For the past several years we have been unable to have official committee meetings, due to lack of interest, for all committees except for our Golf Committee which remains very active. I cannot stress enough how important our committees are. It’s where the changes you want to see happen… but we can’t do it without YOU!

Pocono Farms has 5 standing committees that run August thru July, although you can join anytime. They ideally meet once a month for about one hour.

Our 5 standing committees are as follows:

A&B / Environmental / Crime Watch: The Architectural & Building Committee’s purpose is to guide construction and land use in Pocono Farms to preserve the natural beauty of the area and to protect property values. To meet this objective the Committee performs the functions of review, approval, or disapproval of building plans. In cooperation with the General Manager, it oversees enforcement of Architectural & Building rules and regulations, and makes recommendations to the Board of Directors concerning application and modification of those rules.

Communications / LRP (Long Range Planning): The mission of the Official Publication Committee shall be to communicate to the membership, pertinent information, relative to Pocono Farms and Coolbaugh Township issues, in a responsible and timely manner, by paper, bulletin board, phone call, special meeting, or any other means.

Finance: The mission of the Finance Committee is to advise the Board on matters related to the financial affairs of Pocono Farms, reviewing budgets and capital requirements as proposed by management. The Finance Committee may be asked to undertake a special project or assignment requested by the Board. Upon review the Finance Committee may recommend budget changes to the Board.

Recreation / Tennis / Pool / Fitness: The Recreation Committee’s objective and purpose is to plan and coordinate the recreational activities at Pocono Farms.

Golf: The mission/ purpose of the Golf Committee is to plan, develop, implement and monitor all activities, events, and programs associated with the Pocono Farms golf operations and represent, solicit and communicate to the membership of Pocono Farms all pertinent information relating to golf.

Applications can be found at the Administration Office, or on our website, www.poconofarms.com under the Resources tab, then Documents in the Resident section of the site. We’re all volunteers, please get involved!

COMMUNITY REMINDER HOUSEHOLD TRASH & RECYCLING Household trash and recycling cans are picked up every Tuesday. Cans need to be out at the end of your driveway, 3 feet apart, with the handles facing your home by 6:00AM. Cans must be brought in by 6:00PM. At times due to weather and delays beyond County Waste’s control, the “normal” pick up time and route may vary. To avoid having your cans missed, please have them out by 6:00AM. If you cannot have your cans out by 6:00AM for pick up, our compactor, located at The Maintenance Yard off Kilmer Drive, is open Wednesday & Friday from 8:00AM – 12:00PM and Sunday from 10:00AM – 2:00PM where you can bring your household trash and recycling.
