July 2023

Hi there,

How is your summer going? We hope well.

Please welcome the newest member of the community: Poppy Eleanor! Congratulations to parents Ashley and Adam #24!

Your Board Representatives are looking for volunteers as follows:

• To form a Rules Committee so we can formalize the rules of the community
• To help conduct weekly tests of the Pump Station Generator

Please reply to this email if you are interested.

If you missed Parks on Tap in Gorgas Park this past weekend, you still have Parks on Tap at Pretzel Park from July 26-30. It's great fun, and both dog and kid-friendly!

And, coming up in October is Bike Philly. Details below.

Regards,

Your Roxborough Reserve Representatives

ARC Submissions

When you submit an ARC (Architectural Request for Change) form to Madison Parke for changes to your property (e.g., fences, patios, walkways, front property landscaping, etc.), let your representatives know. That way we can be on the lookout, ensure nothing gets misplaced, and be ready to review your request.
