It will be posted in the Hideabout and on the website (http:// www.hideoutassoc.com) for residents to review. Thereafter, residents may express any comments or concerns at the Community Budget Review on December 9 at the POA at 9:00 a.m. I would like to thank the Budget Committee, the Board of Directors, and the Managers for all of the hard work and time that they have put into the 2018 budget process.

General Manager’s Message
Summer activities have been shut down and put away for the cold winter months and we are now getting ready for the opening of the ski hill. This year you will notice a few additions, one being the installation of a pavilion over the ice skating rink, and second, new lighting on the hill itself which will help improve nighttime skiing. A few projects that have been going on within the community are the Brook’s Lake Dredging Project which you can find more details about, including pictures, in the Land & Environmental Manager’s article on page 5. This project was part
of the lakes fiveyear plan. Another ongoing project is replacing crossover culvert pipes during the final stages of the RS&W project. These pipes assist in improving storm water management. I would like to strongly encourage any resident who is around on November 11 to attend the annual Veterans Day Celebration at the Main Lodge at 10:00 a.m. If you have never attended this ceremony, it is a great opportunity to thank all Veterans including local Veterans brought in from the VA in Wilkes Barre. I would like to thank the Help a Hero fund for organizing such an important ceremony. In closing, I want to wish everyone a very happy and safe Thanksgiving. Please take the time to enjoy your family and friends during the holiday. As always, please feel free to contact my office with any questions or concerns you may have. Joe Acla
