Fishers Launches a New Season of “Parkside Café”!

Whether you need a break during a hectic day at the office or are planning a family outing or play date for the kids, a picnic is a fun and healthy treat!

To encourage picnicking, Fishers Parks & Recreation identified picnic areas in five of Fishers municipal parks: Brooks School Park; Cumberland Park; Fishers Heritage Park at White River; Ritchey Woods Nature Preserve; and Roy G. Holland Memorial Park. Some Parkside Café picnic areas are close to multi-use trail—perfect for an after-lunch walk. Others are found along a greenway or nestled in a grove of trees where the sights are sounds of nature can sooth the soul. All are convenient to on-site parking.

No time to pack a picnic? Fishers Parks & Recreation partnered with area restaurants which will honor Parkside Café coupons. Coupons are available at www.fishers.in.us/parks Bring a coupon to Subway, 11640 Brooks School Road; Arby’s, 7454 E. 116th St.; McAlister’s Deli, 8355 E. 116th St.; Yats 8352 E. 96th St; or Moe’s Southwest Grill 8235 E 116th St. from now until October 1, 2010 and receive 10 percent off a meal for your picnic!

Annual HOA Meeting 7/29/09

Please try to attend our annual Home Owners Association meeting at 7:30 PM on Wednesday, July 29, 2009.

It will again be held at the Fishers Train Station.

This is an important meeting as several of the HOA members are stepping down this year.

Early Warm Weather Results in Algae in the Ponds

Algae in Pond in Sandcreek Woods in Fishers IndianaThe company that treats our neighborhood ponds is receiving a lot of calls from other neighborhoods about algae. The pond on the north entrance is the worst, and algae is also starting to form in the pond near the walking trail.

As usually happens, the recent warm weather caused an early outbreak of algae. The treatment company is hoping they will be able to start treating our ponds next week, as the water must be at least 55 F for the chemicals to work.

Thanks to the residents who also noticed this problem and please contact us if you see anything else.

Think Spring

Spring Time in IndianaHave you been starting to Think Spring yet? If you’re like most people it involves cleaning up and getting rid of a few things.

It’s the beginning of that time of year: Garage Sales. We would like to know if our neighborhood would like to participate in a Spring SCW garage sale. The time frame would be end of April, on a Friday & Saturday. Please contact us if interested in participating. Just like last time, if we have enough people to have a neighborhood sale the HOA will help with advertising in the newspaper and posting local signs.

A ‘thank you’ to those neighbors that have participated and helped in previous years garage sales.

p.s. Please also contact Kevin Hood if you are considering a new deck, swing set, landscaping or other outdoor improvements. Thanks!
