Stuff!

Hello neighbors,


Our LOST & FOUND table is getting quite full of towels and goggles and other bits and bobs. Take a look next time you’re at the pool and see if you’ve left anything behind.


Also, we have two large pots and one large speaker (most likely broken) that we need to get rid of. If you have use for a pot or a potentially broken speaker, please email board@miahomeowners.com and let us know.

Fourth of July 2023

We have designed some Montevideo t-shirts for our Fourth of July festivities this year. Shirts can be ordered through our website shop for $20 each. Orders must be in by June 23. We will buy a few extra to sell the day of the events, but to guarantee you get this year’s shirt, order now.

NICK OLSEN 4 ON THE 4TH RUN

Pool Opening 2023

Hello Montevideo!

The pool will be opening Memorial Day weekend!

Saturday, May 27 1:00-8:00
Sunday, May 28 1:00-8:00
Monday, May 29 1:00-8:00

Saturday, June 3 1:00-8:00
Sunday, June 4 1:00-8:00

Saturday, June 10 1:00-8:00
Sunday, June 11 1:00-8:00

Everyday beginning June 12 the hours will be 1:00-8:00.

As you know, we have had work going on in the pool house to remodel our bathrooms and office. There was a hold up with some of the permits, so construction has halted; however it should resume soon. At this time there is a construction fence around the building. We ask that neighbors please avoid this area completely to stay safe.

Because the pool house bathrooms are not complete or usable, we will be allowing those using the pool to use the clubhouse bathrooms as long as the clubhouse is not rented. We ask that you please dry off completely before going into the clubhouse bathrooms. And, parents, please supervise your children up at the clubhouse bathrooms. The clubhouse will not be open for hanging out inside; only the bathrooms will be available for use.

We will also have a portable toilet and sink in the parking lot area in case the clubhouse bathrooms are not available. They will be locked and only usable by pool attendees and lifeguards. Due to the limited bathroom facilities, the BBQ/kiddie pool area cannot be rented until we finish construction.

Thank you for understanding. We know this isn’t an ideal scenario for opening the pool, but we know people are anxious to swim and use our shared property.
