Lenny's Corner

We will be coming around in October to replace furnace filters. Please remember that utility rooms are not to be used for storage under any circumstances and should be left locked at all times.

Please be respectful when driving through the property and remember the speed limit is 20 mph. We ask that you are considerate with the volume of your car radio when driving through the property. Please only park in marked parking spots or in front of
your garage (if you have one) and please obey the stop signs.

Please place cardboard/boxes in the cardboard recycling container in the back of the recycling center (large green container to the left of the regular newspaper/plastic bins). If you have any very large boxes or other items that you require assistance disposing of, please call the office for further instructions.

We all want a clean place to live! Keeping the property clean, disposing of garbage properly (including recycling), and loading of the “household” garbage compactor is the responsibility of all residents. Please do not throw garbage on the grounds or put garbage with the recycling (bins are marked clearly). Garbage is also NOT to be left in front of your apartment doors or on patios and balconies (animals can tear into it and spread it around the property), and garbage bags laying around are unsightly to other residents. If you have any questions or require a copy of the garbage & recycling guidelines they are available at the office.

THANK YOU!

Just a Few Little Items...

Hello Everyone,

We’ve been very busy at the leasing office this summer, so I’d like to take this opportunity to welcome all of the new residents.

“Thank You” to all of you who attended and/or helped with this year’s summer pool party. It was a nice day, the food was great, and everyone enjoyed themselves.

Now that it is “Back to School” time, please drive slowly and watch for children as they wait for the bus in the morning and get off the bus in the afternoon.

You are all probably aware that I’m going on maternity leave soon. I’d like to introduce Sarah who will be helping Darla full time in the office until I return.

Time-Warner has been making changes to their basic channels; if you need a new channel guide please stop by the office!

Don’t forget we now have a new community bulletin board at the mail center. We will be happy to post items for you.

Have a Great Fall & Go Bills!

Welcome Summer & all of our new residents!

I’d like to thank everyone for their support and patience during our recent sealing and striping of the roads & parking areas. The coordination of this exercise is always a challenge but the result is worth the inconvenience.

The Hammocks at Orchard Park now has a Facebook Page. We are posting Hammocks events, pictures of the property, etc. Check out the pictures of our new fountain and benches in and around the pond. We welcome you to “friend” us!

Just a reminder: Please drive carefully and at a slow speed through the complex as there are many residents out walking or on bikes this time of year. The speed limit on the property is 20 mph.
The pool is open! Please obey the pool rules and the lifeguards instructions in order for everyone to have a safe and enjoyable season at the pool. Children under the age of 16 are not allowed in the hot tub for safety reasons. Parents please stay on site and supervise your children. ALL residents and accompanying guests must sign in with the lifeguard on duty - there is a $3.00 fee per guest for a one day pass (anyone not a registered resident is required to pay a guest fee each visit). You can purchase a season guest pass (for one guest, ie. Grandchild that visits every wknd) for only $30 from the lifeguards or office staff. Please see page 4 of the newsletter for pool rules and we will be delivering updated rules to your door.

Our summer social/pool party will be held on a Saturday, July 24th from 3-5 pm. This is a family friendly event for all Hammocks Residents. Please stop by to have some food and refreshments and join in the fun! Anyone who would like to volunteer to help, or offer suggestions/ideas to email Leasingconsultant@thehammocksatorchardpark.com

We will be having a Patio Decorating Contest during the month of July. Residents are encouraged to be creative and colorful! The judging and awarding of prizes will take place on August 3rd.

If you have any large household items to dispose of (ie. Furniture, mattresses, bed frames, etc.), please call Waste Management at 716-495-5000 to arrange pick-up/payment.

Don’t forget to refer a friend to move into the Hammocks - have them put your name on the back of the application and once they sign a minimum 1 year lease you will receive a $200 referral fee.

The office will be closed for holidays on Sunday & Monday July 4 & 5.

Happy Fourth of July!
Jen & Staff
