A Warning and a Request for Shovelers



Warning:  The very heavy snow is causing trees in our community to come crashing down!  


Be very careful when walking under a tree!  Residents have reported hearing cracking noises from the trees overhead.  Be careful!


Please be careful when going out of your home in the next couple of days.  We have had a number of fallen tree limbs due to the heavy weight of the snow and it has become very Dangerous.  Also, please report any major tree limbs that have fallen onto our streets or sidewalks so we can have them removed. 

I was just watching a road crew on Bells Mill Rd. using a chain saw to cut up a tree that was blocking the road.  Please be careful near trees.


I've created an online spreadsheet to connect people who need help shoveling with people who are willing to pay for such help.  The link to this spreadsheet is below.  
We still need more people willing to shovel!  If you can help, please let me know (email address is below) and I'll be happy to pair you with someone who needs help.  If you need help, please send me an email and I'll put you on the list.
I will keep this information updated.  Here is the link to the online spreadsheet of snow shoveling connections:

If any of this information is not correct, please send me an update.
When things settle down, I'd like to get some feedback from the people who participated so we can decide if this network is valuable to the community.

Many thanks to Kevin, Luiz and others who grabbed saws and removed the tree that was blocking our entrance so the snowplows could get in.
And considering the challenge this historic snowstorm brought, kudos to Emerald for doing such a great job. They were out plowing early and often so that the snowcat could do cleanup in very efficient order.
Crossing my fingers we get past Tuesday's storm even easier!
