Please Don't Trash Coventry
Lately we're seeing a lot more trash and
beer cans alongside the roads and in the
garden areas throughout Coventry. Please
tell all of your family members, especially
the young drivers in your family as well as
their friends, not to throw trash out
alongside the roads. Trashing the roads
and vandalizing property reflects on us all
as a community. Help keep Coventry
Clean!

From Monique's Desk
It is spring time once again. So it’s time for
Coventry to do some spring cleaning!! Let’s make
our community the best it can be!! Let’s make
sure we are all in compliance with our Declaration
of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions of the
Coventry Planned Unit Development.
I will be looking into each individual village,
inspecting each home with great care. I have
noticed there are a few homes in need attention.
Below is a list of common violations.






Mold & Mildew visible on the homes and
fences
Absence of screening of garbage
receptacles and air conditioning units
Boats and recreational vehicles repeatedly
parked in driveways
Unsightly objects that can be seen from the
street
Yard trash being dumped in common areas
Poorly cared for lawns and landscaping
Let’s all work together so as to not detract from
the overall quality of our homes as well as our
community as a whole. If violations are observed,
specific homeowners will receive a notification
from the Master Board to correct the observed
violation.
Please take the time to go over the Disclosure
Package that was provided to each home owner
when the home was purchased (or provided to the
lessor) and take the necessary steps to be in
compliance with our guidelines. The purpose of
the Covenants and our Architectural Guidelines is
to protect the value of your homes, and keep
Coventry a desirable community in which to live.
With the weather getting warmer our residents
will be spending more time outside. Let’s make
sure we are all considerate and kind to one
another. Let’s keep our dogs on their leashes and
the Mutt Mitt containers in need of refilling! Let’s
2
remember that cleaning up after our pets is the
polite and courteous thing to do. Let’s also keep
your pets on a leash to protect our residents and
wildlife.
With all of your cooperation, assistance and
attention we can keep Coventry the wonderful
neighborhood that we all would like it to stay. We
welcome any and all comments from homeowners
on ways in which our Covenants and Architectural
Guidelines can be improved.
Thank you for your help in these matters,
Monique Blackwell

Letter From the President of The Coventry Homeowners Association
Dear Homeowners,
Hello Neighbors, “It’s Springtime Again!”
Isn’t it nice to know we live in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the York County area?!
Coventry remains one of the “prime places to live.” Being centrally located with easy access to interstate,
hospitals, recreation, and surrounded by some of the highest rated schools, all contributes to the value of
our homes and neighborhood. Some of the value created within our neighborhood is based on the many
amenities we have for our family enjoyment. Your Board has been working with the ARC Committee,
Beautification Committee, and together we are going to be making some exciting improvements within
our neighborhood in 2015. We are very excited about the new playground that will be installed early May
in Harvest Lake. There will be a “Grand Opening” with volley ball, ping pong and tennis competitions.
We are getting the grills ready for hamburgers, hot dogs and all the fixings. Please come and bring the
entire family for a day of good family fun and fun competition. There will be something for everyone,
and the kids will have fun trying out the new playground. The excitement starts at 10:00am and runs all
the way to 4:00pm.
Here is my challenge to you! What is a good neighbor? It is a simple act of caring and giving
freely for the welfare of another person or neighbor. Often, we tend to focus on our own needs while
overlooking those around us. Imagine how wonderful it would be if we all showed our neighbors respect
and friendliness, not speeding in areas where children are known to play, picking up after ourselves and
pets, promptly taking the trash totes away from the road, keeping the car stereos down, and maintaining
our yards. Imagine knowing your neighbors by name and saying hello when you pass by them, or lending
a helping hand when you see the need, giving a smile or a wave of the hand. I challenge you to do at least
one act of kindness a week, or every few days, to one of your neighbors. I promise you will be amazed at
the results, not only around you, but within you.
Again, thank you all for the opportunity to serve you. Your feedback is necessary in helping your
Board find solutions to your concerns. Remember, when many talents, ideas, visions and passion come
together with a desire to make a difference, unbelievable things will happen for the better of all!
Very truly yours
Tony D. Collins, Sr.
President, Coventry Homeowners Association

Children’s Easter Egg Hunt

LIZ MOORE & ASSOCIATES and the Coventry

Spring Neighborhood Yard Sale
Grab your junk, I mean treasure, and put it out for
others to buy. It's time for that spring cleaning
event known as the Coventry Spring Yard Sale.
The newspaper ad will posted by the Association
for the entire neighborhood. Official date and
time for the neighborhood yard sale is Saturday,
May 2nd from 8am to 12pm.
Pool Hours of Operation
CCRs?? Guidelines??
It's almost time to jump in the pools. Look to the
marquis signs to see when pool passes will start to
be given out. The pools will open on May 23 with
limited hours until June 16. Here's the schedule:
We live in a Homeowners Association. Pretty
sure you knew that when you bought your place
and moved in. I'm sure you got a Disclosure
Packet too. Do you know what's inside it? All
those pesky rules, restrictions, and guidelines for
living here in Coventry. They all originated with
the developer of Coventry and/or some of the
original residents of the villages you and I live in.
Back in the 80's!!! Lots of things have changed
since the 80's. Rules and guidelines can be
changed too. Since each village has their own
tailored Architectural Guidelines, it's up to each
respective village to provide updated guidelines to
the Architectural Review Committee.
Get
together with your neighbors, set up a small
committee and work it all out. Then it's time to
get a consensus (generally two thirds of the
homeowners) from the rest of the neighbors in the
village and forward that to the ARC. Don't ignore
the rule. Fix it. Until then, those are the rules.

Tennis
Anyone?
Coventry neighbors, the Harvest Lake tennis
courts will be open for two exciting activities.
These activities will take place at the grand
opening event of our beautiful new Harvest Lake
playground on May 9th.
On one court, we will be looking for social tennis
players to have some fun playing short sets of
tennis. We will also be collecting names, emails
and phone numbers of people interested in
participating in a Coventry social league. Please
bring your racket, wear your tennis shoes and be
ready to play.
On the other court, we will be setting up modified
courts for a demonstration of "USTA 10 and under
tennis". Please go to this website to find out more:
USTA10andundertennis.com. I will be attending
a training at the end of March that will allow me
to teach this program. Please plan on attending
this fun and exciting new way for children 10 and
under to learn the game of tennis. Hope to see you
on the courts!
