Early Fall Updates

Please don't forget the Home Owner's Association on Thursday Sept. 16th at 7 pm in the clubhouse!!


Dear Tomahawk Creek Residents,

There are some fun social events on the horizon. More info is to come, but for now, just save the dates:

Saturday October 2

Residents' Season Finale at the Pool

Sunday October 3rd

Doggie Swim. To be held in the afternoon.

EVERY Saturday, 10 am – 12 pm, Clubhouse

Coffee Social

On a more serious note:

We still have plenty of smoke detectors. Don't take the chance that yours could fail in the event of a fire or even heavy smoke. They cost only $16 and are available in the clubhouse.

Residents are encouraged to test their water shut off valves.

Why? If any leak or water emergency occurs in your residence this is the only way to shut off the water to your residence and limit damage to your personal possessions as well as damage to your neighbor's unit. These valves have a limited life and are nearing the end of it. Several residents have had problems.

The Procedure: In the room with your water heater there is a knob that protrudes from the wall. (It looks like a faucet handle for a garden hose.) Turn the knob all the way to the right. If it keeps spinning and won't stop, it is broken. If it does stop, turn on the water in the bathroom sink and bathtub. If the water does not stop running within 5 minutes, it is broken.

Now What? If it is broken, call a plumber of your choice or Mike for Tiehen maintenance ($100 to $150). The water to the entire building will need to be shut off when they come, so call Mike Carroll (913-663-1103) for help with coordinating that. If it is not broken, be sure to continue to test it periodically.

Dog Rules

1. Dogs must be on leashes. This is to prevent potential dog fights or attacks and it protects our poochies from cars, as well.

2. Picking up after your dog is a must.

3. If you see an animal without its owner, feel free to call animal control at 913-648-8901.
