October Trail Guide 2016

TEST POST

Office Reminders A little "housekeeping".  The office would like to note a couple of things, such as:  Please use the recepticles provided when disposing of trash; multiple containers are provided; one for aluminimum cans and one for regular trash.  When using the large trash bins at the front gate make sure all boxes are broken down before being placed in the bins. All visitors must check in at the office upon arrival even if accomponied by an OLT member.  Please shower before entering the pools or hot tub to remove any oils or sunblock products.  This helps keep the pools clean for all to enjoy. Be careful with muddy tires from riding the trails after a good rain.  Please remember to turn off the lights in the clubhouse when you leave.  Take your dishes home after a potluck and help us clean up afterwards. Please do not feed the wild animals and watch out for the pigmy snakes.                This years Festival was a big hit!  Lot's of new faces attended the 3 days of festivities, including the sat night cookout and dance! Incidentally, we ran out of burgers, thanks to Jerry C for providing hot dogs, we fed everyone who was hungry. Kush Radio was on site for a live broadcast in the meadow before the dance.  Rockin Randal and Rowdy RO also performed several live shows on OLT's new FM radio station "Nude Radio" which broadcasts every day at the park!  Any time your on the OLT grounds tune your dials to 90.3 to hear daily music and announcements. Hats off to Rowan for organizing, planning and running this successful Event. She also produced the Nudestock flyer which used artwork from the original Woodstock and was shared and viewed by hundreds online. We look forward to next year!

The office got a face lift this month with the newly stained wooden deck.  A big Thank You to Alan for donating his time and expertise to sand and stain the entire deck from start to finish, it was much needed and appreciated!

A couple who hadn't been to OLT for a few years enthusiastically exclaimed to me recently that so much has changed since their last visit.  That was true. Since their visit we've added another heated pool and deck, permanent shade awnings, some 80 new pool lounge chairs, four new duplexes, a chapel, new Bistro equipment, increased water storage capacity, and expanded our social media sites along with our new radio station: 90.3 FM. They told me that they had visited numerous clubs and resorts both within and outside the US and had not seen them improve so dramatically. At that evenings' dance the wife said "this place rocks!". Yes it does. For almost 25 years now this place has "rocked", and we want to keep rockin'. As many of you know our Activities Co-Chairs Tim and Jenn have had to resign. They, like others in the past, have valiantly taken on this position only to realize that family and life in general prevents them from devoting the time and effort needed to provide us with the "robust calendar of events" we expect. Being Activities Chair is a BIG job. The time and effort it takes to plan,organize, direct these events, and find, recruit and hire new talent is substantial. Rowan W. has offered to step up and take on this challenge. She's got some great new ideas like bringing live bands and other performers to OLT. To do this she has asked for a substantially increased Activities budget. Our BOD has never shied away from difficult decisions and we believe that bringing Rowan onto our team will result in new, fresh and fun entertainment for all at OLT. We must never forget "Fun is Good"! --- Gary The Survivor Games 2016 results and winners!                            Park News Join us for this years Fall Arts Festival on SAT OCT 15th.  Plans include live music, vendors of all types, games and a Dance!  Interested in being a vendor?

We also use these platforms to stay in touch with our current members and we encourage everyone to help us along the way by liking or sharing any content you see us post.
