CIRCLE C RANCH The Official Publication of the Circle C Homeowner's Association Volume 8, Number 12 December 2011 www.circlecranch.info CIRCLE C COMMUNITY CENTER & NEW POOL UPDATE Submitted by Jason Bram, CCHOA President As you can tell by driving by the new Circle C Community Center (CCCC) site, a lot has taken place at the corner of La Crosse and Spruce Canyon. Our Community Center and Recreational Pool are close to being complete and we hope to open the Community Center in January. Look DECEMBER for the latest information on our web site, as the actual date may change (see www.circlecranch. DATES info). We want to thank Clayton Elementary and all of our residents that live in the area for their patience and putting up with the added noise and traffic. It will soon be worth it. DECEMBER 3RD The Community Center will house our HOA offices and should be able to accommodate our CCHOA Annual Holiday Party Annual HOA Meeting held in March of each year. We have planned for over-flow, too. There (see inside for more details) are two smaller executive conference rooms, a huge covered patio, a spacious hallway, and an outdoor meeting area behind the building, all of which can be incorporated for an over-flow sized DECEMBER 16-18 crowd. We can show out door or in door movies, which is a very popular tradition in Circle C. CCHOA Holiday The large meeting room can be divided into 3 smaller meeting rooms. This will provide a great Lighting Contest place to host parties, have group meetings and host any other get together you may have planned. The final pool design reflects a need for a seasonal recreational pool, which is only open during the warmer months, as it is not heated. However, it has everything else a kid could want, or an adult. It’s roughly half the surface area of our current lap swimming pool, but it has very little deep water. It was designed for a variety of recreational activities, including a water slide, adult lounging area, a very wide beach entry with bubblers and sprayers to keep the water cool, a broad area suitable for water volleyball, multiple steps, LED lights, and a unique Splash Pad with specialized water toys. In the big picture, we think the Community Center and new Recreational Pool put Circle C Ranch back at the top of the list of most desirable communities in Austin. Our biggest features are: our close-in location to Austin (10 miles down MOPAC), the airport (15 miles), high performing schools (Circle C Child Development Center, Kiker, Clayton, Gorzycki and Bowie), shopping (Escarpment Village, Parkside Village, HEB, etc.), two swimming pools (one heated all year pool for programming and one recreational pool), and our own community center. This puts us well ahead of Steiner Ranch, Bel Terra, High Pointe, and any other master planned community in the Central Texas area. Copyright © 2011 Peel, Inc.
