A Recap of the Summer Newsletter

Hello Neighbors!
The Creekside Park Homeowners' Association wants to inform, serve, and generate positive activities in our wonderful neighborhood. There are many clubs and committees to suit your interests and many ways to be involved - from single tasks to serving on the board. We invite you to attend a meeting, visit a web site, and join your friends and neighbors in caring for Creekside.

President's Message:
As July 4th approaches and we have thoughts of celebrating Independence Day, we are reminded of the many freedoms that we have in the United States. Under the Bill of Rights, we have the right to assemble.

As you read this newsletter, you will note the many opportunities we have in Creekside to “assemble” and to get involved. Your Homeowners CPCP Board invites you to join one of our subcommittees listed on our website (http://www.creeksideconnection.blogspot.com/). Just call one of the Board members on the subcommittee and tell him/her that you would like to be a member. We also invite you to attend our Board meetings, which are held the first Monday of every month (except July). We are blessed to be living in a neighborhood that not only has many worthwhile and fun activities (please note upcoming July 4th celebration), but that we are a caring and committed community!

Creekside Men's Club is a very active group that supports the neighborhood year-round. Events include New Year's Eve Celebration, cooking for home swim meets, July 4th Parade and Creek Float, Halloween Hayride, and Christmas Parade Float. There are monthly men’s nights, donations to the Ronald McDonald House, construction and maintenance of the Tiki Hut, and numerous social occasions. Membership is open to all men in the neighborhood and fees are $100/year.

Get ready for the Men's Club July 4th Celebration! Families decorate bikes,
golf carts, and pets, then meet at the Tennis and Swim Club at 8am for the parade around Creekside Drive, to Scottland Drive, down Angus Court and back to the clubhouse for refreshments. If you are not in the parade, come wave a flag as your neighbors pass by. In the afternoon, bring your favorite float to the dock and drift down Shem Creek. Time and tides to be announced. That evening, return to the pool for a band party. For more information, contact club president Jay White at psychologyboy@comcast.net.


Creekside Women's Club
celebrated a busy year full of holiday-related fanfare, neighborhood enhancements, charitable acts, and social gatherings. Activities included Easter Egg Hunt, garage sale, socials, Halloween Carnival, MUSC Charity Dinners, Yard of the Month, Christmas Carolling and luminaries, and neighborhood directories. Appreciation is extended to the membership. Notable leadership was recognized including Deanna Jordan, past president, and notably Cammie McInerney, Jessica Browning, Galen Howell, Ellen Henderson, Bessie Gantt, Kathleen Savage, and Amy Jenkins. Dues should be paid to Creekside Women’s Club by June 30. Drop off to Cammie McInerney, treasurer, at 934 Scottland Drive. Please note a change in dues structure. The membership fee for social and family events is $35 (reduced by 15 dollars). A new social membership only addresses the fact that some women are no longer participating in family events and wish to attend only social functions. For social, please pay $25 dollars. Mark you calendars for the Saturday, June 20 Creekside Yard Sale. Volunteers signed up for this year’s events and services, but there is lots more room for both leadership and helpers! We welcome your involvement on any level. Event and Service Chairs will take the place of the previous president position.
