TOWNE PARK SOCIAL COMMITTEE

During the month of April, flowers start to peek out as Spring is in full swing. Our month starts out with April Fool’s Day which gives us the opportunity to tell jokes and pull pranks to family and friends. Here in Towne Park, we can enjoy warmer temperatures with walking, gardening, fly a kite, exercise or plan a picnic.

Our Annual Easter Egg Hunt is also a time to bring our kiddos to the Clubhouse Park to play with our new bunnies, get goody bags and drinks, play new games with yummy prizes, and the all important egg hunt where the bunnies will hide 500 eggs to the delight of toddlers and older kids. Winners of toddler area and older kids will be awarded a prize. Come in your comfy clothes or Easter best on Saturday April 12th from 10:00 AM to Noon. Also, don’t forget your easter basket!!

Our other event in April will be a Movie Night. We will be hosting Sonic The Hedgehog3 which is an animated movie where the good guys battle the mad scientists. This movie is the third installment of this loved series. We will provide plain and flavored popcorn and drinks so mark your calendar and plan on coming Friday, April 25th at 6:30 PM in the Clubhouse.
Enjoy April in Towne Park!

NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH

INFORMATION FROM THE FOOTHILLS AREA COMMAND

Commander Aaron Jones in the March newsletter cautions us to be wary of phishing scams during this tax period. Beware of emails, calls or texts pretending to be the IRS. The IRS never contacts taxpayers via phone, email, or text demanding payment. Monitor your accounts by regularly checking your bank and tax accounts for suspicious activity. Chief Harold Medina shares with us the information that during this first two months of this year, there has been a 40% decrease in auto thefts compared to the same time frame last year. He reiterates that there has been a recent uptick in thefts of specific Honda models in our Northeast and Foothills area.

ALBUQUERQUE JOURNAL, Monday, February 24, 2025. A new app “Tip411” allows for residents to report crimes/drug activity anonymously followed by anonymous conversations with deputies for a faster and more effective response. This is a free app and is available on Google Play store/ iTunes App Store/ BSCO website.

SPRUCING UP YOUR HOME?

ACC POINT OF VIEW

ACC POINT OF VIEW
We are looking at upgrading our front gates. They are old, and the bricks are crumbling. I am inviting anyone with Artistic, Architectural or Landscape Design experience to volunteer their talents on a committee dedicated to that project. We have so many talented people in Towne Park and we need you! We want to create an eye catching, welcoming entrance to our beautiful Community.
We are also encouraging Residents to upgrade to Xeriscape. Your yard looks good all year long, and you save on water and money!. Green Summit does a great job, they give us a great price because we do many at once. Depending on the number of plants, boulders, and size of yard the average price is $1,500-$1,600.00. You can't beat this! Green Summit can do a free Estimate for you. It's worth looking into. You can Call Jim at the office or drop by and add your name to the list.
Thank you all!!
