2020 Social Events
We look forward to seeing you at the social events this year.
The events planned for 2020 include:
Wine Tasting - to be scheduled
Ladies' Luncheon - Sunday 4/26
Picnic at the Pool - Sunday 6/28
Autumn Fest - Sunday 10/4
We are considering a men's event to let the men in the neighborhood meet more men,
but we need some men who can help decide what kind of event we should do and help organize the event.
If you are interested call Christine Melton at (314) 560-5705.
We have been presented with lots of ideas for more events. AND, it takes a village to put these events on.
We could use your hands to make the load on the Social committee lighter; and,
at the same time create more opportunities for people to meet/greet.

Are you interested in joining a Pickleball League?
Recently our Tennis Court was resurfaced, restriped for both tennis and 2 pickleball courts, and portable pickleball nets were purchased. The tennis court will now be a dual purpose court. We're looking for experienced and new pickleball players to see if we have enough interest to start an Autumn Lakes pickleball league.
Contact Richard Ornberg at 817-357-2633 to help get a league started!!

Autumn Lakes Common Ground Suggestions
The Autumn Lakes trustees would like to know if any of the residents have suggestions to improve the use of the common grounds. We are always going to take into consideration what will serve or maybe just appeal to the most people. Once we have a list, the board will review it. If there are a lot of good ideas, we'll ask which ideas the residents might be most excited about. Of course, we can't do everything for reasons of cost, practicality, or even city laws. There may be some simple things we can do right away and some things we may want to consider in the future. All ideas are welcome, but try to make them as specific as possible. Including your name and address would also be helpful if we have further questions.
If you have an idea or more than one, please use the Contact Us page on this website to let us know about them.

Ash Tree Treatment Map
The Ash Tree committee prepared a map of the Autumn Lakes and city ash trees identifying the condition and plan for treatment to prevent the Emerald Ash Borers by Autumn Lakes Association. Green dots identify the ash trees that are still in good condition and will be treated. Yellow dots identify the ash trees that have started to show damage but will probably be treated. The red dots indicate ash trees that are too damaged and will not be treated. The red dot trees will be removed by the city or Autumn Lakes as soon as possible.
In case you haven't had a chance to see the map it is now on display on the bulletin board at Autumn Lakes Dr and Autumn Shores Dr.

Ash Tree Committee Report
You've probably seen them walking around and looking at our trees several times this summer and fall. The Ash Tree committee - Jay Black, Andrea Crouch, Judy Haldeman and Patricia Law - have been identifying, labeling and classifying all the ash trees in Autumn Lakes to understand the impact of the emerald ash borer on our trees, both city (streetside) and common ground trees. The Ash Tree committee has talked to 3 tree services and Steve Schenck, MH Public Works manager, about the Autumn Lakes' city ash trees and possible treatment to prevent damage from the emerald ash borers. If AL decides to treat some of the city ash trees, we need to identify them before MH is ready to cut down the ash trees. MH has agreed to work with us to preserve some of our trees.
The committee met with the Board to present a treatment plan. This plan will be used by the Board in the 2017 budget discussions. The Board is working on a communication to Autumn Lakes residents and an information meeting for residents about the ash tree treatment and removal plan.

Smoke Detector Reminder
Firemen from the Maryland Heights Fire Protection District visited with residents at the Maryland Heights' Nite Out. The officers encourage changing smoke detector batteries, including backup batteries, annually when we change our clocks. They also recommend replacing the entire detector every 10 years. If any resident needs help changing smoke detector batteries please call 314-298-4400 and the fire department will coordinate getting them replaced. If you need help installing new smoke detectors the firemen will also help with that. Their recommendation also applies to carbon monoxide detectors - replace them every 10 years.
