(No "Trickers" allowed!)  We also have an annual multi-family garage sale usually in the spring.  If you are in to sports, there are always people looking for tennis partners and pickup teams of basketball.  Maybe a book club is more your speed.  Check out the Activities Forum in the <A HREF="id61.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Community Noteboard"><U>Community Noteboard</U></A>.</div> <bR> <div> Keep and eye out for the <A HREF="id57.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Harpeth Holler Archive"><U>Harpeth Holler</U></A>, our neighborhood newsletter published several times a year, and be sure to keep up with this web site, especially on such pages as the <A HREF="id42.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Sheffield News Blog"><U>News Blog</U></A> and the <A HREF="id61.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Community Noteboard"><U>Community Noteboard</U></A>.  Please schedule time the third week of April to attend our Association <A HREF="id50.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Annual Meeting Minutes"><U>General Meeting</U></A>.  You will get notification of this in the mail every year.  We need your presence or proxy to make our quorum.</div> <bR> <div> We think you'll find this a "homeowner participation" community and your voice is always welcome.  Be sure to use one of the <A HREF="id40.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Sheffield HOA"><U>hotlines</U></A> to get in touch with your Association Board if you have a question or notice something amiss in the neighborhood.  The board is here to maintain the common areas, among other things. Our mission is to continue to keep the neighborhood as desirable place to live as possible.  We also oversee the Architectural Control Committee, so be sure to notify us of any <A HREF="http://www.sheffieldhoa.com/downloads/SHOA_ACC_change_form.pdf" TARGET="_blank" TITLE="http://www.sheffieldhoa.com/downloads/SH"><U>exterior change</U></A> in plenty of time before your big (or little) project is scheduled to start.  While we are at it, you should become familiar with our <A HREF="id46.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Governing Documents and Rules"><U>Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions</U></A> and the <A HREF="id46.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Governing Documents and Rules"><U>Bylaws</U></A>.  </div> <bR> <div> Again, welcome, and be sure to introduce yourselves as you see us around and about.</div> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
