CodeRED is no longer the mass notification used in Cherokee County. The RAVE system refers to the (Rave Alert emergency notification platform) that the county uses to send timely alerts to residents about severe weather warnings, evacuation notices, traffic alerts, and other critical information.

Subscribers of the previous mass notification system were uploaded into RAVE in an effort to ensure those who have signed up previously still received critical notifications. Those who were transferred over from CodeRED should have received an email asking them to confirm their email address. If users choose to continue to receive such alerts, they can create a Motorola Rave Alert account and customize their notifications.

New or previous subscribers can sign up for text only alerts by texting CHEROKEEEMA to 226787 or they can sign up through the portal and subscribe to voice, text, and/or email alerts. https://www.smart911.com/smart911/ref/reg.action?pa=cherokeega

WHY SOME CLUB EMAILS MAY BE GOING MISSING

and how to fix it!

If you use Gmail or a Google Workspace email (like a business or organization account through Google), you may have noticed that some of our messages aren’t showing up in your main inbox.

Google has recently made major changes to how emails are filtered. Their system now uses more advanced technology to sort incoming messages and has much stricter standards for what reaches your inbox. Because of this, legitimate emails from schools, nonprofits, businesses, and even individuals can sometimes be redirected.

You might find our messages in your: • Spam folder • Promotions tab • Updates tab

Here are a few simple steps to help deliverability: 1. If you find our email in Spam, open it and click the "Report Not Spam" button at the top of the message (usually in a gray box).

2. If it’s in Promotions or Updates tabs, drag it into your Inbox.

3. Add our email address to your contacts. This helps Google recognize that you want to hear from us. You may have previously done this step, but with the changeover to our new @lakearrowheadclub.net email accounts, you may need to do it again. See the staff list on page 3 for our updated emails.

Taking these steps tells your email system that our messages are important to you, and it will improve delivery over time. Please note that is not a one-time fix. Google intellegence will eventually learn but it will take some time and repetition to do so.

We’re continuing to monitor this on our end, but these changes are happening across many organizations - not just ours. Thank you for taking a moment to help ensure you stay connected and don’t miss important updates.

C LU B BU SI N E S S MARINA PAVILION RULES

RULES OF THE LAKE

HOURS OF OPERATION The Marina Pavilion will be open dawn to dusk or during sanctioned LAYCC events.

1. All requirements set forth in the Georgia Boating Safety Act shall apply on Lake Arrowhead lakes (Lake Arrowhead and Lake Chickasaw). This includes carrying life preservers for passengers and crew.

2. Only registered watercraft displaying a current Lake Arrowhead registration decal are permitted on Lake Arrowhead lakes.

3. All watercraft operating in the northern part of Lake Arrowhead, as well as other areas with NO WAKE buoys, must use a speed that generates no wake.

4. The body of water viewed from the Marina area (a.k.a. main lake) is an all sports area. All motorized watercraft are to follow a COUNTER CLOCKWISE direction.

5. At slow speeds, traffic can go in either direction on the lake ONLY in these locations: Within 100 ft North of the dam, within 100 ft South of the Narrows "No Wake Buoys", and in the middle on an East/West straight line to/from "Honeymoon Cove."

6. All watercraft pulling people (i.e. skier, tuber, etc.) must have either two (2) persons aboard (one driver and one safety observer at least 12 years of age) or the watercraft MUST be equipped with a wide angle rear view mirror so the driver is aware of the location of the person being pulled at all times. All people being pulled MUST wear approved U.S Coast Guard life vests.

7. The number of skiers is limited to two (2) per boat at the same time. As soon as one skier drops the second skier must drop immediately thereafter. Skiers should raise one (1) ski, wakeboard, or kneeboard while in water with a slack towline to warn other boats in the area.

8. All occupants of canoes, rowboats, hydro­bikes, paddle-boats, SUPs, kayaks, etc., should wear appropriate life vests. These vessels should stay close to a shore (Georgia law requires children 10 and under to wear a life jacket at all times on a boat unless the child is in an enclosed cabin).

9. All watercraft must use running lights after sundown. Use docking lights when approaching a docking area only, they can be blinding to other boaters.

10. Swimming in the lake is not permitted in and around the Marina area other than in the designated Swimming Area. All children, below a responsible age, swimming in the lake must wear a life vest and be supervised by an adult 18 years of age or older.

11. Personal watercraft (i.e. Jet Skis, Wave Runners, SeaDoos, and eFoils) are PROHIBITED on Lake Arrowhead.

12. Drunkenness, drug use, rowdy behavior, obscene language and littering are not permitted on the lakes.

13. All powered watercraft users should slow down when passing close to anglers, non­motorized watercraft and swimmers on rafts/tubes and minimize their wakes in coves as well. Ski boats or other high speed watercraft running parallel to NO WAKE areas should move farther out from the NO WAKE buoys so that they do not produce a potentially dangerous wake in the designated NO WAKE areas.

