Impact evidence

Programs described in its return (4)
- $986 spent. The association's farmhouse is the primary residence of of our caretaker, who maintains the association's property. In 2025 the association invested in a new battery powered push mower and leave blower. This will not only support the work efforts but also environmental friendly for our beautiful grounds.
- $5,000 spent. The association's roads need regular work after winters with significant snow. In 2025, we resurfaced many of our gravel roads.
- $167 spent. As the association resides in a rural community we are reliant on the local volunteer ambulance. Without street lights, we invested in reflective numbers for each cottage to make it easier for first responders to identify the cottage.
- $66,437 spent. PART 3 - Section 4d - Reflected here the normal operational expenses associated with maintaining the FLP common property
