Shh … Things are happening quietly at Hidden Valley Lake.
We got a new general manager.
There was a coup d'état on the board of directors.
Our environmental officer was moved out.
Our food and beverage manager was fired.
Our golf pro was fired.
A bartender was fired and then another quit.
Citizens are quite upset and starting to speak up.
But you, you haven’t heard this because the powers that be are censoring free speech.
It’s time for the dirty laundry to be aired.
It’s time for the news media to start asking questions.
Questions about millions of dollars in reserves collected from the members and sitting there doing nothing when it should be used for the reason it was collected or returned to the members.
Questions about silencing free speech.
We may live in a homeowners association but we are still in the U.S.A.

Equal opportunity includes education, health care, nutrition and even housing.
Sometimes we need to look ahead. Those inner city kids who have no hope and feel as if they are not part of society, are also citizens, we are wasting intellectual capital.
Also, we need to create schools for skilled workers such as mechanics, electricians, carpenters and plumbers. Not all students neither want nor need college.
If we allow poor children to get a poor education, they will be poor citizens.
Often, poor citizens become drags on society, as convicts and welfare recipients.
It is a shame that the largest inner citizen employers are often drug dealers.
We need to fight for our youth, all of them, as they are the future our children must live with.
