Cross Creek Community Community Garage Sale
Posted on Jun 1st, 2023
It is time to Clean Out all your un-used items
Cross Creek Community is holding its Community Garage Sale
Saturday, June 24, 2023
8:00 am – 2:00 pm
(If it Rains it will be held Saturday, July 1, 2023)
Tips and Tricks
1. Gather supplies in advance. Prior to the yard sale, have or buy sticker labels, hanging labels, pens, and a container (fanny pack-type thing or large wallet) to hold your money. Have at least $100 in ones and fives for change. Use a picnic blankets to lay on the ground and set your items on that so you can set things on the grass/ground without getting them dirty. If you have a table that is a better option.
2. Prep as much as possible. Make sure to put prices on your stuff prior to the morning of in case a surprising number of people will show up early, and you don’t want to be frantically trying to label items during that initial rush.
3. Arrange items in a way that makes sense. It helps if people aren’t just sifting through loads of stuff and can go right to the areas that hold the most interest for them.
4. Keep an eye out. The not-so-fun part of yard sales is thefts happen. It sounds obvious, but it’s worth a reminder. Lock your doors, have someone watching the sale at all times, and keep your items in as small and manageable space as possible.
5. Call in a helper. You need at least two people to run a yard sale, in case one has to go inside for some reason. Also, it’s more fun to have company.
6. Set out a mirror. If you’re selling things like jackets and sunglasses that people might want to try on, it’s considerate to pull out a mirror so they can check out what they look like in their potential new product.
7. Set up a 25-cent box. Some things don’t require their own labels. Feel free to pile all the inexpensive odds-and-ends into one big box and let people sift through them on their own.
8. Divide clothing by price. If possible hang outerwear and nicer pieces. Be sure to label all pieces with individual tags. Place sweaters, t-shirts and more casual items into bins.
9. Have a contingency plan. If you do not sell your items, decide which charity you want to donate it to and take it there.
10. Make it fun. It can seem like a long morning. Set up a radio and take this opportunity to meet your neighbors.

Implementation of ZOOM to Attended 2023 Board of Directors Meetings Virtually
Posted on Jan 22nd, 2023
Greetings Cross Creek I Community Residents,
Your 2023 HOA Board of Directors is implementing another method for you to be able to attend the Homeowners Association Board of Directors meetings (as a pilot project) in an effort to increase resident participation. If you are interested in attending any of these meetings virtually, please utilize the "Contact Us" option on this webpage to send us the email address you wish to receive the ZOOM link.
Please be advised that since this is currently a pilot project, we will be using the free option of zoom which limits all zoom meetings to 40 minutes. As a result, there may be a possibility that you will miss the last 20 minutes of the meeting if the full 60 minutes are utilized.
Note: The success of this project will determine the continued use and full use of zoom capabilities.
