Rain forecast postpones park ribbon cutting, garage sales

Two Canyon Lake POA events scheduled for today and this weekend have been postponed because of expected heavy rain.

The Vacation Park Ribbon Cutting originally scheduled for today has been rescheduled to Monday at 4:00 p.m. The Canyon Lake POA-sponsored Community Garage Sale which was to take place tomorrow and Sunday has also been postponed because of the inclement weather forecast. The Garage Sale event has been moved to March 25 and 26.

Those who had signed up to host a garage sale for the Community Garage Sale will have their original submissions added to the new map on the day they originally signed up for. Those who signed up for the February sale and would not like to be on the new map, will need to email activities@canyonlakepoa.com. Otherwise, they’ll need to do nothing to participate next month.

The community-wide garage sale allows residents to have a garage sale without obtaining a garage sale permit from the Canyon Lake POA. The last day to sign up to be on the map of garage sales and not have to pay for a garage sale permit is now March 17.

To sign up go to the Canyon Lake POA website and fill out the form at www.canyonlakepoa.com/communitysale.

Residents and their guests (who need to be called in per the usual procedure) are invited to purchase items at the various garage sales that will be taking place around the community.

Vacation Park has been partially open since August as the pump track opened to riders after the track was completed. However, other features of Vacation Park were not completed because of back-ordered playgrounds and exercise equipment. All have now been installed and the park is ready for its official ribbon cutting opening which will now take place Monday at 4:00 p.m.

The Canyon Lake POA membership voted on funding the creation of the park, which carried a price tag of about $2 million to transform the useless land into the park.
