June/July2011 …

Summer is here and our communitylooks great. Everyone has been workinghard these past months in preparation forthe 2011 season so we can all enjoy anexcellent summer of lake, beach andrecreation activities.

Fawn Lake is the best it has been inyears. Without the debris and weeds, itreally shines. The natural lake managementplan which began with the Fall draw downhas transformed Fawn into an excellentrecreational asset, chemical-free. Iencourage everyone to use the communitylaunch at Inverness Court and discoverFawn Lake.

The beach and playground have beenreplenished with sand and new picnictables and grills are being installed. Picnictables also will be installed at the SouthBeach Pavilion. The office, lodge, andother community buildings are beingrepaired and painted by the MaintenanceDept. and the wellhead area next to therestaurant has been resurfaced to better

protect our water as recommended by DEP.This summer work will be done to fill

the cracks in our roads and extend their life.And on July 4 we will unveil the newflagpole and memorial park at South Beachat a 10:00 am service.

Still to be resolved is the water situationat the Firehouse. The water well has beenbrined because of its location to themaintenance salt shed and the water is notdrinkable. Spring water dispensers arecurrently used; drilling a new well is beinginvestigated.

We are fortunate to be able toaccomplish so much and fully fund ouroperations, given the poor state of theeconomy. The just concluded fiscal yearsaw costs up in employee health insurance,gasoline, fuel surcharges for garbageservices, and other areas. Revenues weredown with rising foreclosures anddelinquencies. The new fiscal year startedvery well in terms of members paying theirdues, so our outlook is cautiouslyoptimistic. By holding the line on

expenses, we should be in good shape thistime next year.

The Board of Directors has been busyin other areas as well. We have changed thevolunteer activities of the community,particularly involving the keeping of funds.For many years all volunteer activities werepaid out of the volunteer line in ourcommunity budget with oversight by theTreasurer. Several years ago a separatecash fund was maintained off-line fromregular treasury activities. The Board hasended this practice and has restored thevolunteer services to their traditional roleout of the Beach and Recreation Dept.

The Board has also streamlinedadministration operations, with a staff ofthree accomplishing what used to be doneby four. The busy start of the fiscal year inJune when members pay their dues washandled very well by the office staff. Weare lucky to have such dedicated employeesin the office, maintenance, security, andbeach/recreation departments. The Board is

Security ReportEight Ways You Can Help SecurityThis Summer

The ice and snow are gone, thesummer is here, and Gold Key’s SecurityDepartment beefs up for the season. Butwe can’t be successful without the eyesand ears of the members. How can youhelp the Security Dept. secure thecommunity this summer?

Here are eight ways you can help:1. Call Security whenever necessary,

24/7. The number is: 686-3636. We arehere to serve the members.

2. Get your vehicles registered anddisplay the GKL sticker. Have yourguests register for Guest Passes in theoffice. This is the only way we canreadily identify who should be in ourcommunity and who should not.

3. Obey the road rules. Be on thelook-out for members walking, bikeriding, and playing near the road. Don’tspeed!

4. Report incidents you witnessimmediately. The quicker we learn of theproblem, the quicker we can resolve it.

5. Make sure your vehicle sticker isvisible when entering the community. Ifit is old, come into the office and get anew one.

6. Do not use Turf Rd. We have beensuccessful keeping non-members fromentering our community, but now ourneighbors are doing the same to us. GoldKey does not own the road past the gateand traveling on it is trespassing. AndSecurity has no authority in incidents thathappen outside of our community. Thebest advice is not to use Turf Rd.

7. Always have your member/guestbadge visible when at communityamenities.

8. Let the Security Dept. or Boardknow of any security issue or suggestionyou have.Enjoy the Summer!Francis RuggieroDirector of Security

updating the Employee Handbook and, thissummer, will be evaluating all regularemployees for budgeted bi-annual raises.

We have had to deal with many culvertproblems, including member andcommunity lots. It is the responsibility ofevery member to clean their culvert. Afailing culvert can mean the damage of aneighbor’s property. Fortunately mostmembers have been cooperative, but fineshave been issued. Gold Key will beworking on its own culverts and ditches thissummer.

Lastly, extra effort has been made to getthe word out about vacancies on the Boardof Directors. This August five positions willbe filled in the annual election. We haveadvertised this fact on the TV channel, GoBoard, and in the newsletter. Hopefully ourefforts will yield many good candidatesinterested in continuing Gold Key’sprogress. Make sure you vote.

I hope you and your family have anenjoyable summer!

Francis Ruggiero, President

President’s Messagecontinued from page 1

From The Treasurer’s DeskAs I write this article, our fiscal year 2010/11 is not complete. However, we find

ourselves relying on next year’s income to finish this year. While miscellaneousincome is some $20,000 behind what we projected, dues income is substantiallyshort of projections. We have many homes currently in foreclosure where banks andmortgage companies have not as yet paid us. Others have vacated their homeswithout forwarding addresses and, while foreclosures will eventually occur and wewill be paid, that will not happen for many months. Others have their homes listedfor sale and will pay us at closing. All this has left a large gap between anticipatedincome and what has been received.

