Attention Landscape Lovers! Each month the Beautification Committee will be selecting one yard in the subdivision as the “Yard of the Month”. The selection will be based on curb appeal, creativity, color, grass and design. Each 12 month period, the winner’s names will be put in a hat and three (3) names will be drawn to win gift cards. Let’s all take pride in our yards and we will all be winners.
Each month the five residents in yellow on the Yard of Month Committee each drive through Lakeview Estates by themselves and writes down four or five homes for votes. They then get together and list the homes that each had picked for the month. Most of the time there are certain homes that get multiple votes. This is the home that they pick for “Yard of Month”.
E-mail any recommendations to any of the above for your suggestions for “Yard of Month”
