HOA A&E Committee is Moving Forward
Last month this publication introduced the Aesthetics and Environment Committee under the charter of the HOA and discussed some ideas for projects the Committee will work on. Your response has been gratifying and we will strive to live up to your expectations as we proceed on our mission to promote the protection and sustainability of the flora, fauna, air, and water, especially Tellico Lake, in our natural environment.
The Committee will host its inaugural workshop on January 16 when Randy Vogel will discuss native flowers and plants of East Tennessee and how you can use them to enhance your property and make it more sustainable. The workshop will be held from 10:00 AM to noon at the Yacht Club.
In early March, Arbor Day and Tennessee’s Tree Day will be celebrated in Tellico Village. The A&E Committee will host the occasion in conjunction with WATeR, the Arbor Day Foundation, and the Tennessee Environmental Council. Bare-root native trees that are already acclimated to Tennessee’s growing conditions will be available via an online ordering interface.
An Expo is planned later in March to help you bring your lawn, flower, and vegetable gardens back from winter dormancy. More information on these events will be provided on the HOA Event Calendar in Tellico Life.
Your HOA A&E Committee is still in the formative stages of development. Your ideas, needs, wants and desires are welcome. Our meetings are open to all Tellico Villagers. My email is: doriholt@gmail.com.
