BOTTLED WATER DONATIONS FOR HURRICANE HELENE VICTIMS
Lake Hills Presbyterian Church has placed a truck in the church parking lot for bottled water donations for Hurricane Helene storm and flood victims. The church Outreach Team will provide transportation for the bottled water to one of the Presbytery’s local collection churches. Several deliveries are anticipated over the next few weeks, so there is no cutoff-date at this time. Thanks to all who wish to participate.

HOA Dues Deadline September 1, 2024
The LHHA has started a new year (September 1) and over 230 of you have renewed. We will be sending the updated membership list to Waste Connections, Inc. on September 5, so that should be reflected in your WCI rates in the next billing quarter.
As per LHHA board policy, only members of the LHHA will have access to the Lakemoor Hills Facebook Group. If you are no longer a LHHA member, you will no longer have access to our social media platform. Once removed, you will have to reapply for access and be re-approved to be a member of the Facebook group.
If you simply forgot to renew, follow this link and renew online today. https://lakemoor.org/lhha/hoa-member-dues-renewal/
REMINDER: 2024-25 LHHA Dues are Due Now
Greetings neighbors!
The week of August 8th I sent out the renewal notices for your membership in the Lakemoor Hills homeowners association. Your $40 dues goes towards helping keep our neighborhood beautiful, safe, and secure. Your renewal is due by September 1, 2024. At that time I’ll be updating the membership listing with Waste Connections, Inc.
Thank you to the 180 of you who have already sent in your renewals. And thank you to all of you who included donations in your renewals. Your kind words are appreciated also.
You may renew, two different ways.
One is by returning the renewal sheet that is in your invoice, with your check, in the enclosed addressed envelope. Make your check out to LHHA. (If you lost the envelope, just send in your own envelope to Kathy Proctor, treasurer, 2429 Lakemoor Dr.)
The other way is to go online to our website, click https://lakemoor.org/lhha/hoa-member-dues-renewal/, and renew online.
Thank you for helping make Lakemoor Hills a great place to live. I appreciate your timely response.
Kathy Proctor, treasurer.
