A Note from PIHA’s Board of Directors – August 2024

Hello to our wonderful membership community.

There is a time and a season for everything. The seasons change, people change and things change at PIHA as we greet and welcome transitions in our association.

Our July board meeting transitioned to your new Board of Directors. This list and all Committees can be found on the website, presqueisleharbor.org, “About Us” tab-Board of Directors.

Another transition is coming as the search committee has posted on LinkedIn and Indeed, with the requirements for a new Executive Director. Phil Rabeau has retired, leaving his position as campground manager. At this time, Dennis Cleary has agreed to assist with the Campground until a replacement can be hired. We have hired additional maintenance and clubhouse staff and continue to accept applications for the clubhouse and Grand Lake Beach attendants. If you know anyone who can fill these positions, word of mouth is our best resource. Pauline Lang has temporarily assumed additional duties until an Executive Director is hired.

The pool has been a concern. The roof repair has been completed, the pool has been reopened, however, the pool needs to be replaced. To date, two companies have offered explanations of proposed pool options. The pool committee is working to survey members, find a permanent solution and discuss the financial aspects.

We hope you continue to focus on the Presque Isle Harbor Association website and Facebook for any adjustment to hours, notices, and events since it is full of membership information.

Are you planning to build anything? The Architectural Committee needs to hear from you; they will help you regarding the procedure and forms to be submitted. The form can be found on the Website, presqueisleharbor.org, “Owners” tab-Rule Book/Policy Book-Rule 20. We are working to make this easier with a printable PDF.  At this time you will need to request the form be sent to you or pick one up at the Clubhouse.

We hope you will be patient and understanding as we transform and make changes. We are working diligently for our membership. If you have questions, please reach out to the Board of Directors.

Enjoy each day.

Respectfully,

Vickie Fields
PIHA BOD President
