The typical celebrations like Cinco de Mayo with colorful decorations to brighten up your home or patio, Mother’s Day, a must have for all mothers each year. Metal Health Awareness and Memorial Day celebration.
Here in Towne Park, our residents celebrate in so many ways….as we come together to clean out our garages, closets, and backyards to have our annual “Spring Community Yard Sale” on May 17th from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM. The residents who don’t want to open their garages and sell their treasures, donate to the Social Committee and help our kitty! Pool activity at both pools bring joy to young and old, “The Aqua Honeys” start their exercises for anyone to enjoy. Our Annual Community Pool Opening party will be hosted on May 23rd from 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM at the East Pool with Frito Pies, Pizza and Refreshments. Come visit your neighbors, enjoy food, and maybe take a dip in the pool….

INFORMATION FROM THE FOOTHILLS AREA COMMAND
INFORMATION FROM THE FOOTHILLS AREA COMMAND
In the issue for May from our area substation, a message from Chief Medina mentions that APD is working in conjunction with a team of volunteers from Sandia National Labs on creating an innovative model to determine where to use surveillance cameras to combat crime. Based on 5 years of crime data, they have created a model that shows the City exactly where a camera should be placed, at what height, and at what direction to most effectively capture a crime on camera. The model also is assisting the City in modifying placement of existing cameras.
ON THE HOMEFRONT
Recently, contents from packages taken out of two cars were left scattered in a nearby street. The perpetrator must not have liked what was in the boxes from Amazon. Once again, these cars had not been locked.
A reminder to residents that we have 2 different companies “policing” our Towne Park Community every night.
1) Signal 88 Security drives through all our streets 3 times every night between 7pm and 5am. If a resident notices something worthy of reporting, do so at the 1-505-570-5105 number. Reports are sent to Jim daily.
2) Another company hired by HOAMCO comes in nightly to check on illegal parking of cars.
WE LOOK OUT FOR EACH OTHER! 242 COPS (2677) or 911

SPRUCING UP YOUR HOME?
ACC POINT OF VIEW
Dear Neighbors, it’s time to get excited about sprucing up our yard game. Colorful flowers in the ground or in flower pots really add to the general curb appeal of your house. Don’t just do it when you are going to sell your house but for yourself, so you can be happy and proud of the appearance of your Home! On that note, please clean out your back yard of any dead weeds and garbage. We don’t want any incidents with fire spreading, due to the close proximity of our houses. Take time to enjoy Gardening, it is beneficial to your health and to your neighborhood!! Happy Planting!!

Towne Park Approved Paint and Stucco Color Information
Since Home Depot moved their paint department they have tossed out all paper files, now you have to give them the Towne Park office phone # 505-291-8379. That number will pull up all our colors. I have attached the colors here for you to save. You will also find this information in the Towne Park Clubhouse Office.
Towne Park Approved Paint Colors Chico tan is for block walls. El Ray Bamboo 105 is the stucco color only if you do a total repaint or re-stucco.
For a touchup, you will need to do a color match of your current stucco color.
