LKN Remodelers Monthly Meeting Update

"2010 Annual Island Clean Up and Picnic"

page3-1001-full

Bring the kids!!!



Time: Saturday, September 11th from 8:45 am to 2:00 pm

Location:
Hager Creek Access Area - Map - McKendree Road, off of Brawley School Road, Lake Norman

Speaker/Program: Our 3rd annual Island Cleanup

We suggest you arrive at the McKendree Road ramp (Hager Creek Access Area) before nine, to allow the boats to depart at 9:00 am.  Once we have all expected attendees collected, we shall ferry them to the island, and work clean-up for an hour or so.  Then we shall hop back in the boats, and cruise to a yet-to-be-disclosed site, where we shall have an LKN Remodelers picnic.  If we can manage this, we hope to be back at the ramp around 1:30pm (2:00pm at the latest), to let everyone make their way home.

Please come visit LKN remodelers and join in our efforts to support the community.

FYI
 
I’ve noticed some articles and comments the past week that are misleading to our builders here in NC.  Please see the email below and particularly the highlighted section.  North Carolina’s rules have not been altered with the EPA’s recent announcement.  There was an article in the Observer that made it sound like renovators in NC had until 9/30 to register for a class or 12/31 to be certified.  Not so.  I will forward any additional information I find.  I have a couple calls out to ask some questions.  I will forward on anything new I learn.  Nicole

The world changed for remodelers on April 22, 2010, the day that the Lead: Renovation, Repair and Painting regulation took effect. Remodelers now have to change the way they work in pre-1978 homes and child-occupied facilities. Learn how the removal of the Homeowner Opt Out provision may affect your business, what you need to do if you are not yet certified, how to market yourself as lead certified, and answers to the many questions remodelers continue to ask about how to work with the regulation.

Congratulations to the winners of the 2009 "Best of the Lake" design competition.
The 2009 Island Cleanup was fun. Thanks to everyone that volunteered their time to brave the cold and come out and help clean up our adopted island.
