Summer Recap

Whew! A lot of fun was had, and memories made. Slip n' sliding, wiffle balling, frisbee (and 9-hole) golfing, boating and floating in the lake... Kids (of all ages) learned to surf, foil, paddleboard, pickleball and more...we shared meals (and beverages) with neighbors and enjoyed yummy food and drinks at "The Point"...and our kids spent all of their money buying candy and popsicles at the store. A HUGE thank you to the Fun Committee and HOA staff for all their hard work to entertain, engage--and clean up after--all of us throughout this incredible season.

We enjoyed Happy Hours, Bingo, karaoke nights, 4^th of July/Canada Day fireworks, crafts for the kids, s’mores at the fire, pool parties and most of all Sports Weekend! Thank you to everyone who volunteered to help run events throughout Sports Weekend – we couldn't have done it without you! – and to everyone who donated items to the silent auction, bid on items, made/purchased lemonade and bracelets, and donated cash.

Our fundraising campaign to “Feed the Oroville Community” (benefiting the Oroville Food Bank and No Paws Left Behind) was very successful again, raising $29,000!!

Thank you Fun Committee…Kristin Conklin, Jami Rice, Mike Elhard, Mike Moug, Tina-Marie Bradford, Danae Hordyk, Rhonda Hinkley and Marty Wachtel…for all of the planning, organizing, and hard work! Plans are already in the works for next year. It's going to be another great one!

Policy Reminders: Rentals, Renovations & more

RENTALS: According to our Rules & Regulations, the ONLY rentals allowed at Veranda Beach must be through an HOA-approved rental agency. (The current list of approved agencies can be found here.) *Please note: Vortex VIP dba Veranda Cottages is NOT currently an approved rental agency. More information about renting your cottage is available on our website.

RENOVATIONS: As stated in the Architectural Guidelines, "The objective of the review process is to promote the harmonious development of the neighborhood, preserve the character and integrity of the community and to enhance the HOA owner's investment". In 2024, the Landscape Committee developed a similar set of guidelines.

Make sure to get in touch with Rhonda before undertaking any construction or modifications to the exterior of your cottage, the landscaping (including patios and driveways) in your yard, or any other exterior changes to ensure you have the required approvals in place!

...and MORE: We also want to remind the community about our Construction Policy. This policy outlines everything from sand control to the weight of vehicles allowed on our community roads, and more. If you are about to build or renovate – it is a must read. All HOA adopted policies can be found on our website.

See Something? Say Something

Because we don’t have the capacity and personnel to monitor everything happening in the community at all times, we rely on the community to follow the guidelines we have in place, and let us know as questions and concerns arise, so we may investigate and remedy those issues.

Please refer to the policies found on our HOA website: www.verandabeachhomeowners.com and contact us at board@vbhoawa.com with any questions or concerns.

Cheers! Thank you for another incredible summer at the lake.

We wish you a wonderful fall season!
