRIDGE
Drainage improvements are in
progress around the lake. There are
still some concrete basins along the
roads to be repaired and bids are being
accepted to get started on these as
soon as possible.

I have 40 years experience in
every facet, every aspect of
constructing, repairing, restoring
and remodeling a home.
Working on the very same
homes in Highland Park for 25+
years has provided me with
insights into what procedures
and which materials work best.
I now work alone (and I really
do not care for the commute),
so small projects are preferred.
Call me if I can be of assistance
to you.

The policy and purpose of this publication
is to inform all residents of events and
activities within our community, to report on

Kiowa Property Owners Association Board
of Directors, and to publish the results of
those decisions. Information is important for
everyone to know that problems are being
worked on and remedies are being sought.
The following items will be accepted
for publication: Events and information
about Kiowa organizations that are open
to all residents; events in our surrounding
communities when Kiowa residents may be
involved in them; and Items of a personal
nature that reflect on the generous character
of our residents or a milestone in their lives.
A Letter to the Editor should be less than
350 words in length and will be accepted if it
presents a thoughtful and constructive view to
an issue that may be controversial within our
community. It may be reviewed and verified for
factual accuracy by the appropriate authority.
The factual clarification will be published
along with the letter. The letter should be
typed or in legible handwriting, signed by
a verifiable resident, and will be published
unedited with misspellings indicated when
necessary. If handwriting cannot be easily
read, it cannot be used. The CommuniQué

handwritten word. A letter may be refused
publication if space is limited. If several
