LAKE HAUTO CLUB NEWSLETTER PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE By Kenneth Snyder As I am writing this newsletter and looking out the window, it is still snowing, what’s new! If it is not snowing, the temperature is below zero, or both. The maintenance crew has been working diligently since before Christmas to keep our roads safe and fit. Since January 1, 2015, the maintenance crew has had 27 weather events. We used seven tandems of anti-skid (154 tons of anti-skid and 66 tons of salt), to say the least, it was a tough winter and first day of spring. In between snowstorms, the maintenance crew has reconstructed the community center meeting room. More to come on that subject, later in the newsletter. Roads: Now that the assessment has passed, we can move forward on planning the road repair/resurfacing. The $163,000 for this will come from the $65,000 assessment, $58,000 capital reserve and $40,000 of this year’s budget. We are going to send the request for bids out in the coming weeks. I hope the road project will continue on for many years to come. Potholes are a major problem, not only in Lake Hauto, but everywhere. This was a very hard winter, one of the hardest in decades. We are not isolated from this, we have been temporarily filling the potholes on Lake Drive and are planning to get cold patch to fix the potholes. My hope was to start the potholes in mid-March with the cold patch, but with the weather and storms, this just did not happen. The maintenance crew is doing their best with the conditions mother nature provides them. We’ve been pursuing Nesquehoning to replace a portion of Tippets Road they own. In the meantime, the road is starting to get impassable. I would hope they are going to patch it this year. When Nesquehoning provides us with their intentions, we will be sure to inform you. Parking: Do not park on the roads or the cul-de-sacs of Lake Hauto. Lake Drive is only 19 feet wide and the culde-sacs are only 12 feet wide. Some driveways are wider than that, so when you park on the roads, we give very little space for cars to get by in the summer and when we are plowing in the winter. Please park on your property for the safety of all. “O” Beach: Construction was put on hold until after winter. The first thing we are going to do this year is investigate a seawall down at the edge of the water. This LAKE HAUTO CLUB SPRING 2015 Editor: Kim Thomas will do two things: (1) Stop the sand from going into the lake and (2) Raise the beach about 2 feet higher. The beach area now is at water level and causing some swampy areas. Eastwood Beach: This spring we are going to put ground cover plants on the bank from the back of the beach house up to the tennis courts. A new $11,000 piece of playground equipment will be installed this year. We will be removing the older sliding board and merry-go-round for safety reasons. Crescent Beach: We will be putting a fishing dock on the east-end of the beach area. The dock is finished and ready to go as soon as the weather breaks and the other docks go in. Oakwood Beach: A new toddler swing is being installed and we are taking down the sliding board that is no longer safe for children to use. All beaches will be getting a fresh coat of sand. We are going to have the option to reserve picnic tables at the beaches this year. Please call the club office to learn how you can reserve your table this summer. Dam Maintenance: It has been completed and will be inspected this year. We have taken out all the loose rocks on the face of the dam and put them back by floating them in concrete. We also grounded out the cracks on the spillway and put in a special caulking. All the maintenance that was completed is functioning as designed. All that work was done by our maintenance crew. Some days it was so cold that when the water came out of the hose, it froze. This was a tough job due to the weather and standing on an angle on the face of the dam, but we had to do it. For rentals of the special equipment and for materials the cost was about $25,818. It was estimated if we had to hire outside contractors, the cost would be in the area of $100,000. Security: Our 2015 budget for security is the same as last year. There’s a new camera on Crescent that will pan the beach area. Our community has security that some large municipalities wish they had. Gates: The gates are working fine. The maintenance crew has been opening the gates on stormy days to protect them from someone sliding into them. If at times the gates are not working, please call the office at (570) 645-7100 during office hours or 570-751-6512 after hours to report the problem and maintenance will attend to the problem. Recreation: We have planned for 2015, an Easter egg hunt, a Halloween party, a Christmas party and a fishing derby at Birch Pools. This year we will have bands at the beaches, two fireworks displays and a clambake. Ninety PAGE 1 SPRING 2015 President’s Message continued: percent of entertainment and party funds are donated. The small amount not donated is paid from the budget. I would like to thank the people that financially support these great summer events. Legal: We have two lawsuits in