FOOD & BEVERAGE Food and beverages are allowed to be carried onto the Pavilion. No glass bottles or beer kegs are permitted. No grilling or preparation of food is allowed. All trash must be placed in the trash receptacles on the shore.

PERSONAL CHAIRS Property owners are allowed to bring their own folding chairs on to the Pavilion. They must be taken with you when you leave, i.e. chairs cannot be left behind.

ATTIRE Members and guests shall dress in attire befitting the surroundings of the community. Extremely revealing attire, such as a thong, is not suitable for the family atmosphere of the Marina Pavilion.

NO SWIMMING No swimming is permitted from the Marina Pavilion or docks anywhere in the “No Wake” zone.

No running or diving is permitted from the Pavilion or docks.

NO FISHING No fishing is allowed from the Marina Pavilion or docks.

BOATS Boats can tie up on the side of the walkway only where there are cleats and cannot at any time tie up to the Pavilion.

Maximum time at the walkway is 1 hour (or 15 minutes if others are waiting). These areas are intended for drop off and pickup.

PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES No grilling, skateboarding, bicycles, rollerblading, sunbathing, or feeding the wildlife is permitted on the Marina Pavilion or docks.

PETS Pets are not allowed on the Marina Pavilion.

DRY STORAGE A free dry storage decal has been mailed to those who rent a space. This decal must be visible and placed on an item.

In addition each trailer, camper, RV, motorhome and watercraft must also display a current decal. If you drive it, you need a vehicle decal. If you have a trailer/camper, you need a trailer/other decal. Vehicle decals ARE available at the South Gate and all others at the Administration office. All items MUST display a current decal to continue using a Lake Arrowhead Dry Storage and Boat Slip. As a reminder, it is a violation of the covenants to park or store the following: boats, vehicles, trailers, campers, RVs, etc. on your property.

Agreements may be terminated at any time due to past due accounts. page 12

The Lake Arrowhead Lake Committee, a group of resident volunteers working under the direction of Mike Ludden (committee chairman) and Kim Jordan (LAPOA Board Member), have assembled some important lake topics: LAKE RULES / NO WAKE ZONES Rules regarding the safe operation of watercraft on Lake Arrowhead can be found in a number of different places - this magazine, Club Rules and Regulations, the LAPOA website, and finally in "Lake Information" brochures which are widely available. Our lake is small and boat traffic is growing so it is critical that all boat operators familiarize themselves with these rules. As excessive speed in NO WAKE areas remains the #1 reported concern, a modification to our "no wake" guidance has been implemented for 2026: All watercraft operating in the northern part of Lake Arrowhead, in any cove, as well as in other areas designated with NO WAKE buoys, must operate at a speed of less than 5 MPH and which generates no wake for the protection of people and property.

Additionally, in accordance with Georgia Law, boats must operate at idle (slowest forward) speed within 100 feet of any shoreline, dock, other vessel, or persons in the water. Boat operators are reminded that they are responsible for any damage caused by their wakes.

SHORELINE EROSION Boats travelling at excessive speed too close to the eastern shore of Lake Arrowhead are contributing to shoreline erosion.

Operators are reminded to maintain a safe minimum distance from shoreline (at least 100' per Georgia Law) while underway. Towing especially results in boat wakes that are larger and more destructive. Boat drivers are reminded to operate their boats as close to the center of the lake as possible to minimize shoreline damage in accordance with Lake Arrowhead policy.

BOAT & TRAILER REGISTRATION ALL boats and ALL watercraft (kayaks, canoes, paddle boats, paddleboards, waterbikes, etc), as well as trailers, are required to have a current registration sticker which must be posted on the vessel or on the paddle of an inflatable craft. Operators of motorized boats are required to provide proof of liability insurance with limits not less than $300,000 in support of their registration requests. Registration forms can be accessed on-line at lakearrowheadclub. net, or in-person at either security gate, or from the Administration office. Compliance with boat/ watercraft/trailer registration policy has been lacking in recent years. Residents are reminded that these fees, while nominal, are mandatory and help care for our most valuable community amenity. And the insurance verification required for ALL motorized boats is in place for everyone's protection.

LAYC BOAT CLUB The LAYC Pontoon Club offers an exclusive opportunity for Lake Arrowhead residents to enjoy the lake without the hassle of boat ownership. Homeowners may join the club with an annual membership commitment of $120 for the year. Membership does not renew automatically.

