Improvements
Our parking lots are being upgraded, with some new pavement, new seal coating, and new striping. There are two tennis courts that will receive an upgrade near the end of the summer to have permanent pickle ball courts. In addition, the basketball court will be stripped to look like a half court.
ACC
This time of year our homeowners make improvements to their yards and homes. It’s a busy time for our ACC Chairman and committee. Please be advised that there has recently been an increase in alterations to houses and fencing without a permit. The Boards two primary duties are to maintain the facilities, and enforce the restrictions, rules and regulations. Almost everything on the exterior of a house requires prior approval, even if you are repainting the same color. Tree removal, fencing, larger driveways, all require prior approval. The members have an option to engage the services of an arborist when requesting tree removal. A letter from the arborist stating a tree has outlived its useful life, is a danger to homes, or is diseased, can allow members to remove trees in addition to what the ACC can approve.
I encourage all homeowners to complete the appropriate repair/alteration request and deliver to the office. Request forms are available on our website or at the office. The owner will be issued a permit after a visit from the ACC, if the request meets the guidelines. The board is simply asking for compliance from all members. A member can call the office and seek guidance and or clarification. The vast majority of our members comply with the rules and regulations and we appreciate their cooperation.
Golf Course
Recently the golf course experienced some vandalism as you may have read on “ Nextdoor”. Understandably, Phillip was upset, but was appreciative that some of the residents approached the vandals and tried to end the situation. We are fortunate to live in Carolina Shores where the crime rate is almost –zero-. Without everyone’s support, and watchful eyes, our neighborhood could become a target for more of these incidents. The residents who responded and tried to take action are to be commended. If you have any information please contact Philip at the golf course.
Enjoy the summer and all the amenities we share!
THANK YOU TO OUR BULLETIN EDITORS LINDA RUGG and MERRILEE BURNS

Recreation Facilities – Kelly Wilson
The Rec area keeps getting its usage because clubs are meeting under the pavilion, pickle ball and tennis are at full swing, plus the pool opened as scheduled on Mother’s Day weekend. We hope everyone has been able to enjoy.
An addition to the Rec area is the basketball hoop which is up and usable and area kids have been able to enjoy that. We will be getting the top sealed and lined so basketball will be more enjoyable.
We hope all members have a chance to enjoy the great amenities we have in our neighborhood.
Pool
The CSPOA pool opened on Mother’s Day weekend as expected, but cooler temperatures outside kept everyone away until temperatures returned to normal and were more enjoyable. We did have a few toe dippers, but nobody braved the cool water temps.
Please remember to read the rules pertaining to the pool before visiting. We ask that you do not park on the grass unless there are no parking spots available in the lot. When signing in with the attendants, write your last name and Carolina Shores address where required and please also write legibly so attendants can read your information.
Members without working fobs will be asked for address information and ID before being allowed into the pool area. If your information cannot be verified, you will be refused admittance and will be asked to go to the office where they can adjust or replace the non-working fob.
As always, guests must be accompanied with a member to be allowed admittance into the pool area and must be signed in with the member under guest.
Please enjoy this summer as we get back to normalcy, relax with family and friends and enjoy the outdoors.

Book Discussion Group – Susie Riggs
The Book Discussion Group met in the POA building on Friday, May 21. This month’s reading selection was Dear Edward by Ann Napolitano. This novel is about a 12-year-old boy who is the only survivor of an airplane crash that also takes the lives of his parents and older brother and is both heartbreaking and uplifting. The book was inspired by an actual news article about a child who survived an airplane crash over Tripoli in 2010. According to the author, after reading about this young boy’s experience, she wanted to write a story showing how he might be able to endure such a terrific loss and somehow be able to go on with life.
Our next meeting will be held on Friday, June 18. We will be discussing two books: American Dirt by Jeanine Cummins and The Jane Austen Society by Natalie Jenner. Members can choose to read one or both books. If you would like to join us, we would love to see you at the POA clubhouse at 10:00 a.m. on the 18th.
Garden Club – Mary Conover
The members of the Garden Club met on May 12 for our end-of-the-year luncheon and scholarship presentation at Talk of the Town Restaurant. A delicious lunch and great program and fellowship was enjoyed by all.
Due to the unusual year that we have experienced (2020-2021), we decided to have a Membership Social on June 9. We have many new members this year, and it will be fun to get to know each other a little better! The first meeting of our 2021-2022 year will be September 8.
The CS Garden Club meets the second Wednesday of each month, September to May, at 1:00 p.m.. Dues are $10/year. Please contact Joanne Bendy at (910)575-0071 if you have any questions. Stay safe and enjoy your summer!

2. Select Settings from the drop-down.
3. Select Notifications from the left menu:
4. Next to Email Notifications, select Edit
