E-MAIL NEWSLETTER
We have shifted the delivery of this newsletter to e-mail and will only send paper copies to residents who request it. This change will result in significant postage savings and more timely communications for our subdivision.  We will still send postcards out on occasion for key events (Annual Meeting, Cookout, etc.).  If you would prefer to continue receiving a paper copy of the newsletter, please contact any Board member (listed below) or send a note to hawthornehills@gmail.com requesting this. 

ANNUAL COOKOUT
Our annual cookout is scheduled for Sunday, August 27, from 4 PM to 7 PM.     Hot dogs, brats, side dishes, and chips will be provided. Be sure to bring your own chairs.  Updated neighborhood directories will be available.

Other activities will include: volleyball, fishing, live music, a tennis clinic, and a chance to visit with your neighbors!!

VOLUNTEER NEEDED
Do you walk regularly in the park?  We need a volunteer to help us replace park lights when they burn out.  If you are interested, please contact any Board member or e-mail us at hawthornehills@gmail.com.
