Karyn Leslie led a lively group of friends and neighbors for “Make & Take Signs” at Popponesset’s Community House crafts night. The group had so much fun creating their signs they asked Karyn to set up another session as soon as possible. Watch the website calendar for a date!
 
The next event at the House will be Shuffleboard practice and play, Sunday, December 11 at 1:00 PM, and a Cookie Swap on Thursday, December 15 at 1:00.

We had a wonderful turnout at last night’s Halloween Potluck party – just one of the events at the Community House this Fall. A calendar of November and December Community House events is posted at the House and can be found in member’s PBA emails. For the most recent updated information see our live calendar on the PBA website  at CALENDAR.

        After 8 months of diligent work, this morning we hosted our Spring Homeowner's meeting in our totally renovated Community House. The building project addressed major necessary maintenance issues in the sixty-odd year-old building such as a leaky roof, inadequate insulation and ventilation, plumbing and electrical, as well as improvements like ADA accessible bathrooms and improved storage. We are delighted with the resulting clean, bright, airy, modern space that we hope will serve the community for decades to come and help create lots of great Popponesset memories to treasure. The project was funded by member donations and operating funds and was led by a team of diligent volunteers who contributed not only money, but guidance, research, creative interior design, and hours of hands-on labor.

The past  two years our calendar of events was interrupted by the necessary precautions for Covid-19 so we are especially excited to announce the return of this year's Basketball Tournament June 30th & July 1st (Boys Thursday at 10:45  & Girls at Friday 10:45), as well as  the Fourth of July celebration which will begin with the parade at 9 AM and Field Day following right after. Everyone is encouraged to join the parade with hats, horns, banners, flags, fancy cars, pets, bikes, balloons, and whatever ways you will express yourself!

The Community House opens June 27th for the start of our regular summer schedule of sports,  activities and events. Come down and check it out - we think you will be delighted!
