What a season!

We have been very busy before closing out this successful year 2010! 

Summer Sun Pageant:  This was our 1st annual pageant!  What a great success.  The girls had so much fun dressing up for one night and enjoying a very laid back evening of being beautiful. (Of course they are always beautiful but how neat it was not seeing them in their bathing suits and goggles for a change!)  They looked so gorgeous in their dresses and heels.  We had vendor booths, professional photography, music and a live announcer Chris Rice to tell us a little bit about each girl.  Next year will be just as much fun-come join us! Enter your gal to help support the pool!  Each pageant contestant also enjoyed riding in the Fall fest Parade in Barboursville.  This is open to any girl-she does not have to be a resident of Guyan Estates to Participate.  Total profits (after all expenses: $310)

Labor Day Dog Swim:   We wanted to close out the pool with a  little bit of fun.  The pool went to the dogs for a while.  Did they have fun! Dogs jumping from diving boards and doing the doggie paddle!  We saw dogs chasing their tennis balls and splashing it up having a rip roaring time.  Dogs of all sizes, colors and shapes--we welcomed them to our pool for an evening of 4 legged fun!

Clubhouse Parties:  This is something new we are trying out.  We had a couple of these Clubhouse parties for different age groups.  This is giving us many ideas on things we can do in the future too!  You can rent a D.J for your next birthday party for you or your child.  We also have some fun 80's black light decorations.  Stay tuned for upcoming news on the Community Building turning into a very scary sight on Halloween Weekend for a Clubhouse Halloween Party! It will be SPOOKtacular!

Hot Dog Sale:    Biannually the Guyan Estates Community has a rummage sale throughout the subdivision.  Many houses participate in selling..LOTS of people come and shop!  The Pool Board uses this opportunity to earn money so that we can pay bills through the winter months.  They worked very hard selling hot dogs, snacks and drinks on Saturday October 2nd and raised $1368 in profits! Hooray Guyan Estates Swim Club!  We encourage all residents to not sell baked goods/foods during this time so that we can keep the pool and community building afloat,   Thanks to all of you that donated goods, money and time!

 Hershell Marshall and his team continue to get the vinyl siding installed on the community building.  Wow it sure does change things! Have you checked it out lately?  There are also changes going on inside the building.  New vinyl flooring is being installed in the bathrooms & kitchen...details later to come.  Please think of your community-this pool and this building that need continuous maintenance and attention to stay open and supporting to YOUR community.  This is YOURS-lets work together so that we can continue to have these amenities for our subdivision.  Rent the building for your next baby shower or scout meeting.  Rent the pool for your next celebration. USE these wonderful privileges available! Did you know there's also a beautiful park in Guyan Estates to play?  Many of our neighbors worked hard since the 1960's keeping these luxuries within our community. Come and get involved-join the board, volunteer your time, lend a hand or a supply-we'd love to have you!

A BIG THANK YOU TO OUR POOL BOARD FOR MAKING THIS ALL HAPPEN! (& their spouses who also donate their time and services too!)