We currently have a reserve fund and all our bills have been paid. Our auditorwill provide us with a final report for the year ending May 31, 2011 and this will beavailable at our August meeting. This has been our most difficult year since I wasfirst elected to your Board in 1999 and we continue to be in good financial shape.

ImportantNumbers & Info

2 THE GOLD KEY NEWS JUNE/JULY 2011

In the May 19, 2011 edition of thePike County Dispatch appeared aninterview by AOCA with DistrictMagistrate Alan B. Cooper concerningcommunity associations. According toMr. Cooper, community association lawin Pike and Wayne counties is differentthan in other parts of the state in that wecontinue to own our roads rather thantownships taking over the roads. He wenton to say that if a member has a legalright to use that private road, thatmember has an obligation to pay his/herfair share.

Communities can go back 20 years tocollect dues and if not paid we can gothrough District Court, obtain a lien, andseize personal property and, if we use aSheriff’s Office, seize bank accounts.

Loose dogs off a member’s propertywithout a leash is a crime. ATV trafficon a community road is a trespassingoffense subject to his court and a $300fine plus expenses and up to 90 days injail.

A copy of the article can be picked up inthe Gold Key Office.

Your Gold KeyAddressBy Francis Ruggiero

In April Gold Key members werenotified that the Pike County 911 and theU.S. Postal Service had changed ouraddresses from the current box address toa 911 address. In one year, mailaddressed the current way without the911 address will not be delivered.

The Board is recommending thatwhen possible members use a four-lineaddress as follows:1. Line One — Your Name2. Line Two — Your current box address3. Line Three — Your 911 Street Address4. Line Four — City/State/ZIP

For example:

Mr. Joe Goldkey2121 Gold Key Estates100 East Lake DriveMilford, PA 18337

It is critical that the 911 address lineappear in the line immediately abovecity/state/zip. If you can only use a threeline address (for instance, on yourtelephone bill), then only use the 911address.

By including your current box addresson the second line, you guarantee themailman will know where to place yourmail.

The Board will keep you updated onthis matter as implementation progresses.

A great time was had by all.Parents were able to capture pictureswith their little one with the EasterBunny. Thanks to all our volunteers forassisting during the egg hunt and craftssession. The kids had a great time.

Everyone loves games and our “INIT TO WIN IT” competition was all ingood fun. We selected five challengesfrom the popular game show for ouryoung competitors to test their abilitiesof balance, dexterity, problem solvingand quick wit.

ObservationsThe winter of 2011

was a good one for thosewho enjoy the snow andcold. There werenumerous opportunities toappreciate the beauty ofsnow falling during astorm and the cold winterair that eventuallyfollows. There was abountiful amount of snow and coldduring the winter of 2011.

There were plenty of birds at GoldKey feeders. Suet feeders wereparticularly active due to the coldtemperatures. A pair of Yellow BelliedSap Suckers stayed all winter. Therewere no winter migrations of Redpolls orPine Siskin noted this year. Otherwise,the standard two dozen different types ofbirds were observed using feeders.Excluding raptors…

The spring bird migration started inMarch. Birds that left our area last fallare now returning to nest. Some warblerspecies are just passing through tobreeding areas further north. The firstEastern Phoebe arrived late March. ThePhoebe is the first fly catcher to returneach spring to Gold Key. The EasternPhoebe has a very distinct call…Theyshout their name... Phoebe! Listen forthem… Common Crackles and Red-Wing Black-birds were the next migrantbirds to return. Turkey Vultures alsoarrived in April. Bald Eagles weresighted on many occasions within GoldKey in April/May. Osprey was alsosighted.

Vocalizations of Spring Peepers werenoted as anticipated in late March.Arrival of the Spring Peepers is a suresign of changing seasons! Other frog andtoad vocalizations were noted comingfrom Green and Bullfrogs. NorthernWater Snakes were observed along thelakeshore. Snakes are harmless. Pleasejust give them some space.

Black bears were regularly sighted inApril and May. On occasion a pack ofcoyotes have been heard in the earlymorning hours. Skunk, Raccoon, andOpossum are around; rabbits and a fewblack squirrels have been sighted. BlackSquirrels are a color phase of the GreySquirrel.

Breeding populations of Large MouthBass were sighted in April/May along theshallow lakeshores of Autumn and FawnLake. Large populations of spawningshiners were observed in the streamoutflow of Fawn Lake in early May.

Gold Key BirdWalksThe Gold Key

Lake andEnvironmentCommitteesponsored a seriesof spring birdwalks within ourcommunity in2011. We walkedthe vicinity of South Beach and the“Misty Cove” area near the Gold KeyLake Dam. The group enjoyedidentifying many resident birds and a fewearly migrants. The best birding day waswhen three mature Bald Eagles flew overthe Gold Key Dam area at tree topheight! We all shared in some goodtimes in the woods. The birds below wereobserved over the three different birdwalks.1. Canada Goose2. Mallard Duck3. Wild Turkey4. Killdeer5. Bald Eagle
