Santa Ana Pub Crawl - 07/12


Didn't get enough partying in this 4th of July weekend? No worries. This Saturday starting at 5PM, the downtown restaurants and bars will be hosting the Santa Ana Pub Crawl.

Stop off at any of the participating locations and pick up a "Crawler Card" for a chance to win free prizes. All you need to do is visit all of the locations featured on the card that night and get it stamped by an employee. Once you've got all of the locations checked off on your card, turn it in (at any of the locations) and you’ll be entered into the raffle. That's it!

Visit the Pub Crawl website for more details and be sure to sign up on the mailing list for information updates.

Montereyvillas.org - Getting Off to A Slow Start

*THE MONTEREYVILLAS.ORG SITE IS TEMPORARILY DOWN DUE TO SOME SERVER UPGRADES, PLEASE BE PATIENT, THE SITE SHOULD BE BACK ONLINE LATER TONIGHT*
07-08-08 3:30PM

Its been a couple weeks now since we launched the Monterey Villas HOA site, and it seems to be getting off to a slow start. Oh course we didn't expect 300 people to sign up for the site right away but we already have 20 residents registered. Montereyvillas.org goes far beyond what we could ever do here on the blog. I highly encourage everyone to check it out and sign up.

I'm happy to announce that our first classified ad has been posted, and it is for a 5 piece Dining Room Set. Click here to view the ad.

There is also a section on MontereyVillas.org which allows members to submit a service request straight to Beacon Property Management by simply filling out a form on the site. Here is the most recent submission:

Location:Between E and F, G Request:Each sprinkler head need to be checked so that new plants and grass are getting enough water. Some areas are so dry and plants and grass are dying. I'm currently using my own hose to water to keep the dry wilted plants from dying.


Here is a conversation from on of the topics in the discussion forum:

Creating more parking spots
As I as walking back to my condo the other day I noticed we have an opportunity to create a few more parking spots in our complex. I am referring to the area that is in front of the mysterious developer storage/golf cart location/few handicapped spots. There is a dumpster there which I believe hardly gets used (removing it would save our community fees), removing the little area which to me, is a waste of space, could add four of five more parking spots. Does anyone have any thought about this?

Cheers

It would be a quick fix I'm in...damn bro your ideas just keep coming. We could also get 1 more spot if we take out the wooden fence area where the big dumpster used to be on the long driveway near Albersons

I noticed that area too. Funny how it has a lock on it but the electrical junction boxes, phone junction boxes, sprinkler timer junction box, and cable junction box... nope, they don't need one! I would like to know what is in the storage area and who has access to it right now.

Cheers

Like everything else only the converters hold the key, I saw it open one day...looked like nothing but junk.

Also, there is space next to the dumpster across from the E Building facing Wellington that could be made into a compact space. There used to be a tree there, but it was cut down leaving a 2 inch stump. It's just dirt and flat dry grass/ivy now.

Happy 4th!

Here's wishing all Monterey Villas residents a happy and safe Independence Day celebration.

In case you are looking for something to do, here are some community activities in Santa Ana and Tustin:

Santa Ana: Renewing the American Spirit - a Fourth of July Celebration - a festival at Santa Ana High School. Noon - 5:00 p.m.

Tustin: July 4th Celebration - at Tustin High School. Concert at 6:30, fireworks at 9:00

Or, if you'd prefer to explore other cities in Orange County, check out orangecounty.net or the Orange County Register's event listings.


Other notes:

  • Remember, it is against association rules to use barbecues on your patio. However, if you have a barbecue, you may take it out to one of the bench alcoves scattered throughout the complex to do your grilling. The barbecue by the pool is also available on a first-come, first-serve basis for those who have their own propane tanks.
  • Use common sense when it comes to fireworks. Public displays are safest, but if you must buy your own, keep it legal and light them on paved surfaces well away from dry debris or plants. Have a bucket of water nearby to thoroughly extinguish used fireworks and sparklers.

Help Wanted!!!

Due to my over demanding work schedule, and constant business trips I'm looking for some blog authors. I've already sent author invites to residents who are our committee leaders.

A blog author is simply someone who can start a post on this site. I just don't have enough free time as I'd like to devote toward the blog. I'm not stepping down from the blog, you'll see my post here and there but I feel that the Committee leaders can give you the best info about their meetings and intentions.

If you're knowledgeable of things going on in our community and would like to contribute to the blog please email me cyrusthevirus12@gmail.com and let me know who you are, where you live, and what you feel you can contribute to the blog.

I thank everyone for their participation and dedication to reading the blog to this point. I know that it can only get better from here. Please give the new authors the same amount of attention as you did toward me.

New Authors you are free and clear to start posting from here on out. If you have any trouble posting email me and I'll get back to you ASAP.
