Who is Stanley?

If you’ve lived in Harbour Point for more than 5 minutes you’ve probably heard the name Stanley mentioned more than a few times! But how many of you really know Stanley or what he does every day? Did you know that he has been at Harbour Point from the very early days? He worked on various construction projects in the neighborhood including the building of the clubhouse, and he has been here ever since! As a community we depend on Stanley for so many day to day activities that most of us never know about. When the Board has questions and needs answers regarding where a septic valve might be, an irrigation head is located, or the Dry Boat Storage access, they ask Stanley. He is able to recall all locations and status of all of our operating assets. Thanks, Stanley! He pressure-washes our docks to make sure we aren’t walking through spider webs all the time like most people who live on the lake do. Thanks Stanley! Stanley closely monitors the lake level and makes sure that our docks get adjusted whenever they need it, and none of us residents have to give it a thought. Many times, when the weather changes over the weekend, Stanley will show up to check the docks and community. Thanks Stanley! Anytime there is a community event Stanley brings out tables and chairs, moves furniture around and sets up sound systems. Thanks Stanley! When things break around the neighborhood, he either fixes the problem or helps make sure the problem gets fixed. Thanks Stanley! At the holidays

he spends days pulling all our decorations out of storage and helping put a lot of it out including the giant deer, the lights on the tree trunks and so much more. Thanks Stanley!

Did you ever see the big pieces of trash laying on the roadside outside the gate that fell off a truck and then it was gone? Thanks, Stanley! When trees fall, he cleans up the debris to help keep our community looking nice. Often, he mulches tree limbs and uses the mulch to help upkeep our lakeside walking trail around the Peninsula. Thanks Stanley!

Do you ever use the lakeside pavilion or tennis courts?

Stanley makes sure the leaves are blown off and things are tidy anytime he knows it will be used. Thanks Stanley! We call Stanley our Harbour Master but he is actually our Jack of all Trades.

There is no doubt that he is a real asset to our great community, and we would be lost without him around here.

So next time you see him whizzing by on his UTV heading to his next neighborhood project, wave him down and say, “THANKS, STANLEY”!!!

Welcome New Neighbors!