Enrollment is open to all property owners in good standing, providing a cost-effective way to access our fleet of well-maintained pontoon boats. The boathouse operates 4 new / nearly-new pontoon boats for exclusive use by boat club members. Do you like to fish but are frustrated with the limited areas to fish from the shore? Join the boat club and chase the big ones out in the deep water. Do you enjoy swimming in the crystal clear water of Lake Arrowhead but don't care for the crowds at the swim area? Join the boat club and cruise with your family and friends to picnic and swim in a secluded cove.

Contact the Administration office for information and to sign up. New to boating? All new memberships include free lessons (a $450 value).

BOATHOUSE SERVICES / KAYAK RACKS Capt Rob's staff is available to assist with boat rentals as well as powerboat, sailboat, and kayak instruction. In addition, 24 new kayak racks have been installed for resident rental at the marina. Contact the boathouse at boatsforrent@gmail.com for information. The boathouse is open from mid April to mid November (by rental appointment and weather permitting). And for 2026, the boathouse is modifying their hours of operation to accept rentals from 10 AM to 7 PM seven days a week - opening earlier on Sunday in response to resident requests.

SHORT-TERM RENTAL ORDINANCE CHEROKEE COUNTY, GEORGIA Cherokee County, Georgia has recently adopted an ordinance regarding short-term rentals. The full ordinance is available at cherokeega.com/ ShortTermRentalOrdinanceCherokeeCounty20210806. pdf, but we wanted to make each property owner aware of this ordinance and have highlighted a few of the key points in the ordinance.

1. The purpose of the ordinance is to establish standards for short-term rentals of privately-owned residential structures rented to transient occupants, minimize adverse effects of short-term rental uses on surrounding residential neighborhoods, and preserve the character of residential neighborhoods.

2. A certificate is required to lawfully rent, operate, or advertise any property for short-term rental. a. Owners must apply to the Cherokee County Development Services Center on an annual basis for a certificate. b. Certificates require an initial administration fee and annual renewal fees.

3. The Certificate number must be listed in any advertisement for the rental of the property.

4. No short-term rental shall offer more than five (5) bedrooms for rent.

5. The use of outdoor speakers by short-term rentals is prohibited.

6. The number of occupants shall not exceed two persons per bedroom plus two additional persons.

7. The short-term rental must have parking off the street sufficient for one car for each bedroom being rented.

Parking shall only be on designated hard surfaced areas.

8. Quiet hours are 12:00 a.m. midnight to 7:00 a.m. daily, 12:00 a.m. midnight Saturday to 1:00 p.m.

Sunday).

9. The Cherokee County Marshal’s office (678.493.4080) is tasked with enforcement of the ordinance.

ARCHITECTURAL EXTERIOR WORK POLICY

CREDIT CARD PROCESSING FEES On November 11, 2025, we upgraded our credit card processing system. This change was necessary to offer you an additional, more convenient payment method: ACH withdrawals directly from your bank account. As part of the transition, all previously stored credit card information has been deleted from the old processor’s secure servers.

CRITICAL ACTION REQUIRED: If you use a credit card for recurring monthly payments, you must visit or call the Administration Office at 770-721-7912 so we can re-enter your credit card information or assist you in selecting a different payment method.

We would also like to inform you of an important upcoming change: beginning January 1, 2026, a 2.95% convenience fee will be applied to all charges on accounts paid with a credit card. This fee will not appear until your account is charged on January 30, 2026. Please note that payments made by check or through the new ACH option will not incur this fee. Additionally, the convenience fee will not apply to purchases made in the Pro Shop or Grill when you pay as you go by credit card. The fee will only apply to maintenance fees and items charged to your account that are paid by credit card at the end of the month.

Please be aware that any maintenance fees paid by credit card, regardless of when the payment is made, will incur the convenience fee.

After extensive review, the LAPOA Board and LAYCC management determined that this change is necessary. The Club currently absorbs all credit card processing fees, which are projected to exceed $200,000 this year alone. Redirecting these costs will allow us to allocate more funds back into the community—most significantly toward infrastructure improvements.

When an Exterior Work Permit is approved, the owner will be sent an 8 ½ x 11 permit that shall be placed in a window on the first floor of the property. The blue permit sign indicates that work on the property was reviewed and approved by the Architectural Review Committee.

ATTENTION PROPERTY OWNERS WHO RENT OUT YOUR HOME: Please notify your tenants that all Resident Guests (all those who rent, lease, or otherwise occupy a home which they do not legally own) are required to renew. $50 PER ADULT ON THE LEASE Call Member Services at 770.721.7912 Mon-Fri 9:00am to 5:00pm for an appointment.

2026 MEMBER – MEMBER On July 18th & 19th, 42 Lake Arrowhead golf members played in the 2026 Member – Member Golf Tournament. Always competitive, this year’s tournament was no exception. Bill Maynard & Brian Schell won the low gross score honors! Sean Webb & Jeff Howell won the overall low net score.

