Earl Ratledge
Friends … I just learned our neighbor, Earl Ratledge of 3533 Raines Lane, passed away on March 27th. He was 100 years old. The services and burial have already taken place. Mr. Ratledge drove himself to one of the early Happy Hours and brought copies of a self-published book about his experiences in the Korean War.

LHHA Appreciation Awards for Natural Beauty
We are days away from what I call the start of Knoxville’s unofficial FIFTH SEASON of the year…DOGWOOD TRAIL SEASON! In our enchanting Lakemoor Hills we see beauty everywhere, so every Dogwood Season we like to acknowledge some of our favorite properties by giving them the “LHHA Appreciation Award for Natural Beauty”. Elements of the award can vary from natural landscaping to well-maintained spaces or a harmonious blend, special trees (especially Dogwoods), shrubs and flowers, appealing architectural highlights surrounded by plants or just something simple that blooms providing that feeling of spring in all of us. Like the “Holiday Spirit Awards”, it truly is a celebration of all our properties and the work you and your neighbors do designing, maintaining and decorating for all of us to enjoy as we travel through Lakemoor Hills. The award allows us to add an extra focus on a few pleasing properties which come in all sizes and styles from the smallest lot or attraction, to the grandest, even a Charlie Brown tree at Christmas or a well-positioned Azalea providing everyone a chance. Five homes will receive the award picked by our secret panel of judges who will tour the neighborhood this weekend. Also like the “Holiday Spirit Awards”, those that have won within the last three years are ineligible, this ensures a chance for everyone even beyond the three years. If you win an award sign will be placed in your yard early next week in time for the launch of the Dogwood Trail and removed at the end of April. If a sign is placed in your yard and you do not want it in your yard, please contact Randy Kerns and he will retrieve it (cell 937-694-5627). Happy Dogwood Season!
First Happy Hour of 2025 is tomorrow
Hey Neighbors! Reminder that our first Happy Hour of 2025 is tomorrow 5 PM at Legacy Park. The park is located at the end of Circle Lake Lane. Join your friends and meet new neighbors for fellowship and a bit o’ Shenanigans.
We will have Corned Beef Sliders and Chips. You are always welcome and encouraged to bring a dish to share.
Come and see what treasures can be found at the Swap Table and sample the March Cocktail of the Month. See you tomorrow!
