Free Light Bulbs for any who would like to pick them up at Rec Hall C front foyer

Recently CHOA replaced all of the Common Area outside lighting on your homes (normally front and back) with new low energy LED light bulbs. See POST from August 17th.

We now have a lot of old “working” light bulbs.  We investigated what to do with the bulbs and have not found a solution.

Since these are good bulbs we thought we would offer the bulbs to the residents.  If you would like to take advantage of this offer, the light bulbs will be in a tub at Rec Hall C foyer.  Bring a sack and take what you can use.

The Light bulbs will be in the Rec Hall Foyer starting Monday 9/24
