Hi lakers!

Having been recently elected to the board, I was given the job of Grounds Beautification. Since beauty is in the eye of the beholder - I need your input on the projects you would like to see completed to help make Lake Hiwassee an even better place to live and play.

Please email your ideas and suggestions to me at: hiwasseehome@earthlink.net & I will bring them up for board approval.

By working together, we can improve our unique community, taking advantage of it's natural beauty, to make our surroundings into a showplace we can be proud to call our home.
