The Social Committee is hosting a PLANNING SESSION for 2025 events - Please join us for a Pizza and Salad on Monday January 27th @ 7PM.

• This is different from prior years where planning meetings happened throughout the year

• This year there will be ONE main planning meeting to plan most of the event’s details, with event leaders assigned and planning to take place well in advance.

• This will give us advantages like:

• Better availability for entertainment and rentals which can be booked earlier in the year

• Hopefully, greater involvement from our neighbors who only need to attend ONE meeting to plan this year’s events and then can choose which events they're passionate about to help volunteer later

• Event leaders and committee members will still complete last-minute plans as the event approaches, which should be minimal 

Come enjoy some Cookies with Santa!

Color a festive picture while you wait to meet Santa...

Santa will do some entertaining...

Then you can sit with “the big guy” and share what's on your list...

Have you been good this year? He will let you know!

INTERACTIVE SESSIONS: 4:00 PM  |  5:00 PM  |  6:30 PM  |  7:30 PM  (show, sit, chat, and photo )

Enjoy a treat after you meet Santa. Cookies and juice will be provided

Registration will be required as there are limited spots available.

• A booked slot is required for each child who will be meeting with Santa, to ensure adequate time for everyone participating.

National Night Out is an annual event held at the same time throughout the country. Millions of people in more than 16,800 communities join forces to promote police-community partnerships; crime, drug and violence prevention; safety; and neighborhood unity

We have purchased 100+ CHILD ID KITS FOR OUR KIDS

The National Child Identification Program Inkless Fingerprint I.D. Kit

This is the only In-Home Identification Kit to have partnered with and been approved by the The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).  This kit allows parents to take, store and control their child’s fingerprints/DNA in their own home.

After fingerprinting the child, most parents find it easiest to place the card back into the envelope, if the envelope was destroyed when opening, simply place the fingerprint card in a plastic sandwich bag for safe keeping.  We find most parents keep it with important documents… do not put it in a safety deposit box, you may not have access to it when needed.  Fingerprints are produced using a clear inkless solution, patented process, that leaves no messy black ink or residue on fingers or clothes.

Parents DO NOT NEED to be fingerprint experts – a black fingerprint appears quickly on the identification card when the clear inkless solution makes contact with the coated fingerprint section of the card.

Inkless Fingerprinting Card Instruction

• Step-by-step instructions detailing how to take a fingerprint

• An area to practice fingerprinting

• A standard fingerprint area that can be used by law enforcement

• Applicator containing inkless fingerprinting solution

• Sections for recording the child’s physical description and identifying marks

• Sections for recording medical professional phone numbers

• Space for a CURRENT photograph

The entire fingerprinting process takes approximately five minutes.  If ever needed, the completed identification card can immediately give authorities some vital information they need to assist them in their efforts to locate a missing child.

We are looking for great ideas and volunteers!  Email us if you have an idea and/or want to help!  HOA.BellCreek@gmail.com.  

With every sale of a home, $750 is paid to our capital improvement funds, which the HOA uses to enhance our neighborhood.  Most recently, this has paid for our basketball court, updating our playground, new signage for the roads, and lawn games for social events.

WHAT’S NEXT?  That’s where you come in!

ALL ideas welcome… upgrade clubhouse, a pergola for the pool, benches along the sidewalks…

LET US KNOW YOUR IDEAS.  JOIN THE PLANNING MEETING ON 8/5 @ 6PM.
