Neighborhood Picnic

In past years, Pine Lake Estates Homeowners Association organized a neighborhood picnic at Ebright Park. This usually takes place in early September, just after Labor Day.  These are a great time to meet and engage with the other homeowners in a very friendly setting. The association is currently looking for a volunteer to organize the annual picnic.

Social Connections and Neighborhood Get-togethers

Over the years neighbors have opened their homes to neighborhood get-togethers and parties.  These have been a lot of fun and an excellent way to get to know your neighbors and introduce yourselves.  

Anyone wishing to have a get-together is encouraged.  And while the board does not provide resources for the party, we will be glad to broadcast the invitation. If you are interested in hosting a party or any other social event for the neighbors, please contact one of the board members.