process: (1) The Griffith’s drain is on Lake Hauto club property and she want us to pay for it and (2) An accident occurred at Lake Drive and Rt. 54. Our insurance company is handling that. I don’t want to go into these in more detail because one is in court and the other lawsuit will be in court. Member Picnic: Our picnic this year will be August 1, 2015. James Demetriades, Jr. is the chairperson for the picnic this year, as he was last year. He is looking for volunteers to help. If you would like to help, call the office at (570) 645-7100 and express your interest. This picnic requires a committee of 10 to make it successful, so please call and help James. Community Center: We have taken out the louver windows in the coffee shop and the library, this saved us a lot of heat this winter, due to the fact that they actually never closed. The meeting room was renovated by removing the chandeliers and fluorescent lights. New in-ceiling lighting, including recessed lighting, was added. We installed plasterboard over all the paneling and painted. We installed new energy-efficient low E glass windows. The floor was leveled before we installed new carpet. Tile was installed at the entrance door to extend the wear of the carpet. We also replaced the front double doors and accented the entrance with stone. We hope to start phase 2, which is the coffee shop and library—new energy-efficient low E glass windows and doors in the library and the coffee shop. This will give the front of the building a whole new look. Also, completely refurbish the restrooms with all new fixtures, new floor, lights, paint, making the doors wider and paint the entire coffee shop. Lily pads will be harvested this year. We were hoping to rent a machine, but the machine is too large for the Lake and very expensive to rent. We are investigating different options and will be making a decision at the April or May workshop, which in turn will be brought up at the regular meeting. At the next workshop meeting, a consultant will provide us with options that make sense for Lake Hauto. Rush Township has plans to install guardrails from the main entrance down to our property line. They also gave us approximately 44 tons of salt to do Lake Drive from our property line to Route 54. Leaf dump has been pushed back and will be open by code as every year. This seemed to be working fine. No plastic bags, lumber, building material, stumps or large LAKE HAUTO CLUB rocks. This is for leaves only. Reserves: For the past year, we were able to put money in reserves. We put approximately $58,000 into reserves that were intended to use for new roads. As you must realize, with the major projects like—lily pads, gates, roads, leaf dump, community center, recreation, security, dam, beaches, restrooms, comes a great deal of everyday maintenance. The Club employs two full-time employees in the winter and adds four part-time in the summer. They get a tremendous amount of work done to ensure our community remains one we are proud of. As of finishing this newsletter, the sun is out and it’s 50°, so I have to say Spring is here. Have a great spring and summer and remember when you play, play safe. Fishing By Bob Davidovich The fishing last year was the best that I have experienced since the “big draw down”. The fish population has recovered well. We are planning to continue stocking the lake with yellow perch, crappies, blue gills and largemouth bass. We will also be stocking shiners for feeder fish. These fish will be stocked as soon as possible after “ice out”. The colder the water, there is less of a chance of hurting the fish. Trout season this year is April 4th for the southern tier and April 18th for the northern tier. Start time is 8:00 AM. We have decided to stock between 300 – 400 trout for April 18th at Birch Pools. The pond will be closed the week prior to April 18th and off limits to fishermen until the morning of the 18th. The Children’s Fishing Derby will once again be held at Birch Pools on Saturday May 16th from 9:00 AM till noon. The registration fee for the derby will $2.00 per child. Registration will be at the club office. We will stock trout with tags and have prizes, snacks and refreshments for the children. The pond will be closed starting on May 11th, which be posted, to allow stocking of trout for the derby. Although the “formal derby” will end at noon, the pond will remain closed to adults, fishing for children only until Monday May 25th. Any child registered for the derby will be able to bring the tag from any trout caught to the office and receive a prize for the entire week. We want to thank all the sponsors of last year’s derby. Your generosity has allowed us to stock more fish and purchase great prizes for the children. Anyone wishing to make a donation for the derby can do so at the club office. A $25.00 donation covers the cost of a trout with a tag and a prize. Any donation will be greatly appreciated. Thank you once again for making this community event a success. PAGE 2 SPRING 2015 The palomino was caught the first weekend of December by member Lou Cichon and it measured 22 inches. Other trout were caught and released. Being in the pond for that