Sunland North ballot stuffing

In an undisclosed garage in Sunland North, several volunteers got together on Friday, August 5, to stuff envelopes full of material for the Sunland Division 17 Annual Member Meeting on September 14. While that seems a long way away, we are using mail-in ballots for our Board election and other association decisions this year, and we want to make sure everyone gets their ballots, votes, and mails the ballots back in time to be counted before the annual meeting.

There are nine pages of information, with every page but one printed double-sided. You can expect to see them in your mailbox starting the week of August 7. Please return the ballot and quorum form (the only page printed on a yellow sheet) as soon as possible.

If you live in the Sequim area and don’t get a ballot by August 15, please contact me and I will check into the matter. Out-of-area members should contact me if they don’t receive anything by August 24.

I wish to thank George Bannon, Ronnie Bannon, Rindy Hainstock, Wende Ang, Bob Eifant, Susan Hamman and Tom Hamman for their invaluable help in assembling the meeting packets, placing mailing labels on everything, and then checking the packets to make sure we hadn’t missed anyone. And thank you, Wende, for documenting our work.

Membership packet sheets sorted and counted

Address and return address labels applied

Envelopes stuffed and then rolled flat to reduce trapped air and reduce postage costs

Storm cleanup Monday, January 17

January 13, 2022

A reminder for potential volunteers who would like to participate in the branch cleanup happening next Monday, January 17. Meet at Blakely & Woodcock Road at 10 am with gloves, chainsaws, pruning saws, and other implements of destruction to help load up storm debris for transport to Cascade Bark. I think the weather may have scared everyone; there’s still lots of room for more volunteers!

If you have questions, please write to information@sunlandnorth.org
