The Spring Fling will be held at the Grove on Friday, May 10th from 5-7 p.m. If it rains, we will move to the Gathering Place on the same date and at the same time. The cost per person is $3.00. Please bring an appetizer to share as well as your own chair to sit on. Beer, wine and soda will be provided.
Residents will be getting a hand-delivered invitation around April 18th. We would like to have responses from everyone no later than Friday, May 3rd. We will accept cash only. Please put your R.S.V.P. slip and money in the Weathersfield mailbox at the Swim & Croquet mail kiosk. The Weathersfield mailbox is on the east end of the kiosk (nearest Swim & Croquet) with the other Fearrington organization mailboxes.
It’s spring and the Wednesday evening Grove Gatherings are once again a highlight of the Weathersfield social calendar. Join your friends and neighbors this coming Wednesday and all future Wednesdays (in good weather) until the end of October. Bring your favorite beverage and a light snack to share. Gatherings begin at 5:00 p.m.
Sewer system maintenance has been completed in the Swim and Croquet section of our community. Lines were cleaned by using high pressure jetted water and their condition was observed by using a camera. Three fractures were found 10 to 14 feet deep under the surface and repaired using a point repair technique instead of resorting to the traditional dig and replace method. There was no interruption of service or inconvenience to neighbors. This work is part of our plan to better maintain our aging infrastructure. A portion of our dues are dedicated to this maintenance.
Good news! Both house and garage roofs will be blown off by
the crew from Squeaky Clean within the next two weeks, weather permitting.
Remember that cleaning gutters is the responsibility of the owners and Squeaky
Clean will only be blowing off the roofs.
Another exciting project is happening! In the next four
weeks you may see roofing contractors exploring garage roofs. The WSG Board has
approved the bidding process for replacement of 92 original garage roofs. BPM
sent out requests for proposals and all bids are due back by February 28, 2019.
The end-of-2018 financial statement is posted in the 2018 Documents section, and the agenda for the January 25, 2019, WSG Board meeting is posted in the 2019 WSG Board Documents section of this website.
Christmas tree pick-up by Ruppert will occur on the crew’s first visit after January 1 and two weeks later. Please put the trees near the house number signs at the end of your close.
First Choice Disposal will pick up trash and recyclables in Weathersfield on Wednesday, Dececember 26 and Wednesday, January 2 instead of the normal Tuesday pickup day.
Due to the recent snow storm, Ruppert crews have had to reschedule certain projects. The crew was on site December 13 to prune. Due to snow remaining on the bushes and on the ground, the smaller pruning debris will be removed on December 20 when the crew does its normal site visit. Larger pruning debris was collected the day of the pruning.
Storm debris clean-up: This is a separate project as defined in the Ruppert contract. Hope Weber, Chair of the Grounds Maintenance Committee, has approved a certain amount of money to begin the storm clean-up. The crew will be on site on December 19 to start the clean-up. If more funds are needed, the Ruppert supervisor will send a proposal and the work will be done in early 2019. Ruppert employees are off work the last week of December.
Christmas tree pick up by Ruppert will occur on the crew’s first visit after January 1 and two weeks later. Please put the trees by the street signs at the end of your close.
During the winter Ruppert crews will pick up small, bundled sticks at the end of the closes if they are tied or placed in landscape bags, not garbage bags. Thecrews will be on site every 10-14 days during winter months.
Due to the recent inclement weather, Ruppert will be very busy with storm cleanup in Weathersfield on Thursday, December 13. Ruppert has also rescheduled light pruning for Thursday. Large trees will be pruned by Davey Tree on Monday, December 17.
The agenda for the December 14 WSG Board Meeting has been updated to include reports by the Architecture and Buildings & Streets Committees. The Manager’s Report for the month of December has also been posted.