long and feeding off of natural food, really made the colors brilliant. Especially the red stripe and fins. Children’s Fishing Derby May 16th At Birch Pools $2.00 per child. Register in the club office LAKE HAUTO CLUB PAGE 3 SPRING 2015 This is a rough sketch of the lake indicating the direction in which all motorized boats must travel. Motorized boats must travel in a counter clockwise direction around the designated ski area. Water skiing and tubing is only permitted in the center designated ski area. Motorized boats not skiing are not permitted in the ski area unless they are pulling a skier or someone in the tube. The “No Wake” area means exactly that, your boat should be going slow enough to not produce a wake. Following these boating rules will only help to make our lake a safer place. BOAT STICKERS BOAT RESTRICTIONS All 2015 stickers MUST be placed on both sides of the boat in full view without having to move any personal equipment (such as covers). Security will assume that the boat does not have a sticker and the board will possibly fine the member for not displaying the sticker within full view. There are 2 different types of stickers this year. Rectangular stickers are for the boats over 10 horsepower. The Registration number will be written on the sticker and must match the registration number on the boat. The cost of this registration is $36.00. The triangular sticker is for the boat under 10 horsepower, including no engine. The cost of this registration is $12.00. REMINDER— The 2015 Road Assessment bills were mailed. The fee is $100.00 per lot. The payment is due by April 15, 2015. Starting April 16, 2015 there will be an additional $25.00 late fee per lot that will be added to the initial bill.

LAKE HAUTO CLUB PAGE 16 SPRING 2015 SUMMER ENTERTAINMENT UPDATE Dear Members, As you see, we have started to book entertainment for this summer. We have booked 2 fireworks shows and a few bands. However, your generosity is necessary to make this happen. We need your donations as soon as possible in order to know the budget that we have to work with and how many bands we can afford. We are looking for sponsorships once again from the community as well as our local businesses. This year we would like to once again recognize the generous individuals and businesses throughout the entire summer. Rather than sponsoring a single band or event, you will be helping to sponsor the entire summer of events. We fully intend on recognizing these generous members with a large sponsorship banner recognizing them, as well as verbal recognition at each of our entertainment events. We feel that this is an attractive advertising opportunity for members’ businesses as well as an opportunity for the community to say "thank you" to generous donors and helpful members. These donations will be used exclusively for the bands, fireworks, and all summer entertainment activities. Your generosity is greatly appreciated. If you wish for your donation to be ONLY for one activity (Fireworks or Bands), please indicate on your donation. Sponsorship classifications are as follows but not limited to: Bronze - $10-99 Silver - $100-199 Gold - $200-499 Platinum - $500-$999 Diamond - $1000 and up All checks should be made payable to Lake Hauto Club. Donations may be submitted to: Lake Hauto Club, 140 Maple Terrace, Nesquehoning, PA 18240. If you have any questions, please contact the office at 570-645-7100. We are enclosing a return envelope for your convenience. Please indicate how you would like your name or business’ name to appear on the banner: _____________________________________________________________________________________ ________ EITHER ACTIVITY _________ BANDS ONLY __________ FIREWORKS ONLY Please remember that any all donations help out a great deal - thank you for your kind consideration to helping make the summer of 2015 a great one!

That includes leaves, tree limbs, and grass clippings. NOT PERMITTED: tires, concrete, stumps, railroad ties garbage or tree trunks. The dumpsters at the beaches are not for the disposing of your household garbage. Violators will be fined. DO NOT deposit your grass clippings and/or leaves in the greenbelt areas or the lake itself. Use fertilizers and pesticides sparingly - if at all - and follow package directions carefully when determining how much of a product to use. Landscape using native plants. Natives require less fertilizer and fewer pesticides to look their best. LAKE HAUTO CLUB 1. Real Estate: a.

Recreation tags need to be worn whenever members are using any Recreation Areas. There are many new members and this makes it easier on everyone to know that you are a member. No one is exempt from this rule no matter how long you have lived here. 2. Boat Stickers need to be on both sides of the boat towards the rear of the boat. Security will be inspecting all boats. Boats may not be launched without the stickers. 3. Recreational Vehicles must be registered with the club and the stickers must be visible. Drivers must possess a valid drivers license. 4. Speed Limits will be checked periodically. The speed limit on Lake Drive is 25 miles per hour and on the side streets, it is 15 miles per hour.
