All are invited to our next meeting, The Woodbrooke Open Directors Meeting, Wednesday, September 17, 2025 at 6:30 P.M. in our Community Room. 

Our pool is open for the season.  Please observe all pool rules and courtyard rules posted.  You should leave the pool immediately when lightning is near-by.   The rules are posted outside the Community Room doors and included in the WB Community Rules document. You can view our rules document on our website: woodbrookemaumee.net.  The majority of the rules are in place for everyone's safety.  As owners-all of us can help enforce safety rules in the pool and on the pool deck.  It is too easy for somebody to get hurt in the excitement and fun that is part of the activities around the pool.  If there is an emergency, there is a land-line phone mounted on the wall inside the Community Room sliding doors.  Please use the bathroom in the Community Room.  If you notice something that needs serviced or re-supplied in the restroom, call the Property Manager or notify a Director.  Our courtyard grass is usually trimmed on Thursdays-depending on weather.  Our pool is swept each week, sometime twice weekly as needed.  At times, the pool may need chemical balancing during the day-but most times, this is done in the evening to allow the pool to stay open.  Please understand when the "Pool Closed" signs are posted-stay out of the pool until the service is completed. Owners are allowed a maximum of six guests to use our pool-you must be present on the pool deck for your guests to use the pool. Guests need to park in the overflow area opposite of the carport on the Salisbury Rd. side of the complex.  If you don't recognize somebody that is using our pool, you can politely ask them who they are-remember, our pool is maintained with your monthly assessment.  It is a great amenity, Let all of us work to keep it safe, clean, and available to use.   If there is any issue with the pool or pool use, please contact a Director.  Any injury at our pool must be reported to our Property Manager or a Director.  Thank you and enjoy!

The Board has decided to remove and remove and replace the dead plantings around the complex.  All dead plantings at the front of the building have been replaced, with plantings for the courtyard area to be determined later this summer.  The putting green area is being -re-imagined as a landscape/small landscape area and the Board is still looking at different ideas at this time.   The Board had a service provider make a presentation to the Board and owners at the meeting to describe the condition of our roof and the likely costs in replacing the roof.  This project is something that will impact all owners and the Board wants to provide notice as soon as possible since the replacement will involve an assessment to all owners.  The Board will gather proposals and information on ways to finance this replacement and present to owners so all of us can be prepared for the project and funding for the the project.  More to follow....ask a Director about information on this.....owners will be involved in the decision making process.

Have a question or concern? Contact us anytime by phone or email. We're here to help you with anything you need, from maintenance requests to community feedback.  With that said, please ask children to refrain from running through the garden area.  There are many plantings in this area that are fragile and are damaged if steped on.  Please use the grass  area in the Rec Area to have fun.  Thank you!  Also, it was brought to the attention of the Board by an owner that we have owners/residents that are using the laundry facilities, but not cleaning up after use.  Please wipe up any spills on the machines or floor.  Please clean out the lint traps on the dryers after each use.  This area is for use by all our owners/residents-please help to keep it clean and report any mechanical issues to the Property Manager right away so the equipment can be repaired and return to use.  Thank you!  Finally-Thank you to our volunteers for the work on the building and landscape areas-your efforts are enjoyed by all of us!
