Good afternoon.  Please see below for several items for your review. 

Two items are from our current Association contractors. 

There is one request from Atlantic for seasonal lifeguards so if you have anyone who might want to earn money and spend some time at a pool this summer this might be for them!  

The second item is an offer from J&J Landscape Management.  This is the contractor we employ for our community grounds care work.  They are offering to care for your private yards for the season – see the item and link below…
