VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

The Association has received a donation of FREE woodchips to be used to cover a portion of the nature path that runs from Nippersink Rd. north along the wetland to Rookery Circle.

We need VOLUNTEERS to help unload, deliver and rake out the woodchips.  If you are interested and available on Saturday June 9th  please SIGN UP now by clicking the link to send us an e-mail. Details will be worked out if we get enough volunteers, but if we can get 15 people, we think it will take about 4 hours. Weather permitting we plan to start early.

If we are unable to get enough volunteers to install the woodchips, we will have to pass on this opportunity.  SIGN UP now and we'll send you more details as soon as we have them.

In previous years the association has made money and signage available to help promote a subdivision wide garage sale but the event itself has always been organized and managed by volunteers. At this time, we do not have any volunteers to plan and organize this event, so there is currently nothing planned.

If you are interested in planning a community event, please contact us for details. This work includes planning the event, coordinating permits with the Village, posting signs, creating and placing newspaper advertisements, etc...

Residents may hold their own garage sale at any time within Village regulations. If you are holding your own garage sale, remember permits are required and can be obtained from the Village.

Anyone holding a garage sale must observe all Village and Association requirements regarding placement of signs.

Garage Sale signs shall NOT be permitted in or attached to Community Association property, public right of ways or on Park District property.

Signs placed in these areas may be removed and disposed of without notice.

Millennium Trail Construction Update

The Lake County Forest Preserve District and the Village of Round Lake have signed an Inter-Governmental agreement which will allow the District to finish construction on the section of Millennium trail that travels from Litchfield Drive east through the Nature's Cove neighborhood.

As part of the agreement with Natures Cove the portion of the existing Nature’s Cove sidewalk (southwest corner of 323 S. Litchfield Drive) previously built on the District’s easement will be relocated at the District’s expense.

The original construction contracts are still in place and a meeting with them and the District will be held shortly to develop a project schedule, including when the sidewalk relocation work will take place. The preliminary goal is to start work the beginning of May and finish seeding and other site restoration in May and June.

Final schedules will be posted as soon as they are available.

For details on the sidewalk reconstruction, see the sidewalk plan here.
