December 7, 2020

This past weekend many of you may have received a “newsletter” from an anonymous group that, at first, looked like it had come from the HOA Board. This is because this group used the HOA logo (without permission from the designer) and HOA return address labels to make it look official just to fool you. But I know from talking to many of you already that the ruse didn’t work. Such childish tricks usually don’t.

We don’t know who sent this letter, because once again the authors didn’t have the fortitude to sign it. It has the same characteristics as the deplorable “newsletter” that was stuffed in mailboxes this summer. Those women were identified and reported to authorities, and maybe that’s why the letter was mailed this time. But it contained similar disparaging comments, mistruths, misrepresentations, and flat-out lies, as did the letter this summer.

We have more important things to think about on the eve of our Annual Meeting. We have accomplished so much over the past year, in spite of the daunting challenges the pandemic presented to us. The Board will be discussing many of these successes at the meeting Thursday night, and we have more challenges to address as we move into 2021.

We’ve seen what divisiveness can do to our country at the national level. We don’t want that divisive spirit in our own community. Let’s work together to continue the strides we have made.

See you Thursday night!

Respectfully,
Bill Warkentin
President, Board of Directors, MHE HOA