The Member – Member Golf Tournament is an annual event where golf club members form 2-person teams to compete for trophies and prizes plus the honor of being named Tournament Champions for the year. The tournament format is known by several names (four ball, best ball, and better ball) but whatever it is called, it essentially requires each team member to play their own ball. At the end of each hole, the lowest individual score is recorded as the team score. This year’s tournament was divided into 3 SUBSCRIBE TO LAKE ARROWHEAD NEWS flights and the winners were: 1ST FLIGHT 1st Place Gross – Brian Schell & Bill Maynard 2nd Place Gross – Cash Burchett & Cole Burchett 3rd Place Gross – Brad Jones & Herb Ernst 1st Place Net – Sean Webb & Jeff Howell 2nd Place Net – Jeff Ciupak & Mel Standley 3rd Place Net – Jonathan Finley & Brian Dicks 2ND FLIGHT 1st Place Gross – Rick Salese & Mike Price 2nd Place Gross – Vic Martin & Dave Davis 3rd Place Gross – Chris Colello & Kyle Newton 1st Place Net – Randy Johnson & Jeff Bedard 2nd Place Net – Mike Wells & Duane Waldo 3rd Place Net – Bob Sorrentino & Mike Heath For full results please go to: https://www.golfgenius.com/ggid/kst64l

C OMMU N I T Y I N T E RE ST READING FOR THE AGES by Jeanne Schwartz Here One Moment | Liane Moriarty | Crown Publishing You could wait for the TV series (likely starring Nicole Kidman) or you could spend some delicious page-turning time with Liane Moriarty’s latest installment in the destined-for-TV novel, Here One Moment.

Moriarty has occasionally been pigeon-holed as a “Women’s fiction” writer, although as one reviewer noted, this book is as “demographically diverse as a phone book.” That’s because the action unfolds on a plane flight from Hobart to Sydney (a flight I took in February)! A quiet woman, neatly dressed and with hair “the soft silver of an expensive kitten,” stands up in her seat 45 minutes after takeoff. “I expect catastrophic stroke,” she proclaims with no particular flair, pointing to a preoccupied 50-something man on a laptop. “Age 72.”

The “Death Lady” as she will come to be known, proceeds down the aisle of the plane, pointing at each person in turn and predicting the age they’ll be when they die and the cause of their deaths.

Age 30, assault, for the hipster. Age 7, drowning, for the baby in arms. Age 43, workplace accident, for a 42-year-old civil engineer. Self-harm, age 28, for the lovely flight attendant, who is that day celebrating her 28th birthday. “Fate won’t be fought!” she exclaims whenever a person talks back to her.

When she reflects on the moment, Cherry Lockwood, aka “The Death Lady” calls to mind the “butterfly effect” which posits that a very small random act can result in unforeseen consequences a world away.

Cherry thinks: “That day, on the flight from Hobart to Sydney, I was the butterfly, Actually, I was the less poetic seagull. That seems more apt. I walked through that plane squawking my predictions, flapping my wings, and my actions had consequences, which had consequences, which had consequences. I was an agent of chaos.”

The book follows half a dozen or so passengers: Allegra, the flight attendant whose beauty masks crippling self-doubt, is given a prediction of self-harm within the page 28

year. Paula, a young mother with a toddler and a baby and dormant OCD, has it reawakened with a vengeance, as she is told her baby will die of drowning at age 7.

Leo, (43, workplace accident) whose hunger to be the best provider-husband-fatheremployee might actually be the death of him. He is on the flight to see his daughter Birdie’s school musical and the 2- hour delay means he is going to miss it.

Each passenger takes the prediction in a different way, and the book explores deep philosophical questions: fate vs. free will, grief, and the struggle to maintain control in an uncertain world. Cherry, herself, has come to this place having being raised by a father who insisted she learn math, and a mother who earned her living telling people’s fortunes. Cherry learned that the belief that the probability of future events changes based on past events (assuming those events are independent) is known as the Monte Carlo fallacy, or the gambler’s fallacy. That coin has landed on heads 40 times, so the 41st must be tails. Nope. She was intrigued.

A few months later, one passenger dies exactly as she predicted. Then two more passengers die, again, as she said they would. Soon no one is thinking this is simply an entertaining story at a cocktail party. Social media lights up, and everyone who has been given a prediction starts looking at their lives a bit differently. Paula, for example, obsesses over swimming lessons for her son, tossing him into the pool as soon as she is off the plane. At the funeral for a couple whose deaths had been predicted accurately, she recognizes Eve, who had still been in her wedding gown on the plane, but who received a prediction of intimate partner homicide. The two of them launch into researching who the Death Lady is.

Cherry occupies alternating chapters throughout the book, as a slow burn reveals to us who she is, and how and why she bestowed predictions on a plane full of people. There is a very twisty ending. Enjoy.
