A bit of visible Saddle Ridge history is no more!

Have you been at the hall lately? If so you will notice that the ice rink and debris from the hockey shacks are gone. On the 9th of April the rink boards, the chain-link fence, and the huge pile from what was the hockey shacks were carefully removed by an excavation company. There are few residents left in Saddle Ridge that can remember what the area used to look like back in 1970, when our community enjoyed the rink and the skating area just west of the hockey shacks. The newly constructed rinks were frequently used in the coldest months of winter.

President’s Message – Coral Springs

Spring is in full swing in Coral Springs and summer is just around the corner. We are very anxious to continue with our community enhancement project of painting the fence along 68th Street starting on June 21, 2008. Residents in the effected area will be asked to repair their fences in preparation for the painting. Please give me a call if you would like to volunteer some of your time for a worthwhile project. It certainly has made a great difference to the look of our community. We can also look forward to some new trees being added throughout the green spaces.
