Please note that there is a Policy in place in the situation where you share a Driveway with CHOA and you need to replace it:

Over 50 people attended the Grand Opening of the CHOA Putting Green on Monday, August 20th. Sparkling cider was served along with cookies. The ribbon cutting ceremony started at 6:30 and the putting contest followed thereafter. The top 3 placers all got a prize and the rest of us the realization that we need to start practicing our putting more! Now we have a place close by to do that.
Special Thanks for Karen Siegel for leading this effort.
Please note that CHOA has replaced all of the Common Area outside lighting on your homes (normally front and back) with new low energy LED light bulbs. In addition to saving 50% on the cost of the LED bulbs due to a program by the Energy Trust of Oregon, it is estimated that our neighbors will save a combined $9000 in electricity costs per year. Nice work by Steve Chinn and his team here.
Please note that we now have a lot of old light bulbs that we are not sure what to do with. Any ideas?
Please join CHOA for the Grand Opening of the new CHOA PUTTING GREEN Monday, August 20th at 6:00 to 7:30 pm
There will be cookies and punch along with a putting contest. Come and test your putting skills against your neighbors! You might even win a prize! Please remember to bring your Putter if you want to enter this contest.
Please note that there is limited parking in the area. Please plan to drive your golf cart, walk (on the sidewalks/roads, not the golf course) or park over in the Villages parking lot. We will have a shuttle golf cart to take you back and forth between the parking lot to the event. The shuttle will run from 5:30 to 7:45 pm.
The CHOA Putting Green is located off Red 9 fairway and behind the Sacajawea Pool.
Hope to see you there!
Please note that we are fortunate to have Pools close by with all this hot summer weather. With the heavy use of the pools, we wanted to remind everyone to please remember and follow the Rules for the Pools to make this a pleasant experience for all involved. The most important thing is to be considerate of others enjoying the pools with you.

Please note that one of our neighbors had an issue with their electrical panel and we wanted you to be aware in case you are in this situation also. It appears to apply to Charbonneau homes that have not been significantly renovated.
Here is the note: “We are having some electrical work done and the electrician pointed out that our electrical panel is on a Federal recall list and a safety and fire hazard. The panel was made by the now-defunct Federal Pacific. An article about its panels is attached”. (see link below).
“We are having our panel replaced in the coming week. The cost is $1845 which could be a surprise and burden for some residents. In any case, I thought you should know, if you didn’t already”.
These Federal Pacific electrical panels are the same ones we replaced at the CHOA pools last year.
Please note that we are having our Grand Re-Opening for the new Upgraded Murphy’s Green on Monday, August 20th at 6 pm. Stay tuned for additional details!
Please note that Garron Grounds will again be placing Lady Bugs in the large leaf Maples and Linden trees for aphid control. The “ladies” can eat up to 50 aphids a day and are a safe and natural method for aphid control.
The lady bugs are placed in the trees in the evening hours in small bags. They move out of the bags into their new homes where the food supply is plentiful. So if you see the little bags in the trees please don’t remove them.
